I guess you're not counting the Bill Farrell which was a Senior International event. Or did you simply forget? It was earlier this year, oh, wait, the same year as our qualifying event? Where the tournament is held at is immaterial. It was an international Senior level event. No, I am not saying just pick a certain athlete, I am saying pick the best person, at the time, to qualify the weight. The Russians have been doing this for years, which is why they always have a full team. Maybe we can learn something. I agree with Bhabbaganoosh, at least then we would be sure to have someone wrestling well "this year" rather than going off of a result from a year ago. Or we could take your approach and, well, look at the results, and keep doing the same thing to get the same type of failure--isn't that a form of insanity? Again, I understand this is hard to comprehend, but this is only for the weight qualification process. I agree we need a solid process for the world and Olympic team. Once earned, then it's the spot for that person that qualified and then wins the trials. To qualify the weight, yes, I am okay with discretion--100%. Our current process doesn't take into consideration, the athletes current state of mind. Maybe Zane had a great year, but has been struggling with weight, or health or motivation, who knows but all of this should be considered in the weight qualification process. Now we have one event left in Turkey for a weight that we have multiple age group and senior level world medalists and is one of our strongest weights--not qualified. But we want to argue our process worked and should be continued?
