Introduction: The Coakleys and Wrestling Events
00:00:02
Cokeley Brothers
We're rolling. Welcome back to the barn session. We've got four Coakleys in the house.
00:00:09
Cokeley Brothers
Ryan, Reese, Sammy, and Cooper.
00:00:14
Ryne
Which one's Sammy and which one's Cooper?
00:00:16
Cokeley Brothers
You don't know, and you'll never know. And that's okay.
00:00:21
Ryne
I get them mixed up.
00:00:22
Cokeley Brothers
All right. We just had a quite quite a weekend of wrestling go down. Um, you twenties, you 23s
00:00:37
Cokeley Brothers
and yeah, we're here to talk about it. I don't even know where to start though. So somebody help me start with your twenties.
00:00:41
Ryne
Well, let's start with you How about that?
00:00:47
Ryne
Lots of action there.
Debate: Wrestling Finals Process Needs Change?
00:00:49
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Uh, let's, ah I want to the first thing I want to ask you guys is, do you think that there needs to be a change in how they do this process?
00:01:01
Cokeley Brothers
Okay. Well, I was seeing some pushback on the internet about, I think it's a seriously unfair advantage for the guy to sit in the finals why where like the other guy making the finals has to wrestle five matches right before that.
00:01:17
Cokeley Brothers
I think that's not fair. I think that they should extend it to a two-day process where you wrestle the best of three series on the second day.
00:01:25
Ryne
Well, that I would be okay with.
00:01:27
Reese
yeah I wouldn't hate that. it does It's always felt like it goes by so fast.
00:01:31
Ryne
would it also be Would it also be okay to get let returning guys sit?
00:01:39
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know, because I started to think like, man, they should like U20s is so...
00:01:40
Ryne
Returning medalists?
00:01:46
Cokeley Brothers
it's I think it's pretty big in terms of the excitement around it. And we as of late, we've had some very, very awesome U20 world teams.
00:01:57
Cokeley Brothers
And so, especially with the fact that there's excitement around the guys are either in college or on their way to their college team at yeah at the U20 age group level.
00:02:08
Cokeley Brothers
ah I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a Final X format for it. Whether they are incorporating that into what they do at Final X as like an undercard or however you however you'd want to do it.
00:02:22
Cokeley Brothers
I think that they can generate a little bit more excitement around it. But I don't know.
00:02:28
Reese
I think, yeah. I mean, they could definitely make it more โ they could make more like fanfare out of it, you know make it more ah more of a big deal.
00:02:35
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Is that a good idea?
00:02:38
Reese
I don't know. It's a good good question. I feel like as somebody who's just going to watch it no matter what, it's hard for me to say.
00:02:46
Ryne
Well, here's the other deal, too. we We're trying to talk about making it more fan-friendly. then You gotta
Venue Critique and Format Excitement
00:02:53
Ryne
get it. You gotta to get both you twenty and U23s out of Spire.
00:02:59
Cokeley Brothers
How come?
00:03:00
Ryne
Dude, there's not even any, like... There's nowhere for fans to, like, sit... or I mean, I guess there are kind of stands that like, up and away or whatever, but, like, there's no, like, bleachers or anything.
00:03:11
Ryne
It just doesn't have a feel. The feel.
00:03:13
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. I mean, if you were, if you were going to build this out into something final X ask, you would want to do it in the same way that you do final X where it's at a venue with a lot of seating, you wouldn't want to do it where they do some, do the, the,
00:03:13
Ryne
You know what I mean?
00:03:26
Cokeley Brothers
Off on a total tangent here, because Willie mentioned this. There's really two events that happen at the national level. There are your... Your events where you basically process wrestlers like they're cattle.
00:03:40
Cokeley Brothers
You just get as many in as you can. They all wrestle and then they're out. you're you know that That's your Fargo, your Folk Style Nationals, your Southern Plains, all of those events, right? And then you have your your specialized events like the World Team Trials, like Final X, that you want to have fanfare attention for and that you want to be able to draw up you know excitement for.
00:04:05
Cokeley Brothers
it So I think U20s is something that's um on that scale. I don't think U23s is necessarily there, but I think U20s is there.
00:04:16
Cokeley Brothers
And I think that's why it would be not a bad idea for them to at least look into doing something Final like final X related with the world team.
00:04:23
Ryne
okay Well, it's just, it seems silly to me that we have our U7, the you seven team ah trials are are with ah
00:04:38
Cokeley Brothers
The open.
00:04:39
Ryne
with the Open, right? When you got U20s, you got seniors. And it just feels like, you know, there's definitely more... um
00:04:51
Ryne
of a, what am I looking for? An atmosphere. You know what I mean? of
00:04:58
Ryne
Where, you know, you kind of got U23s is like, I don't know. Like, yeah, there are guys that are trying to make the U23 team, but it's kind of laid back. It's not like as serious and,
00:05:10
Cokeley Brothers
It feels like a like a really... Like ah a major college open.
00:05:14
Ryne
If it will just Yeah, pretty much I mean, the kids that U20s that got beat were like devastated,
Age and Eligibility in Wrestling Competitions
00:05:24
Ryne
Like they weren't making the team or whatever Not every guy at U23s was that
00:05:25
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:05:30
Cokeley Brothers
For sure. Yeah. And like... Dude. Most of the guys... Most of the weights... Are... probably locked up by people at for you 23s are locked up by guys who aren't even at the tournament or at least they have the option to it like or option for it like it what at uh well lillidal forest uh i uh 65 could be blaze blaze and hardy will wrestle each other so place could get a
00:05:50
Ryne
Blaze. and Not Blaze. ah what Forest.
00:06:06
Cokeley Brothers
Blaze could make... Well, actually, no, he already took fourth. So Blaze could take 65 because it's top four. It's not top three.
00:06:13
Cokeley Brothers
Blaze could take 65. Duke could take 70. Mesenbrink could take 74. 79, Haynes. 86 is nobody.
00:06:26
Cokeley Brothers
Right? Because there's no way Carter's still 23. 92. No. 92. ah
00:06:31
Cokeley Brothers
ninety two
00:06:32
Ryne
No, Parker's not either.
00:06:34
Ryne
Neither is Keck Eisen.
00:06:34
Cokeley Brothers
no ninety 92 is Barr. 97, I don't think is anybody. And then Heavyweight, I don't think is anybody. So like 97 and Heavyweight are like the only two.
00:06:46
Ryne
Could Wyatt technically do both? Or is Wyatt too old?
00:06:48
Cokeley Brothers
I don't... I think Wyatt's too old.
00:06:51
Reese
Why it's probably too old.
00:06:51
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know what his age is, but...
00:06:52
Reese
He's like this was his sixth year, right? At least. Yeah, six year.
00:06:57
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yeah. This, I think, was his sixth year. So... Pretty sure...
00:07:03
Ryne
Well, why are we not doing a... like Those two should... or like All those guys should have to wrestle off of the spot. They shouldn't just get it. I understand not making them go through the tournament, but make them wrestle off.
00:07:17
Ryne
Do a special wrestle off. I mean, you got plenty of time.
00:07:19
Cokeley Brothers
Do it. Do it Fargo.
00:07:20
Ryne
do it at Fargo, yeah.
00:07:22
Cokeley Brothers
Yep. Yep.
00:07:23
Reese
I'm talking about because they could just take the spot without having to wrestle off.
00:07:27
Reese
That is weird that they can do that.
00:07:30
Cokeley Brothers
It's not, uh, not the most ideal in my mind.
00:07:36
Cokeley Brothers
So yeah, uh, that's like,
00:07:37
Reese
But you you I mean, typically, I feel like you know what's going to happen.
00:07:41
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, like Jake, like the led the last wrestle off I think to happen was Jake Woodley and Bo Nickel.
00:07:45
Cokeley Brothers
said, well, Bo's probably going to take this one from him.
00:07:46
Reese
Yeah. I think about the wrestle offs, like for the U 20 spot, like didn't fix, like when he wrestled off Courtney, like stuff like that, you know, that's what I think of when I,
00:07:55
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Now, I would be interested to see Jax Forrest, Nick Buzakis. That sounds like an interesting match to me.
00:08:02
Reese
that would be interesting. Yeah, that's true.
Wrestling Equipment and Venue Conditions
00:08:06
Reese
Zach is just, what is it about these U twenties and U 23s where he just kills everybody?
00:08:10
Cokeley Brothers
Dude. Dude.
00:08:12
Cokeley Brothers
I was telling Ryan, I was telling Ryan, the trend that we've seen with him is the NCAA season isn't quite what everybody wants it to be. It's still fine.
