Part of the issue is that you are not looking at the current data. Spyke sent it to me and here it is.Brooks didn't place at S32 last year, losing 7-0 to Nathan Atienza, who was never close to being ranked.
The red line is all of the other wrestlers except Brooks. He is the blue line, and he surpassed the Red Line in August 2017 per the data. The Green line is the calculated effect of Brooks entering the PSU room (scientific term for the delta between the Green and the Blue is "Cael's Coaching Increase or CCI").
If Brooks attended ASU, the line would project down and to the right, as Everyone regresses at ASU. Everyone.
If Brooks attended Iowa, the line would drop straight down, and actually go below the X axis, as Everyone Ends up Hating Wrestling in IC. Everyone
Ignore the headings on the graph below, as they are there to cover up our scientific approach to recruiting and development.
But in all seriousness, sometimes athletes make a step function increase in performance, so prior results really don't matter as much as a future indicator anymore.
Anyway, when is the Open House for the new dig? Great show yesterday as well. Liked the guys predictions
