The Key To PSU's Dominance...

At this point, I assume 83% of the Iowa posts are experiments to see how quickly you'll jump in.

Quicker to deploy than an elite smokejumper

I will jump in on all posts im a wrestling guy. And I bet 83% of my posts are just playing into the narrative that's been built . It's all FUN. I'm just glad everyone here thinks of me

I know that sounded funny, but when I was putting this together I was coming up with some contradictory numbers. Then it hit me, the #1 can also meet the #2 on the backside.

Yeah, I did deduce your meaning; it was thorough of you to notice the distinction. My post was in separate, ~L’hopital fun.

By the way, we can also deduce that, ordinarily, #1 is from the front side and #2 is from the back side, but if they’re meeting on the backside … somebody is being adventurous!

When you bring other athletes in those there have a choice to make. Just like Ryder and Beard that's what has been said here . But it's only a negative when others do it . The job of the staff is to get the best guys possible. And that happens at Penn st and Iowa as well as many other places. Not sure why Iowa is still on your mind after winning 12 titles in 15 years but here we are .

Iowa is the guy who was the bully and still thinks he has the stuff to bully despite having no teeth left and having suffered multiple broken bones getting kicked off the mountain top.
So to make fun of Iowa and rejoice in their emotional suffering when the reality of their place in the wrestling universe sets in is still part of the fun.

Or, alternately, maybe we're just a bunch of meanies who like to pick on Iowa fans.

He was hired in April 2009. They didn't win in 2010 (9th) , 2015 (6th) or 2021(2nd) . And no tournament in 2020 which wasn't counted. They've won 4 in a row 3 different times

So it is 12 of the last 14 tournaments..

Cael’s career at PSU is 12 out of 15 tournaments but since he did not win in his first year he also has won 12 of the last 14 tournaments… 3 runs of 4 with a miss between the first and second runs and one between the second and third runs of 4..

Say it however u want he's won 12 titles in 15 years

And ..... he's coming up on 13 titles in 16 years. (Which, by the way, will be 11 more than Iowa has produced in the same period of time.)

Need something to do.

The only one in folk and probably none in free -- and he beat them both in a 2-week stretch, Snyder at B10s and Cox at NCAAs.

That loss to Cox in his SR finals was so hard to take. He's the one guy on the team who never got a title, that you wish had.

I remember having that same feeling…

… in contrast, I remember really hoping for a championship for Nico in his last year, and seeing him get it!

At this point the key to PSU's dominance is finding the entrance to the gym. Life is great!

Poor Nico, because of Spyker has been nominated the room champion the last 14 years. Great wrestler, who's name we've tarnished with that joke on here.

Me too. I was also hoping for and optimistic for a championship for Shak, and I couldn’t believe those NCAA dummies deprived him of the chance.

I'm happy for him too, especially when he never beat anyone in the room.

That has happened to a PSU wrestler three times in the Sanderson era, and two of those were just last year. Lilledahl beat Ramos in the third place match and Kasak beat Shapiro in the consi semi. The third one is related to my earlier trivia question.

McIntosh beat Cox in the consi semi (2015) the year before losing to him in the final (2016). In both instances the #2 knocked off the #1.

There we have it…

He could never beat anyone else IN THE ROOM…

…but he beat EVERYONE ELSE IN THE COUNTRY NOT IN THE ROOM!
