  1. Perhaps you should go read Burwick's twitter and his dad's twitter and Manning's twitter... If this is true...haha...it's his own words on his twitter. Many of us were hashing through this on the old mat forum when this was actually happening. And , no, it does not undercut anything. When he found out Lamont came in that's when he actually made the decision to transfer.
  2. Yeah but do you have a sit down interview with Manning, complete with DNA test that it is indeed him, where he states, with closed captioning, that in fact, Wisconsin is not working on the best behalf of Kyle Burwick? Furthermore, does Manning define what "best behalf" means? Haha... I was about to post this.... then ionel .... EDIT: P.S. Mark Manning has retweeted the Burwick tweets about the situation. Isn't that a indication of agreement on Manning's part with Burwick's situation?
  3. Funny how Burwick, his dad, Nebraska and wrestling media are all saying the same thing, but Wisconsin has been silent other than some vague comment. Yet, people still want to defend Wisconsin with lots of "if's" and "Maybe's".
  4. He had already been considering transferring from Wisconsin after the NCAA.... He was notified May 23rd of the LaMont transfer. He went in the portal that week. He met with the coaches two weeks later. He was NOT coming back - It was very clear - They were not going to keep a guy on scholarship who went in the portal and then met with them to tell them he is not going back. As a side note, coaches can still "not" release a wrestler to another school - it happened just last year to a prominent transfer and he sat the first semester.
  5. Yeah, I think it's a safe bet that when he went to the portal that they withdrew the scholarship. It's not announced... it's pretty much a given... so you probably aren't going see any announcement. Why would they keep him on scholarship for the next year if he were leaving the program?
  6. Somehow this boils down to being Tom or Carl's fault...somewhow.
  7. How about Willie @Husker_Du confirming the same thing in this very thread?
  8. Your argument is historical which there is no argument here about Lamont's accomplishments...I am talking about now - today. Lamont has digressed over the last few years. He is not wrestling well this year either. Do you disagree with that? I was also very clear with the words "so far" which also implies that my statements are to be taken now, today, but that could change later. If Burwick and LaMont wrestle on January 29th and Lamont wins a close match, then I was correct (the difference between the two is not much). If Burwick wins I am correct (if any). You would be correct if LaMont wins that match comfortably. Was it a mistake to choose LaMont over Burwick? Is that change going to get Wisonsin a trophy?
  9. Lamont was very good a couple years ago and by all accounts seems like a great guy.......unfortunately wins two years ago don't count now... but a loss to the #29 and #16 guy do. As long as we are playing the historical game...look at guys that Lamont used to beat that now beat him....If he was on trajectory he would have wrestled a close match with Vito... We will see how this plays out.... I would take 3 years of Burwick over 1 year of LaMont. Maybe you should put it to a poll and see how it would turn out... I would be interested to see. P.S. Thanks for pointing out that Burwick defeated Schwartz....who beat Lamont in their last meeting.... see how that historical thing works?
  10. Was Monday in those 157 rankings or was he ranked at 165 at that time?
  11. Lost to only ranked wrestlers is incorrect.... Zach Redding is not ranked on intermat and he defeated LaMont 10-4 "doesn't seem to be paying off so far." So far means it could change later. However the difference between the two wrestlers is not much if any, yet Burwick has 3 more years coming and Lamont only has this year. Doesn't seem like a good move... so far.
  12. If I remember correctly, Brayton Lee was a pre-season #1 on some rankings.
  13. Dean's lost less matches than KState has lost games.... that's probably why.
  14. More like 4-5 weeks if he's eligible at semester... besides it was partly a joke to jab at Wisconsin.
  15. So Courtney is injured and out for the season? That's what it usually takes to get an extra medical year....
  16. Yes we know that.... please re-read my post below ... what I am saying is that maybe they (Nebraska and Burwick) are keeping his eligibility on the down low (quiet) until January 29th when they wrestle his OLD team that brought in Lamont to take his spot. It would be a great night if Burwick - who wrestles for NEBRASKA, wrestled his first match against his old team WISCONSIN and beat the guy they brought in to replace him - Lamont.
  17. Yeah I have checked around as well and haven't seen a thing.... maybe keeping it on the down low until January 29th ...
  18. Good question on Burwick - I was wondering the same thing. The 133 upgrade in Wisconsin doesn't seem to be paying off so far. Things could change, but so far it looks like it may have been a mistake. When that happens, responsible parties seem to dig in even more. End of semester is coming up so maybe we see him then - not sure. So far Burwick has looked good in opens. Perhaps Nebraska fans have some inside info.
  19. The blood timeout is in the same realm with the squeal rule... It would be an attack by BB that is then countered in such a way that it places BB in a position of getting pinned, but then calls for the blood timeout or squeals getting the potentially dangerous in order to get himself out of the predicament.
  20. 2 attack posts in a row is an attack then re-attack If you respond and he attacks , it is a counter attack. If he is clearly proven wrong and doesn't respond it's a MedFFT If he is clearly proven wrong and does respond, it's most likely an off-topic fake attack to not get called for stalling.
  21. Just remember that even though Beard beat Dean he is not better than Dean. We have learned this.
  22. Wasn’t Braydon Lee the pre-season #1 in some rankings? i didn’t watch the dual. Did Bergeland and Lee look gassed and injured?
