  2. Based on the audio, the air traffic controller did nothing wrong. Seems like the blame is on the helicopter.
  3. This is a troll account and not actually his uncle right?
  4. Also saw a PSU fan on x claiming it was also because Arnold was saying things back…
  5. Wait do you actually want Angelo at OSU?
  6. Is this a “Dan Gable would get killed in today’s NCAA’s” argument, or are you talking in relation to their peers?
  7. One argument in favor of Iowa is that they won 9 straight titles from 1979-1986, and 6 straight from 1995-2000 (last 3 by Zalesky). PSU’s most consecutive is 4, which they did twice with only the tOSU title in there for the 8 titles in 9 years. But in addition to the 9 straight, Iowa also had 9 titles in 10 years from 1991-2000. http://fs.ncaa.org.s3.amazonaws.com/Docs/stats/wrestling_champs_records/D1.pdf Looking at the above link, if we’re using the stretch I first listed, their most points was in 1986, where they had 5 champs, a 2nd, a 4th and a 5th. I’m not getting into comparing individual guys, but those places would certainly stack up with PSU’s expected places especially if we’re talking in a dual.
  8. I was not alive during most of the stretch I cited, so can’t comment on how it felt
  9. Was before my time but looking at Iowa’s historic results they seem comparable and probably even better at least during a few stretches so for that reason I wouldn’t say PSU’s dominance is “the death of college wrestling.” For example in the 80’s they had a streak of 7 years with at least 8 AA’s, including 6 straight years of having 5+ finalists: ‘79-‘80: 8 AA’s (1-1-2-3-3-4-7-8) ’80-‘81: 9 AA’s (1-1-2-2-2-5-7-7-7) ’81-‘82: 8 AA’s (1-1-1-2-2-3-6-7) ’82-‘83: 9 AA’s (1-1-1-1-2-3-4-5-5) ’83-‘84: 8 AA’s (1-2-2-2-2-4-5-6) ’84-‘85: 9 AA’s (1-1-2-2-2-4-5-5-5) ’85-‘86: 8 AA’s (1-1-1-1-1-2-4-5) https://hawkeyesports.com/news/2004/06/16/all-americans
  10. I agree with @PortaJohn, there are a lot of knowledgeable posters there but also many not so knowledgeable ones. As a fan of neither Iowa or PSU I much prefer reading HR or whatever they’re calling these days vs BWI or whatever they’re calling it these days. Pretty much every thread on the PSU board is just “trust in Cael!”
  11. No it will still count either way. Cael was only allowed to wrestle in open tournaments, this happened in a dual.
  12. Still speculation of course, but thought this was good insight without any politics
  13. I don’t see 8 finalists happening. Mesenbrink & Starocci damn near 100% chance but gets a little dicey after that. I’d go something like: Kerk 65% Haines 60% Kasak 55% Van Ness 50% Barr 35% Bartlett 30% Lilledahl 25% Davis 15% I wouldn’t be super surprised to see 5 champs but I’d be very surprised to see 8 in the finals. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see 9 in the semis though and we know PSU usually does well in the semis…
  14. Meh, I think Ferrari would need 120+ wins and to beat some studs to get in the conversation. This all very premature of course considering he has 0 titles.
  15. Another interesting tidbit, multiple posters claiming that the reason Arnold left the bench before 184 is because there was heckling from PSU fans. One poster said it included “vulgar” remarks and that some fans were kicked out
  16. Yes and that their guys “never get tired”
  17. I think he thought Ferrari had a better chance of beating Starocci
  18. Hawkeye report in panic mode Multiple comments in match thread accusing PSU of “strength training,” which for some apparently even includes something illegal to help their conditioning Comments from people wanting to move on from the Brands bros, but that doesn’t seem super uncommon on there People (rightfully) afraid that OSU will pass Iowa One guy in literally the same post that he listed one of Cael’s accomplishments being an Olympic Gold medal, said he was a “nobody on the world stage” (to be fair other posters are saying that post was dumb) Thread: “how much will it cost to keep Ferrari,” includes comments that Kueter is getting $500k and was allegedly offered $800k to quit football completely and declined
  19. Yup, plus for PSU Starocci coming back forced Cochran to the bench who probably could have been a mid to low AA at 197.
  20. Sounds like this was a good dual that came down to the last match. I thought I had access to it on ESPN+ but apparently not. And don’t see it posted by any of the YT accounts from India yet
  21. To be fair, according to the numbers floating around, Iowa spent slightly more on Buchanan + Teemer + Parco combined than PSU spent to bring Starocci back. Iowa probably got a better bang for their buck TBH
  22. I think one of Amine or Barraclough can stop the streak if they make it to him
  23. In the 7:40 one he even lifted him up for a fraction of a second. Considering this was his second ever match against a D1 starter, I think if he was the guy at 184 and got more matches under his belt that I wouldn’t be surprised if he took Starocci down. But alas, it appears it is not to be.
