Ummmm, Sure.
First, MO is not a former Hawk...he was barely a Hawk.
And Mikey is probably wrestling for another club (I wonder why).

So no, we don't get to claim them anymore.
Still a former Hawk. Like Real Woods. I’ll keep rooting for Caliendo, you do you. Mo was actually a member of HWC too. I agree his time is short, I probably wouldn’t claim him. Caliendo gave us 3 years….

I am perfectly fine claiming both of them still to keep tabs on, especially in an announcement like this. This idea of guys being dead to us as soon as they leave the program is absolutely asinine

No offense, why TF are we listing Caliendo and MO?
Because I cover past/present/future Iowa wrestlers and those affiliated with the two RTCs…

Caliendo gave the men’s program three amazing years and graduated as a Hawkeye. So, I’m going to cover his career as a post-grad - wherever that may be.

As for Endene, that’s a different story. Which is why I put an * next to his name.
