Makes no sense.
I once heard about an individual who couldn’t walk anymore because he didn’t have, because he lacked, marijuana to smoke.
(The Cucaracha he was called.)
Stranger things have happened, but I'd be shocked if they were on the same side. As you say ... "seems likely". And I'm saying that even before the conference tourneys, which I rarely do.
Wick already has losses to both, AND a loss to McFadden
McFadden has losses to Bullard, Monday, and Smith
White has losses to Wick, Marinelli and Joseph
Shields has losses to Griffin, Joseph, and White twice
Griffin is undefeated.
The NCAA's is a body-of-work seeding machine, or so they say. An undefeated Griffin could slide in at #2 if he wins the PAC12, but his resume isn't as strong as either Joseph's or Marinelli's. A 1&2 or 1&3 seeding for Joseph and Marinelli is highly likely.
I was just having a little fun with the 5 champions. While it's possible, it's unlikely.
Here's what I do think. Nick Lee has shown himself to be the man to beat at 41. He will win his title this year. Cenzo shines the brightest when the lights are brightest. He will become a 3 timer. Love Kemerer and he wrestled his ass off last time, but Hall will come on top in the Finals. That's 3 champs.
Next, if Z is, in fact, done. 84 is wide open. Brooks seems to be getting better every week. He's right there with Bolen and Hidlay. He could certainly win it all.
Lastly, RBY is one of 4 who could win it. Seabass may not be fully healthy. Gross is tough and smart, but as RBY showed him he is THIS close. He's a coin toss matchup with DeSanto, IMO.
So, I feel very good about 3, pretty good about 4, and 5 is not out of the question.

The only way Cenzo and Marinelli are on the same side is if NCAA deems two guys worthy of the 2 and 3 seeds. Griffith potentially is one. Potentially.
There is no 2nd person, unless something truly bizarre happens at B10s like Marinelli finishing 5th. Which no same person would predict.
My brother lives in Tuscan. He loves it. You can get to many great locations within a half days drive.
It’s not impossible, but his body of work is simply not that high.
and let’s face it....the idea of a Cenzo Marinelli rematch would be the feature match at finals. Pairing them in the semis would be an injustice to the sport.
When the NCAA is involved, the more unexplainable the decision the more likely it is to occur. Marinelli beats Joseph at B1Gs, they will be the 2 and 3 seeds at NCAAs, assuming Griffin is undefeated.
Sadly, I know. I remember the Ed Ruth seeding and the kid from Maryland I forget his name.
On the other hand, this match occurring in the semis rather than the finals would boost the winners' teams' title chances.
California says hello. But yes, Arizona is surprisingly diverse.
As always, thanks for sharing the rules. I didnt know the punishment was so severe on the 1st positive test.
Robin Ficker made sure that I never forget the name "Headlock Sheptock"
You say it as if it's a done deal if it plays out the way you describe. Highly unlikely, #1 reason is his body of work, though we'll see.

Highest and lowest points in the lower 48. Redwood forests, desert, Lake Tahoe, volcanoes, etc. Arizona is pretty cool too though.

Thanks for the information. I appreciate the insight from someone who has a practical and actual experience with NCAA rules enforcement. Like most people on this and other boards, I have been involved in several side conversations on this topic with former NCAA wrestlers and wrestling fans. In addition to the above information, I think it would be helpful to understand how the NCAA rules apply to the following questions:
A) How often are athletes tested?
B) Are there situations that would "trigger" (legal issues, university led investigations, placing/winning at an NCCA endorsed event, etc.) additional testing for an athletes?
C) How are prescription drugs (Human Growth Hormone, adderall, Xanax and others) handled?
D) Can schools initiate there own tests? If so and an athlete fails is the school required to report the failure?
E) When an athlete fails a drug test are there future required tests?
Thanks for your help!
As Dogwelder said, beaches. Plus the coastline in general. Big Sur, Point Reyes, North Coast, etc. California also has endless farms and dairies in the Central Valley. It is the #1 ag state, by far, in the country. Unfortunately, its also the leading producer of homeless people. I'll stop right there before I go too far.
Best is to read this. I did answer some questions above, in red.

Still, I'd rather live in AZ. Now Finland, there's a real place.
And Scarlett JohanssonPetrified forests, La Brea tar pits, geysers, caves, gold, ...
Wasn't he pinned in a dual last year? The name of the opponent escapes me, but I think the team was Missouri.
But Arizona has Mars Hill where Percival Lowell "Discovered" the canals on Mars and wrote books about Martian civilizations. Without him there would be no Marvin the Martian. Plus it also houses the telescope where Clyde Tombaugh discovered the (former) Planet Pluto. Check and Mate

ASU owes us one, in exchange for Bubba!Can he transfer here and go to 197
Just wondering if that would effect the outcome of any previous ASU matches. Would they have to forfeit any of their wins if Zahid was ineligible at 184?
I was always wondering how the kid was twice the size of all the kids he wrestled, now we know! STERIODS!!!! CHEATER!!! He needs to forfeit all his matched this year which means we get back the ASU dual meet win!!!!
NO POTHEADS IN WRESTLING!!!! IT IS A DANGEROUS GATEWAY DRUG!!! WEED DESTROYS YOUR WILL TO WIN OR SUCEED IN LIFE!! CAEL would never allow a pothead on the team!
Spyker, is that you?
