[quote=MaxPain]Eric, when was he grabbing for air?? Had the left hand on top of the head and the other around his leg. Was he on is back? Yes but it was in the scramble we are speaking of.
I know you don't have to establish control to get an escape. But you DO have to get away from the opponent to earn 1 point. He never got away, he never escaped.
Ahhhh. . . I'm no expert here but don't you just have to face your opponent? I seem to have seen that called often. Not completely away - but, on your feet and facing your opponent while you are still in contact with each other. I could have sworn that I have seen that called a million times before. Am I wrong here?