00:08:22
Cokeley Brothers
It's not the end of the world. Still does decent. You know, he doesn't make his way to the podium, but it's still a good season. And then he goes to trials for whatever age group event and he torches everybody.
00:08:36
Reese
Yeah, I mean, he's...
00:08:36
Cokeley Brothers
He beat Jesse Mendez one year for a team, didn't he?
00:08:41
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, yes.
00:08:42
Ryne
Yeah, ah the junior team, U-20 team.
00:08:46
Ryne
He cried afterwards.
00:08:49
Cokeley Brothers
I mean, he's so good at trials. And then like Worlds is also, there's there's something left to be desired from his performance at Worlds.
00:08:56
Reese
Yeah, because he just makes too many. That's just the whole thing is that he makes mistakes. He makes too many mistakes and he can make up for that. I feel like against a lot of the fields he sees at like U20s and U23s.
00:09:08
Reese
And you can't make mistakes as much in folk style and definitely not at Worlds.
00:09:13
Reese
Dude, I mean, like what like what he did in the finals there.
00:09:13
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, not...
00:09:15
Reese
you remember when he...
00:09:17
Reese
picked up the single leg and he literally went straight back with a high, with a high C like went straight back on his own head. And then he was like, Oh my neck hurts. Like just crazy stuff like that, dude.
00:09:30
Cokeley Brothers
I love it.
00:09:32
Reese
I do it. I mean, just for no reason. And he got a reversal too.
00:09:33
Cokeley Brothers
i love it.
00:09:37
Cokeley Brothers
That's great.
00:09:38
Reese
Like he got taken down media.
00:09:40
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yeah.
00:09:41
Reese
I mean, dude can reverse in any style. Crazy. Crazy.
00:09:46
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yeah. Uh, yeah, we'll get, we'll get to Nick Buzakis. We'll get to you 23. So when we get to it, uh, Ryan, you were our, you were our eyes and ears at the event.
00:09:58
Cokeley Brothers
Tell me where the mats. Okay.
00:10:00
Ryne
They weren't slippery, if that's what you're asking.
00:10:02
Reese
I know the same match, right?
00:10:03
Cokeley Brothers
That's what I was wondering. Yeah.
00:10:05
Ryne
Were they the same Mets?
00:10:07
Cokeley Brothers
I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure that the USA wrestling rudest dollar mats don't look the same.
00:10:14
Cokeley Brothers
At least. I don't know if they sanded them down or something.
00:10:18
Ryne
There was no s slipping and sliding, that's for sure.
00:10:18
Reese
Must have been a, yeah.
00:10:21
Cokeley Brothers
i think I think there was a humidity element to it at
Financial Transparency in USA Wrestling
00:10:25
Cokeley Brothers
World team trials senior.
00:10:26
Ryne
Yeah, they also kept like ah this garage door that like went outside and in the arena, or or not the arena, whatever you want to call this place. um They kept it open, kind of kept it cool the entire time.
00:10:40
Cokeley Brothers
That's nice. That's very nice.
00:10:42
Reese
And another thing somebody said, another ah reason why they might have been slippery is someone said ah that they would maybe because they put too much of the solution in and didn't dilute it with water.
00:10:55
Ryne
Oh, I'm cleaning it.
00:10:55
Cokeley Brothers
The cleaning solution?
00:10:57
Reese
Apparently that can make it, but that just seems crazy.
00:11:03
Ryne
Breach, we know this firsthand.
00:11:06
Reese
Well, yeah. i feel like ah I feel like we had to keep applying it, though. To continue
00:11:12
Cokeley Brothers
i I'm wondering why, what you know, NCAA uses the like sterilizer mat things.
00:11:20
Cokeley Brothers
Why doesn't USA Wrestling use those at all?
00:11:23
Ryne
know. That's a good question.
00:11:24
Cokeley Brothers
I only see them at NCAAs. That's it.
00:11:29
Ryne
They must be expensive.
00:11:30
Ryne
I'm guessing there's a financial element to it.
00:11:34
Cokeley Brothers
Dude. Of the finances of USA Wrestling is probably not an egg we want to crack open.
00:11:44
Cokeley Brothers
All right, good.
00:11:44
Ryne
I don't know. I don't know.
00:11:45
Cokeley Brothers
No, moving forward.
00:11:47
Cokeley Brothers
We will move forward.
00:11:47
Ryne
You don't want to talk about Rich Bender?
00:11:52
Cokeley Brothers
Rich. Rich.
00:11:52
Reese
Everything's fine according to flow. so It's all gravy.
00:11:55
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, because it's all great because things are going great for them too.
00:11:56
Ryne
Of course they think that. Yeah, because they're partnered with USA Wrestling.
00:11:59
Reese
Yeah, i know, but they, right.
00:12:01
Ryne
So, of course, they're saying that.
00:12:03
Cokeley Brothers
It's, you know, it is interesting that, you know, the the employees of USA Wrestling see these gratuitous pay bumps, but the athlete stipend, I don't think has gone up for as long as I've known about it.
00:12:19
Reese
I mean, what you're talking about, what like Rich Bender makes
00:12:25
Cokeley Brothers
more than rich. There's a number of people.
00:12:27
Reese
talking about just everybody. And when you say pay bones, are you saying like you, you saw what he made like year to year, like prior years and it's a lot, a lot more than it.
00:12:29
Cokeley Brothers
It's, it's, it.
00:12:34
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yes.
00:12:38
Cokeley Brothers
We can look at it later. Okay.
00:12:39
Reese
Okay. I saw what he makes now.
00:12:41
Ryne
What do you know, Sammy?
00:12:44
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know anything like that. I can't talk about. I just don't.
00:12:50
Cokeley Brothers
I'm not trying to make this like a, like a financial podcast.
00:12:50
Reese
Yeah, what's going to happen? Just talk about it.
00:12:53
Reese
Just get in the weeds.
00:12:54
Cokeley Brothers
Uh, I want to talk about the the weeds of wrestling, man.
00:13:01
Ryne
um Yeah, so, you know, what do you want to know about U20s?
Prospects and Performances at U20
00:13:05
Ryne
What excites you the most? What tickles your fancy?
00:13:09
Cokeley Brothers
what What do I want to know the most? What?
00:13:14
Reese
I want to know what you're... Well... So, Ignacio Villasenor, like...
00:13:20
Reese
He's a sophomore. Just completed his sophomore year.
00:13:25
Reese
I thought I heard someone say that.
00:13:28
Ryne
He's got to be going in.
00:13:30
Ryne
he will so he's um He's at Stillwater High now, right?
00:13:37
Cokeley Brothers
Hang on.
00:13:38
Ryne
I could have swore I saw him in this big board.
00:13:45
Reese
I don't know who. What I how I heard that or.
00:13:49
Reese
Where I mean where may have heard that.
00:13:50
Cokeley Brothers
Wait. Are you right? Is he going into his junior year?
00:13:56
Ryne
That's kind of crazy. He's tough.
00:14:01
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, wait. He's going into his junior year of high school. Wrestling at U20s?
00:14:06
Reese
Yeah, that's the other thing I was like like, how old is he actually?
00:14:09
Cokeley Brothers
Did he wrestle Oh, U20s.
00:14:12
Ryne
Well, I mean, that's what, uh, Spratly beat, um, Bassett and forest the summer. They were going into their, home their freshman year.
00:14:28
Cokeley Brothers
ah you twenty s
00:14:30
Cokeley Brothers
That's dude. Dude.
00:14:34
Cokeley Brothers
The whole Bo Bassett age situation got brought up on Twitter again.
00:14:37
Ryne
It will continue to be brought up on Twitter.
00:14:40
Cokeley Brothers
and Until he's in seniors. ah Until he's out of college wrestling in seniors.
00:14:45
Reese
You handled your interaction with what was it global wrestling order?
00:14:52
Ryne
Sammy loves talking to that guy.
00:14:53
Cokeley Brothers
Thanks. Appreciate
00:14:56
Reese
Yeah, he's big. He's big time now. He's everywhere. He knows how to get the clicks.
00:15:02
Cokeley Brothers
He's working. He's working it. No, I don't. the Ignacio is an interesting case because i don't think he was really tabbed as somebody who was going to be a player in this field.
00:15:16
Cokeley Brothers
But he takes out Vinny Kilcuri, Mack Mauger, Seamus Reagan, wins a criteria match over Nate Desmond, beats Antonio Mills 7-0, and then takes a match over Anthony Knox.
00:15:21
Reese
Smashed him. 10 to 0.
00:15:34
Reese
Could not figure out that chest wrap.
00:15:34
Cokeley Brothers
But then ultimately doesn't understand if he's in on the legs, Knox can still score.
