  1. I seriously hope that the NCAA switches and follows suit on the wrestling weight classes as well.
  2. I wasn't curious. It pisses me off to no end when guys that have a serious amount of talent such as him (and Focus) play around on their knees. When they don't actually do anything with it, it is blatant stalling and cringe.
  3. I couldn't 30 years ago when we could cut limbs off. I was a lean 134lber. That said, just because we are hefty as a nation does not mean the lowest weight class needs increased. If the UWW dictates an increase, I will agree then. Of course, I am of the mind that we need to line our scholastic and collegiate weights with UWW.
  4. I don't think it is too low, to be clear.
  5. You gents mean to tell me that 125lbs is difficult for growing men to hold? Davis, Ayala, Noto, and Stanich all decide 125lbs is too low?
  6. That 8-2 loss by Barr was about as close a loss as you can get with the points total being 8-2. Common theme is that the Russo gents and Eastern Europeans will let the American's wrestle themselves in to a hole and happily stall themselves to a victory.
  7. If that is what you were told, or read on these forums, then you are only paying attention to anti-Iowa rhetoric. That is a you thing.
  8. Who waz Lockett's coach? Lewisnski? He spent more time on his knees in the 2nd period doing nothing than Monica did in Clinton's 2nd term.
  9. What the actual phuk was that 79 KG match? Ryder's opponent did lwss than nothing the entire match. What a cunt.
  10. Loyalty should go hand-in-hand with honesty. The Brands bros have been dishonest through this whole process, blatantly lying to families and former wrestlers (who transferred out due to the lying).
  11. There are differences between what Iowa is doing and what Michigan, Penn State, Oklahoma State, and Iowa State did. From everything that is said from these four compared to Iowa, Iowa is the only one where the coaches are playing the "I don't know what's happening" game. Michigan, Penn State, and Iowa State were transparent. Oklahoma State has a new coaching staff and turnover should be expected.
  12. Of course eight of them were room guys. They have transfers that are likely to earn the nod at 125, 141, 149, 157, 165 and 197. None of them were going to start at their weights because of that. All ten may start this year for the respective schools. That does say something for the depth that was at Iowa, but also for the loyalty that the coaching staff has towards the product they were trying to build before NIL/Portal days. It is admitting that they essentially suck at development.
  13. Let's adopt the MFS weights and the MFS rules!
  14. This makes me wonder if he is on the Trumble sort of path. 197lbs is too much of a cut, but there is a HWT in the room already.
  15. To you.
  16. He isn't actually banned. It is a choice thing. What is funny, is once you get to know him, which I have also noticed this with the 95%+ of you other gents that come off as abrasive turdbiscuits, he is actually about as swell as they come with morals and ethics that are above reproach. For all accounts that should matter, he is top notch.
  17. I get actual physical hate mail.
  18. It strikes me as odd that he hasn't improved his deadlift since high school.
  19. This x2. FREE LJB!
  20. Got this one for you.
  21. Please see my above post, that I will also quote for you.
  22. Ah, fair. Yeah it would have been way off if comparing to Folkstyle, for sure.
  23. For Northern Iowa, they have coaches and coaches who have kids who focus on MGR around that weight. NC State was perplexing for me. I would have said tOSU before them.
  24. I mean... sure. I understand the 'legal' logistics to it. It works, though.
