  1. Yes I get freestyle is different but I wonder how a team of Greek God wrestlers would do at the NCAA D-1 level in folkstyle. We already know how good Athena is at FS.
  2. He is my all time favorite. So creative. Sometimes he wrested like a heavy weight. Then he'd work through a sequence and look like a 57kg wrestler. He was truly special
  3. 100% with you on not being sure if he's the same guy. Hopefully he has one left in him and rides off into the sunset
  4. Believe Satiev was 20 when he won his first gold medal at an Olympic weight (74kg)...Ono can't hold a candle to Buvaisar
  5. Styles make matches and if I was betting I'd rather Taylor wrestle Ghaz than Sad. If DT is dialed in he is more than capable of winning this match. Despite the earlier results still consider him the favorite in this match if it happens
  6. @jross this is the correct answer. Let's say you take 2 high level guys equal in talent. The hardest move either could execute on each other would be an elementary level move like pinning with a half nelson
  7. Happy for Zahid, great addition for DT, and potentially awesome for Team USA. We should all be on board with these kind of moves if we want to improve
  8. I've always considered you @ionel & @nhs67 the Three Turdskateers. But what's up with @flyingcement and his negative thread? Election season getting the best of him? I want Fly Flanders back
  9. Great stuff cowcards. Was curios if you have the Smith's and Perry's as one family or are you only using the paternal line?
  10. Thanks! Unfortunately for us the most athletic of the clan, JT Realmuto, opted for some pastime sport. Forget what it's called.
  11. Impressive for the brothers but as a family can you include Mark & Chris Perry and by extension Mark Perry Sr through marriage to Kathy?
  12. The majority of PSU fans have stepped on the mat. It's Pennsylvania after all
  13. When was our last Best families in wrestling thread? Have we had one yet on the new forum? @Wrestleknownothing maybe a fun project for you. @cowcards & @Jason Bryant must have the data on this
  14. That's brilliant. Count me in
  15. - Okie State looking for their first win in Carver since 2012 ( @ionel fact check) - KOT wrestling to be Mizzou's 2nd 3X NCAA Champ - Bono's last year @ Wiscy? - Pritzlaff starts his coaching career at Columbia - Where does Marcus Blaze commit to - Does Kolat get his 2nd AA this year (Koderhandt)
  16. @Fred & @Interviewed_at_Weehawken should start a podcast called, "WE HATE STATE"
  17. @ILLINIWrestlingBlog great list...I don't particularly have a favorite. Depends what mood I'm in. But for me best movie ever made is "There Will Be Blood" "One night, I'm gonna come to you, inside of your house, wherever you're sleeping, and I'm gonna cut your throat."
  18. You have to ask Puritan Grand Master @Interviewed_at_Weehawken...Only he knows what's ethical
  19. Verbal commitment's are not binding. They are unofficial. It has alway been that way. Sure we can argue using the word "commitment" but it has never been anything more than stating that at that moment the athlete has one particular school as his/her leader.
  20. This is not true. This is another thread of your's trying in any way shape or form to shit on Penn State again. Plenty of athletes verbally commit and still take visits to other schools prior to signing. You're just making shit up. A verbal commitment is nothing more than saying, "hey i right now I'm vibing with this school."
  21. Can speak from personal experience. A verbal is nothing more than a verbal. Until there is a signature the recruitment is open. Nothing unethical about it. Some go the "do not contact" route and that was respected.
  22. Of course you can. It's part of the fun. David Taylor is still undefeated against Dake.
  23. Valid point. More fun if my question is open ended and you can interpret the question however you'd like. As for Pyles his exact quote is, "The best wrestler that Carter Starocci will ever face is gonna be in his senior year." I still believe that's debatable
  24. Pyles posted on X (formerly known as twitter) proposing Parker will be Carter's toughest opponent on the road to winning a title. Maybe I'm biased as a PA boy but for me I'd put SR citizen KemDog vs Freshman Carter as his biggest obstacle. Curious to read where you fellas are at on this topic
