Bailey and Block

[98lberEating2Lunches]

We ? I know but won't be telling you

But can you explain the descent rules for Estrada to make 141? The maths is hard.

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.

Absolutely no offense against decent wrestlers.

Are you talking about Bailey, Williams, Kennedy, Arnold, or Kueter?

Based on last Sunday, Bailey, Williams, and Keuter.

But you already knew that.

How many offensive points has block scored this year? Real question..

Is he winning? That’s the important question IMHO. I’d rather have a defensive juggernaut who wins than an offensive guy who almost gets the win.

 

[Nashville_Hawk]

Morningstar style. The recruits will love it

No, I think it’s more like Angelo Ferrari style…and I promise you he is great for the program!!

 

[Twoooooo]

Yes that's what my friends who are missouri fans have told me for years actually

Hahaha, you dont have any friends

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 is just not strong enough at 141, but the good news is we have probably have our 133 for next year on the roster already.

Remind me - who??

Or Ayala or Ferrari?

 

[HawkAlum2002]

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.

Are you telling me the ROI is worth it at this point? Could they end up doing well? Yes, but right now they aren't.

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.

In order to judge ROI one would need the amount that was actually paid. And hearsay from a filing isn't enough

Yep… we don’t know the return or the investment but hey let’s make judgments on whether the ROI is worth it.
