  1. Zain was attempting the Bent Leg Turk a couple times and the ref waived him off. So he hooked the guy's leg with his leg and cranked his skull.
  2. 13 Federal Judges Won't Hire Columbia Graduates Over Campus Pro Palestine Protests. Several students that already had job offers In the courts and finance have had the offers rescinded. Thank God for the old F around and find out. The 13 judges were all Trump appointees. Love me some Trump.
  3. You guys must have watched a different interview than I did. I found it informative and it wasn't oozing with God talk. I'll admit that Aaron said some of the some of the quiet part out loud. But, David and Aaron have had some animosity for a few years. Do you know what goes on between competitors in the same room? Let alone, the 2 best in the country and possibly in the world and their teams in the room. I don't. alot of the anti Brooks people and those that wine any time he mentions God watch with a preconceived notion and if he mentions anything, you feel validated. And those that bash Basch, don't watch!!!, it's his podcast, he can post whatever he wants, he's a PSU homer and he admits it. deal with it. There are other pods you can listen to that are homers for their team, I don't listen to them because I don't care. If I want vitriol and whining I'll vist the hawk board for a couple minutes.
  4. In the last match, Zain almost had a turk, he had the leg a couple times but the ref stopped him, Zain cranked the head and took him over anyway.
  5. Yet every team in the country would LOVE to have any one of them while about 70% of the people on this site would like to smother you while you sleep..
  6. For perspective, Sadulaev has been wrestling intl. much longer, he lost to Snyder after going up a weight then didn't lose for 6 years then got mopped by Taz, Sidakov has lost twice in the last year, he's beatable, worlds or otherwise. his win against Dake was razor thin.
  7. Each one of our guys is a medal threat. Zain was a giant against most of the guys he faced and seems to have his weight under control. Its going to take a stud to beat him, if he doesn't make the final, I wouldn't be surprized if he wrestles for a medal. He has to be among the favorites. Muza has to be the favorite, depending on his tank, the tank doesn't seem to be a prob for Zain,, Nick Lee gave the Iranian a descent match, and Zain is more solid than Nick. I also think Zain matches up well with Dudaev. Top 3. Spencer had a close match with Zhou, and after the 4, Spencer beat him up until the last exchange and he wasn't close to getting turned, then destroyed the field he spent about 10 minutes on the mat and most of that was against Zhou. I think Spencer will beat him up if they wrestle again. Spencer top 3 Dake is on a mission, I don't see him losing until possibly the final where he could face Sidakov, their first match came down to the final exchange. I expect silver or gold. Brooks top 3 in my opinion. He underhooks like Yaz and may be just as strong and has a better tank. Brooks top 3 Snyder is never out of medal contention. Top 3 Parris has proven he can hang with the best and only seems to be improving. He is 1-0 againt Zare, it was 2019, but who knows if he can hang with him now, they haven't wrestled since to my knowledge. He lost to Geno multi WC 8-6 at worlds and beat everyone else. To say he doesn't have a chance to medal is disingenuous. top 3. The opinions expressed are my own, if you don't like it I don't care.
  8. Every one of our Freestyle guys is a title threat. Each one is an age group champ and 3 are senior champs and a bronze and the 2 that haven't wrestled in seniors must be among the favorites.
  9. Is the bent leg Turk legal in freestyle? I'm talking about how Zain would have the foot by the ear like he did in college. You don't get much time to use it in freestyle, but Zain worked it as good as he could in the final match. It's brutal.. Zain's brutality is only matched by his humility. My favorite Penn State wrestler ever.
  10. So we have 6 free, 6 women and 3 greco, is that correct?
  11. Zain just went through a gauntlet, this guy isn't as accomplished as anybody he's faced.
  12. Unable to watch, driving. I'm following here and it was 2-2 w 36 seconds to go and I was kinda coming out of my skin.
  13. I reread your response, yes we are in agreement, Hence my edit. My phone only showed the dictionary part. Sorry for calling you a grammar cop.
  14. I agree, some folks on here were saying, "this is a qualifier, it may be different when he wrestles the big dogs" The current WC is Steph Micic At the 2023 World Wrestling Championships, Micic went 5-0 to win the gold medal at 57kg. To win the gold, he defeated three former world champions. Micic defeated 2018 and 2019 World/2020 Olympic 57kg gold medalist Zaur Uguev in the quarterfinals, the 2022 57kg champion Zelimkhan Abakarov in the semifinals, and the 2022 61kg champion Rei Higuchi in the finals. I would bet on Spencer to beat Micic right now and am pretty confident he can beat the others if they are the world reps.
