Jimmy Cinnabon Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Reading on Iowa and Penn State forums that Aaron Nagao may have injured an ACL in practice and may be out for the season. I'm super bummed if this is true.
Caveira Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Sounds like psu shouldn’t be so dependent in the transfer portal.

flyingcement Posted October 6, 2023 Posted October 6, 2023 Hopefully he's okay. If he's not, it's a shame for him, but Penn State would still be a favorite by more than fifty points for the national tournament

They'd need to combine with another top five contender team to even have a chance. Iowa plus Michigan rosters combined still loses though to Penn State I reckon.

Expand Iowa can win if: They get Ferrari at 197, Steveson, and all the suspended wrestlers back. Nagao and one other expected guy from 141-285 are out of the PSU lineup

Nagao and one other expected guy from 141-285 are out of the PSU lineup Expand I guess they technically could win - its possible. It's just not very plausible, even in the extremely unlikely scenario that they land Steveson. They would a combination of need Franek to upset Haines, Caliendo to upset Mesenbrink, and Ferrari to upset Brooks. Sure it could happen, but it would have to be as a result of some sort of miracle Edited October 7, 2023 by flyingcement
flyingcement Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 By all accounts Ferrari cannot make 197 also. In which case they have Ferrari and Cassioppi in the same weight class with probably similar results
flyingcement Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 125: Ayala over Howard 133: Teske over Braeden Davis 141: Woods and Bartlett - toss up 149: Van Ness over Voinovich 157: Haines over Franek 165: Mesenbrink over Caliendo 174: Starocci over Kennedy 184: Truax over Brands 197: Brooks over Ferrari, Assad, or Franklin 285: Kerkvliet over Ferrari or Cassioppi - Steveson would be favored though.

Expand Agree, that’s why I said they’d also need one other PSU guy out of the lineup. I said 141-285 but if we’re talking dual and pretending Iowa has Steveson it’d need to be 149-197. And even that would be 5-5 at best and PSU likely wins the bonus battle.
Wrestleknownothing Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Why does anyone think a guy who flaked out on the World Championships will suddenly want to/be allowed to wrestle in college? Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge

In no particular order my list would include injury, his boss changed his mind, he is juicing for pretend wrestling, and he changed his mind. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge

Expand My guess is it’s part of the reason for “his boss changing his mind.” His boss might have changed his mind because he didn’t want Gable to lose.

Expand He didn’t flake out but he’s also not wrestling in college ever again, word is the WWE was going to begrudgingly let him wrestle in worlds and the Olympics then gable pushed and tried to get another year of college too and WWE was like hell no you need to be training with us too and then they said screw and didn’t let him wrestle at all
