    I think she is special but this generation already has Kennedy Blades and Kylie Welker so it’s getting crowded. Hope and exp

    If all the men’s D1 schools dropped wrestling would all the great wrestlers disappear or would they be at D2/3 schools? There are world class women’s wrestlers at some of those schools because that was where they could wrestle.

    National Duals - where does the $ go?

    Yes it was mostly a Flow event this year but this is the first year and I am sure there is ambition to eventually get it on a more mainstream platform. Don't know if that will succeed but at least someone is trying. As far as growing the sport, let's not forget that even the top programs...

    The 3-Point Takedown: Friend or Foe?

    I was aware of most of the limitations you noted but thought it provoke some discussion as it has..I like your last twist on the idea. It would be pretty easy to track and easy for wrestlers and coaches to be aware. And I like the possibility of big comebacks being more likely. I prefer...

    The 3-Point Takedown: Friend or Foe?

    Just thinking outside the box but what if the first tk was 2 pts, the second 3 pts, the third 4 pts, and fourth 5 pts? Or make it change by periods so a tk in the second was worth more than the first and a tk in the third more still? Either might boost action late in matches.
