‘‘Twas a good tournament last year, but not streamed (it was, but only one of three mats and no scoreboard). Hope ESPN+ handles it better this year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Putting on my Penn State hating glasses and saying I agree with these except for 157 Shapiro 174 O’Toole 184 Keckeisen Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

But I also agree with this. Forums are for bantering and arguing, who am I to complain about what the arguing is about. Go nuts I suppose! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s pretty hilarious seeing this whole forum crowded with the same 5-8 people having the same argument in 20 different threads. I do like when wrestling conversations pop up. I get enough politics talk in real life. Can’t imagine wanting to talk to strangers about it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sergio Vega and the Cortez brothers too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love this hire! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whiting at 165, I doubt it will be necessary but I don’t doubt he can make it. Not sure on Roberts, just heard he has a hurt shoulder. We’ll be much better off if it’s not serious. I think if they felt that Salazar was for sure going to handle Nelson, Salazar would’ve been named a captain. Instead it’s Askey and Vombaur. Salazar is still able to transfer in season as long as he does it before wrestling attached. I think that wrestle off is much closer than people anticipate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m pretty confident it’s going to be Kemerer Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Novak vs Barr would be very fun too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My hot take, Minnesota has AA’s at 174, 184 and 197 with Whiting, McEnelly and Salazar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wells vs Cardinal rubber match too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking at Flo’s rankings, they have eight guys ranked in the top 13, but only two in the top 8. Seems like that’s been the story of the team the last few years. A bunch of really solid guys, but no absolute stand outs (except Gable obviously). FWIW, I don’t think Sparks beats Whiting in a wrestle off and think Sparks will go 165. Haven’t heard on Wells. I’m a little nervous he can’t make 133 again, but we will see. He was a split second from AA as a true freshman, I’d love to see a jump too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Been told he’s walking around below 180 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Minnesota 125 - Cooper Flynn 133 - Tyler Wells 141 - Vance Vombaur 149 - Blaine Brenner maybe, Drew Roberts hurt 157 - Tommy Askey 165 - Sparks/Whiting loser 174 - Sparks/Whiting winner 184 - McEnelly 197 - Salazar/Nelson wrestle off 285 - Tabor, Hopke redshirt 149 is a hole, HWT TBD. Hearing Tabor finally put on some really good weight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Jordan Cardinal Gross? Siebrecht Siebrecht Rhodes? Devos Berge Glazier Rasmussen? Are the starters in stone at 141, 165 and HWT? I wonder if Logan Swenson can’t push for a spot right away Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Potential exciting coaching change in Gopher Land I’m hearing about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hasn’t he dealt with at least one season ending concussion? I could be misremembering, but if so, those don’t just go away. I’m inclined to believe there’s still injury concern. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That would be a bummer. I enjoy the Swensons quite a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think Swenson to 165 has been the plan since NCAA’s ended last year but I’m not 100% on that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My least favorite thing about freestyle is the chest wrap or head pinch off a shot to a cheap tilt to score. Just feels like it’s rewarding bad wrestling and the non-offensive guy. I know that’s technically not true but it drives me nuts watching it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And beer! I do enjoy beer with my smoking and gambling. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No but we can start the ‘every time gable isn’t the US HWT rep for the next ten years it’s a wasted opportunity’ thread Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

WHEN SPENCER? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is it 5am eastern time tomorrow that wrestling starts? I clearly don’t know how to time zone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
