Bailey and Williams have absolutely fleeced whoever is paying their NIL deals. Fleeced them.

Get a life. It’s barely a month into their first season.
Their first season at Iowa you mean. These guys have both been DI wrestlers for multiple years, with varying pedigrees. That experience should matter.

Yeah, it's too early to definitively say Iowa got fleeced, but it's damn concerning at this point in time. It's up to them for a course correction, we'll see if they're up to the task.

But his hands have been all wrapped and taped up. Can’t believe he can grip anything.
FWIW his hands have been taped up since his true freshman year. At Nationals 2 years ago they said he has wrist issues from all of the push ups he does and last season during a dual one of the broadcasters said he tapes them up like that to have something extra to grip onto for cradles.

Bailey can go down to 133 where he's actually been successful. Keeping in mind if he just finishes his takedown on Vega when he had his leg for what felt like over a minute, we are probably not nearly as concerned about him going forward.
He could’ve been up 14-0 and then pinned Vega and after his matches against ISU and Ohio St I’d be concerned. A jv high school wrestler could’ve showed just as much offense in those matches.
