Win Magazine Awards

[midniteride]

I just saw that Win Magazine has announced its annual awards and that Nickal was named the Wade Schalles winner for pins. Although I am extremely pleased any time Bo or one of the other boys are so honored I have to believe that if Myles Martin or Kyle Snyder had pinned more people they should have won the award. Know what I mean?

I don't know about anyone else but I have no idea what you mean.

Style points?

I'll have to defer to Chickenman's comment above as I'm sure that they already have a Voodoo doll of me in Ohio.

How many pins did Nickal have that were under 2:00?

 

[androcles]

...didn't Martin get pinned by Bo in no doubt the most important match of Martin's career?...
...both individual AND team NCAA Championship were on the line...
...and Bo was victorious in both cases...

 

[Ban Basketball]

the most important match of Martin's career?...

Or, perhaps his first national championship that he wrestled?

 

[tomsc]

Or, perhaps his first national championship that he wrestled?

A first NCAA title is a huge match (not that I can speak from experience !) One could argue, though, that this year's match also had the team title on the line as well.

Not how we would have handled it.

Ryan just tweeted a still shot showing why McKenna should've won.

Ah, fair enough.

 

[SRATH]

Bo doesn’t get a chain, so at least he got something.

It cheapens the Wade Schalles Pin award when it doesn't go to the guy with most pins; Mike Hughes had 19.

 

[RandyL]

It cheapens the Wade Schalles Pin award when it doesn't go to the guy with most pins; Mike Hughes had 19.

And we remember every one of them.

 

[CholleyVandine]

It cheapens the Wade Schalles Pin award when it doesn't go to the guy with most pins; Mike Hughes had 19.

19 falls in 44 matches for Hughes. That's 43.2 percent.
16 falls in 31 matches for Nickal. That's 51.6 percent.

51.6 is more than 43.2.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

McKenna during the one-sided NCAAs promo about the “rivalry” (when tOSU thought it was in the bag) = fart noise. All of a sudden he’s Mr. Buckeye and talking about the rivalry.

Coach Ryan, is that you?

 

[Cali_Nittany]

And we remember every one of them.

And with Hofstra's schedule, it must have been against top competition too. (Although he did have a win against Rutgers.)

 

[El-Jefe]

Minnesota 157-HWT = 14 pins (Short 4, Wanzek 2, Pfarr 1, Krone 2, Anderson 5, Streifel 0).

Bo Nickal = 16 pins.

Another classic Jammen Fail.

That night it was Rutgers backup I believe.....but the powerhouse Rutgers reference is always appropriate...…..big points.... Ignoring the 6 losses against ranked wrestlers.....some by fall......took guts...….lots of facts ignoring.......well done.

I guess you didn't read the WIN article:

"In all the years the Schalles Award has been given out, this is the first time where the recipient parallels exactly what I envisioned the award to represent." -Wade Schalles

That is pretty f'ing awesome.

Schalles says a few additional nice words, too.

51.6 is more than 43.2.

Then it should go to Nolf with 16 pins and 59% by that flawed logic.

 

[matter7172]

If the guy for whom the award is named is more than cool about the award going to Nickal, I'm counting that for more than your opinion. Just saying.

Circle the date: Jammen just argued for a Penn State wrestler winning a national award.

 

[NoVa Lion]

ROTFLMAO, since when does the KIng of flawed logic care about it? I hate to say this about anyone but you truly are pathetic. Time to give up your obsession with Cael and PSU and try being a wrestling fan.

So I guess you'd want Dan Hodge to name the Hodge Trophy winner? The problem with the Schalles award is that there are no criteria given; Although we do know that most pins and greatest pinning percentage don't count for much in determining the winner.

It seems to bother only you. There are no criteria. Fine. Gives the award grantors some wiggle room. That's ok with me. Nickal pinning Martin in the finals to win the weight class and the team title probably didn't hurt his case.

 

[SRATH]

Give Jammie some slack, his team outscored Bo 27.5 to 23.

In frozen goofer land, when one is wrong they double down and insist they are right.

Schalles actually selected the winner?

Link or it didn't happen.
