Southern Scuffle Thread

hard to find a more dominate 9-4 decision than that. Mark also looked way small to kent.

Hall looked great my video froze with 50 sec left but he controlled the whole match Kent couldn't keep up with him

Hope this doesn't bring out the pull the shirt

OMG.....GUY IS UNREAL...Cael has to pull his red shirt....Please Cael do it !!!! WE NEED HIM AND HE WILL WIN A NC THIS YEAR....
 
Wow. Mark Hall.

Right now he is the best 174 pounder in the nation, that includes the tanmens guy too.

It's gonna get tougher and tougher for Cael to make this call. Whether you think he is "small" or not, I don't see anyone better in the country. Not sure how you keep from pulling the shirt, we'll see.
 
Why do you hope that? If that's what Cael wants, why wouldn't you want that too?
Given that Cael may know a bit more than me I won't second guess. Just that I think we have a great lineup as is and can win nationals with keeping his shirt

National rankings suggest otherwise. PSU is currently ranked 3rd in the nation.

Those rankings would change instantly if Hall's redshirt is pulled.

Did anyone watch the McKenna/Prince bout? Arena had Prince winning 7-3 but it looks like it was McKenna who won (per bracket)
 
Priesch looking beastly, so Rasheed isn't exactly cooked.... but yeah.... Hall looks ready.

Pretty sure Coach doesn't use the rankings to make any decision. Right...
 
If the national rankings say it, then why even wrestle the championships? ;)

He feels that we can win a title without Hall. I am merely pointing out that the polls reflect otherwise.

The objective look, has us in 3rd place, without Mark Hall. With Mark Hall, PSU most likely would be higher in the polls.

Pretty sure that he hasn't made any decision at this point. Hall could have his redshirt pulled.

While it is certainly nice that people are jumping on board and screaming how they don't want his shirt pulled, it might be the same kind of nice and respectful, if they support Cael, if and when he pulls the shirt. Support all decisions, not just your own.

I don't care what the rankings, I may to remember this correctly but didn't Q win with a 13 seed. Just my opinion but some of our guys are under ranked

I know the plan is to keep the shirt on. I just keep coming back to Cael's comments on media day. He made sure to point out how competitive Hall was in the room. Was he saying that publicly to light a fire under Morelli and Rasheed? Who knows?. All I know is he didn't need to make those comments and any decision Cael has made, HE can certainly change in the coming weeks.
 
I agree his shirt should be pulled. Scoring potential at 133 and 141 but risk the possibility of which wrestler shows up at NCAAS. Hall in the lineup would make up for those points if they failed to produce any. More of a security with Mark in the lineup.

Well well, how about them apples folks!?

Excellent post YG.

Mark expected to redshirt when coming to PSU, I have this feeling that Cael has a plan. Maybe 21 guns and Spyker could go tell him their's though.

All this Hall talk is a bad look for the board, imo.
Isn't Guns and Spyker the same person???
 
Having said that, Hall is a remarkable talent....he may be the best at his weight...but redshirt year in that room with that coaching won't hurt.
 
Maybe Cael will at least wait until after the semis to pull his shirt. Great win but two matches to go.

I'm completely indifferent. Doesn't matter one way or the other. I see the other side however. I will agree that Coach hasn't made a decision, and that pulling the RS is in the realm of possibility.

It's a message board. The last time I checked the Gestapo does not oversee it. Spyker and I have takes, you have a take, and others have a take. Young Guns WC just gave his take, that also differs from your take.

The "bad look" is suppressing opposing viewpoints, that's facism.

(1) They are not polls.
(2) The rankings do not account for bonus points.
(3) Kent is not necessarily the best measuring stick for guaranteeing a national championship.
(4) It's January 1st.
