Nolf is a freak; the way he innovates is awesome! And your videos do a great job of picking up on the unique strategic, tactical, and technical decisions these wrestlers are making.
Yeah I was lucky enough to get into wrestling when Nolf was a freshman at Penn State. Guy is super creative. And thanks man. I'm working on more videos. Should have one posted today or tomorrow
what Dake did was EPIC. Dake gave the 3x college champ Nolf a serious lesson > Oh you're here to wrestle ? There are LEVELS to this sport. Let me show you - - BOOM - -
Nolf did not change levels to give Dake the pick. He simply took one step and Dake was on his ankle immediately. A few gut-wrenches later and the match was over.
This is just ELITE high level Wrestling...and it's a GREAT way to get on the attack vs high level Wrestlers with great head and hands defense. This is the TYPE of shot you can get on an RBY, Yianni...whoever. I've coached...(as the low level guy, not as Cael or Bono or Brands OBVIOUSLY) in the B1G, and this is one of the things we've TRIED to get kids to do...keep position and then it goes with those Marinelli types who just keep pushing, but this as well, you've gotta time that step. The problem is...it's not easy and it takes a LOT of Wrestling to break the habit of just reacting and getting your hips back(ESPECIALLY) if you've given up a TD. So this is the type of thing if you work out with a friend or buddy or if you go and train with a club, pull a guy aside and spend 20 minutes after practice JUST having a guy moving in and out and you start to get ready to down block and then you IMMEDIATELY go back into a re-shot. But...honestly, end of the day...I don't know if this is really a technical thing. I don't know this is a technique, this is something you feel, you have to have incredible reactions....and it's just a mindset. Attack...attack...attack. And that's not easy to drill into a guy and it's LITERALLY been the thing thats put Iowa guys for decades who weren't the most talented Wrestlers. The Brands weren't the most talented, or so many other guys who just keep coming and aren't afraid to give up a TD or put themselves in bad spots. Ben Askren was not an above average talent at the D1 level. Top 20 all time Wrestler(arguably). This just comes down to Wrestling. Ben used to LOVE to just Wrestle for HOURS. He's an asshole, but he worked so hard, these types of reactions that take repetition, they became second nature. Now...when you combine that relentless, attacking, fearless Wrestling with elite talent, you get Mcllravy, you get Penn State, you get guys who are up 3-2 with 30 seconds left who score the final TD. You get Myles Amine scoring multiple TDs vs one of the best defensive 84 pounders ever in Aaron Brooks in the B1G finals. So another great video and this is absolutely the stuff kids should be watching and learning... And remember, after ALL the work you put in, HAVE FUN...let it go!!!
Love your breakdowns. I'm not much of a wrestler, but have done martial arts since I was a kid and a pretty salty old purple belt in BJJ, so I'm a pretty good grappler. I learn so much from content like this and can make it work for me in a jiu-jitsu setting. Good stuff.
@@earnyourgold It really is...and I just left a LOONG post that is TLTR for most, but the key here...is situational Wrestling, live Wrestling as much as you can so this becomes 2nd nature. This type of Wrestling is a MINDSET I'm additional to just training yourself to react like this. Most Wrestlers are happy to defend and then try to get to get to their ties. The greats look for ANY opening to get past that head and hands D that is SOO tough at this level.
2:35 he leaves only on arm on the guy to bait him into releasing the wizzer and rolling out, then locks down with both arms for rear control right when the guy does so. Brilliant.
Muscle twitch, hip fake, foot stomp is a great time to "go". My son would but almost every other kid I coached would not. Heck its in nature with the animals. Fake charge.
In order to fake, you need your lead foot further ahead to stop the forward momentum. Its probably a tell to see the foot stay forward, and it leaves that ankle for the picking. nice moves.
Works better that way but it can still be done with right vs right. The one that Jason Nolf did against Isaiah Martinez was a right vs right. The one in the thumbnail
@@earnyourgold I just remember Martin's re-attacks were so fast, it's almost like he shoots at the same time as his opponent. Almost like he knows the shot is coming and is already countering it before it comes. This video reminded me of him. Great video by the way, as usual.
I remember watching a video of Nolf at Disney Duals when he was still with Young Guns taking this shot. He also does this strange reach across low single that he used in a recent Freestyle match. th-cam.com/video/gPjUfDYJCNI/w-d-xo.html
Obviously Jason Nolf is an amazing wrestler, his technique is great but his ability to pick ankles is simply that he has a faster reaction time than most of his opponents, cant teach that.

