  1. Yeah, I think many people called him lucky after his first title. But the second title elevated him to legendary gamer status.
  2. It was the US Open.
  3. yes
  4. “This world has a lot of work to do on social injustice issues and that work is important on our campus and that work is important in our athletic department. And it’s important in our wrestling program. And it’s important to me. Diligence is high.” https://hawkfanatic.com/2022/02/09/tom-brands-issues-public-apology-to-wisconsin-wrestler-austin-gomez/
  5. doing hardly nothing to win means you are doing a lot to win
  6. Isn't that precisely why an asterisk should be used?
  7. Four timer* but if he bumps up and prevents a five timer he will be the second best 4xer in my book
  8. A low core temperature can also indicate poor thyroid function.
  9. Is STED a high School?
  10. I've wondered for years why Robles didn't win the Hodge. He beat a returning (and future) Champ in the finals.
  11. Nick Ackerman is an inspiration, I am glad he won the Hodge. What he did borders on heroic.
  12. And what's interesting is the B1G received fewer total allocations in 2009 with the new weight class system of allocations. Funny stuff happened that year, like some weight classes in the Big XII were completely allocated and qualified before the conference tournament.
  13. At the time, I believe the B1G was allocated over a total of 70 qualifying spots. So, the B1G decided to make all top 7 placers in each weight class a NC qualifier. Then there were a few spots left over, so it was agreed that the remaining qualifiers would be voted on by the coaches from a pool of 8th place finishers. In 2008, Henning didn't make it to the 7th place match, so he wasn't eligible per B1G rules to be voted in as a qualifier. It wasn't an NCAA rule.
  14. Nope, it’s Askren 100%. It started long before Bono was the coach. It started when Barry Davis didn’t offer him enough of a scholarship.
  15. A multi-loss D3 guy won the Hodge. So I guess Hendrickson has a chance…
  16. Looks like a lot of them stick close to home. Makes sense, there are a ton of D1 opportunities relatively close to the Lehigh Valley.
  17. George Mehnert won two Olympic Golds.
  18. Wisconsin Ben Peterson: Olympic Gold, Olympic Silver, World Bronze, 2X NCAA Champ John Peterson: Olympic Gold, Olympic Silver, World Silver, World Bronze HM Dennis Hall: Olympic Silver, World Gold, World Bronze
  19. I wonder if Hamiti will hold on to the #1 seed. May not matter much between #1 and #2, but might be easier to face Fish in semis instead of Caliendo.
  20. The joke used to be that NAIA stood for No Academic Investigations Allowed.
  21. Leigel from Wisconsin is a grad transfer from D3, was 3,1,2 at D3 tournament. He's been ranked in the teens most of the second half of this season. Obviously he has the benefit of being in a B1G room this season, but this will give a glimpse on how a D3 stud might fair in D1.
  22. Not always, Askren beat him in the Big 12 Finals his freshman year.
  23. Does anyone really see him going somewhere to be an assistant coach?
