Will O'Toole and Mocco enter the transfer portal after this year, neither seem to be improving in the Missouri wrestling room, any chance they transfer to Wisconsin and wrestle for Bono and are closer to AWA?

So are you really trying to say Carr isn't very good?

No

Just watched video of Carr on flo after match last night.  Got to say made me a fan of his.  Great mind set and work ethic it seems.  I will be rooting for him from now on, except when going against O’Toole of course.

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong.
Can you tell me which one is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Not sure how you read that into my comment but ok, No i think Carr is the complete opposite of that

Great match Carr did an amazing job of wrestling to his strengths and keeping KOT out of his wheel house. Maybe when KOT gets his takedown he is able to establish a solid ride and go to work on top it could’ve been a completely different match, but Carr’s urgency & game plan keep the ball in his court for the full 7 minutes.

O'Toole not improving???   3rd and an NCAA Champ, was undefeated until last night and lost to another NCAA Champ and 3rd placer.

I don't know.  Several of those wrestling positions in that match that I might have originally thought would have favored KOT were solidly owned by Carr.  Carr looked stronger and better.

Looking forward to the rematch and adjustments by both of them.

I'll have to rewatch myself because I walked away thinking Carr won by keeping KOT in his wheelhouse and capitalizing on every little mistake KOT made

In the wheelhouse or out, it was one of the best game planned matches I've ever seen. He was prepared for everything Keegan was going to do and executed to perfection. He was better in all three phases of the game. Keegan will need to be equal as prepared with a game plan in future matches in order to flip the script, but I think it's a good thing he got a feel for Carr before it really matters.

Wonder who game planned it? Carr? Metcalf? Dresser? etc?

I'm pretty sure he's saying this in response to the A in AWA saying Wrestler's don't get better under Bono after Hamiti lost to Carr earlier this year 7-5.

 

So you kinda need that context otherwise it comes off...no offense Ivan, but kinda(totally) ridiculous.

[CHROMEBIRD]

First two periods, Carr scrambled through to late takedowns and I'm thinking "KOT won't let that happen next time" but then seeing him ride O'Toole in the third? Incredible. Carr totally owned the match. 

It will be interesting to see what kind of adjustments KOT makes but I must admit Carr has the advantage going into the Big 12 tournament. That could be the last time they meet up this year. I expect the bracket at Nationals to be a wreck.
