Not an argument but a question, when has Tom protected seeds i really can't recall anytime in the near past? As much talking he did about duals i can't see him hiding anybody but we already know injuries do happen. I just don't see him hiding even from penn state.
Iowa bringing in new coaches isn't going to register in State College. Iowa would have to find the next Gable or Sanderson. Somebody within a new generation understanding of training methods that has the same zen qualities as those two. Otherwise Iowa would simply be trying to do what Penn State does better than how Penn State does it. Okie St, Iowa, Ohio State and maybe a few others are racing for second until sometime after Cael, Cody and Casey hang it up.
I was thinking the same thing. He shows up with his best team believing he is winning.
Not with Blaze or Ono at 141. Mendez is a beast for sure and heavily favored in both but it gets tight, Bartlett tight.
There is one coach who just might be able to match Cael’s ability to put everything together. Unfortunately for Iowa, he’s also at PSU and not going anywhere.
Davina looks 20lbs heavier than blaze.
No one in the world within 10 lbs of Ono is heavily favored over him.
Burroughs hates folk style. They should hire him for the HWC if they go down that road.
From interviews, Spencer does not seem like a leader of men. Who would want to follow that guy? Is he better in person?
Exactly , the guys I mentioned had no chance at four after their first year of course. So we had at least six kind of close to four guys then add in Taylor
And an equitable “understanding” of scholarship $ allocation.
Well that too. Any great one will push the envelope one way or another . Not saying it's "right", It's just the nature of competition.
Can’t say I’d be overly concerned if Lee took over
It's always fun to have these well established facts ready to annoy rabid Hawk fans.
I'm not sure he will bring his 'best' team to PSU. At least, I have my doubts.
Yeah, they not only won all five matches from 125-157, they pretty much embarrassed Iowa. There's no way Tom doesn't have the attitude that he can beat PSU the same way (whether it's a pipe dream or not in reality).
LOL kids a lot better than Mendez have lost at NCAA!
I believe that was always the plan.
Yes, but let's be honest here. In HR Villages they scorn logic and speak Hawkese. Explaining things in English using logic gets you banned. Or at least used to. Not sure how they handle that now.It's always fun to have these well established facts ready to annoy rabid Hawk fans.
I don't understand the doubts. Ryan typically runs his best out against PSU. Especially when he sees a path to victory.
I don't believe that Ben was offering his services as an Assistant. He was basically saying that Brands should be fired.
Perspectives can certainly change (maybe McIntosh is finally homesick), and the Olympics loom, but from what I’ve seen, I think Masa would be thrilled with as many years here as he can get.
Goggles pounded the Cole Is Too Light drum so much that he punctured it, and has found a new drum to beat.
Well he had moved on to the Ryder one but that blew up quickly so he has pivoted to this one about Ono.
Unless Ono sees Spencer Lee as the biggest threat to his world title... then where better to train than the NLWC?
Unless Lee starts training at NLWC, Ono would especially want to train at NLWC if he sees Lee as his biggest threat.
In the modern age of premarital relations, we are going to need a better metaphor than honeymoon! Nowadays, the honeymoon is probably not particularly blissful for couples compared to the many trips they had already taken together.