00:15:44
Cokeley Brothers
It's a tough one.
00:15:44
Reese
Not enough time to, uh, yeah.
00:15:45
Ryne
It's one match away from him though
00:15:47
Reese
Oh, that makes sense.
00:15:48
Cokeley Brothers
Took a match. Snatched it at the end.
00:15:50
Ryne
Man he's all the way down here at number 23 on the big board 27
00:15:54
Cokeley Brothers
Well, I'm guessing he's going to move up after that.
00:16:00
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, because it's this.
00:16:01
Reese
ah that makes sense yeah
00:16:02
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, yep.
00:16:06
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, I'm trying to see how damn Castillo did not do great.
00:16:12
Reese
Castillo, you know, I watched Castillo.
00:16:13
Ryne
So who beat Villa, who beat Villa senior at 17?
00:16:18
Cokeley Brothers
The open.
00:16:20
Cokeley Brothers
I don't think he rested you 17.
00:16:21
Cokeley Brothers
Hang on.
00:16:23
Cokeley Brothers
Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. Let me go pull up.
00:16:27
Reese
I'm going to say this about Castillo.
00:16:27
Cokeley Brothers
Excuse me.
00:16:28
Reese
You know, I saw him wrestle at the council buffs and um I wasn't, ah you know, the way he was wrestling.
00:16:35
Reese
i was like, I don't know.
00:16:37
Reese
I don't know if that's going to translate to the next level.
00:16:39
Ryne
yeah He should have, uh, Titan Fredericks, uh, should have beat him. Not that he got screwed. Titan, Titan just didn't fully take advantage of, no he's not an Iowa central guy, but he, I mean, so his dad and, ah Troy Bennett, one of our other coaches are good friends.
00:16:47
Reese
no Iowa Central guy.
00:17:00
Ryne
So the Frederick twins, they come around a lot. We see him a lot. Um, but anyway, titan was Titan should have beat Christian Castillo. He had opportunities to do it. He just didn't take advantage fully.
00:17:17
Cokeley Brothers
Okay, I am not seeing a a one Ignacio Villasenora U17s. Maybe
00:17:27
Cokeley Brothers
he wrestled U20s.
00:17:27
Reese
I mean, if he was ineligible for U17s, that would mean he's quite old for his grade.
00:17:34
Cokeley Brothers
That means he's turning 18 this year going into his junior year of high school.
00:17:38
Reese
I don't know. Oh, mean, yeah, sort of.
00:17:38
Cokeley Brothers
Just like Bo Bassett.
00:17:41
Ryne
yeah It's still water high now.
00:17:44
Cokeley Brothers
Isn't that what we said?
00:17:45
Ryne
And I asked that question already.
00:17:47
Cokeley Brothers
I think the research said that too.
00:17:50
Ryne
Still water, Oklahoma, but he's from Colorado.
00:17:55
Cokeley Brothers
You know, there's a much better way of me looking, looking for him.
00:17:55
Reese
I don't know what he's... He's upset. Yeah.
00:17:59
Cokeley Brothers
I need to go to, uh, what is a cat upset?
00:17:59
Reese
leman You open the door. He'll be like, oh, never mind. Yeah, his cat is meowing at the door. ah It's very unusual for him.
00:18:10
Cokeley Brothers
Oh no. Okay.
00:18:14
Cokeley Brothers
Ignacio Villa snore wrestled you 1755. Okay. Hang on.
00:18:22
Cokeley Brothers
You 1755.
00:18:23
Reese
Hey, don't do that.
00:18:24
Ryne
So did Gray Burnett beat him?
00:18:29
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Great. Great. Beat him on criteria three to three. Okay. And then on the backside, Ignacio took fourth.
00:18:36
Reese
You're talking about U17s?
00:18:40
Cokeley Brothers
He was there and he lost to Zinken on the backside.
00:18:41
Ryne
Who beat him on the backside?
00:18:44
Cokeley Brothers
Not eight, eight to seven.
00:18:49
Cokeley Brothers
Okay. Okay, so you pass pass the H check.
00:18:51
Reese
Interesting. Very interesting.
00:18:58
Ryne
and then he And then he went then he went ham.
00:18:58
Reese
it made ham How did he do that?
00:19:06
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, sometimes you just, when youre when you're on a heater, you're on a heater. Roll the punches.
00:19:10
Ryne
He almost made the team.
Wrestler Analysis and Future Potential
00:19:12
Cokeley Brothers
Must be with the team.
00:19:13
Cokeley Brothers
would've been, dude, it would be, that's that's ah that's Spencer Lee, right? You'd fail to make the cadet team and yeah.
00:19:16
Ryne
Yeah, Spencer Lee did that. Made the junior team.
00:19:22
Ryne
That's right, Sammy.
00:19:24
Cokeley Brothers
Yup. Okay.
00:19:26
Ryne
How'd you do on Gable today?
00:19:27
Cokeley Brothers
Uh, it's not great. I guessed a lot of heavyweights or not, not wait, hang on.
00:19:33
Ryne
Dang, you did that bad?
00:19:36
Cokeley Brothers
Now I'm mistaking myself. Did I, might've, uh, hang on.
00:19:38
Ryne
yeah that that was today.
00:19:42
Cokeley Brothers
Let me, I can, I can refresh my memory if I do this. Right. And then I did, then I did him and yeah, that didn't work out for me. And then I saw the wind percentage and I was like, oh, well then it's probably this guy.
00:19:56
Cokeley Brothers
And I didn't think of him. Yeah. It took me like five guesses today.
00:20:02
Cokeley Brothers
All right, cool.
00:20:04
Ryne
You need to find a share button.
00:20:05
Cokeley Brothers
ah I even find a share button.
00:20:10
Ryne
Find one and put it on there.
00:20:12
Cokeley Brothers
Do you think it works like, do you think it's like a, like a, like, oh, I found it. I found this button that can just like place it and then it works. I gotta, i gotta make it work. I just haven't had the time.
00:20:25
Ryne
Yes, that's how I think. i I feel like you scour the internet for the button and then you apply it.
00:20:30
Cokeley Brothers
No, I can, oh, I scour the internet for how it works and then I'll figure it out and I'll put it all together. Let's talk about 61 kilos.
00:20:35
Ryne
How about G? All right. right. Next. Next. 61. Is that what you said?
00:20:41
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yep, yep, yep.
00:20:43
Ryne
thought you said 65, actually, but.
00:20:46
Cokeley Brothers
Blaze blazes through the bracket.
00:20:47
Ryne
Yeah, he's pretty much, dude. He just, and I mean, he got to Zanfugit, and I was like, oh, this is going to be a fun match. It was not a fun match for Zan.
00:20:57
Cokeley Brothers
smashed him in a minute and a half.
00:20:59
Ryne
Yeah, I mean, it was just all gas, no brakes. I've never seen Marcus do that to people before.
00:21:05
Cokeley Brothers
No. Like right before that, he had a 5-1 match with Sidell. And I was like, this match was Zan. This is going to be a real thing. and it wasn't.
00:21:14
Cokeley Brothers
It wasn't.
Surprising Results and Bracket Challenges
00:21:15
Cokeley Brothers
And then he texts.
00:21:15
Reese
You were foolish for thinking that. That was foolish.
00:21:19
Cokeley Brothers
Why was that foolish? why Zan has done nothing but show us potential for the last three months.
00:21:26
Reese
Yeah. I don't know.
00:21:32
Cokeley Brothers
I was fugitive.
00:21:35
Cokeley Brothers
That works, right? They text Kyler Larkin and beats him 4-1 in match two, and that is that for him. Backside, Ben DeVino takes third.
00:21:46
Cokeley Brothers
This was a good bracket, though.
00:21:49
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, Seth Mendoza doesn't even place top four. This is a tough bracket.
00:21:55
Reese
Yeah, well, you ran into, what's his name, twice.
00:21:59
Cokeley Brothers
Ben DeVino loses to him 4-1 and 4-1.
00:22:01
Cokeley Brothers
That's that's brutal
00:22:05
Ryne
Yeah. What, her Herring, did he take fourth or did he not, or he being the Kansi Semis?
00:22:12
Cokeley Brothers
He got in the Concey semis by Seidel.
00:22:14
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, and the and then the Cortez brothers both don't place either.
00:22:18
Ryne
Yeah, yeah, it was tough.
00:22:20
Cokeley Brothers
What a tough bracket.
00:22:22
Ryne
What are these dudes, look, they're trying to figure out the Gable right now.
00:22:28
Cokeley Brothers
You lost?
00:22:31
Ryne
It took you more than eight guesses.
00:22:31
Cokeley Brothers
It was...
