Formally140 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Man.. Iowa really is embracing, whilst poach when you can coach... I know, I know, everyone is doing it. Nebraska is "alledgedly" is offering 20grand to people. but eh, Iowa honestly comes across as more desperate than anything with how hard they're trying, and I think it's pretty much proven you'll develop more at PSU. So they're trying to take short cuts, Ive said it before, but there's no way this is sustainable. And there's a reason the most successful sports leagues have salary caps.

I think Gavin likes a bit of competition at 125. I remember when they had Colton Camacho and brought in Gage Curry from American who beat him out for the spot. Will be interesting to see it play out.

Le duke Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 So Greeley is 30 minutes from Boulder, Denver, Estes Park, and the Rocky Mountains, and Iowa City is 30 minutes away from.....?......Cedar Rapids?!? I understand that you're a homer, so am I, but dude, seriously?!? Greeley isn’t 30min away from any of those things. Greeley is Kansas.With a few exceptions in the southern part of the state, anything east of I25 is Kansas, geographically (and politically).

AZ_wrestling Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Carter is apparently coming back for #5. I wonder if Facundo considers transferring. Penn St. is clogged with talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not just an iowa thing. I hate the NIL I miss what the sport use to be lol This is incorrect. They bought 30% of the team and then only used 20% of the team. Don't exaggerate for the sake of trying to make a point on a wrestling forum when there are people much better at that game than you on said forum. "I know actually nothing.

Part of the game. Don't like it, you are welcome to watch softball or basketball or some other sport where they play with balls rather than have them. Get tougher. 1 "I know actually nothing.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I think this is what happens. We then see Facundo transfer to CMU for his last year of eligibility. The extra ~15lbs for Haines will be too much for Facundo to handle (I unfortunately believe) at 174lbs. "I know actually nothing.

I hear Carter Young might make the cut back down to 133. Hopefully this is it. You realize this team likely goes like 1-9 or 2-8 against Penn State, right? Depends on what weight Starocci goes and what MM (157 or 165) and Haines (RS?) do but that lineup isn't even close to winning a title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
