DiCello with a 10.0 that was not a 10.0 also.

Florida meet made zero sense…but at least they are going toe to toe with Michigan and Oklahoma both of whom have crazy scoring to get into the 198s.

Idk, scoring was wack all over, Helen Hu got an impossible score. You are not honestly going to say Missouri was the better squad that night?
 
No, clearly not. But it was like the judges toked up for DiCello’s routine and then had to sober up for Thomas and Wong who might have deserved 10s.

I definitely think the rules need to change or be clarified for arm swings on landing. If you spend a minute pinwheeling your arms around so as to not take a step, that also shows a lack of control/proper position on landing.

Missouri wasn’t better than Florida. But they weren’t, overall, scored the same way.

I think they need to figure out how to make the won/loss record count for something. Coaches and programs would be much more interested in making judging more consistent and closer to code if that were the case. Right now, there is no incentive really to address judging.

Missouri doesn’t get the respect it deserves.
While Florida was the better team in their meet, the point differential between the two teams was NOT 1.725 but the scores say differently.

This will never happen. It makes zero sense to base thing around a win/loss record because the difference in conference strength and weakness is substantial.
You can be 1-6 or 0-7 in the SEC but still be a top program. All 8 teams are in the top 19 currently.
Missouri is 1-2 in the SEC at the moment and Georgia and Arkansas are 1-3 at the moment.
But you throw Missouri , Arkansas, or Georgia in MAC, EAGL, ECAC, MRGC, MPSF and they would likely go undefeated in conference.

When you look at non-conference match ups, Arkansas has the most difficult schedule in the entire NCAA. Are they going to have more losses than wins, probably, but Wieber wants her team up against the very best they can schedule. They are currently at a 3-5 record.

Win/Loss record does count for regular season conference champions, but when it comes to regionals, NQS is still more fair than win/loss record.

Judging DOES need to be fixed, but unfortunately, we all asked for more TV coverage.
We got that, but now we see 10s a lot more because let’s face it, the 10.0 is a big sell.

Coaches can ask for the judging to be fixed, but ultimately the sports channels and their producers are the ones who end up controlling a lot of the judging. A former NCAA judge even stated that she was approached by meet producers and was told how many 10s to give out and who they were to go to, even if the routine was not quite perfect.
 
I need to know where the judge is who gave Clark a perfect score for her FTY gets their drugs.

I’m going to be so sad when KJC retires. The majority of the commentators are hard to listen to and incredibly uncritical of the gymnastics happening before them, and a lot of them do not know what a stuck landing is. To be fair, they’re in an awkward position because half of the deductions you could point out will probably be ignored.

Still not over this getting 8.75. I’d love to see the routine of the LU gymnast who got the same score.
 
I have no idea how you can get that to an 8.75. She had 2 falls, missing the dismount completely, never mind the hot mess on the low bar. Her start value can’t be more than 9.8, and possibly less than that.
