His cousin Brock Ervin who is a junior right now is incredible, just placed at Ironman
I actually thought of you as he put Ness on his back the first time.Quote:

I wasn't able to watch it but everybody in the Kentucky wrestling community is going insane right nowQuote:

Caleb proved me right last night because he didn't allow Ness to use his hips and scamble ability to score points. I personally don't think Ness is that good of wrestler. He has been able to get away with terrible technique which you can't do forever. I mean how many dudes can you rico roll before they figure out how to defend it? When I was wrestling the rico roll was a desperation move at the end of a match when you needed a fall to win.
I do think it's a combo of injury, scouting and Ness putting himself in terrible positions. Caleb wrestled him perfectly last night, didn't allow him to pull off his moves. Quite a few wrestlers score a ton of points their freshman season then are forced to adjust when their top move or two is scouted. He's a unique wrestler, that's for sure, but he'll have to refine his technique a bit if he wants to see the finals again this year.
Ness seemed to be leaving himself wide open for caleb to try to move up and look for back points yet Caleb wasn't biting . Looked like a bad 8th grade match from Ness.
