See Page 5 of the thread. There are a few videos of the men's SP.There are no available videos of today's performances, right? (Not that I'm particularly excited, given that the performances seemed far from ideal)
Although I haven't found any other men's sp videos on youtube, I found that Peter Liebers' study topic in university is quite interesting:

So the reason why there are no American skaters here is just that the deadline was before Nationals? That's just silly! They could have used Season Rankings/World Standings etc. combined with the athlete's preferences to choose...Not as bad as I'd feared reading the reports. And that 3A is .
Frustrating that Kozuka fell off both the 4T and the 3A and is somehow ahead of Artur. Grrrrr.
Wish the deadline hadn't been before US Nationals. Max could have cleaned up here.

Or they could move US Nationals to an earlier date, before the deadline...?Well, they couldn't really, because they didn't know how Nationals would go. I mean, imagine if they named Jason to Universiade and then suddenly he turns around and is National Champion. Puts them in an awkward spot.
It would be great if they'd been able to enter someone here, but I guess it wasn't feasible.
Might seem like an stupid question but why doesn't Canada or USA send anyone at all to the Universiade?
Seems like a great learning opportunity for all skaters to be involved in such an event. Like even sending a B team to earn international experience.

Fun fact: Maria PALIAKOVA (BLR) is listed as having "breeding frogs, reading, movies, sports" on her ISU profile
