Can anyone else recall a lapse of judgment this poor by a high level wrestler?

I don't want to admit how much time I spent looking for this 2014 Cael Sanderson tweet that was a reply to a now non-existent Vine (look it up, it used to be real, kids). But I remember it almost as well as this sick Ed Ruth takedown at NCAA's against Ohio State All-American Nick Heflin. Cael is not one to heap much public praise online, so you know this takedown was a real stand out moment for Cael for him to have said this misdirection from Ed was one of his all-time favorites he'd ever seen. They don't get much smoother than Ed Ruth. Our All Quarter Century Team has made it so fun to go down these now decade-plus old rabbit holes from our sports all-timers.

If you ever want to see a sharp contrast in crowd energy, look no further than this pin by Bo Nickal. As you saw in my last video, the place went insane when Alex Meyer defeated Mark Hall. Out walks Bo Nickal...single leg, spladle, pin. Talk about the air being taken out of the room. I got to sit mat side for this dual and it was an amazing memory for me.

This pin honestly doesn't even make sense. If you want to see an absolutely dominant top wrestler, search the archives for AJ Schopp. His tilt and pin work is some of the best we've seen in the last 10 years. If his style reminds you of Seth Gross, that's becasue Schopp coached Gross for a time at South Dakota State. In 2015, Schopp lost in r1 at NCAA's then went berserk on the backside, placing third and getting 4 pins along the way. This pin against Jimmy Gulibon looked almost impossible considering how flat on his back he was before somehow powering Gulibon over for the fall.

David Taylor put it out there. He will save a date each year to wrestle Penn State in a dual. No expectation of home and home, willing to travel to Penn State.

Angelo Ferrari dropped to a knee 32 times (this did not include attacks or when he was attacked, just when he was neutral, out of contact, and dropped to a knee)for a total of 2 minutes and 34 seconds. Coach Brands mentioned Angelo would do well to add some fakes into his arsenal.

This is the first time I saw Ben Askren wrestle. The big fro and the crazy technique were pretty mind blowing to witness. Knowing the dominance both Jake Herbert and Ben showed that year, it's hard to imagine a bonus point win for either. But that's exactly what Ben did. It's Ben's birthday today! Happy birthday to the legendary Ben Askren!!

The frustrating things about these non takedown calls is that they’re getting them right on the mat and somehow talk themselves through out of what we know is a takedown. Angelo has three here and you can’t convince me otherwise.

I think people forget just how great the 125 pound bracket was in 2018. Spencer Lee, Nathan Tomasello, Darian Cruz and Nick Suriano were the semi finalists. Spencer was pitted against NATO a national champ and one of the few men to own a win over Spencer Lee. NATO beat Spencer in the Big Ten semis 2 weeks prior and now the two were set to tangle in the NCAA semis. Ultimately this match was all Spencer Lee, culminating with a pin after a failed leg pass by Tomasello. The fact that people continued to try to pass Spencer's leg after this sequence boggles my mind, but they kept trying, and it usually ended a lot like this.

Meyer Shapiro's steroid accusation/suggestion combined with the chime ins from Alex Marinelli and Jacob Warner struck a chord with me. There was nothing helpful brought to light whatsover. Just nameless, vague accusations. Unhelpful and reckless.

The last person to weigh in for Final X was J’den Cox. When I walked into the arena he was seated in a wheelchair. He came to weigh in area on crutches and made weight.

Aaron Pico was an absolute monster in wrestling. Apart from making the Olympic Trials finals in high school, one of his crowning achievements was being 6-0 against Zain Retherford. While this certainly wasn't Zain in his final form, don't misunderstand the situation. Zain was coming off an All-American finish where he notched a win over Logan Stieber. He also was a Cadet World Champion previously as well. While this win was in 2014, their final meeting took place in 2015, just a few months before Zain would begin a historic sophomore season which lead to an undefeated national title. Pico's departure from wrestling was a bummer for wrestling die hards, but I'm excited to see what he can do in the UFC. Those hands are HEAVY.

It's an interesting decision for the FloWrestling rankers: How do you treat injury defaults in rankings? Historically, the notion that no result can be assumed was the ethos of rankers. That said, exceptions can also exist and be considered. #29 PJ Duke put the rankers to the test when his domination of #12 Logan Rozynski was stopped short when Rozynski got injured and had to default. They decided to move PJ from 29th to 12th based on this result. What do you think makes the most sense?

“Thank you for believing in me.” There’s so many amazing and gut wrenching moments in the tunnels at NCAA’s. This one between Vincent Robinson and Pat Popolizio was very special.

While no freshman has landed the headlines of Josh Barr for this season, there's a strong case that Max McEnelly has had the best year of any freshman. The Minnesota 184 pounder is 29-0 for his career. 17-0 this year with 88% bonus rate (just two decisions). He has dominated some incredible talents including Big Ten champion Silas Allred. Max has great defense, utilizing perfectly timed re-attacks. He can generate from his feet with a powerful double or a lightning-quick single leg. Max is in in a difficult weight class with 4x NCAA Champ Carter Starocci and undefeated NCAA Champ, Parker Keckeisen. Throw in someone as good as Dustin Plott and you have one of the most top-heavy weights we've seen in years. I can't wait to see Max test himself against the top of the weight class.

Lost in the insanity of Matt Ramos pinning Spencer Lee was the fact that immediately afterwards, Vito Arujau picked apart his longtime rival and World Silver medalist Daton Fix by a shocking major decision. Wins like this are a large reason Vito was a finalist the All Quarter century team at 133.
