ELITE. Hips of stone. That man can wrestle and doesn't look like his heart rate doesnt go up at allAnd that is what you call elite defense!
If that's the case, then why do they reward an escape point then get cradled immediately? It was a bullsh&t call.don't you have to get to a "defensible" position first? you see that situation when guys try to cut guys and they won't get up too.
These refs are beyond awful. Let’s also discuss that earlier in the Starocci match, Carter was about to get 2 on the scramble and the ref blew stalemate. Just awful.
huh?If that's the case, then why do they reward an escape point then get cradled immediately? It was a bullsh&t call.
Another situation where they incorrectly reference "reaction time". Don't believe it applies in this non TD situation.... Wrestler's were face-to-face and there was clear separation - an escape point was even called by Official. As a Ref, you can't call the escape there (with both conditions met - face-to-face and clear separation) and then reverse your call, that's utter bullshit as the escape call is what signals the former top wrestler that he's good to go for the TD as as an escape point has been awarded. Utter bullshit call there.
There's no delay needed. Bo did this all the time for cradles. He released and immediately went in for a cradle.huh?
Until you provide a link to NCAA rules regarding "deep whizzers," you can stop talking about anything rules related.Another situation where they incorrectly reference "reaction time".

See that all the time. Once they break, ref waits until they turn around or get a step or two away before awarding the point. He awarded the point early, IMO. No issue with the reversal of the call at all.

and they awarded an escape every time? i've seen it called very inconsistently. for example, in the gilman-lizak match, they didn't count one of gilman's singles because of this. i've linked it here. you can hear the official say "he's gotta be able to defend himself."There's no delay needed. Bo did this all the time for cradles. He released and immediately went in for a cradle.

yes, big loophole they added after the first year of it. i have no idea why. as long as you're on your feet the count stops. savvy from dean.So no 5 count in standing position?
is that your definition of defensible or the one they actually use?"Defensible" is defined as clear separation and wrestlers facing each other (doesn't matter if one wrestler is wrestling from a knee as long as he is opposed to opponent and there is separation - both of which conditions were met and the Ref clearly signalled this by awarding an escape point).
Wrong. No requirement for 2 steps of separation - that's nonsense. The only requirements are that wrestlers be opposed to one another and that there be clear separation - both of which were met. Furthermore, the Ref called the ESC after seeing the clear separation - this is what signals that the former top-wrestler he can attack for TD. Just complete BS that the Ref makes this call then absurdly reverses it when both conditions for his call were clearly met simply because Michigan asks for it. Bullshit reversal.
