When Askren came up with his list of best scramblers in the last 10+ years, Nolf was #1.

this sucks

What an interesting time to retire, I think it's distinctly possible that Dake moves up to 79 for a year or two.

I didn't watch the video, butI did hear he was moving to Austin?  He's prob been doing BJJ exclusively since OTT, and Austin is about the best place on earth to do that.

Does anyone know if he plans on doing MMA or just jiu jitsu?

Who wouldn't want to see Askren in his prime vs Nolf in his prime?  In folkstyle, of course.

Break out the popcorn for that one.

Nolf would make an excellent coach.  Surprised no D-1 program is offering him a spot.

His creativity, pace, and scrambling ability would be so valuable to a program like Iowa.

Nichols should take the $1,000,000 allocated to Teemer and Buchanon and pay it to Nolf to bring him in as Assistant Head Coach.  Would pay much bigger (and longer) dividends than 1 semester rentals.

A pastry chef and a financial advisor, a man of many talents

You're not wrong, Jimmy.  I don't know how much Iowa/Nichols shelled out, but if I were Iowa, I'd rather have Nolf's services for 5 years (which $1 mi likely would get you) rather than Teemer/Buchanon.  Not close.

One of the most innovative folkstyle wrestlers ever.  Such a great wrestler and a better person.  

I hope he continues to make an impact.

Askren would catch Nolf in a scramble and promptly pin him.

You mean like Nolf did with the person who was supposed to be the second coming of Cael? IMar?

Nolf podcast where he announced it.  Thought him talking about his favorite matches was interesting

(spoiler: I believe he put a junior league match ahead of beating Jordan Burroughs at OTT).

I found it notable that he tore and restore his mcl and tore a ligament in his wrist. I'd make a joke about Carl running his guys into the ground but some people would think I'm being serious
