I have said this in the past but being around a Power 5 Football program for many years I will say that if Ferentz really had plans for Kueter I don't believe they would have let him take a year off. I am not doubting his desire to do both but you really need to be fully dedicated to one or the other to have success.

I really thought Buchanan was the only guy that really looked to have a real horsepower edge on Barr. Granted he didn't wrestle everybody but I am not sure 2025 Barr could beat 2025 Buchanan if they wrestle 10 more times. Hard to say how he would do against Ferrari.

I think he has elite defense. Having something elite makes you a tough out wherever you are. He likely could get to a good 230lbs pretty easy. He would be in the title discussion

I remember the folks back in 1950 complaining about OSU.

we get so excited about the next freshman phenom that it really skews views of wrestlers. Look at Shapiro. Was projected as an All-Timer coming into NCAA Wrestling, now he has a 3rd and 5th place finish. Will he ever win a title? I think the Starocci v Keckeisen was the most anticipated by the majority. Many thought (hoped) there was no way that Starocci get beat him but he did and wasn't really close to being taken down. People don't like Starocci but I really do believe he is an All Time great. He isn't known as a scorer but finished with a 59% bonus rate. I wanted to see the 285 final that we got. I think Kerkvliet was beaten by Steveson before they start. It was nice to see someone match the athleticism

He is a world class freestyle wrestler not a ham and egger. I wouldn't worry about his folk skill set not being up to par

Depends on how overboard they go. I doubt he will be unbeatable, former WWE star, and former NFL player.

I can recognize that my cheering against GS was mostly due to jock sniffing media. They latch on and try to build a narrative and for me that makes me want to go in the opposite direction.

Some guys not used to losing don't lose well. Can't be me. They are cheating.

Or us he? Sometimes he is anti-PSU and sometimes he is a PSU homer.

With as little as they wrestle now you could probably shorten the season. If you are trying to get to 15 matches or so you only need 5 weekends and a single tournament.

Can you quantify greatest by what style a guy wrestlers? I guess you can. Some guys just won't break position no matter what. So guys will go for it no matter what. People like the second guy because it is entertaining, and you never know what will happen. The first can be just as excellent if not more so. To-ma-to vs To-mahh-to

It is hard to really laud AJ because he hasn't really wrestled. He only is at 46 career matches as this point. He has completed in one NCAA Championship.
