Re: NCAA Qualification Process
I will admit this after the last 3 matches. Wolfram, Cardinals, and Hall were all gassed and that's why they all 3 lost in the last seconds. Conditioning coach could be an area to look at. I would also bring in somebody to work on hip control. All three lost in scrambles with bad hip positions.

Re: NCAA Qualification Process
Looks like the WVU coaches know more than the keyboard warriors on here on what matches are important and what isnt. Cardinale in the quarters in a very winnable match up. This isnt high school, strategy is important.

Re: Big 12 Results and NCAA Qualifiers
Finishing in 13th place of 14 teams in the Big 12 tournament is alarming, to say it politely. I hope our qualifiers bounce back in the NCAA tournament. Again our 2 best wrestlers only wrestled 2 matches. Hall wrestled 2 matches, winning 1 and then losing to the BIG12 Champ and #1 NCAA seed. Cardina...

Re: Big 12 Results and NCAA Qualifiers
I guess Cardinale medical forfeiting worked out. Him plus Carman and Conley are going dancing. WVU gets most qualified since 2012.

Re: Big 12 Results and NCAA Qualifiers
It was definitely a disappointing result, but looking at team score really means nothing. Not sure about the true health of Hall and Cardinale but when your best wrestler doesnt even wrestle a match and then your 2nd best wrestler on the team wrestles 2 matches (winning 1 by pin, losing 2nd by 3-1 t...

Re: Big 12 Allocations
WVU Seeds for Big 12
Cardinale-1
Hall-4
Wolfgram-5
Titus, Hillegas, Horfeck, Joll, Carman, and Cooley-8 These guys have some work to do, especially Carman (Big 12 only has 4 automatics at 184).
The way each has wrestled in some matches this year I believe they can pull off some real upsets.

Re: WSAZ Best Performers
Seems I remember that if a wrestler scratches(moved to a different weight than seeded) after the seeding meeting they just get thrown into the bracket. I dont think they reseed after the original seeding meeting at WSAZ.

Re: WVU vs Missouri
Its kind of hard to recruit against other Big 10 and ACC schools recruiting the same area as WVU. Watch a Big 10/ACC dual and see how that compares to the crowd for a WVU home dual. I really just think there is not much interest locally in college wrestling. I would like to see the amount of donatio...

Re: WVU Injuries at the Southeast Open
Medical forfeits are common in college. They don't count against your record so it seems a lot of times that wrestlers will take a medical forfiet when they feel they have wrestled enough. Go back and look at the medical forfeits from the Big 10 tournament the last few years and then those wrestlers...

Totally agree Greco. Everybody on this site should know how hard wrestling is and the commitment that it takes, especially at that level.

I dont think that with wrestlers the facilities are as important as it is for say football players. Wrestlers are tough and gritty, most dont need fancy bells and whistles.
