What's this?

I agree you can’t extrapolate or compare what BA is doing across the board

But I’m going to disagree that Wilson has shown he’s NCAA ready this year. He only has 10 matches with half of them against guys ranked #100+ on WrestleStat, and despite that he hasn’t been dominant against low levels of competition. Consistently grinding out low scoring matches against top guys is absolutely a skill that translates to NCAAs… but I don’t think consistently having that type of match against guys in the #80-#150 range suggests he’s in top form.

Maybe he’ll peak at the right time as he has in 2018 and 2021, but I wouldn’t be shocked if he loses a couple close ones and goes out early either

Point taken, I was talking more about style than the person behind it -- VTCALS72 02/08/2022 1:15PM

True. I completely agree with you. -- MExpos27 02/08/2022 3:55PM
