The problem is that Cole at his best, is a poor man's version of Carroll. Carroll will badly outscramble him again.

Cole is just not right! Whatever the problem is, he has been off since the end of the regular season, He is slower even early in the match and has nothing left in the third period. Definitely not the same wrestler as he was at the end of the regular season. Seems almost impossible that he will AA.
Cole is small for heavyweight. He doesn't have good length or frame to put on good weight, so he is what he is. I said this two years ago but got dogged on by the emotional.
The other twin won't make the lineup anytime soon, so will be very surprised if they both don't transfer. Very surprised this hasn't been mentioned as much as it should. Seems obvious.
Carroll isn’t the same guy. Cole’s path is fine. My guess is he sees Mullen.
Alright sure. Come back with that after the tournament. He was always a ? For AA.. He has over performed what we expected as an undersized heavy as a freshman. Still very good chance he outscores last years kerk.
Correct. Ideally one Mirasola would be 197 and the other 184. They are just small guys in terms of frame and weight for HWT and 197.
Well, look into it. Also, if Jimmy cinnabon is on your side, you're on the wrong side
Jimmy cinnebon the hater is so desperate that he's trolling our undersized heavy
You should start a thread on Intermat about it.
He hasn't looked right since his last match the the B1G Tournament. It's really odd to see. There doesn't appear to be the fire he had earlier.
He's always been undersized. What's puzzling is how Cole looked so good to climb to #4 in the rankings and then seemed to have a major regression at the end of the season. I really thought he was turning a corner into a true AA contender.
If no one replied to him again, he would disappear.
Cole’s path is likely Luffman, Mullen/Carroll, Catka. Could be much worse.
He makes a lot of weird choices when trying to finish. You're watching and saying "just do A" and Cole does B and gets taken down instead of getting the takedown.
A. Again I hope you’re correctWell, look into it. Also, if Jimmy cinnabon is on your side, you're on the wrong side
B. I have no idea who Jimmy Cinnabon is
Jimmy Cinnamon BunsWell, look into it. Also, if Jimmy cinnabon is on your side, you're on the wrong side
I agree, if not for Barr being so good he would start. The other Mirasola should be at 184 or 197 (on any other team he would be). There just aren't that many 6'0 220 pound heavyweights out there that can be effective (Kyle Snyder being the one exception).
A moron from Intermat. A few of us know who he is. A few want to expose him but are staying mum as long as he stays on Intermat
I dont see Braeden in a Penn State singlet next year.
I've been thinking that also. Maybe Cole is concerned about an incoming recruit?? Seems to be lacking fire

I was shocked he didn't try harder to hook Kueter's leg on that last sequence where Cole gave up the counter TD. He abandoned the attempt and lost his advantageous position.
Glad this SVN decided to show up early for the matches
And your point is? When I posted this nearly 2 hours ago, they were 5-0 and tearing it up. And they send 7 of 10 forward to our 8 of 10. Not bad IMO.
On a positive note, the second session was pretty good (18 points) and PSU is slightly ahead of last year's pace (40.5 vs 39.5).