Fantastic analysis! I'm still surprised at how many wrestlers don't capitalize on those brief moments after a failed shot or fake like Nolf does.
Yet another good video. I like how you show the move being done on high caliber guys. The clip of Cael, Nolf's coach, was the icing on the cake.
Thank you. I appreciate it. Had to take a break for awhile, but I’m posting two videos tomorrow that mesh together. Tune in for those as well.
Dake gave nolf a taste of his own medicine at the trials, did exactly this.
Wow I didn't even realize that. As soon as Nolf faked Dake dropped to the ankle. Nice catch

These are excellent videos. Stop motion with clear concise narrative. Good topics.

Thanks man. Glad that they can help you out
Another great breakdown. To easy for long guys like Sanderson. especially because those bigger guys get more out of position when they fake!
Thanks man I appreciate it. Going to try to keep them coming
Great breakdown! Lengthy Wrestlers take advantage of this!
another great breakdown! love it man keep it up!
Thank you! Will do!
Great stuff, really helpful to understand the intricacies of these positions and scrambles.`
Thank you

Quality video brother. This is straight up filthy dirty technique lol
I've noticed him use this technique before as well. Yianni also does this.
Thank you man. Yeah it's pretty nice. It punishes him for doing exactly what he's taught to do
Love the breakdowns

Great video's, and analysis!

super great stuff!
Thank you!
Awesome video ⚡️
Thank you
You have a good eye.
Thank you. I had to watch a lot of wrestling in order to get better since it’s not big where I’m from
Great commentary.
Thank you
Nice video!
Thank you!
Love the content
Thank you
nice work
Thank you
What would this move be called?
Muscle twitch, hip fake, foot stomp is a great time to "go". My son would but almost every other kid I coached would not. Heck its in nature with the animals. Fake charge.
This is sick
In order to fake, you need your lead foot further ahead to stop the forward momentum. Its probably a tell to see the foot stay forward, and it leaves that ankle for the picking. nice moves.
This is solid
Insane how Jordan didnt get taken down there. 3:15
Does this only work on left vs right lead leg or would it still work off of right v right?
Works better that way but it can still be done with right vs right. The one that Jason Nolf did against Isaiah Martinez was a right vs right. The one in the thumbnail
Does Myles Martin do a similar re-attack?
I'm not sure. I've watched most of his college matches while he was competing, but it never stuck out to me. I'll have to rewatch them
@@earnyourgold I just remember Martin's re-attacks were so fast, it's almost like he shoots at the same time as his opponent. Almost like he knows the shot is coming and is already countering it before it comes. This video reminded me of him. Great video by the way, as usual.
Daaaaaaaaaaamb this is sweet!!!!
Yeah it punishes the guy for faking and he even hit Jordan Burroughs with it. It’s also what Kyle Dake did to him at the Olympic Trials
Would this work in MMA?
Good one
Thank you
I remember watching a video of Nolf at Disney Duals when he was still with Young Guns taking this shot. He also does this strange reach across low single that he used in a recent Freestyle match. th-cam.com/video/gPjUfDYJCNI/w-d-xo.html
I'm not sure if it's taught, but it looks like they always look for the ankle on a sprawl. As if it's turned instinctual.
Another hit!
I try my best
Mastered
John Smith did this alot too
Yeah he was a beast
Nice pin on Martinez
hey your mic volume is super low just saying
Thanks for letting me know. I’ll adjust it
Obviously Jason Nolf is an amazing wrestler, his technique is great but his ability to pick ankles is simply that he has a faster reaction time than most of his opponents, cant teach that.
You can build that habit with repetitions. I’ve seen plenty of wrestlers use the technique. Most wrestlers are just extremely defensive-minded
Yo set up a match for me and who ever
Hey Announcer dude I will beat you in a match
Let’s call Flo up and set it up 😂
I would love 2
Excellent breakdown
Glad you liked it!
