  1. Did Iowa have a loss the year they set the prior scoring record?
  2. Any school that gets anywhere near title contention will have had to double book, so part of their equation will be which among their recruits will transfer. Iowa and Oklahoma will probably make it closer in the next few years, but the portal rumors/actuals will start to effect them as well when that happens.
  3. It kept the score close, I would agree with that. He never threatened offensively.
  4. Facundo at least got one year and could get more. Also, he is at least improving in freestyle at NLWC. Manville makes sense in this category, but he never transferred out as well. Not sure his high school recruit ranking, and it seemed pretty obvious early on that he was probably not destined to become an NCAA champion.
  5. Are you trying to claim that taking a knee and backing up straight for the boundary won't beat Carter Starocci? What's-a-matter you?
  6. Without counting injured wrestlers like Robbie Howard, has there even been a top ten recruit that never started at Penn State for multiple years? Maybe Seth Nevills? Not sure who else. There are a lot of ways these guys can be slotted in and Cael seems to know how to do it.
  7. Sticking with PSU worked for Cassar. I think it worked for some other guys like even Terrel Barraclaw as he has improved tremendously. Looks like a probable All American in his final year and I'm not sure that ever happens without his time at PSU.
  8. I would like a fan of a team not listed here to rank the top ten listed wrestlers by how much internet ink they received for their title pursuits. I'd place Fix #1 followed close behind by maybe Marinelli and Kemerer.
  9. I doubt that. Davis re tweeked his knee against Shawver but was able to finish the match. Not that I know anything, I don't, but I guess he's fine by the Conf. Tournament.
  10. Just to be clear, I did not nor am I now accusing Drake of ducking. Just Brands expression as applied to Gabe seems funny to me. Also, I think a lot of PSU folks see that Davis missed a couple of matches and that Kasak's head has a nasty gash in it. Should PSU fans be worried? Personally, I think both will be fine. Starocci seemed far worse off late last year than these guys. Nolf in a prior year as well.
  11. Drake was not ducking, it was "load management".
  12. In a prior interview Cael said it was his knee.
  13. I mentioned the weight disparity above. Like I said, dummy me. Lol
  14. Beau Bartlett and Carter Starocci win by 17-3 major and 20-3 TF to upset intermat poster boredom.
  15. Is that Joey's win? I read the headline, but thank you I stand corrected. Probably should have also considered Scott outweighs Marcus. Dummy me. Lol.
  16. Still, high school junior beats two NCAA all americans. Those all americans being dead or not dead does not translate to Blaze not being able to get folkstyle takedowns which prompted these responses.
  17. Blaze beat Ed Scott in that same Clarion Open where he beat Matt Ramos. He also recently put a td clinic on the #2 guy at his weight in Ohio.
  18. Ok. It isnt Penn State. Its whatever school you want it to be.
  19. No. I would say the environment and philosophy around the Penn State program are bringing out the best in more wrestlers than anywhere else. Mesenbrink is an example of that.
  20. I don't get the whole yelling at your wrestler thing either but plenty of that happens.
  21. McEnelly vs Iowa, who wins? I really like McEnelly vs Arnold. I think vs Ferrari its a toss up but no matter the result I think McEnelly backs him up toward the edge. Once an edge staller vs. tough wrestlers, always an edge staller. That's Ferrari.
  22. A 2 second video that does not show what you claim and it's on a loop? Is this some kind of a joke?
  23. You would need a shot to have a shot to beat CStar.
  24. Bormet cost Cardenas the match vs Barr. Just imo he shoulda cut him loose in OT.
  25. You have it reversed. PSU is comparable at landing them but much better at developing them.