00:22:33
Reese
I mean, I clicked on a two like I didn't mean to click on. I was kind of going fast. and
00:22:38
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, I did that one day when it was Tyler Lillard and I clicked Lillard all.
00:22:43
Cokeley Brothers
I was pissed because I was going to get it in two.
00:22:45
Cokeley Brothers
I was going to get it in two.
00:22:47
Reese
I knew it was a heavyweight, and night snow missted I still lost.
00:22:47
Cokeley Brothers
I was pissed.
00:22:50
Ryne
I got this one and i got i got this one in three.
00:22:51
Cokeley Brothers
Slabikowski, man.
00:22:54
Cokeley Brothers
I should have probably three.
00:22:54
Reese
I did not know that Slava was around a 16.
00:22:58
Ryne
he He didn't have a good NCAA tournament.
00:22:58
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, three or three would have been. Now he was all beat up by the end of the end of the year.
00:23:06
Cokeley Brothers
Okay, 65.
Fairness in Match Rulings and Referee Decisions
00:23:12
Cokeley Brothers
Where to even start with this?
00:23:12
Ryne
but Bo Bassett looked phenomenal in the challenge tournament. And then even in against Stanich, he looked good there too, but just ran out of gas, man.
00:23:23
Cokeley Brothers
Faded. Faded, dude. but but So you say he looked phenomenal. Talk to me about this Valencia match.
00:23:31
Reese
That was Valencia's match, dude. He won that match.
00:23:35
Ryne
Well, what do you mean?
00:23:36
Cokeley Brothers
Did Bo Bassett really win it?
00:23:36
Ryne
He didn't though. I thought he did.
00:23:39
Reese
But that was not a takedown.
00:23:39
Cokeley Brothers
Was it a takedown?
00:23:39
Ryne
What... what it Yeah, why wouldn't it why wouldn't it have been?
00:23:40
Cokeley Brothers
Was it a takedown?
00:23:43
Reese
Because he had his leg all the way up on his shoulder.
00:23:43
Cokeley Brothers
Because his arm was underneath the leg?
00:23:45
Ryne
No, but he he was he had scored.
00:23:48
Ryne
If you would have seen it in person, you would have been like, no, it's two.
00:23:52
Reese
How? How is that too? Explain to me.
00:23:53
Ryne
It was two, dude. He scored it. He scored it.
00:23:59
Cokeley Brothers
It was two.
00:24:00
Cokeley Brothers
He scored it.
00:24:02
Ryne
You just got to go watch it. you got i where you had to You had to have been there.
00:24:07
Reese
that's That's ridiculous.
00:24:11
Cokeley Brothers
Uh, I don't agree.
00:24:12
Ryne
They've been calling it like that all year anyway. All summer.
00:24:16
Reese
I don't know. I don't know about that.
00:24:18
Cokeley Brothers
i don't know if that makes it the right thing either. Cooper, you got to stop.
00:24:21
Reese
It's not like it was down by his side. was all the way up on his shoulder.
00:24:25
Cokeley Brothers
No, it was, it was ah racked up on the shoulder.
00:24:27
Ryne
Not the whole time though.
00:24:27
Cokeley Brothers
wasn't pinching the elbow.
00:24:28
Ryne
At one point at one point in time it was ah it was two points.
00:24:39
Reese
And to review that and keep it at too, I just thought it's.
00:24:42
Ryne
That's how you know.
00:24:42
Cokeley Brothers
you know you know you know no you do You know who the problem it here is?
00:24:46
Cokeley Brothers
you know what you know let's let's Let's get to the real root of the issue here. Sammy Julian.
00:24:52
Cokeley Brothers
Because what Sammy Julian says, Sammy Julian gets.
00:24:56
Ryne
Yeah, it's been a, Sammy Julian's been a problem for a long time.
00:25:00
Reese
He does get overturned. He doesn't always get...
00:25:03
Cokeley Brothers
Sammy Julian's word is law.
00:25:08
Cokeley Brothers
You want to disrespect him, even if you're on the review panel. Don't even think about it.
00:25:14
Reese
Don't even think about it.
00:25:14
Cokeley Brothers
Sammy Julian says goes.
00:25:18
Cokeley Brothers
That's the real issue here. So I don't feel like Bo Bassett necessarily torched through the challenge bracket, but he did win.
00:25:24
Ryne
I didn't say he'd torch. I thought he looked phenomenal.
00:25:29
Cokeley Brothers
ah I mean, even, even look, I don't know
00:25:32
Reese
He looked good against Zepeda. But, i you know, I always โ I was always surprised that Zepeda was able to have such close matches with him to begin with.
00:25:34
Cokeley Brothers
He looked good against a payday, which was,
00:25:42
Reese
I mean, not that I โ I know he's good.
00:25:43
Ryne
Dude, what do you mean?
00:25:43
Cokeley Brothers
Pearson.
00:25:45
Cokeley Brothers
Zepeda got teched on the backside by Pearson.
00:25:48
Ryne
Pearson's good too. so
00:25:50
Cokeley Brothers
peson Pearson is a quiet name.
00:25:53
Reese
He's beaten Pearson Manville, though.
00:25:56
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, they've had back and forth.
00:25:56
Reese
i mean, they've had โ they're like, yeah, he's like Pearson's โ
00:25:58
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. But a 10-0 tech is...
00:25:59
Ryne
You shouldn't person made some jumps, you know, being in the.
00:26:05
Cokeley Brothers
Zepeda did beat Vega,
00:26:06
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:08
Reese
That's true. I mean, that's a big that's a good win.
00:26:11
Ryne
I mean, dude it was a good weight class. It was a good weight.
00:26:14
Reese
Yeah, i mean, that's a good weight class for sure.
00:26:17
Cokeley Brothers
There is, yeah there are names all in here.
00:26:20
Ryne
It would have been tough for anyone to beat Stan. It's coming out of that weight class.
00:26:25
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, I think Stanich is a dog.
00:26:27
Reese
Sanchez is obviously very good.
00:26:28
Cokeley Brothers
I think he's going to be, i think 141 is getting two additional hammers put back into the weight next year.
00:26:28
Ryne
I agree. That's why I said it would have been tough.
00:26:38
Reese
What do you have on?
00:26:39
Cokeley Brothers
Stanich and Cornella.
00:26:41
Reese
yes Did Cornell, he made the team, right? The 23 What does that
00:26:46
Cokeley Brothers
Well, he won Nationals.
00:26:49
Ryne
Oh, I guess he didn't make the team.
00:26:49
Reese
but does that mean?
00:26:50
Cokeley Brothers
He's probably not going to.
00:26:51
Ryne
Because Blaze can go wants to.
00:26:55
Cokeley Brothers
Blaze gets what Blaze wants.
00:26:59
Cokeley Brothers
What'd you say say?
00:27:05
Cokeley Brothers
Did you say preach?
00:27:09
Cokeley Brothers
It's either preach or like cream phrase or like that.
00:27:10
Reese
I said Marcus Blaise.
00:27:12
Cokeley Brothers
Just a little bit of cream phrase.
00:27:14
Ryne
I'm just going to add some of that cream fraiche.
00:27:23
Cokeley Brothers
So, I mean, I think the Bassett match is also probably the one where people, um, are the most interested or are are the most adamant that, that they, they need to separate the challenge bracket from the best two out of three in terms of different days.
00:27:40
Ryne
It wouldn't be that. That's not a terrible idea. That's honestly, it's not, especially, i mean, if you, ah well, you are.
00:27:46
Cokeley Brothers
You're hosting the event for two days anyway, or three.
00:27:50
Ryne
And, and like, if you, ah if you have guys sitting out, then yeah, would make sense to let there be some rest for the challenge tournament winner.
00:28:01
Ryne
You know, if you now let's, let's say there was no one sitting out and they wanted to get it all done in one day that way. That would make sense. You could do with that. You know what i mean?
00:28:10
Cokeley Brothers
Sure, sure. Now, two days would also simulate what happens at Worlds.
00:28:17
Ryne
yeah My question with the whole two day deal is the guys that sit out, do they have to make weight both days or just the one day? Just the one day.
00:28:27
Cokeley Brothers
Well, is the US Open, is that a two-day thing?
00:28:28
Reese
but Don't you make it both days of worlds?
00:28:33
Cokeley Brothers
Answer my question first. Is the US Open, is that two days?
00:28:39
Cokeley Brothers
if they So if they win a if they win a two-day event there and they're weighing in both days, it's fine. they' already shown that they can do that.
00:28:46
Cokeley Brothers
Then they just have to make weight on day two.
00:28:52
Cokeley Brothers
Which seems fair.
00:28:57
Reese
It's fair. It's fair.
