  1. Ha, I was watching the dual as I wrote that but hadn’t gotten to 141 yet. But then did hear Shane Sparks say that during 141. He wasn’t qualified for an official ORS was he, he’s just taking a “regular” redshirt to train for the Olympics?
  2. This is a guy Askren talks about a bunch right?
  3. Did Negron do the Sun Devil bulk job? Wasn’t he pretty skinny wrestling 157 at PSU?
  4. Brayden Palmer of UTC over Blaze 6-4 in the finals
  5. Well looks like you were right about Rivera starting. Appears that Hanna is redshirting as a fifth year student, he wrestled unattached at the Southeast Open
  6. Gotcha. Any explanation given as to why?
  7. Is it true that Terry wasn't there?
  8. The pics I saw seemed like a good bit of Iowa fans, no?
  9. True but technically he’ll be 25 in April. Burroughs got his first world gold at 23. (of course to be compared to Burroughs he’s doing pretty well)
  10. Yes, there have definitely been multiple people saying “he was the best chance to medal,” but didn’t those usually occur AFTER he took those domestic losses? I’m not sure if that qualifies as “hype,” it may be accurate and is based on who he’s beaten internationally, not just him “coming onto the scene.”
  11. Well with the new top stalling rule requiring working for a fall we should see more top stalling calls. Yes it’s subjective but I don’t think you can really get rid of the subjectivity without making the product worse. I know in a later post someone said stall calls should be based on specific times in positions but that gets confusing when there’s so many of them. Not a fan of eliminating tech falls or zero points for a given escape though.
  12. I have no idea if it’s him of course or what his wrestling credentials are, but was the first thing that came to mind when someone said it was a HS kid
  13. Maybe that kid that won the big grappling tournament?
  14. Definitely more people that get ESPN than Flo or BTN. Maybe ESPN realizes that with so many people cutting the cord, old grumpy wrestling fans make up a bigger percentage of viewers than they used to.
  15. Man I thought Brown Ton was some sort of weird autocorrect mistake. That’s a pretty cool last name.
  16. It doesn’t seem there was as much pushback on the “sausagefest” comment. Just be careful promoting heterosexism, there are some UNC professors that don’t appreciate that.
  17. Google maps right now says 2 hours 7 minutes from University of Illinois to Chicago (140 miles), and 1 hour 4 minutes from Lehigh to Philadelphia (59 miles). Pretty big difference
  18. Caleb right? I also hadn’t realized that VanDee beat Trombley last year…
  19. Apparently not, although it seems Cassioppi was smart enough not to say anything himself. But now that guys have outed themselves, I would think the team/school should make a statement about them. I wonder if they even will once there’s a final ruling. Like even if it’s shortened will Brands even say why they’re not in the lineup?
  20. I guess himself. Doesn’t seem to have much remorse, mostly just ill will towards the NCAA https://www.hawkcentral.com/story/sports/college/iowa/wrestling/2023/10/26/iowa-wrestlers-abe-assad-nelson-brands-discuss-ncaa-gambling-probe/71333947007/?mibextid=Zxz2cZ&fbclid=IwAR1Xo6MpPI0dZP1Zx3uB6LZ_7qFdi6tPsMQbwNmGFsMofSIm5MNOJFgK5go
  21. Reading the description in the link about tOSU’s wrestleoffs, it sounds like Bouzakis/Gonzales would have went to SV if not for 3 pt takedowns
