Sad to say, but I think Facundo needs to transfer at wrestle closer to his natural weight (174). I could see him being the next Bearclaw and AA'ing for another program. Penn State is so loaded they can't wait 2+ years for a guy to develop.
Didn't Kasak score the only TD of the match vs Facundo?
I think Kasak is better than Facundo in all 3 positions in folk. Facundo may be the better freestyler though.
How impressive is Barr's 10-1 win over Lucas Cochran and his 11-0 win over Mirasola?
Cochran beat #8 HWT Yaraslau Slavikouski 8-3 last year while weighing under 197 pounds.
Doesn't playing in the WNBA count as being a professional athlete? I would see it equivalent to Lebron James trying to start a college basketball career after playing 20 years in the NBA.
Facundo had a less than impressive win over an unranked Drexel opponent. Kasak had a close win over a ranked opponent at the All-Star classic. Facundo looks emaciated at 157 -- he was wrestling 171 his final year of HS.
Who do you go with at 157? My personal pick is Kasak.
This flip flopping isn't a good sign for Gable's long term career. Say he comes back and wins a 2nd NCAA title, great for him but no one will really be that surprised or impressed. Then what?
NFL is out. WWE is out. Where does he go from there?
Interesting that dad is wearing a Purdue hat in the picture. Does the little brother wrestle? May need to start recruiting him early if he's like Marcus...
