My bad. Mesenbrink is so dominant I lose track of everyone else in that weight class. I would love to see Caliendo close that gap.

Schultz was a millisecond from a takedown to tie it up. Something did happen but Hendrickson didn't appear to call time until Schultz was going behind. Whatever. Schultz didn't seem to argue the call so why should we? (I was pulling for Ok State)

Nick Saban said " it's not how much money you spend, you have to spend it on the right players?"

More strength never hurts.

Buchanan started at Wyo then OU. Before yesterday I would say he and Ayala give/gave Iowa hope for a finalist. Similar to Hamiti and Hendrickson at Ok State. Agree on Mesenbrink #1

Cardenas should probably be at least an honorable mention in this discussion.

No but he is OK State's best (only) chance at a finalist.

All Star match was fun.

I never said he couldn't score. It's just painful to watch his matches for the entire 7 minutes.

I don't care where Bartlett is seeded. I just hope ESPN goes to commercials when he wrestles and just replays his one shot per match.

Good call but if they don't ignore them he could be a huge (literally) road block in the quarters.

Strickenberger should be in the conversation. Besides Big 12 champ, he must be hollow. He looked huge compared to Spratley.

Did you watch the Big 12 final? He could easily have lost but a mysterious injury timeout saved him. I was surprised the ASU coach didn't explode. If that situation had involved the Nebraska coaching committee it would have been pandemonium.

WADA has stopped drawing blood or taking urine and is now using the hot dog test but only on athletes who are jerks.
