  1. Brooks may be hurt. Wouldn't be surprised to see him done for the rest of the Olympics.
  2. The Lee is looking dominant...gold is coming. It. is. inevitable.
  3. He looked like skeletor at 57 kg and had nothing on the mat. I think he either needs to bump up to 61kg or go the MMA route. Sad to see such an energetic wrestler melt like wax on the mat.
  4. It will be tough for the men to match the women's success.
  5. Let's be realistic - the average American still has no idea who she is. I doubt you're going to see her doing many national endorsements and getting any significant come. Men's wrestling is a niche sport and women's wrestling is probably 1/100 of what men's is in this country.
  6. Iowa is the only game in town and Nichols has deep pockets. Offer her $2 million and I'm sure she will be in black and gold next year.
  7. Yup, I imagine Iowa would offer her more than $1 million in NIL to become a Lady Hawkeye.
  8. If it was just a "few grams" why didn't she just shave her head?
  9. Lee would crush RBY. RBY looks like a skeleton at this weight.
  10. This. There are 35 swimming events in the Olympics, and a swimmer could theoretically swim in 18 of the 35 events. Even if a wrestler could wrestle both freestyle and greco at most they could win 2 medals per Olympics.
  11. But she could get a free college degree using her skills. Certainly worth something, even as a gold medalist.
  12. She just won the gold medal but is not on a college roster. She would obviously get a full scholarship to the Iowa Lady Hawkeyes. Any reason why she isn't wrestling on the NCAA level too?
  13. It was reported internationally: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/arron-brooks-wrestler-comments-muslims-b2305413.html
  14. Brooks has been outspoken in his Christianity and has explicitly disavowed Mohammed. Yazdani is obviously Muslim. Would a Brooks Yazdani matchup have some extra religious fervor behind it?
  15. This is excellent news for Spencer. The 2nd best news after the Russians boycotting.
  16. I assume it's Dake as he's the #1 seed. But in reality is it Spencer given there's no Russian in his bracket now?
