Well it can fit in with the topic of “can PSU break the record again next year”? At least Davis has a redshirt available.

Man my memory isn’t as bad as I thought, if only I could remember more important things

Thank you @Mr. PeanutButter calling out he will be on FRL tomorrow. Maybe to announce he’ll be wrestling for Penn State?

Who was accused of taking dives or laundering money?

Fair enough, but although It wasn’t directly in response to anything about his matches, he had literally just been talking about the Kasak match (and how he “didn’t know” what went wrong) immediately before the question about his weight next year

Here is Shapiro with the other guy he lost to, so doesn’t appear he was accusing him

This interview was after the Kasak match right? If so, I do think he was accusing Kasak, but he has plausible deniability.

Basch said on his show with Willie that he was hearing Sealey could be going in the portal

Can’t remember who posted it now (IAwrestle maybe?) but there was a since-deleted post saying Swiderski to Iowa

125, 133, 149 were not great. But 7 out of 10 ain’t bad

Speaking of Robinson, I saw someone ask on xitter if there had ever been anyone else win a title as a freshman that was never a state champ? I have no idea (and no I’m not including Blair or Wyoming Sem dudes)

Lol

$0? Why?

I know there were some comments about the 6 and 7 year guys often flaming out. But half of the champs were 6th year guys - Byrd (and still has 1 more year), Lovett, Starocci, Buchanan, and Hendrickson (I’m counting “Air Force Prep” as a redshirt year). But in reference to @Paul158’s thread, only 3 of those - Byrd (assuming he wrestles next year), Starocci, and Hendrickson will have the chance at 5 NCAA tournaments (Lovett and Buchanan both wrestled in 2020).

Isaac Trumble not happy about NIL collectives at NC State? Lots of Nebraska fans in the comments wanting him to go there. (Although in the post right before this he talked about loyalty)

Kerk must have been pretty hurt to MFF out. Could’ve broke that one

Two portal guys one of which pulled off possibly the biggest upset in NCAA tournament history and one of which had never finished higher than 6th, both of which had to beat 2 NCAA champs for their titles… Plott seemed like basically the same guy to me. I was a little disappointed in Surber, he was having a great year and seemed to show the biggest improvement during the season. But I believe Surber and Jamison were the only guys to underperform their seed? But, also kinda hard to nitpick their homegrown guys when he didn’t recruit any of them…

Hopefully he gives Taylor a chance to have 4 or 5 full recruiting classes

I believe Hendrickson mentioned his role within the Air Force was to buy equipment. Hopefully he doesn’t get DOGE’d

How many titles is Cael away from Gable? Starocci seemed to imply he might retire after he broke that

Fair enough, plus if it’s implemented in folk then there’d probably be arguments that the match was decided by a coin flip. The other option if getting rid of ride outs would be just stay neutral until someone scores. But then 125 may have never ended last night

C’mon Jimmy can you take a day off from trolling? Cruz lol. If anything he’s a good example of improvement, he was 0-2 against D1 competition in his redshirt year losing to guys from Ohio and Cleveland State one of which was a backup. Already addressed Teemer and Parco, if I’m not mistaken them plus Franek and Teske is the complete list of transfer starters that did not have their best finish while at Iowa.

Well he was 0-2 against Ferrari prior to this year

Of course, worth noting that on the whole this wasn’t even true even before this year. But Buchanan is their first transfer to win a title.
