Not a worrywart, but did anyone see PJ back on bench or in the handshake line? I’m glad he finished the match and seemed okay, so maybe he was just icing it down and getting treatment, but still.
Worrying is like sitting in a rocking chair. You are doing something but you aren't going anywhere

Dealing with a scholar is see, enjoy was me politely saying, your opinion is meaningless, I know your thorough analysis took a lot of brain power, now I’ll be less polite, I’m not interested in your advancements. Ii’ll say something I’m sure you’ve heard many times before, no means no bro
So your take is PJ wrestles like Beau Bartlett? The fact you don't see the wrong in that comparison is all that is needed to analyze the quality of your analysis. I am sorry you aren't bright enough to understand there was an analysis of your thought process and conclusion on this subject. My conclusion was offered fairly bluntly.
Your wrestling IQ appears low and I don't believe I need to offer some sort of peer review article to defend that conclusion.

Whatever you say doesnt matter. The statement that pj was transforming into beau was sled dog dumb

You said something silly.
You got called on it.
Now, you are acting like a baby.
Take your "L"

With all due respect to Beau Bartlett, his "defensive" style of wrestling does not resemble P.J. Duke's in the slightest.
PJ has struggled offensively the last two matches……not a stretch. There have been many posts about this during this meet.. …..

2 matches against excellent competition. Vs an entire career of 1 TD matches for Beau. Hardly a comparison. It was incredibly stupid the first time you typed it. And you continue to double down.

Im guessing 8th grade was a tough 4 years for you.

Nope, gotta learn by getting experience. No better way than continuously going under before it truly matters, especially against experienced hammers on top.
Totally agreed needing the experience for his career, just wonder if there’s a point this year where he’s learned what he can and they punt to next year on it and switch focus to neutral scoring.

If that’s the approach they want him to take in B1Gs and NCAAs, which seems likely, might be something to work on the next few times he’s out there?

I predict they will never wrestle at either 144 or 150.

And what the heck is a state series? That heat is making your brain fuzzy. You’ve been out of real wrestling country too long.
The qualifying events leading up to the state tournament. I'm from IL we call that the state series. We also say it correctly and call it the state tournament not states

Cole couldn't be any closer to beating these top guys, he gets better every week and is the only guy that never gets the rewards. I feel like he's going to have a coming out party like Beau Bassett and SVN did at Nationals.
I don't know about Nationals. I don't know about Big Tens. I do believe Cole will beat Feldman next week.

I see a tired wrestling team battling hard, working on things, not worrying about the outcome. Sure, some make it look easy. I expect a party this coming Friday.

um with the rent-a-wrestler at HWT. Screw that.
Its not nearly as bad as football, but there are wrestlers who bounce around. There arent many teams built through the portal, although Michigan goes there more than most.
