Kids bodies change as they mature into men. Maybe he is weaker because of sacrificing muscle mass to make weight. He might be stronger at 141.Physically dominated there. Needs to get much stronger to beat these guys
Getting out from bottom is a huge issue for him. So is getting to his offense. Spinning around the other guy isn't going to cut it. He needs to develop some leg attacks. Along with getting stronger.No he doesn't. He needs to get stronger. That's it.
Marcus doesn’t have the Hips Jax and that kid has. Great year though at 133. Needs to work on flexibility/Hips.Mr. Blaze has a lot to work on to compete with these other freshmen.
No, he needs both strength and technique improvement.No he doesn't. He needs to get stronger. That's it.
True, but PSU also got 2 bonus points due to Allred's MFF. Then Ryder got the same.
Edit - Then DT and OkieState got 2 more cheapies when AJ Ferrari MFF's to 6th place. The difference is that Allred was really injured. Who knows what AJ's delete
Penn State guys never get betterNo he doesn't. He needs to get stronger. That's it.
Marcus doesn’t have the Hips Jax and that kid has. Great year though at 133. Needs to work on flexibility/Hips.
Who or what is Hips Jax?Marcus doesn’t have the Hips Jax and that kid has. Great year though at 133. Needs to work on flexibility/Hips.
Too bad Cael can't coach.Penn State guys never get better![]()
Zain had 3 losses in his freshman year, so he’s in good company…I didn't have 3 losses for Blaze on my bingo card this year.
I think they're on sale now at Harbor FreightWho or what is Hips Jax?
Unpopular question: Does Blaze need a RS?Something to keep in mind. True freshman Zain Retherford finished 5th. Its a bright future for Blaze and Duke.
Carroll was really hurting,knee i think.What happened in Szuba/Carroll? They went out of bounds then it was over as a DQ, but I don't think it was too much stalling
He made a statement for sure!Looks like PJ wants to finish the tournament with an exclamation point.
He has been on the phone calling Cael all week. It got so bad Cael blocked his number. Apparently he is willing to cut to 174, but Cael told him thanks, but no. We have a guy here and another coming who wrestle on their feet, on their feet and while standing in the center.Angelo MFF out. Shocking.
Let the transfer rumors begin...
Hopefully Luke 125 again, Ono 133 and Blaze 141lbs next seasonKids bodies change as they mature into men. Maybe he is weaker because of sacrificing muscle mass to make weight. He might be stronger at 141.
That can’t be right. Tan Tom is national coach of the year. Didn’t they already lock up the team title?Kharchla/Kennedy will most likely determine 4th/5th between anOSU and Iowa.
Hah @El_Jefe, one of the worst, butt hurt Buckeye posters clearly lurks over here and quoted you (I think he now says “Pedro State” since the alternative might not be kosher anymore by their mods - interesting coming from a campus with pedophile/sex trafficker Lex Wexner’s name all over it, but I digress)No, he needs both strength and technique improvement.
That's not a slam on him. He's a true freshman from Ohio -- a state notorious for underdeveloped mat wrestlers. He hasn't had enough time to recover from that against the best mat wrestlers. And Seidel is a hammer on top even by PA standards.
Carroll was really hurting,knee i think.
agreed!Hopefully Luke 125 again, Ono 133 and Blaze 141lbs next season![]()
Need? No. He just finished 4th as a true freshman.Unpopular question: Does Blaze need a RS?
