From a competition standpoint I love it. From an eligibility and complaisance standpoint it’s crazy. If a CFB or MBB program tried to set up a semi-pro related feeder organization and do stuff like this it would be shut down before it even got started.
I agree. I've posted about RTCs plenty and no one wants to read another one of my rants. Just don't see them changing anytime soon.
The interesting thing about this event though is could it lead to a pro league for RTCs (post grads only)? I wonder if there's a market for something like that.
Shady CaelThey won’t go anywhere until the NCAA decides to care which I’m not sure will ever happen.
The setup, function and financial aspect of them are absolutely no question in violation of NCAA eligibility but they just don’t care.
Flo has already done events where partial lineups feature NCAA athletes not getting paid, and graduates receiving compensation, I doNt think this is too far off of that model if not entirely the same.
Bo 1-1 over Ringer. Alex had a pushout Bo got one point for the shot clock.

I like freestyle better than folk style. I do wish actual scored points would hold criteria over shot clock points. But this is very rare like 1 of 1000 matches in freestyle actually end 1-1.
Looks pretty close. I think we would have a pretty good chance, depending on the versions of wrestlers we get that day. Kaid and Boo can be giant killers when on ....Won't happen I know, but with everyone having RTC duals, how about this one, us vs ISU...
57 kg - Daton vs Colon
57 kg - Burks vs Attasauov (Russian dude)
61 kg - Witcraft vs Gomez (someone's getting thrown)
65 kg - Kaid vs Parker
70 kg - Boo vs Degen
74 kg - Wittlake vs Carr
79 kg - Plott vs Colbray
92 kg - AJ vs Bastida
100 kg - White vs Gadson
He's 6 weeks out and walking.He will be 6 months at Trials he's gonna try it.Just sounds like a terrible idea to meRinger’s Knee didn’t show any sign of injury as a spectator and coach at the RTC duals this weekend. Made me think that his acl injury was not a complete tear. Maybe he will be back on the mats by Olympic Trials.
What exactly was the injury?He's 6 weeks out and walking.He will be 6 months at Trials he's gonna try it.Just sounds like a terrible idea to me

Just know to many people who didn't wait long enough and tore it again.Nico terrible what happened to him.I agree. He'll be just shy of 6 months post surgery. That's about when Kerkvliet tore his ACL a 2nd time. Seems like Alex should heal up and focus on the World Championships in Oct back down @ 79 kg.
That said, it's tough for these guys not to chase their Olympic dreams. Nico Megaludis tore his ACL in Feb, seven months out from surgery. IMO, when healthy, Nico is a legitimate threat to win the 57 kg spot. He was going to compete without getting it fixed again, but then decided to get the 2nd surgery in Sep.

Flo's 150 bracket tonight did not go well for us with Oliver losing in the final seconds giving up his leg again with a 1 point lead and getting controlled out of bounds to lose the match to Pantaleo. Jordan did lots of faking shots but only got 1 takedown. He lost 4 to 4. Pantaleo lost in the semi's to James Green 4 to 2. Green against Bajrang from India in the finals.Nico seems like a good guy. Hope he stays healthy.
Kaid Brock is another guy that tried to come back too soon. He was about 5 months out from surgery when he had a setback. Fortunately, he was granted a 6th year.
