Mr. PeanutButter Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Or was there some other, totally reasonable explanation for tonight's debacle? Perhaps half the team sprained its ankle on the tricky bottom step to the locker room? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerfan Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 This event was never intended to be anything other than a school-funded vacation, by the coaches who started it. Maybe I should have warned y’all to not pay for it. On another note, I wonder how many matches Flo’s favs will have to lose before they stop trying to justify their rankings? Time will tell.

flyingcement Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) I think my ESPN+ and BTN+ will be sufficient going forward. I won't be falling for anymore of these PPV for JV teams Edited December 19, 2023 by flyingcement 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't, but Mike Grey did: Quote I have received quite a few messages regarding our Iowa State dual so I figured I would get right to it. We had starters get injured during our previous matches in the day. If we wrestled Iowa State first we would have had all our starters in. I’m not going to risk further injury and endanger my student-athletes for a dual in December. Good or bad in the eye of the public, my job is to protect my athletes and if they aren’t able to compete they will not. We have Ohio State, Virginia Tech, Missouri and NC State amongst others remaining on the schedule. I think we have the toughest schedule in the country and I expect to wrestle our best in each event. Injuries are part of the sport and they unfortunately aren’t predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they should flip the schedule tomorrow, lead off with NC State v OSUe, we wouldn't want more injured ducks in the premier matches. BTW: Oregon really should bring back wrestling.
