FloCenter- NCAA Madness

John Smith even said in an interview on ESPN after the match that it was pretty emotional for Chris Perry with his brother in the corner. Competing against your sibling is completely different than directly coaching against. When other coaches could have done the same.

Would have liked to heard atleast something about McD, the champ at 125. This is the second interview where you guys said absolutely nothing about the champ who dominated up to the finals and then controlled megaludis. You also talked about the 1st place team, the 2nd place team, and the 4th place team. Nothing was said about Iowa's tournament. That I have less of a problem with because Cornell had 3 champs which is awesome for the east coast, but in my opinion you guys are the media for wrestling these days. Why no talk about Iowa unless it is about booing dake? I am an Iowa fan and I was pretty disappointed that some Iowa fans were booing dake. I also know a few Iowa fans that were there who said they did not approve of that either. Ya know, I am an Iowa homer, but I am a little disappointed that this site doesn't really talk about Iowa much unless it is painting Iowa/Brands/Iowa fans in a negative light. Believe it or not the state of Iowa's wrestling fans are very passionate about wrestling, but they are still the minority in this state and there is a lot of room for the sport to grow in Iowa, especially at the high school level. Would have loved to seen some kind of coverage for Iowa high school wrestling, because there is not much video coverage for it. I do want to say that I think Flowrestling is great for the sport and you guys do an awesome job, but IF Iowa college wrestling dies I believe it will on the high school level also and I would sure hate to see that

1. takedown for Oliver (agree that there needs to be some education for officials and fans in that position)

2. Mark Perry should not have been in the corner
3. John Mark Bentley coach of the year ( to me coach of the year is the guy that gets the best results with the least resources)

If Joe coached against me. He would not be aloud to show up during Christmas. After the match I would not shake Joe's hand, I would give him a round house!!!

Alllllmost got it on my prediction of Sakaguchi over Molinaro. Guy is going to be a BEAST next yr. Sad Oregon St loses the JACK Hammer. 125-Rollins, 33s-Roberts, 41s-Mangrum, 49s-Sakaguchi, 57s-Pena, 65s-Latham/Seth Thomas, 74s-Weishoff/Engdahl, 84s-Meeks, 97s-Vinson, HWTs-Kloss/Gidlund/Swartzlender.....solid club...but yes, Stanford's on the way up too!

If you look at the Villager Newspaper Online and check out the Stieber article, there is a sequential photo montage of the end of the Stieber - Oliver match. Sure doesn't look like a takedown. I can't paste the link because the comment page thinks it's spam. Just do a google search for "the Villager Newspaper Online".

Oliver had two but didn't get it. Everyone should know Oliver is going to shred everyone next year.

Chad Mendes had the same sort of situation against Jaggers in 2008 and they didn't call it a takedown. That one wasn't at the end of the match though, so I think it didn't get quite as much controversy

Jordan Olivers head was trapped inside. He didn't keep wrestling until he heard two!

the ref looked at them for at least 5 seconds he was telling oliver it was neutral still and he didnt move it shouldnt even need reviewed the ref saw it for so long and told the wrestlers they were still neutral imo good call

I think video replay would only apply for mis-application of the rules but not to review judgment calls. With that being said, after seeing video and photos of the Oliver non-takedown call, Oliver didn't really have the ankle controlled with his right arm so it was correctly called.
