It absolutely has to be Blue Oyster Cult "Godzilla" for his entrance song!

Interesting for sure. Revealing! It’s been two years of waiting and anticipating. Tomorrow night (or perhaps a January match) will be uber exciting to see Ono display his almost completely unique blend of power and speed. There’s been so much talk about the transition from free to folk. Can’t wait to see how it goes over the next 4 months.

If Masa Ono is really good in folk style this year, my favorite pivot for haters will be the inevitable - why are we letting foreigners take the spot of American kids in college!!!!!

Bam! And before he’s even wrestled a match! From the King of the Intermat Idiots, Caveira. He’s definitely in the Inner Circle

So now that Davis is officially not on the roster (although apparently they only have 28 guys on it meaning in theory he could reappear), apparently some guys on the PSU forum are suggesting he wouldn’t be able to transfer out until next season, but if he wanted to, I don’t see how he wouldn’t be able to transfer for second semester at worst, especially after the Iowa to SDSU situation a few years ago.

If they didn’t tell him he was off the team …. And let him linger soooo long and he can’t leave. Man. Thats as bad as recruiting non folkstyle foreigners over you and your teammates…. Who have been in college (in their country) for like 3 years already and asking for 4 full years here to take you and the rest of your teammates place for as long as possible.

who knows

One of the bonuses of leaving Intermat was leaving that moron behind. Why ya gotta chase me over here with that for?

I was more interested in following what the cesspool had to say when Iowa was a threat to us. Now they’ll be lucky to beat VT or Nebbie. Who cares what they think now.

He won his world title like 52-3. Those points weren't all push outs.

Gotta give them credit.

The team has lost its swagger, but the cesspool hasn't lost a step.

Words of wisdom from Anthony, the one-legged wrestling champion, to a young boy aiming for the Olympics...

He told me he would sacrifice his own body to fulfill my dream

When I was nine years old, I met Anthony on a Japanese TV project.

Never imagined that day, but it was a dream debut on the NCAA stage.

It’s only just begun

If only Tbarr would come out of hiding and turn that 5 page equation into The Standard Model Lagrangian

I may have told this story here, I do not recall. If so, skip it. But in case I haven't....

I was a competitive swimmer in my youth. I started on the local park district team and slowly graduated to deeper waters (pun intended). The first AAU meet I competed in was a "C" meet (the slowest qualifying standards - AAA meets had the fastest).

At this C meet was a kid with one leg. That kid kicked my *** in the 50yd backstroke. That's right, I lost an *** kicking contest to a one-legged kid.

Flash forward 35 years and I am in SF on business. My old coach now lives there so I look him up and he invites me for dinner. While reminiscing I bring up getting beat by a one legged kid at a C meet. My coach becomes obsessed with the C meet detail. "You never went to a C meet" he keeps saying. "You are missing the point", I keep saying.

Looks like Masa’s descent plan for the Japanese tourneys has hit a snag.

Ono obviously gassed but I believe that it was 90% being in front of the home crowd.

Yes, he's wrestled huge matches in the past but look at things like his World Championship. Probably less than 1K in the stands and only 1/4 of them are paying attention as they wait for "their" wrestler. Now he's wrestling in front of thousand who are cheering just for him. It probably really amped him up, especially when he was part of that crowd experience last season.


It will be interesting what happens vs Oklahoma as he should get a ranked guy in Powe unless Oklahoma ducks everyone again.

It might be fortunate that dual is away. Less pressure?
