  1. Me too. Don't care. We can't keep rewarding him doing nothing and then, when the guy who did all of the work is tiring, he works for 10 seconds.
  2. Hell yeah. You could have hit Lewan for stalling two more times in the first two periods.
  3. Even if he got the TD, don't give it to him on principal.
  4. If you're literally not trying to score, it makes it easier to defend.
  5. Lewan: WTF do you mean I can't just stand here?
  6. No. Standing reversal, made famous during the second Taylor-Dake collegiate match.
  7. Or, college kids can be inconsistent.
  8. Ragusin WYD baby? Michigan flat coming off the Iowa performance.
  9. I like FRL still, but I feel it was definitely it's best form when it was Willie and CP. They balanced each other well and disagreed enough. I feel like the current crew defers to Askren too much, although CP has been pushing back a bit more lately. Willie's solo show is good, too, but I wish it was in podcast form. @Jason Bryant's interviews are also excellent.
  10. Yes! Context matters, so that's a fair point.
  11. I don't watch the podcast, but the videos make it to my Twitter feed.
  12. Pssh. That was a choice Guerrero made for himself. He hung out on his knees for at least 4 seconds.
  13. 100%. The tics are very distracting.
  14. You might be surprised how little stuff can affect even regular public speakers. I had a guy, good public speaker, get completely flustered when he had to speak without a lectern.
  15. I agree that not every "lower ranked guy beats higher ranked guy" is a Carvering. Carvering will not be if Franek beats Haines, it will be if like Glazier beats Brooks.
  16. Looks to me like they're going with the modern podcast set up. Feels like most current podcasts I see are the guys sitting in chairs. They do appear uncomfortable/awkward, but that can happen any time you change something you've been doing for a long time. I assume it will smooth out over the next couple of months as they get used to it.
  17. Iowa was the heavy favorite going into NCAAs because they were by far the best team, best Penn State in the dual AND beat the brakes off Penn State at Big 10s, where Penn State took 4th. They were much heavier favorites than the year they won.
  18. CP just posted on Twitter that he would expect to see Kueter vs. Kerk.
  19. He took 5th in the country last year. Considering where he started, yes, he improved greatly.
  20. Two other excellent examples I forgot. Trust me, I'm as frustrated as anyone about how Penn State has separated themselves, and I want Iowa to be back at the top, but I don't see what hire out there is likely to produce that or be any better than the Brands right now.
  21. Just from the last two years, you have Drake Ayala, Max Murin, Cobe Siebrecht, and Nelson Brands. Going back to the year before, you have Austin Desanto, Kaleb Young, Michael Kemerer, and Jacob Warner. All got undeniably better while they were in college. They won a title and were a heavy favorite for a second prior to the COVID cancellation. Are those both Penn State reload years?
  22. It won't be close, but I think there's a great shot for Glazier to keep it to a decision. Brooks is just more athletic and more technical than Glazier, a tough combination to overcome unless you have some physicality/bully to you, which Glazier doesn't really wrestle that kind of bruising style.
  23. Clearly somebody has not matriculated their way to the NWT forum.
