Ask a guy like Terry Brands if he would trade his Olympic bronze for one of his world golds.

I seriously hope it works out, but the history makes me have doubts.

Moran and Washington took until their last seasons to AA Sollars - Fargo AA and super 32 placer, hasn't developed as quickly as his HS rival stephen little Sam Goin - top 100 recruit out of HS Gavin Jendreas - was top 20 nationally at his weight in HS, still has time Robert Major - fargo AA, never really cracked the lineup Alec Freeman - multiple state placer, never was a regular starter Rooks twins - had some solid wins in their careers but never could reach AA status Asa Garcia - 3x state champ, top 10 nationally in his weight, transferred out Transfers like Orlando Cruz and Logan Frazier - jury is still out on them These guys were all Indiana "hammers" that went to IU and didn't do as well as people hoped/thought they would Then throw in missing out on every single "elite" prospect in Indiana like Mendez, Jake Hockaday, Zeke Seltzer, and Christian Carroll, it should make his seat warm

He's gotten some "hammers" from IN before that haven't developed

Nick Simmons, right?

Escobedo at IU should be but he won't be. 2 AA's during his 9 seasons, a 6th in '25 and and 8th in '26. He has failed to land the elite, or near elite, in-state talent and what he does get hasn't developed. Case in point, Gabe Sollars. Sollars and Stephen Little traded matches in HS, sollars teched him in freestyle after their senior seasons. Does anybody really thing Sollars would keep it to a regular decision now? Very unlikely. Purdue is getting the talent that doesn't leave the state. Should be concerning for IU, but it won't be. At least Goldman could produce a couple of national champs and frequently had AA's.

Where can this be watched? YouTube? I've seen clips on social media but not sure where to find the full episodes

I'd put AJ Ferrari on this list. Absolutely awful to watch. Loved when Bastida rag dolled him.

I believe that wrestling is only fun when you are winning. It makes all the training worthwhile. If you are constantly getting beat in competition, wrestling loses the fun part. When I was just stating out, wrestling was a novelty for me. I don't think I won a match during my first 2 and half seasons. It was hardly fun, just a way for my parents to keep my doing something until baseball season started. I started winning in 3rd grade, finished 6th at freestyle state. From then on it became fun. My HS team was ranked 1st in the state, and senior year we were top 20 in the nation. Kicking people's butts every week is a lot of fun.

A 51 year old man who hasn't wrestled in 30+ years and was nowhere close to elite...What a great idea.

My buddy and I met him in Philly at the '25 NCAA's. We were at the Rocky statue and saw him walk up. He was very gracious and took a few pics with us. He was the baddest man on the planet for my generation so to meet him was awesome!

All three Lee brothers skipped their senior year of HS and were at the NLWC for a year before enrolling. Worked out well for Nick, but not so much Joe and Matt.

Not a chance it happens. They will have to take down Clinton and other politicians, power brokers, celebs, etc. The names will never get released.

Unless LL can figure out how to not get turned by spencer he won't win. His win at the US Open was a fluke and spencer dominated him at final x. Knox may progress to come close to LL but he's not close to spencer. Unless spencer's body fails him, its his weight through the Olympics.

I don't think anybody touches him with the DV allegations in Nebraska with the pregnant GF
