And the kid needs to at least try. Carter was frustrated that the kid was trying to lose and get out of there that he refused the last TD then taunted him a bit, and waited to be on top to stick him. Maybe if the kid put up any resistance, Carter would have just taken the TDs.
Match Thread Maryland Dual Discussion/PBP
- Thread starter nerfstate

To put the 149 match into perspective, our unranked wrestler, who went into the season as our fourth option at that weight, held the 14th ranked wrestler to a regular decision. That, my friends, is depth. I hope everyone appreciates how special this team (dynasty) is. Winning a match or a dual meet is not a birthright. It is earned. Appreciate it. It won't last forever. (Just ask Iowa.) Gratefully enjoy the fun ride.
"He went out of his way to embarrass a kid who did not belong on the mat. "
Well then Alex if he doesn't belong there-why did YOU put him there?
He was referring to the 125 lb weight class this year
Just watched the 141 match (hadn't seen it previously, just listened to Byers). The scramble in the first period went forever (Clemson whined about it), but in fairness, they were never in a true stalemate position, Beau continued to work to improve and score the takedown. Admittedly, I'm biased, but I have no problem with the ref letting them wrestle through that. It was a nice win for Beau over someone that beat Mathews by major decision this year.
always a good thing when your star wrestler says he tweets he would have punched the opposing coach lol
If Kerry McCoy was still coach, can you imagine him barking at Cael and Casey? 😆
Which star wrestler? We have A LOT of them!
Or when your star wannabee actually does punch your star wrestler in a match...
Forget for a minute that's not what Starocci said.
Regarding Carter's Tweet, surely being a willing "second man in" is not only a PA thing
Univ of MD wrestling recruiting pitch:
At Maryland, we won’t expect you to try for bonus points. In fact, we think going for a fall is unfair.

There's complaining....then there is poking an opposing coach in the chest. Different ballgame when you put your hands on someone.
Just think, if Shane Van Ness was healthy, Mitchell Messenbrink would be our worse ranked wrestler. Yes, we are spoiled.
"Come to Maryland........We have This Mascot For a Reason"
Watch in slo-mo. That slap from AJ actually landed squarely on the refs face.
We’ve all been broken at one point or another but man that kid should have just thrown the kitchen sink at him and taken a beating.
so Self righteous good job Turk
"Hint of edginess"Iowa Fans anytime Carter or Bo say something with a hint of edginess…
I like it 😆
I heard what you heard. Gotta love Cael, he just sets there and takes it all in. Lol
So this is a real question…was that Maryland coach seriously complaining that there were too many pins? Is that real?
If so, how freaking pathetic.
If so, how freaking pathetic.
I think he was bitching that Starocci wouldn’t just take the tech when his kid gave up and was trying to lose.
Techs are for wussies.
He should have instructed the kid to take neutral to start the third.
I remember several years ago, PSU had a dual with Oklahoma State and Jason needed only a TD for a technical fall. He did all that he could to avoid just a TD. He wanted feet to back. Didn’t get it, but the idea was to look for something better. Carter did the same thing, and he was right to do so.
Look, every wrestler should ultimately be trying to pin the other guy every time they go on the mat. How many times have we seen a PSU wrestler build his lead near a TF, but when they get close - go for a pinning combination as last score that will put them past TF so if they hit it, they get the pin.... if no pin, TF. A HC complaining about an opponent pinning his wrestler is beyond weak.
Levi tried the same thing a couple weeks ago and the rev awarded the dreaded phantom TD to foil the plan.
Wow. His beef should be with his own kid for quitting.
Levi did it early this year also, except the ref gave a mercy takedown while Levi was attempting to avoid it.
I doubt it, Brooks is not a trash-talker, at all. Quite the opposite - although his opponent cheap-shotted him multiple times.
If he wanted to end it, he should have taken top in the third and let Starocci up from the alternate start.
