Jairod James has AA level physical talent but lacks the pace to fulfill his potential. Seth Williams finally wore out enough for James to take care of him but Williams was wrestling with his knee in a strait jacket. James needs to either commit heart and soul to the pursuit of greatness or get on with his life's work. I'd love to see what he could do if he chose the former.

Agreed. Those are the most points I've ever seen him score. His style last season was very conservative; certainly not indicative of his ability. I've heard Hll and Andrassy tell him to up his pace and go. Perhaps his loss in the final at Navy was his wake up call. From the Navy Classic recap:
"James held a 4-1 lead in his final bout against No. 11 Jadaen Bernstein (Navy), but a third period escape made the difference in a 5-4 loss. "Jairod could have won that match," Andrassy said. "He gave up a takedown at the edge thinking they were going to be called out of bounds. He just needs to wrestle with more of a sense of urgency"
