Wrestling fans, if you follow college wrestling at all check out this article from USA Wresetling/TheMat...

Do you agree or disagree? After the B1G tournament this year, I was really kind of shocked at how much inactivity is permitted.

I like no RT unless you secure back points. But this has to be in conjunction with refs calling stalling on top (or even bottom) man.

Anything that makes college wrestling at least as entertaining as watching paint dry gets my vote.

The Bo-Zeek match was a classic example of this.
tight waist ride with NO ACTION what so ever!
not even a hint of trying to score from the top.

If referees would call stalling, we could avoid altering the sport. However, two things I'd like to see...

No RT point if NF is not earned.

Escapes can be given for no point but only after a stop in action.
