Are Iowa fans not paying attention to wrestling insiders who are all saying AJ is not only too big to go back down to 197 but also he doesnt want to because his goal is to fight light heavyweight in MMA. @ionel are you and I the only two who have heard this by multiple sources?

He had Nick Lee on the ropes and were it not for a short lapse in judgement, would’ve had a really good shot of pulling it off.Just pointing out that all hope ends after 141.

Husker_Du Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 a couple things: 1) regardless of what weight he goes (i don't see him ever making 197), i don't see any possible way AJ is eligible this year. a) he's not enrolled/accepted for the fall semester b) i don't think there's a way he's up-to-date with his progress to graduation. he's been out of school for so long. it's possible (kids do it with gap years). but i don't think he'd be back on track for Spring '24 unless he was taking classes either now in the fall. 2) Gable-to-Iowa has legs. i'm not saying it's happening or a foregone conclusion, but i heard it months ago and - the last two weeks - from several people. 3) i'm on pins and needles with the gambling thing. 4) That being said - My take 125 Ayala dec. Howard - IA 3-0 Toss 133 Nagao dec Teske 3-3 141 Woods dec Bartlett IA 6-3 149 Van Ness dec Voinivich 6-6 157 Franek dec Haines IA 9-6 Toss 165 Messenbrink dec. Kennedy dec 9-9 174 Starocci dec Calliendo PSU 12-9 184 Truax dec Nelson PSU 15-12 197 Brooks md Franklin PSU 19-12 HWT Kerk dec Cass. PSU 22-12 not close and that's giving toss ups to Iowa. fwiw - AJ Ferrari would never beat AB. 4 TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinnacle Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I hope AJ gets on the Iowa roster, then Gable gets on it too. I want to read the reports of how badly Gable is kicking AJ's rear end all around that room for months just to put some humility into that guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though yes, eligibility/legal issues are a large hurdle to clear to get back on the mat. While I agree Brooks is the favorite, Ferrari definitely has a chance to beat AB in my mind. He might not be as technical as Brooks, but Brooks hasn't wrestled one guy in college that has Ferrari's pure athleticism and strength. In 1.5 seasons, he gave up just 2 TD's, both as a true freshman (one in the last 15 seconds of a 13-8 win over Buchanan at Big 12's, and one in a 3-2 loss to Noah Adams at the Cowboy Challenge tourney in Feb. He'd be right in that match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