00:28:58
Cokeley Brothers
What is he doing? What's...
00:29:00
Reese
What do you, I mean, do you think, uh, you think Bassett was just out of gas at that point?
Age Group Tournament Structures
00:29:06
Cokeley Brothers
Felt like it. I mean, it just it just seemed like he was not...
00:29:08
Reese
I think he just got, found himself in a hole. And then, you know, by the fourth, by the third takedown, it was like, uh, he, he, he was a little broken.
00:29:11
Cokeley Brothers
It just seemed like he was not wrestling through those positions.
00:29:21
Reese
He done got broke, dude.
00:29:21
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, then... ah
00:29:29
Reese
Stanich, he could definitely ah use some offense. I know he didn't need it necessarily, but would have been nice to see a little more offense.
00:29:36
Reese
I mean, he got to Bo's leg in the second match when he needed to. Just couldn't get the takedown, obviously.
00:29:44
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Yeah. got into a little bit of a debate in terms of, cause again, the global, global wrestling order guy, he was like sophomore in college versus junior in high school, but we'll be fine.
00:29:59
Cokeley Brothers
And it's like, that's not the arguing point that you should use for this.
00:30:04
Cokeley Brothers
But we'll be fine for plenty of other reasons. But this is an age group tournament. They're one year apart from each other.
00:30:12
Cokeley Brothers
So, use something else.
00:30:13
Reese
Yeah. Yeah. 14 months, I think is what somebody said there. 14 months apart in age.
00:30:17
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, yeah use use something else to explain your reasoning.
00:30:28
Cokeley Brothers
don't know. It was weird to me.
00:30:31
Reese
You're sensitive boy on Twitter, Sammy.
00:30:31
Cokeley Brothers
All right. I'm a sensitive Twitter head. 70 kilos. Oh. seventy kilos
00:30:38
Reese
Tell me about your so your your piles.
Kyle Dake vs Zahid Valencia: Size and Strategy
00:30:45
Cokeley Brothers
So Piles on Flow Radio Live said he he read out what Ramazanov thought of the match between Dake and Valencia or like the upcoming series. And he said 55-45 in favor of Valencia.
00:31:00
Cokeley Brothers
And something to the effect of Kyle Dake is like very good at wrestling. Zahid also very good, has a size advantage. So I'm going to go with Zahid.
00:31:10
Cokeley Brothers
And Piles follows it up with, yeah, I think that's what we're all thinking. It's like, dude, you put out.
00:31:17
Reese
You think he was saying that like to be like, yeah, idiot. we're um Obviously, that's what's happening. think he was
00:31:23
Reese
Or do you think he was just...
00:31:23
Cokeley Brothers
Even worse, even worse. Cause he's not thinking that he's been saying size doesn't matter.
00:31:29
Cokeley Brothers
Kyle Dake is big enough when it's clearly not the case.
00:31:35
Cokeley Brothers
It's very obviously not what's happening.
00:31:39
Cokeley Brothers
So to, to play that, to pull that, I just think is just wrong.
00:31:44
Reese
Look at Ryan. He cares less than me.
00:31:46
Ryne
No, I'm sorry. I got distracted with some work stuff. My bad.
00:31:54
Cokeley Brothers
Sure you did.
00:31:58
Ryne
Why you saying that?
00:32:00
Cokeley Brothers
I'm just fucking with you. um
00:32:04
Cokeley Brothers
Sorry, child.
00:32:07
Ryne
No, I mean, I think you're right. I think there's probably some hypocrisy there.
00:32:12
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, maybe there is, maybe there isn't.
00:32:13
Cokeley Brothers
maybe i'm Maybe I'm overanalyzing, but...
00:32:18
Cokeley Brothers
i hate I hate the idea that people believe that Kyle Dake isn't being affected in these matches by the raw size that he's handling. Okay.
00:32:29
Reese
I don't think it's that big of a deal, frankly. I think the way he was moving Keck Eisen, and and i mean you know Carter moves a lot of dudes around, and he certainly wasn't moving Dake around. I think the only time I've really ever seen Dake be affected by the size was like Richard Perry and Jaden Cox.
00:32:46
Reese
Those are like the only two I
00:32:47
Cokeley Brothers
100% Richard Perry, that shit was scary.
00:32:48
Ryne
and I don't even did that he beat Jayden Cox once too. So does it do the size really affect him that much?
00:32:54
Reese
Dude, I just remember him โ remember a situation where he was like in on a scoring takedown and Cox definitely did some like grown man stuff to him to like not get taken down.
00:33:06
Cokeley Brothers
just big body.
00:33:10
Cokeley Brothers
i so just because he wins a match doesn't mean the size isn't playing into the match.
00:33:17
Reese
Yeah, but I mean he just freaking moved Parker Kekheisen all over the mat.
00:33:19
Ryne
But it does mean that it's not affecting him as much as people think.
00:33:24
Cokeley Brothers
Ryan, what did you say?
00:33:25
Ryne
I said it does mean it's not affecting him as much as people think. People think like this like the that he struggles with people that are bigger than our opponents that bigger than him, and they that's just not the case.
00:33:39
Cokeley Brothers
It plays against what he has as an advantage against a lot of his opponents, which is the raw power that he has. He's very powerful.
00:33:46
Ryne
Yeah, but he also is, he's also, he's also very defensive and very picky, which also helps him the bigger, the you know, the the larger he gets when ah and inside.
00:33:46
Cokeley Brothers
But whenever he's got to move more ass...
00:33:58
Cokeley Brothers
Sure. so So one aspect isn't affected by it, but another aspect is.
00:34:03
Ryne
I guess. That's one way you can put it, but.
00:34:07
Cokeley Brothers
It just... I mean, like, like he he went he hit his chest wrap against Zahid Valencia and it didn't work.
00:34:09
Reese
I don't, I mean, Zahid did not, there was there was no strength component for Zahid beating Dake, in my opinion.
00:34:18
Reese
He ducked him. Yeah.
00:34:18
Cokeley Brothers
No, like, especially with the move that he scored with.
00:34:21
Ryne
BRB must use bathroom.
00:34:22
Cokeley Brothers
But... But for being able to move Zahid around, he was it was clearly taking a serious toll on him. It was getting him super tired.
00:34:33
Cokeley Brothers
not and Not the type of tired that we've seen from Dake where he's been cutting weight and he's faded at the end of a match.
00:34:39
Cokeley Brothers
Because obviously he's not cutting weight.
00:34:40
Reese
You think it was different from that?
00:34:43
Cokeley Brothers
It's different from that because he's not cutting weight. it's It's different from that because it's he's tired from trying to move this...
00:34:48
Reese
You think it's worse? Yeah.
00:34:50
Cokeley Brothers
I mean, i don't know. It's probably not worse, but you're still fatigued. You're still worn out from trying to move this.
00:34:58
Cokeley Brothers
But just to do it. And like, I don't know if the heat is getting longer or not, but he just looks, he looks like a, I don't even know how to explain.
00:35:06
Cokeley Brothers
He looks like a, looks like a dark souls boss whenever he's wrestling.
00:35:10
Cokeley Brothers
He's so big.
00:35:13
Reese
He's a big boy. He, you know, he's kind of built like him too is Drayshon Ross. Kind of similar build.
00:35:17
Cokeley Brothers
Do who Dreshawn Rasta is more accurate accurately built like?
00:35:22
Cokeley Brothers
Michael Kemmerer.
00:35:24
Reese
Camera, yeah, that back, dude.
00:35:25
Cokeley Brothers
cut Call him Turtle Power.
00:35:27
Ryne

00:35:29
Cokeley Brothers
Yes. He and Kemmerer both have Turtle Power.

Cokeley Brothers
PJ Dookie show. ah
00:35:53
Cokeley Brothers
Reese, I'm sorry.
00:35:54
Ryne
He just could have wrestled both U-20s and U-23s and won them both.
00:36:03
Cokeley Brothers
Vince Buzakis went 0-2.
00:36:04
Reese
Oh, I know, I know. Well, don't apologize me. You're the one who was who was hyping him up before.
00:36:10
Ryne
He said, don't you dare say sorry to me, young man.
00:36:15
Cokeley Brothers
yeah Okay.
00:36:16
Reese
I didn't โ you didn't hear me saying look out for Vince Bazzacca.
00:36:20
Cokeley Brothers
So you've you've hopped off the train is what I'm hearing.
00:36:22
Reese
I think I heard from Willie that his training situation is not good right now.
00:36:27
Cokeley Brothers
Oh, that's not cool.
00:36:28
Ryne
Where's he training at?
