What's this?

Agreed. Everyone has a different routine, but the guys walking around 10+

over can normally make the cut for a single match in a dual, but then re-hydrate /re-fuel after weigh in's quickly. It's hard on the body. It gets much harder when you have to make that big a cut, wrestle two or three matches in a day (after re-hydrating) and then come back and do it all over again that night to be ready for the next day. I don't know what BA's or HB's cuts are on a routing basis, but had heard that they both big for their weight class. Lots of guys do it, but it affects everyone differently. I understand there are no excuses and everyone is in the same boat, but everyone's body reacts differently to the process. I don't think we can say that they are not in condition based on them getting gasses at a multiday tournament. It's a much different animal than a single dual match

Incase you were wondering about 2021 ACC All Americans -- wasris 03/22/2021 08:58AM

I am declaring 4 AA's. Mekhi is an All American in my book. -- Hokie Flyer 03/22/2021 09:27AM

My hopes for AA in 2022....Latona, Bolen, Mehki, Catka -- wasris 03/22/2021 09:52AM

The skepticism of Andonian seems overwrought. -- Hokiemacho 03/22/2021 12:01PM

My issue was not that Andonian (and Bolen 2nd match) lost Friday night -- VTraised 03/22/2021 1:35PM

I agree with this comment, I think we have GREAT guys on the team, but ... -- SimV Hokie 03/22/2021 2:07PM

Not sure we can judge... -- VPIGUY 03/22/2021 3:10PM

Sure, but I would also counter that they were 8-10 hours AFTER weigh in. -- VTraised 03/22/2021 3:18PM

I have to disagree...the 2nd day cut is always harder -- VPIGUY 03/22/2021 3:35PM

So did conferences with 2 day tourneys have an advantage? -- VTFirstGen 03/23/2021 3:08PM

Sure it is, but that’s across the board. -- VTraised 03/22/2021 4:19PM

VPI and VTraised, could you outline for us the steps.... -- wasris 03/22/2021 4:09PM

Different guys do it different ways. -- VTraised 03/22/2021 4:23PM

Agreed. Everyone has a different routine, but the guys walking around 10+ -- VPIGUY 03/22/2021 4:59PM

I forget. Do they weight in on 3rd day of NCAAT with 2 lb allowance? -- Hokie Flyer 03/22/2021 4:39PM

I believe day 3 is a 2 lb allowance unless something has changed. ** -- VPIGUY 03/22/2021 4:59PM

I have higher hopes....but that is why they call them hopes. ** -- Hokie Flyer 03/22/2021 10:24AM

Who else and why? Appreciate!! ** -- wasris 03/22/2021 10:25AM

Well I think we need to sort a couple things out on lineup first, but... -- Hokie Flyer 03/22/2021 10:31AM

We need to bring in a transfer at 197 -- OrangeHokieFan 03/22/2021 11:27AM

A quality transfer with one year eligibility would be good. -- Hokiemacho 03/22/2021 12:03PM

I like that kinda talk with a couple addons. -- wasris 03/22/2021 10:49AM

I wonder if -- Hokiefan94 03/22/2021 2:16PM

Sounds good.4Q, Academic AA, EWL/MAC champ at 184, seeded #14 2021 -- wasris 03/22/2021 2:36PM

It's early to talk lineup, but I'd love to see -- Wilmington Hokie 03/22/2021 12:13PM

Mehki moving to 174 is going to make another natty for him really tough. -- ElbertoHokie 03/22/2021 1:49PM

We could use another hammer. -- wasris 03/22/2021 1:57PM

Would love to see Borst at 197 -- vtdadingf 03/22/2021 1:33PM

Borst is not returning ** -- VT1986 03/22/2021 7:34PM

I would be surprised if Borst returns. -- Hokiemacho 03/22/2021 1:38PM

Yep!! -- wasris 03/22/2021 1:52PM

Bulsak 197 at Clarion in the portal as of today -- 133966Hokie 03/22/2021 3:01PM

Gas Tank Gary is also in the portal as of today... -- VPIGUY 03/22/2021 3:16PM

Agreed. Everyone has a different routine, but the guys walking around 10+
