I'll leave my take off on Carter v Kyle this way:
That ending has all the certainty and officiating integrity of the 1972 Olympic men's basketball gold medal final between The United States and the Soviet Union. 😂 😂

My understanding is that Carter has eyes on the Olympics in LA but things obviously change
You have to sympathize with js1339 here though: First of all you are an Iowa fan. So you are beaten before the event begins. Regardless of the event. 😂 Second, you have to choose between a Penn State NLWC guy, and a Cornell NLWC guy, so you lose anyway, but you have to pick the guy with a few years LESS all things Penn State/Cael/Casey 😂.
Allow me to also add: Yes I am bummed for Carter but you do know Carter, right? I am deadly serious when I say that is going to be the last time he loses, ever again, until he moves on from the sport. Zero doubt. In addition, I am rooting for Kyle to win final x and go get that gold this summer.
Even crazier is that I left out Lilledahl and Mesenbrink. It’s actually three undergrads and two not yet enrolleds.
And craziest is that we have five guys with eligibility in Final X and only one other school has any: OkSt has Jax.
Indeed the talk of our death has been greatly exaggerated.
May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won’t. General Patton.

and the NLWC guy with 4 natties vs the one with 5 😆
I hope Carter gets out and wrestles a lot of International Freestyle: go everywhere. Work on offense and dominate.
I see Carter as our 86 rep in 2028. He will only get stronger and more technically savvy from here.
There are some here who show weakness and feel bad for js because he's a Hawk fan. Not me tho, I consider him becoming a fan of anyone from any school who competes against PSU guys as the great equalizer between us.
True.... he still loses, but not quite as bad.
Yes. It’s crazy to think we have 7 World Team finalists! Hopefully, we’ll have 7 World Team Champions!
Thank you! I almost threw my phone when I saw Bruce's blasphemy about Hall.
I think you’re wrong. This is fun!
Circling back to say you’re totally right! I had the Dake-Starocci position backwards.
I still think the Sadulaev example shows that it’s the chest lock that matters because Taz put him on both cheeks for multiple seconds.
Someone posted the clip with a clock added in. Dake hits the mat with about .5 seconds left.
I think he was in Final X at 79kg as a sophomore wasn’t he?

Wanted them all, but this one more than any other. Yes✊. And Levi is winning final X
This may sound non-sensical, but I am seriously asking. When a countdown clock shows only seconds and not tenths or hundredths of a second, does the clock switch, for example, to 6 at 6.0 seconds or 6.99 seconds? I did find this explanation online:
When it says 00:05, what it really means, is that the time is in range of 00:05:99 - 00.05:00
When it says 00:00, what it really means, is that the time is in range of 00:00:99 - 00.00:00
So, if this is correct, in the video above showing the last six seconds of the match, you could have started the countdown to the end of the match anywhere between 6.00 seconds and 6.99 seconds. I am assuming the official clock they use at the mat goes to hundredths of a second, but I don't know that for sure.
Not the way Jordan Burroughs would have done it. He would punch that eye every chance he could.
Sorry, man, it wasn't intended as a diss to Hall, who went a tidy 1-2-2 in his three NCAA tourneys. I just thought the Bassett to Bartlett comparison was way off the mark.
But, yeah, maybe not my best work.