00:36:29
Reese
I don't know, but that's what Willie โ
00:36:31
Cokeley Brothers
He's with Team Greco. Well, that's his... Okay, that doesn't really tell us anything.
00:36:36
Cokeley Brothers
um Okay. Aside from that, he landed Rabidu, wins the challenge break. He takes out Melvin Miller, And then...
00:36:47
Cokeley Brothers
and then
00:36:48
Reese
Yeah, that's โ did you you all see the Miller takedown?
00:36:53
Reese
He did that move where a guy's got an underhook and you swim out. And you know how, like, you've seen, like, Yanni or, like, Keith Gavin did it that one time where you swim and, like, wrap around the inside of the leg.
00:37:04
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. i don't know if I've ever... Yeah.
00:37:07
Ryne
I know exactly what you're talking about.
00:37:07
Reese
Instead of wrapping on the inside, he swam and and, like, went to the out the far leg, and it was just filthy. Yeah.
00:37:16
Ryne
and then back you like You like back trips, right?
00:37:19
Reese
I don't, I think he just finished like a head outside, ah from, it was nice moving the tournament.
00:37:23
Ryne
Well, maybe I don't know what you're talking about then.
00:37:29
Cokeley Brothers
That's cool though.
00:37:31
Cokeley Brothers
That's cool. Then Landon goes out, loses a seven o and 9-4 matches to PJ Duke. And PJ Duke is you're your U20 world team member.
00:37:43
Cokeley Brothers
And probably going to take U23s as well. And then we'll see about seniors.
00:37:49
Reese
did you watch any Did you watch any of the finals?
00:37:57
Cokeley Brothers
What day was it on?
00:37:59
Cokeley Brothers
Saturday?
00:38:00
Ryne
Oh, the U20 finals? Yeah, they were all on one day, Saturday.
00:38:03
Cokeley Brothers
Yes. Yeah, Saturday, right?
00:38:06
Cokeley Brothers
i was I was running a tournament in the morning and then I had massages at 2 and then I had a company party to go at at like to go to at like 7.
00:38:14
Reese
Oh. Company party. Like for, yeah.
00:38:18
Cokeley Brothers
Katie's company. Yeah.
00:38:21
Reese
What tournament were you what were you doing?
00:38:23
Cokeley Brothers
I was running a takedown tournament in the morning.
00:38:26
Reese
Like for your within your club or what?
00:38:28
Cokeley Brothers
Yep, for the club. Had 40 kids show up. That's what Southern Alabama's like, baby.
00:38:35
Ryne
For a takedown tournament, it's not bad.
00:38:37
Cokeley Brothers
That's all right.
00:38:40
Cokeley Brothers
It took about two and a half hours. That was
00:38:43
Ryne
but you didn't do true second correctly.
00:38:46
Cokeley Brothers
it. Dude, I'm not getting into that.
00:38:50
Ryne
You didn't do it correctly, though.
00:38:51
Cokeley Brothers
I'm not...
00:38:52
Reese
I don't know what you're talking about.
00:38:53
Cokeley Brothers
Ryan, Ryan, Ryan, I didn't, I didn't, it wasn't my choice.
00:38:55
Ryne
You screwed yourself. I know.
00:38:57
Cokeley Brothers
It wasn't my choice.
00:38:58
Ryne
I know, but you screwed yourself.
00:39:00
Cokeley Brothers
As a matter of fact, the God bless his heart. He wanted to do college world series rules where we we would wrestle a true second.
00:39:12
Cokeley Brothers
And then the winner of true second would go wrestle the first place person again. And then we would do that until somebody, until everybody except for first place had lost twice.
00:39:23
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, Wrestling Tournament has never done that. Ever.
00:39:26
Ryne
That'd be kind of sick.
00:39:29
Cokeley Brothers
No, it's too much wrestling, dude. It's too...
00:39:31
Ryne
With only 40 kids, you could make it work.
00:39:34
Cokeley Brothers
I know. I didn't want to, Ryan. I didn't want to. And then one of the brackets was round robin. How are we supposed to do that?
00:39:42
Ryne
You don't. You just do round robin at that point.
00:39:44
Cokeley Brothers
Exactly. You just don't. You just don't. 74 kilograms Jaden James... at you twenty s jane james
00:39:57
Cokeley Brothers
Did he shock the world?
00:39:58
Reese
Were you shocked by the ceiling match?
00:40:01
Ryne
Were you not? Were you guys not? If you're Joe Seeley and you just got tech slammed, tech smashed by a dude who is still going to be in high school and will eventually be coming to your college, are you thinking maybe I got a GTFO?
00:40:07
Reese
It's disheartening, for sure.
00:40:20
Cokeley Brothers
like, man, I can't even, I can't even break the lineup now.
00:40:20
Reese
I would be thinking that. and
00:40:23
Cokeley Brothers
And then this guy is going to be here after another year.
00:40:23
Reese
And that's the... yeah That's like the least of his worries, honestly.
00:40:28
Cokeley Brothers
yeah He should have GTFO'd a long time ago.
00:40:33
Reese
Yeah. I mean, it feels like a Facundo kind of situation.
00:40:33
Cokeley Brothers
Like it.
00:40:38
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Good, but not great.
00:40:42
Ryne
He just smashed Joe Seeley, guys. I mean, like,
00:40:45
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, it was, it was, it was bad.
00:40:49
Ryne
it was even more impressive in person. You're just watching it happen. You're just like, oh, my God.
00:40:53
Reese
Yeah, he is. He really good. He's like, he's special for sure, which I feel like at this point, it's just they're just everywhere now.
00:41:02
Reese
Freaking. Yeah. You know, you know what they say?
00:41:02
Cokeley Brothers
Dude, there's a lot of specials out there.
00:41:06
Ryne
first Especially, especially coming out of that KD training center.
00:41:07
Reese
you know what that guy? said
00:41:12
Ryne
A lot of good special kids coming out of there, right, Sammy?
00:41:19
Cokeley Brothers
I was impressed with, uh, Alessio Parenton, um, coming out and taking fourth. Yeah. So juicy. They also came back and took third. That looked good. Um,
00:41:31
Cokeley Brothers
But yeah, I mean, Jaden James, may even be he even beat Will Denny. like goes out Goes out to the...
00:41:37
Ryne
Well, Denny had a great tournament, man.
00:41:39
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, he did. And then Ladarian handles Jaden James 6-1 and 15-2.
00:41:46
Ryne
The sixth one was a lot closer than the score.
00:41:46
Cokeley Brothers
And D-Lockett.
00:41:50
Cokeley Brothers
um Well, I'm sure it was like a last-minute score situation, jump time, making it look a lot closer than it should have.
00:41:54
Ryne
Yeah, I mean, honestly, like, Jaden James had, like, Jaden James was in that match. The second match, he was not in. But that first match, he was in.
00:42:03
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, that happens.
00:42:05
Reese
I saw the first match. What happened in the second one?
00:42:08
Ryne
ah Lodarian just opened it up more.
00:42:16
Reese
I saw his interview. I watched his interview. You know what he said? This pertains to you. He said, I got... Did I tell you this already? No. He said, I got four... or He's like... I got the rest of my life to hang out with my friends. I need to focus on becoming a world and Olympic champ, NCAA champ.
00:42:35
Reese
And that's what ah this one's grandpa told him on the phone. Well, it's not just hanging out with my friends. I want to do stuff other than wrestling. Oh, I know.
00:42:44
Ryne
cooper you do hey Cooper, you do whatever makes you happy.
00:42:49
Reese
Yeah, it's just funny because he was you know he was kind of blowing off that advice. And then you hear Ladarian Lockett say the exact same thing.
00:42:59
Ryne
I mean, you do have you do have some lofty goals you know that you've set for yourself. So there is some you know some of that ah you should take to heart, some of that advice. you know Obviously, there there's a time and place.
00:43:16
Ryne
you did You don't want it to be all fun and games, right? You don't want to um just always be hanging out with your friends and whatnot. Sometimes you're you want to be...
00:43:27
Ryne
training and studying and doing all that good stuff right i'm not trying to lecture you dude i'm just giving you advice
00:43:32
Reese
I mean, um I don't really hang out with people that often, that's the thing.
00:43:43
Cokeley Brothers
I'm glad you guys handled that while I was sending out a tweet. I was going to be very mean about the tweet, but I, somebody, somebody responded to what I said about the size difference.
00:43:47
Reese
you tweeting? Gotcha.
00:43:53
Cokeley Brothers
and he says, there's weight classes, literally one of the only sports where you can't complain about size.
00:44:00
Cokeley Brothers
And then, oh yeah, dude, I'm an idiot.
00:44:03
Cokeley Brothers
Uh, 79 kilograms.
