Good dual. Interesting since Matthews was really the only Pitt win that was particularly close (although 125 an upset). So even if that result changes they still would’ve needed a Feldman win over Pitzer which would’ve been a good match.
Ok I’m probably misremembering. I might’ve been thinking of the PSU hat thing but I guess they were never even in his top 5 so they likely weren’t recruiting him
Yes I was agreeing with your overall point that it seems Iowa fans shouldn’t expect any bonus from Franek at NCAA’s. But would’ve thought he could’ve had a couple already
He had several bonus victories last season. But looks like probably only one against someone that qualified for NCAA’s. I was mostly just shocked he had a close match even with someone that Lewan teched, as Lewan has mostly close matches too.

I like how BTN has been doing the “highlight” videos this year by mostly showing scoring sequences (as opposed to last year they would just pick the 4 or 5 best matches and show their entirety).
Ayala looked pretty good teching Babin.
Franek continues to have relatively close wins over guys that other people have bonused. The Columbia guy was actually teched by low scoring Will Lewan. Franek does not yet have a bonus victory this season over a D1 opponent.
Highlight for Iowa was probably Schriever with a SV win over Angelo Rini. 133 starter probably not yet decided. Schriever did also confirm he had been suspended for gambling.
That’s why I said depends on your definition of “wrong.” Maybe not “wrong,” but hypocritical if he got mad at Willie for criticizing a team but then does it himself
Depends on your definition of “wrong” I guess. It’s a little ironic since apparently Willie got in trouble for saying “what’s going on in Columbus” and supposedly CP was mad because they didn’t want the coaches to be mad at them and give them less access. Which may be the reason why some on x/twitter thought his response to Borrelli meant he didn’t care about American…
