Random question: Does vega get a takedown there before the pin from neutral danger/ back points?

He barely escaped just last week against another freshman. He’s absolutely beatable. This was an absolutely incredible performance and Jax is talented enough to win it all but I still think he’s behind Blaze, Davino and maybe Byrd. Blaze matches up extremely well against him
Blaze matches up extremely well with anyone, great technique and never out of position.

I will say this. Iowa’s program is a mess right now. Every season they regress as the season goes on. I am shocked at Ayala. Not just getting TF’ed, but I believe he’s lost 7 or 8 matches this year. He was a finalist the last 2 years and a favorite to win it all this year. Is he hurt, disinterested or has the Iowa program destroyed him. I don’t see Drake as a guy not working hard or disinterested. Just shocked how far he’s dropped. He might not even AA this year. Wow!
Give Brands some credit, it takes big balls to train through Okie state.

A little strange for DT to duck here to protect seed but I understand.

The problem for Vega is that he might run into a guy who just stalls and ties up and doesn't shoot and one mistake and he's done. His other problem is Mendez, who will major him.

If PSU really wanted Jax they'd have gotten him IMO, Cael made the choice and went with Blaze.
Ummm, no. First, you think Cael didn't pursue him hard? Second, it wasn't an either-or, and as if Cael avoids recruiting overlap. Third, they're both likely to change weights in the career, and probably not end up at the same weight.

In reality, Forrest had friends in Stilly and started training with Fix long ago. He was OKST's to lose before they hired Taylor.

I think The Pokes are gonna stay fairly close behind us in Cleveland, but in the end, the PSU jv team at 74 and 84 will do them in.

It seems like the best chance to beat him is to not shoot.

They are coming. No doubt about it. We are going to have to be on our A game in Cleveland.
