LOL what. Not at the stat, the reply

As a Cal fan, I would like to know. At least that didn't make a difference between Cal making or not making prelims. I was there and it was a super fun meet! Once in your life, go to the men's NCAA Championships. It's a little late, but I wrote a blog post trying to predict the winner. It...

I'm sure Heath Thorpe is just happy to get his leap into the code at all, especially since FIG turned it down last time because "that stuff is for girls". Not sure what's up with Hoopes. He was inconsistent early in his NCAA career because of a nagging injury. Hopefully, that has not returned.

The FIG decided to recognize a leap on floor - the Thorpe. A straddle jump with 360° turn. B value and counting towards the balance requirement. I figured they would this time because of the new artistry requirements on floor.

I think there won't be a second ticket drop for gymnastics. The whole process sounds like a massive headache.

LA is not sad. I could stay there for free because I have family there. But I'm not paying that. No way. I can see a lot of the same US people in the NCAA for free (MAG) I can go to a whole Worlds for less money. Nope.

It's Jason Buttons. He mostly coaches kids.

A women's NCAA judge was interviewed on Gymcastic https://tinyurl.com/5a95uxk7 I normally don't listen to that show but for some reason listened to this episode. 45:17 – Judge Jason Buttons Interview Begins 46:00 – “They Don’t Know What They’re Doing” 47:03 – Skill Recognition Problems at the...

I highly doubt the women's NCAA is going to an open code. Most of the fans would probably have a riot. I'm not that familiar with the women's NCAA, but it seems to me most of the complaints are about the judging, and I don't think changing the scoring system would fix that. People can screw up...

There are people out there who believe that the women's NCAA should go to an open ended code, probably because of all the complaints about the scoring. I think this has zero chance of actually happening, but I'm curious about what the scores would actually look like if they did that. I'm not...

It wasn't clear what she meant, but this makes sense. How many people are going to watch women's flag football? People who follow the NCAA in general are betting that ISU is going to add women's flag football or women's wrestling.

Behold - this looks pretty stagnant to me. Women's gymnastics is not one of the fastest-growing sports in the NCAA. That isn't 9 programs in the last decade. 2028 is in the future and may not even happen, and two were lost. So that's 6 in the last decade. What matters is net growth. The total...

They will likely add women's flag football or maybe women's wrestling. KJ Kindler is wrong about one thing - women's gymnastics isn't a fast-growing NCAA sport as far as participation is concerned. Very far from it. It's been basically stagnant for years.

Khoi plans to compete at US Nationals. He will likely have to go through the Men's National Qualifier this summer. Not sure if he will add other events back - he had a knee issue. He could still make L.A. as a specialist, assuming the team is chosen the same way as 2024. These PH specialists...

I don't think anyone knows.
