  1. Didn't Smith win a title or two while losing a match during the tournament? Pool system.
  2. Well, I would assume that just like any athlete, full time attendance is required. Kinda tough to do when on active duty. Work 8-10 hours per day, 12 credits and practice. I don't remember any active duty soldiers carrying more than one or two classes at a time. If you are sent by the military to school full time with no other duty obligations it might be doable
  3. Why didn't the men have more than one entry per weight like the ladies did?
  4. Can the man transfer? Is he in the portal? Does he have to be in the portal? If he wants to leave the Gophers, does he need a release? Can somebody with expertise in the NCAA transfer rules please enlighten us!
  5. I might be convinced that Olympic weights should be wrestled to completion and then wrestle the non Olympic weights. Maybe not every year but at least the years preceding the Olympics.
  6. I would say whichever man has the tools and desires to put the work in to be a successful head coach. Both have a great work ethic (hard to be a wrestling success without one). Both were/are successful wrestlers (there are many more great wrestlers than great head coaches)
  7. How many multiple time champs took up coaching and only intermittently produced champions and never won a team title?
  8. Will high profile HS kids negotiate to get NIL $$ as soon as they arrive on campus?
  9. How important is the 9.9 cap when an athlete can get NIL money? When can a committed HS athlete start negotiations for NIL money? With some.of the numbers I hear being bandied about, tuition and books ain't squat!
  10. Pros have salary caps but pro athletes still get endorsement deals. How do.you put a cap on what Samples used cars want to pay Sniffy Smith for posing with a used Edsel?
  11. Gable ruined the shoes on the mat thing for me.
  12. Gable won it 2x 68 & 69 lost it in 70. He should not be on the list but some knucklehead fans can't do math
  13. Bunch of knuckleheads! 50 years is 50 years and Gable ain't in it! If they can't get Dake's EIWA record correct, how can they be believed regarding anything else?
  14. No crap! If Gable never coached, would his wrestling be held in as high a regard as it is?
  15. How many wrestlers have made the team the year they took an olyshirt?
  16. No biased grudge at all. Since this meet really didn't do anything other than provide some international competition for the senior athletes as they prepare for the worlds, I just don't agree with sending a wrestler that I don't see as viable world team member in either the short or long term
  17. I like seeing money spent wisely. 10 years out of college and I don't see Dom ever making the team. Spend the money where it does the most good
  18. What they came away with has nothing to do with my post.
  19. If we can't send our studs (for whatever reason) we should send up and comers not a man that is 10 years out of college and I for one don't see being the future of the weight class
