  1. The Brands coach their wrestlers the way Gable coached them. However, Gable didn't coach every wrestler the way he coached the Brands. Gable was able to figure out how each individual needed to be coached.
  2. Is there somebody right now that you think would be a better head coach at Iowa?
  3. Churella pinning Hendricks in the 2006 NCAA Finals.
  4. We mock what we don't understand.
  5. Is this take a joke?
  6. Couldn't the wrestler on two legs also drop to a knee? And if the first wrestler doesn't hop up and attempt a FHL, he is stalling? It could go on and on like that.
  7. Did Jimmy wonder if Duane Goldman plateaued after his sophomore and junior years?
  8. Anthony Robles wrestled from all fours in neutral. He was not called for stalling because he stayed centered on the mat and engaged with the opponent. Dropping to a knee needs context before we decide if it is stalling.
  9. Carl says "no". End of story. Wait until he retires to bring this up again.
  10. Metcalf won the Hodge in the same season he was pinned. Nick Ackerman won the Hodge in the same season he had four losses.
  11. I think it proves he was cutting way too much weight for 197 lbs.
  12. More Hodge Trivia: Emmett Willson is the only Hodge winner to never win NCAAs.
  13. Lewboo had some great cutting stories on the old board. There was the time he was cutting in the summer for a freestyle tournament and he broke when he ran past a swimming pool on a golf course. He jumped in clothes and all and gulped the pool water. He also wrote an article where he proclaimed Bruce Kinseth the "King of all Cutters."
  14. Kole Conrad vs Steven Mocco
  15. Great call. The Spiral Stall Ride vs the Drop to a Leg and Push Out Stall Ride
  16. I'm with you on Thompson. He also won a World Bronze and is a NWHOF member.
  17. Baseball and most of the other sports besides football are joining the Horizon league. I'm not aware of any sports that are joining the Summit.
  18. I have a cervical spinal fusion. I can't imagine he is getting a fusion if he plans on returning to competition. I assume he is getting a disc replacement. Once you fuse the spine, you obviously lose mobility in that joint, but that has an impact on the other joints, especially immediately above and below the fusion site. Those joints take on extra stress that the fused joint cannot. Therefore those adjacent joints become more susceptible to injury.
  19. I would be shocked if he got cervical fusions and continued to wrestle.
  20. Ackerman vs Sanderson for 2001 Hodge dibs Lee vs Steveson for 2021 Hodge dibs
  21. Did the Hammers get Bono to sign off on Burwick?
  22. He took losses in matches when he didn't need to win them in order to win the Gold. The bad mark/good mark era was like that.
  23. I'm not quite sure what he meant either. I don't see too much of a difference between Oly weight and non-Oly weight World Titles, except in the Olympic years when only non-Olympians can enter.
