First dual in November and against a top tier opponent so I hope I’m dead wrong on this…but I see the parallels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I will be happy to eat crow at the end of this season, but I’ve always felt Bouzakis reminded me of Grajales. Way stronger than his competition when he was in HS and then when he got to college his strength was no longer such an advantage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What’s the status on Crookham? Didn’t see his name (or anyone at 33) in the wrestle off results Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don’t know how to delete a post on my phone. My bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds like its a little deeper than that. From what I read over on Twitter/X, UNI dragged their feet on providing any type of updates to West Gym and then they just condemned the building. On top of that it sounds like they offered no other options for training facilities so the coaches and the wrestlers had to find their own building and make it "mat ready" without any support from the university. https://x.com/knarkill/status/1706555586941210690?s=20

Does anyone think those tweets might have some blow back on the coaches? He admitted he didn't attend the meeting and received no education that he would lose his eligibility. People could construe that as a lack of guidance by the compliance officer/coaching staff...especially if they knew he didn't attend the meeting (I would think attendance would be recorded) and did nothing to get him up to speed. Personally I think this 100% falls on Nelsons shoulders and the blame is squarely with him, but I have seen coaches/teachers fired for much less when their pupils screw up.

I have had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with Anthony. He's a great guy, love seeing him compete on the world stage!

There is a part of me that just wants to see Dake v Sidakov. Obviously I hope its for gold, but I just hope the match happens. Been a long time coming.

Anytime these coaching positions open up, Hahn's name is on the list of possible candidates. Is he unhappy at SDSU? Has he been actively looking for another team? If he is looking for the next step in his career, I feel like SDSU to Princeton is a horizontal step rather that vertical. Could be off on that though.

all the streams are lagging...is that a "me" problem or a "we" problem?

Same here and I was thinking, I must've been hacked because I have no idea how to post a picture on here ha!

One of my favorite bigger guys to watch. Would love to see him get a title this year!

I’m technologically illiterate so I can’t execute this…but just know, I wanted to post the old video of the wrestling fan screaming, “it’s still real to me, damnit!” In response. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah well then, there ya go. Appreciate the info!

If he accepted any money from the WWE doesnt that make him a professional athlete and nix him from NCAA competition? Obviously NIL changes things, but he moved on prior to that gaining traction (I think) so I can't see them having the forethought to use NIL verbiage with contracts on the off chance he goes back to the NCAA, right?

While Burroughs is definitely on the last leg of his career, Chance over him is the bigger upset. Yianni plays with fire too much (especially domestically) and it is starting to burn him. Didn’t Lee beat him the last time they wrestled too? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are in Loveland. Kind of funny I lived in Colorado for about 8 years prior and the last 4-5 my wife and I lived in Loveland, CO. So we went Loveland to Loveland haha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was wondering when the “Medlin effect” would start happening at the RTC! Full swing now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Jungle Jim’s is outstanding! I collect hot sauces and their hot sauce area is ridiculous! Also it’s a good place to pick up my giardinaera when I’m feeling homesick haha. I’ll put Adriatico’s on the list! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man, I have been so impressed. Clean and historic city, great views, good sports/food culture. A lot of river access for outdoor activities. I can’t complain at all! Being from the Chicago area I never heard a lot about what Cincinnati had to offer, but my wife is from here originally and the more we visited the more it grew on me. Couldn’t be happier!

Big time. We recently moved to the Cincinnati area so if I had to choose a second school for him to wind up at, I'm glad its there. Easy trip up to see them wrestle for me!

Gotta get these guys on the podium in March too. Kannon Webster was a big get and a step in the right direction. Coaches have to produce. Wish we could've found a way to keep Davino at home.

Could it be that he finally just HEW (folkstyle)? I have no data or information to support this but had this though... if he wasn't going for his 4th title, I wonder if he even would've wrestled this year? I know he was all in on Iowa's title and was a team guy but he just seemed so burnt out and tired. After he lost to Ramos maybe that was just it.

I love it because of this. Just a little light hearted banter. I don’t see a problem with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
