    HAVE YOU HEARD???

    He's the guy who accuses anyone related to the PSU program of all kinds of cheating (including PEDs) at seemingly every opportunity. For me, that puts him solidly outside the "he's actually a good guy" territory.

    Coaching carousel 2024

    Does FLO ever have insights that you can't get on message boards (particularly this one)? I won't begrudge anyone who consumes their content because I understand anyone who just wants "more wrestling", but I can't think of anything I've ever heard them say or discuss that isn't more or less...

    2024-25 PSU Lineup (The Dynasty Continues)

    Has there been any confirmation that Gable is wrestling at Trials?

    Whiniest Big 10 Coach

    Don't confuse the fact that you don't like (for whatever reason) college athletes being able to get paid with "greed" on their part.

    Why "Social Media" is great....

    Is this retrofitted from a vacant flex warehouse space?

    State College PIZZA

    When I was there (2001-2006), there was a pizza place in the ground floor of Beaver Plaza apartments that had $4 pizzas. We ate a lot of $4 pizzas.

    AS THE BIRD TURNS (IOWA STUFF)

    If Gabe is being "handled" by Nelson (as I recently read on HR), I think finalist is a bit optimistic for his outlook this season.

    Worst way to lose a wrestling match?

    Losing a National Championship on a stalling call with 3 seconds left and then a locked hands call with 1 second left is up there.

    "DT will listen to Iowa's pitch"

    I don't think there would be an issue with David's ability. I think the issue would be with people not happy with the new AD coming in and firing favorite son Tom Brands. Look, I don't pretend to have great insights into the Hawkeye program leadership (boosters, funders, etc). But they don't...

    "DT will listen to Iowa's pitch"

    If you're accusing me of not wanting Iowa to regain their place atop NCAA wrestling...I'm guilty as charged. But I don't think I'm inventing any concerns out of whole cloth. There's a reason the "you want to be the man that replaces the man, not the man that replaces the man" (I butchered that...

    "DT will listen to Iowa's pitch"

    Sure. The same could be said for a lot of guys who come in to replace a legendary coach (and that's how it seems Hawkeye fans/insiders view Tom). Reality can be a lot different. We're not talking about simply a HC change. It would have to be a fundamental culture change. And if the program...

    "DT will listen to Iowa's pitch"

    If the entrenched Hawkeye insiders feel that Tom Brands was pushed out or done wrong, good luck to anyone who replaces him.

    2024 NCAA's - Day 3 - Match/discussion thread

    I bet there are a lot of current HCs that would say some pretty wild sh*t if you them in front of a mic for 2+ hours.

    Agreed. That's what trying to wrestle Aaron Brooks looks like. You're getting pushed to the edge, taken down, and ridden like a mule.

    2024 NCAA's - Day 3 - Match/discussion thread

    Regardless of pace, the match was 2 takedowns to 1. Tough to get upset at a loss when you lose the takedown battle and riding time.

    I don't think Amine enjoys wrestling Mitch.

    Tony Ramos was PUMPED at the end of that match.

    Even without the takedown, doesn't the 3 NF indicate it would be a neutral danger TD? Whether Nagao had control or not, there was a 3 count of Chlebove on his back. It's just whether that 3 count gives him NF or a TD.

    I wish that was true. But history (especially at nationals) says otherwise.

    Davis was moving forward more than Figs, but you aren't going to get 2 stall calls in the last minute if you haven't taken a shot up until that point.