00:44:04
Reese
Wait, so what'd you say?
00:44:06
Cokeley Brothers
kilograms
00:44:10
Cokeley Brothers
Brock Manton on a wins the challenge bracket and then loses to Will Henkel. 10-0. 10-0.
00:44:17
Cokeley Brothers
No question.
00:44:17
Ryne
Will Hinkle looks good.
00:44:21
Cokeley Brothers
How do you think he would have looked if he was wrestling in this bracket?
00:44:21
Ryne
But let me ask you this, William. William, when are you going to get into that Penn State lineup?
00:44:30
Cokeley Brothers
You got two options. You got Penn State lineup or the portal.
00:44:36
Reese
Those are the two options.
00:44:38
Cokeley Brothers
Or the portal.
00:44:38
Reese
or Or just hit the bench like a lot of those guys do, apparently.
00:44:42
Cokeley Brothers
Those guys are like, I'll take the rings. I'll take i'll take a a team ring every four year ever for four years. I'm cool with that.
00:44:50
Cokeley Brothers
Those are nice. I'd be happy with that, honestly. i wouldn't I wouldn't complain.
00:44:55
Cokeley Brothers
but I also didn't just make a U20 world team this weekend. Yeah.
00:45:03
Ryne
What do you think? Because he's probably going to be an 84 pounder, right? Or is he 74? He'll probably be 84. He's pretty lanky.
00:45:13
Cokeley Brothers
I mean, what? He just wrestled 79 kilos. That's 174. So
00:45:19
Cokeley Brothers
ah he could do 74 or 84. um But both of those are, well, Levi's got one more year, so it could we could work out.
00:45:26
Reese
Well, Levi's got one more year, so.
00:45:31
Cokeley Brothers
But then there's probably somebody else coming into play eventually, right?
00:45:36
Ryne
Yeah. Duke's going to have to move up. What's his name? We'll probably move up.
00:45:47
Ryne
i don't know. We just figured that's probably how it'll go to fit everyone in.
00:45:52
Cokeley Brothers
probably so I think I think somebody's going to sit the bench.
00:45:53
Reese
you think's going happen with Duke, K-Sack, and
00:45:56
Cokeley Brothers
I think i think Duke is going to wrestle 57. Mesenbrink is going to wrestle 65. And then Hankel, 74. Duke and KSAC?
00:46:02
Reese
You really don't โ so you think โ you think in folk style, like it's not close between him and K-Sack?
00:46:04
Cokeley Brothers
seventy four
00:46:10
Cokeley Brothers
duke in k like
00:46:12
Cokeley Brothers
It might be. But who do you think is going to get better over the next calendar year?
00:46:16
Reese
I don't know. I think they're both extremely good.
00:46:20
Ryne
I think they both could get better.
00:46:21
Cokeley Brothers
Could you see Kasach working his way back down to 49? To
00:46:24
Ryne
Why would he be doing that?
00:46:27
Cokeley Brothers
take out Van Ness.
00:46:27
Reese
I would see Duke making 49 before K-Sack.
00:46:33
Cokeley Brothers
Maybe. I don't know. I don't know. Either way, somebody's on the bench.
00:46:41
Cokeley Brothers
Just don't know who it is yet.
00:46:45
Reese
man. What a weight.
00:46:49
Ryne
just Oh, you just got beat in the semifinals saw of the softball World Series.
00:46:56
Ryne
no fifth No fifth national championship for them. No fifth straight.
00:47:01
Cokeley Brothers
Oh. Where?
00:47:02
Reese
Dang. Who beat him?
00:47:05
Ryne
Sidebar. Texas Tech, I believe. Yep, Texas Tech.
00:47:11
Cokeley Brothers
Reese, you said 86. What a wait. Did you mean that?
00:47:14
Reese
um meant like what a what is final series really is what I meant.
00:47:17
Cokeley Brothers
The final series. Electric. Electric.
Aiden Sinclair's Series Loss
00:47:19
Ryne
Dude, Aiden Sinclair, you got to feel for the guy.
00:47:22
Reese
I feel greatly for him.
00:47:22
Ryne
Two years in a row, he lo he loses at three matches or best of three whatever.
00:47:28
Reese
And he had it. He had it in match two, dude. He freaking had it.
00:47:32
Cokeley Brothers
That was a crazy... i don't even... Did that... Do you think they should have given McInerney four there?
00:47:40
Reese
uh i don't know dude it was weird like another i don't know like bar when bar uh
00:47:43
Ryne
Dude, you should see some of the stuff they were trying to give four for. And then some of the stuff they wouldn't give for. It was like, it's it's like, where what are these referees seeing?
00:47:53
Cokeley Brothers
Are we losing touch with the sport?
00:48:00
Reese
Crotch ah lifted him in the final. Do you remember that? And they gave him four. And I just don't see how that was four because Aiden was like on his belly or on his knees.
00:48:11
Reese
How do you get four out of that?
00:48:13
Cokeley Brothers
Right. Shouldn't it be from the guy's feet to his back?
00:48:19
Reese
And I think they challenged it and they upheld it.
00:48:22
Cokeley Brothers
Like, ah, Sammy Julian scored it, so...
00:48:27
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. What a series.
00:48:30
Reese
Yeah, McAnally is, you know, you can't can't say anything other than he's a gamer. he's
00:48:36
Reese
He's turning into a real ah real problem. it can He could definitely be the guy, the top guy, based on those matches.
00:48:36
Cokeley Brothers
He's a gamer.
00:48:44
Cokeley Brothers
At 86 or 86, 184.
00:48:49
Reese
Him and Ferrari will be interesting.
00:48:49
Cokeley Brothers
I mean him, Ferrari, Welsh, Sinclair.
00:48:54
Reese
Yeah, Welsh. Welsh is amazing, too.
00:48:57
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah. Welsh looked really good.
00:48:59
Cokeley Brothers
ah Zach Ryder, who I was kind of hoping we would see this weekend, but that's okay, I guess. Yeah. Yeah.
00:49:08
Reese
I just can't believe Ohio State blew it and lost that dude. Come on, Tom.
00:49:13
Cokeley Brothers
over Carson Harchla.
00:49:16
Reese
I thought, I mean, was, oh, because he wanted to go 74. He didn't want to go 84.
00:49:20
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know. They started Carson Harchla over him.
00:49:24
Reese
you sure that or was it?
00:49:24
Ryne
He wanted to go 74 this year.
00:49:27
Cokeley Brothers
think...
00:49:28
Cokeley Brothers
Am i Am i imagining things?
00:49:30
Reese
I was under the impression that he was going 84 because he'll be going 84 this next year.
00:49:35
Cokeley Brothers
I could be imagining things. And he wrestled 184 in red shirt, like it at an open.
00:49:40
Reese
Yeah. i think I think what they did was started.
00:49:42
Cokeley Brothers
I could be...
00:49:43
Ryne
Who was 184 for Ohio State this year?
00:49:43
Reese
What was he thinking?
00:49:46
Cokeley Brothers
Shoemate, or not Shoemate, Geog. Rogatsky.
00:49:49
Ryne
Rogatsky. Yeah, why wouldn't you just let the man wrestle 84 then?
00:49:54
Reese
yeah what what did what was he think and what were they thinking?
00:49:55
Cokeley Brothers
Let the man wrestle.
00:50:02
Cokeley Brothers
You blew it.
00:50:06
Cokeley Brothers
You blew it.
00:50:13
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, and and then, yeah, 184 is going to be...
00:50:14
Ryne
Now they got to run it with Dylan Fishback.
00:50:16
Cokeley Brothers
184 is going to be bananas next year. But for now, we're going to take a look at 92 kilograms where there was an upset in the challenge bracket from a one Dylan Bechtold.
Bracket Upsets and Underdogs
00:50:31
Reese
Yeah, who did he beat?
00:50:32
Ryne
Dylan was on fire this weekend.
00:50:34
Cokeley Brothers
Can anybody here tell me where Dylan Bechtold wrestles?
00:50:36
Reese
Was it Merrill? It was Merrill.
00:50:40
Ryne
He wrestles for Doesn't his brother go to McCourt?
00:50:42
Cokeley Brothers
He wrestles for the Bucknell Buffalo.
00:50:45
Reese
Oh, that's why i said Buffalo.
00:50:47
Cokeley Brothers
Are they Buffalo?
00:50:51
Cokeley Brothers
Are they Buffalo?
00:50:52
Reese
I don't know. i just said Buffalo a university.
00:50:53
Ryne
He's got a brother who who's a heavyweight. I'm pretty sure wrestles at McCourt. Maybe he doesn't wrestle at McCourt. But he's got a brother that's a heavyweight in high school.
