AgaveMaria Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 On the Iowa board. Are they really letting this guy back in the room? Is it because of his Daddy? Or, are others who gambles coming back for another season? 1 ” Never attribute to inspiration that which can be adequately explained by delusion”.

CHROMEBIRD Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Back for U23s? Where would Nelson slot into the lineup? Siebrecht - Cal - PK - Gabe - Glaze - Keeter is looking pretty tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunaticfringe Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) I 100% agree, for all the years he was in the lineup, he was a 10-15 ranked guy whether he was at 174 or 184. He wrestled well at NCAAs to AA but who did he best? He beat Peyton Mocco, Edmond Ruth, Alex Faison, Ethan Smith and a sucked down HEW Dustin Plott after 3 days of weigh ins to place 5th. Not one time in his 7 matches did he break one open, the most points he scored was 6 in a match. Now if he was beating these guys 14-5 with multiple takedowns I could see the arguments for him. He just as easily can go 0-2 BBQ with these point totals. Gabe Arnold will dictation who goes where but I think Kennedy beats Brands out for 174, he has way more potential to put points up Edited May 21 by Lunaticfringe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I think Iowa ends up shaking out 125- Ayala 133- Schriever / Peterson 141- Block 149- Parco 157- Caliendo / PK 165- PK / Caliendo 174-Gabe Arnold 184- Brands 197- Glazier HWT- Kueter Solid team with a chance for quite a few AA’s. Will be in the mix for a trophy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juniorvarsity Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Assuming Parco goes 149, it means Iowa's second biggest recruit from last year is likely to sit out due to taking Parco from the portal. There is no way you take Parco from the portal and sit him. Recruits are everything. Obviously nothing is guaranteed, but as a blue chip recruit you choose your school with an assumption that you likely have a spot at your weight. This is now something recruits have to think about before choosing a school, and take note of each program's portal strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I like how Brands is playing into "the Gambler" gimmick. I was all for him serving the prescribed NCAA punishment for gambling. He was stupid; he was caught. He paid his price, he deserves to be able to wrestle. As far as his 2022-2023 season, don't forget that he was already coming off UCL surgery and then got into a motorcycle accident just before the season. Broke his collarbone and probably some other shoulder damage. Makes sense that he wasn't scoring a ton. He opened it up a bit more at nationals and beat some good guys. I'm not sure when victories over Peyton Mocco, Edmond Ruth, Ethan Smith and Dustin Plott became anything to sneeze at. Guys are all solid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Hawkeye Report someone, MultiHawk (seems like he is tight with the program; but idk) was saying that Block is around 150 and has the intention of wrestling 141 this year.

I also spoke about him maybe using a medical redshirt. Willie is definitely in the known and has those connections that I certainly don’t. I was just curious to see if he had any thoughts on that matter as well, since he’s the brain. He may know that may be something the staff and Block is discussing, idk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure you could make a similar argument for most 5th place AAs if your goal was to explain them away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
