Someone please correct me, but it appears SVN is mastering getting legs in for a BAA from standing.....on the way down. Its like he hits the mat and the other guy is incapacitated from the waist down.

Levi is the best at this, hands down. And not just in the past 4 years.

For him, hooking the bottom leg is part of the takedown finish. It's like the freestyle guys who incorporate the leg lace setup as part of their finish.

Frank Molinaro was the first guy I can remember under Cael.

There is a great photo of him smiling while getting back points agains Dylan Ness with the bow and arrow. I was going to post it but for some reason I couldn't find it on the internet anymore?

Frank never used the bow and arrow. He turked a lot. But he never grabbed the ankle.

Here's the pic. Sadly the gif and video appear to be gone.

I disagree. Cael preaches fearless wrestling. He tells guys to give up takedowns. Part of the process. At tOSU Rocco was SO defensive. I think Cael rubbing off on him and he letting it fly which is gonna leave you out of position at times but wrestling this way lets you learn.

if this were a close match against a top guy, Rocco can defend with the best of them.

personally I like when we give up TDs at this point of season.

Agreed, but it's Spyker.

Anyone notice PJ wearing those leggings things last night? Don’t recall seeing him in those before

I noticed the same.

Some of the guys shave their legs before matches (Marcus). I believe I have seen in past matches PJ doesn't and his legs are hairy.

Just speculation, but maybe the hair provides enough friction and added grip to help pull in a leg, or it gets ripped out when someone is trying to do the same. If the leggings are the right material, might it help on both fronts???

His answer was Braeden Davis. He said that he went on a ride with Davis one time, and the conversation was so interesting that time just flew by, so he felt that the 24 hours would be the same way.