00:51:03
Cokeley Brothers
He beat Cody Merrill and then went on to kind of get throttled by Mirasola.
00:51:12
Cokeley Brothers
But he also, he also beats Bechtold beat, beat Mirasola or Sunny Sasso as well.
00:51:12
Reese
The Mirasol boys are looking good.
00:51:24
Cokeley Brothers
So Bechtold pretty solid, pretty solid.
00:51:26
Ryne
he had a pretty good year this year, didn't he?
00:51:32
Cokeley Brothers
Let me take a look.
00:51:39
Cokeley Brothers
I need to log in to be able to view it.
00:51:44
Cokeley Brothers
ah Round of 16 is a true freshman at 197. Not bad.
00:51:50
Cokeley Brothers
Lost to Wyatt Volker and Joey Novak.
00:51:56
Cokeley Brothers
But his wins... I mean, Evan Bates is a good win.
00:51:58
Ryne
Oh, he goes it goes to Oral J. Roberts High School. That's where he goes.
00:52:03
Cokeley Brothers

00:52:07
Cokeley Brothers
97 kilos.
00:52:07
Ryne
he's committed to Lehigh.
00:52:12
Cokeley Brothers
97 kilos. Camden McDaniel takes out Cade Ziola in the battle of the Nebraska Huskers to face off against Justin Rademacher, who beats him.
00:52:23
Cokeley Brothers
Justin Rademacher, back on your world team. 125 kilograms.
00:52:27
Ryne
Yeah, these upper weights were, except for heavyweight, heavyweight was great.
00:52:27
Cokeley Brothers
Quite the heavyweight.
00:52:31
Ryne
But the, but 90, 80, or 86, even the challenge bracket, 86 was blah.
00:52:36
Ryne
86, 92, 97 were just kind of
00:52:41
Cokeley Brothers
little bit.
00:52:42
Reese
97, dude, what's his name was just not and showing a high IQ um when he was wrestling with the Nebraska dude.
00:52:55
Reese
No, at 92, I mean. Was it 92 or 97? The freshman.
00:52:59
Cokeley Brothers
Well, I don't know who you, who?
00:53:00
Ryne
Talking about Rademacher?
00:53:02
Reese
ro Who Rademacher wrestled? Nick Daniel.
00:53:05
Cokeley Brothers
McDaniel.
00:53:05
Ryne
Rademacher wrestled McDaniel.
00:53:07
Reese
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. he would du it he He just got in a lot of positions where he should have scored and he like did some not-so-smart stuff. so Maybe he can figure that out.
00:53:16
Cokeley Brothers
Interesting.
00:53:17

00:54:06
Ryne
Dude, it was so ugly.
00:54:07
Cokeley Brothers
And then he, then he just can't figure out how to be Cole Mirasola and loses four, one and five, two.
00:54:14
Reese
He cannot. It's pretty weird. I feel i think it's weird.
00:54:22
Ryne
I thought it was weird.
00:54:22
Cokeley Brothers
I think I agree. Dude.
00:54:23
Ryne
I i thought the match with Hopki was going to be a lot better than that.
00:54:28
Reese
Yeah, he made Hoppy look not so good.
00:54:28
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know where Kobe Merrill is going to go. don't know where Kobe Merrill is going to go, but no.

Ryne
He's, he's when I was state stuff all the time.
00:54:47
Cokeley Brothers
Oh, okay. Well, there you go
00:54:50

00:54:58
Cokeley Brothers
Well, there you go.
00:55:01
Ryne
and so him and Cody, are they real? Are they brothers?
00:55:05
Cokeley Brothers
I have no idea. and don't even think they went to the same high school.
00:55:10
Cokeley Brothers
They're both big dudes who wrestle from California and are just so good.
00:55:17
Ryne
And they they look very similar. And they look very similar.
00:55:20
Reese
And one letter apart in their names.
00:55:22
Ryne
And one's Cody and one's Kobe. Come on now.
00:55:24
Cokeley Brothers

Cokeley Brothers
Ziegler is who I'm talking about. And then Daniel Guanajuato took second. Cool, cool.
00:56:46
Cokeley Brothers
61 kilos. we already talked about this dude, Nick Buzakis, who I think he scored. He gave up nine points the entire tournament. And I think he scored 20, 30, 40, 50, 50 plus 31.
00:56:54
Ryne
And they're all in the finals, right?
00:57:00
Cokeley Brothers
He scored 81 points and gave up nine.
00:57:06
Cokeley Brothers
That's, that's probably that, you know, it's crazy. That's the second most impressive staff from an Ohio state wrestler this weekend. Second, most impressive.
00:57:15
Cokeley Brothers
Brandon Cannon wrestled half a college season in two days.
00:57:19
Reese
Oh, well, half a college season in the modern era.
00:57:22
Cokeley Brothers
Modern times. Yes. Which is he he wrote this year, this NCAA season, he wrestled 29 matches, including big tens and NCAAs.
00:57:31
Reese
He wrestled half of that.
00:57:33
Cokeley Brothers
And then, uh, he goes out and in two days, he wrestles 14 matches.
00:57:42
Cokeley Brothers
Loses in like round two to Daniel Cardenas and then goes all the way out the backside and takes third.
00:57:50
Cokeley Brothers
Including like 11 tech falls.
00:57:54
Reese
That's crazy. He's ah he's a mystery.
00:57:55
Cokeley Brothers
Ridiculous.
00:58:00
Cokeley Brothers
I mean, I think, I think he's going to be a a name next year.
00:58:04
Ryne
Well, what weights he going to be at?
00:58:04
Reese
Maybe. um man, probably.
00:58:07
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know. Whatever, whatever way he, I honestly, 65 might be a better, better move for him, but like,
00:58:11
Reese
What did he finish? Like round of 16 this year? Okay. 65 is definitely going to be different from this year's 57.
00:58:14
Cokeley Brothers
Run run at 12.
00:58:17
Cokeley Brothers
Pretty sure.
00:58:17
Ryne
any He's that's what I i read. i read that he will not be able to make 57 anymore.
00:58:25
Cokeley Brothers
Yeah, he was run at 12 and he lost.
00:58:25
Reese
and... like five sixty five is definitely goingnna be different from this year is fifty seven
00:58:30
Ryne
So what about beard in?
00:58:34
Cokeley Brothers
He's so so.
00:58:36
Ryne
you Do you move Ethan Bearden down to 57? Oof. I feel
00:58:41
Cokeley Brothers
Or he just doesn't make lineup.
00:58:42
Ryne
or ah feel like you got to have that guy in the lineup.
00:58:45
Cokeley Brothers
I don't know. let me Let me take a look at Ohio State real quick.
00:58:46
Ryne
You know who grew like a weed? and You know who I thought was going to be a 33-41 pounder and he's shaping up to be much bigger than that?
00:58:56
Cokeley Brothers
Really? He seems so short at NCAAs. He seems so stout.
00:58:58
Ryne
He was 70 kilograms of this weekend, so...
00:59:06
Ryne
i say I don't know if he placed or not.
00:59:09
Cokeley Brothers
So Ohio State's lineup right now is one of at 125, Brennan McCrone or Vinnie Kilcary. 33, Ben DeVino. 41, Jesse Mendez. 49, Ethan Stiles. I forgot about Stiles. my God.
00:59:22
Cokeley Brothers
57 currently is Brandon Cannon. And then 65 is, well, 57 is Brandon Cannon or Cody Chittum. And then 65 is Patty Gallagher or Ethan Burden.
00:59:31
Ryne
No, they're going to...
00:59:32
Cokeley Brothers
74 is Carson Hartzla.
00:59:32
Ryne
think they want to redshirt Chittum.
00:59:37
Cokeley Brothers
Sure. Sure. 74 is Carson Hartzler, 84. Dylan Fishback, 97. Seth's roommate and heavyweight is Nick Feldman. You also have Luke Geog and Ryder Rogatsky up at 97. And you can drop one of them down to 184. Well, not 184.
00:59:54
Cokeley Brothers
I don't... Dude, I don't know how I feel about Carson
00:59:57
Ryne

He's like 180 or 174, right?
01:00:04
Cokeley Brothers
He's 157.
01:00:06
Ryne
He'd be a 57 pounder.
01:00:07
Ryne
Maybe they just start him at 57 this next year. Because they want to redshirt Cody Chittum. ah read I read that that's what Tom tom Ryan was saying.

01:06:31
Cokeley Brothers
Okay, so Brock Mantenona failed to make a world team, but Bo Mantenona also probably doesn't make a world team at 79 kilos, but he won you 23 nationals, so that's pretty cool.
01:06:32
Reese
