I think Tom meant to say that the Iowa wrestlers know what can be, but they just need to be unburdened by what has been.

Wartburg program probably. Poor fat Albert will have to wrestle 197 now. I can't wait to watch him waddle on the mat and take heads. Mo hurt his neck. The doctors didn't think he should compete but Dr. Brands with his amazing IQ is much smarter than the doctor and said you are fine just get tougher. Mo said I'm not doing that and Brands booted him for following medical advice. I hope a good lawyer punishes that program for the piss poor leadership.

Anyone know how long slumlord bob has been around the program?

may be my bias but it seems since he’s been let off the chain in public, while his money to the program has gone up, the results in the program and hwc have gone down.

For all his money he seems have a very toxic personality in public settings

He is the sort of "friend" the program has that makes enemies jealous.

Moving Angelo up to Barr instead of Rocco also puts them in grave danger of being shut out in Carver, which would be a nearly unrecoverable embarrassment for that program.
The bump ups obviously depend on what happens at the lower weights. If there are upsets and Iowa has a chance to win, why wouldn't they do the bump ups? If they have no chance after 174 then ignore my post.

Personally, I don't know that it would make any sense under ANY circumstance. There's nobody that they throw out there who is likely to beat Levi at 174, so a push. Kennedy is far less likely to beat Rocco than Ferrari would be, so benefit PSU because of the bump. Ferrari is obviously more likely to beat Barr than Ludington would be, but still rather unlikely and you stand the very real risk of losing any potential points that he might have scored at 184 if you bump him. I don't really see Brands making this move, even in desperation or even if they DID win a weight or two that weren't expected.

For guys who have been so close to the top step during their career realizing sometime during their senior year they aren't winning that championship is tough. HEW is real and for different reasons, but for those guys it can be devastating.
Forgive me. I am an old guy and not up on all the lingo. What does HEW stand for?
