Big 10 seeding

[Clarion167]

I am not a fan of Ryan and average officials. That being said his team bring two interesting situations to the Bigs seeding Meeting.

First issue is Snyder. Limited Big 10 action but hey he is off conquering the world and I believe he deserves #1 and possibly Hodge consideration.

Second and more troubling is BoJo. Very limited Big10 action and now he Avoids a big 10 challenge not because of injury as much as match was out of reach so team did not need him. Sorry he does not deserve a #1seed, he will barely qualify for an RPI ranking. Unfair to the guys competing every week.

I could also discuss the omnipresent Downey but he is too big of a star for this thread. And where is Ames anyway?

Doubtful Snyder wins the Hodge.

Bo will not be close to having an RPI.

That was total bull crap what Ohio State pulled last night holding Bo Jordan out against Hall...Jordan had a very tough time against the Iowa guy and won by 1 point...Hall will beat the Iowa guy by at least 5 or 6 points next time....OHIO STATE WAS PROTECTING BO SEED AND THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN SEEDING....There was NOTHING wrong with him....They say ankle...Yea right !!!! He was fine after the Iowa match.....This is going to back fire on them and Mark will make sure.....He and the PSU Coaches were pissed....

We'll know more next week if Ryan is still keeping him out. I highly doubt that though

 

[GOLDBANGER]

As a fan, I would have been upset last night that they didn't put their best team on the mat against a main rival. Don't think a sold out crowd wanted to see that dumpster fire last night.

I will never go to a hyped dual as long as Tom Ryan is coach I don't think this dude cares about duals or what people pay or do in order to make it to these duals!!!!

Hw will wrestle next week...He don't have to wrestle Mark Hall !!!! PURE SLIME BALL MOVE AND WHAT REALLY BAD IS IT'S GOING TO WORK FOR SEEDING !!!!

O yea i knew exactly was Ryan was doing as soon as Jordan didn't come out...I WOULD BE PISSED AY RYAN TOO IF I PAID....THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DO IT !!!! HARD TO PROVE THOUGH....

Spyker types so fast that he always hits the CAPS LOCK button by accident in his rants.

 

[James Toney]

Maybe it wasn't Tom's decision? Micah probably told him it's not worth it, after 7 minutes of pain form Zain? Haha

The fastest way for the coach to become a fan is to do what the fans want.

I always suspected it was voice to text, and his phone just gave up after a while and went to all caps.

Here's how PSU seeding should play out

Suriano- 2
Carpenter/Law- none
Jimmy- 3
Zain- 1
Nolf- 1
Joseph- 4
Hall- 2-6 range up for grabs
Bo- 1
Cutch- 4
Nevills- 3

174 is fairly weak in Big Tens, compared to 133, 165, some other weights.

BoJo is a clear 1, not because he wrestled anyone but more so because there's no one else worthy of a 1 here.

There there is Hall, Meyer, Amine, Brunson.
Meyer beat Hall.
Amine beat Meyer.
Brunson beat Amine. Wanzek beat Amine before dropping to 165

I think if Hall beats Brunson, you go:

1 BoJo
2 Meyer
3 Hall
4 Brunson
5 Amine

 

[PSUAllTheWay]

I don't care where Bo Jordan is seeded. To be a champion you need to beat everyone in your path anyway. Mark will be ready by Big Tens.

Brunson also has a win over Meyer.

What a wacky seeding mess

2-3-4 could go any way. Even 5.

Not my concern. It is what it is, and not worth having a heart attack over. Focused on our guys, no one else...it'll all come out in the wash, as they say.

Fans missing a good match, if Bo is healthy, is a bigger story. Travelled round trip to see the dual (were you there, spyker?), and would have enjoyed seeing this particular match-up. Ok though, I'll see it in Bloomington...

I don't care where BoJo is seeded either...as long as it is in the other bracket.

He's putting a FULL COURT PRESS on the keyboard!!!!!!

Just my take on the importance of the Big10 seeding. It makes no difference where they seed Mark. Jordan on the other hand is hoping Mark is on the opposite side.

 

[Ian]

I pretty much agree, LemonPie, but like Hall at 3 and wouldn't be surprised if eight guys reach the finals. Definitely five are in!

Suriano- 2 Finals!
Carpenter- 14
Jimmy- 3 Finals (he can beat McCrystal to reach)
Zain- 1 Finals!
Nolf- 1 Finals!
Joseph- 4 (toughest weight)
Hall- 3 Finals!
Bo- 1 Finals!
Cutch- 4 Finals (he can beat Pfarr to reach)
Nevills- 3 Finals (he can beat Medbery to reach)

I do care. I want him getting a seed he deserves. I'm not sure how close team race will be, but if he's at a #2 seed then there would be more potential bonus.
I agree that Mark will be ready though, either way.

I wonder if Youtsey has time to make up ground...

 

[Ian]

Most of the #4's are vulnerable like Lizak, Micic, Pletcher, Bannister, Short, Brunson, Martin, and Kroells.
