Agreed. Really surprised by that performance but I think the NW wrestlers size really gave him trouble. Its extra bad because Fish would have been his next opponent who he had already easily beaten twice this season. Such a thin margin in the tourney.
None of these guys seem to have the energy we are used to seeing from them.
It was an illegal hold for locking hands. You can only connect your hands if both of the opponents knees are off the mat. I was worried about that challenge. Real bummer, thought he had a good chance to make a run, gotta do it on the backside now.
The ride outs are back to back 30 second periods and then after both the tie breaker goes to RT. Because of the illegal hold the score was 2-1 so the RT didn't matter. He would have won with an escape.
Forget about a team podium finish
Hippolito loses based on RT. Not sure how because he had 30 seconds riding time to start a 30 second rideout

Unless there are 1. Limits on salaries for players and 2. Limits on the amount of times and when a player can transfer - Virginia Tech is done as a major competitor in the P4. Not negativity, not hyperbole.
At least in basketball, I think the expectations are somewhat reasonable. We all understand if we make the tournament, that's cause for celebration in Blacksburg.
We're never going to be the one-and-done factory like Duke. The best case scenario was Buzz's last year - recruiting very good but not elite guys, keep them in the program for 4-5 years and throw in a top end talent like NAW. The dream situation is peak Bennett at UVa.
The only way we can do that today is targeting the low to mid 4*s and putting together competitive NIL deals with retention bonuses and buyout clauses. Idk if that's even possible.

Hits immediate reverse. 8-2 and injury check on his opponent
