This weekend is going to have so many backups across the Big Ten lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is what I thought. Him being enrolled vs him actually wrestling as soon as this week are two very different things. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Woodley??? What did I miss Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a question I didn’t want to start a new thread for. Is this Mason Parris’s last year of eligibility? I forgot he never actually used a redshirt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tom Brands needs to get his team some more vitamin c. They seem to have sweeping illnesses at least a couple times a year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Siebrecht went double unders and put Brayton to his back almost instantly, rode him for the whole period, and then it was a whole bunch of nothing from there. Brayton got in on some deep shots late but never really threatened. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man I hope you’re right but the way he kept getting caught flat footed against a wrestler he’s far better than, and how badly he was limping afterwards, idk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice to see Minnesota keep it close in terms of team score, and definitely wrestled tough in the matches we lost, but if Salazar is hurt then it was all a net negative imo. He’s one of few that I think can score points in March but that leg looked bad late in that match. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, well, I think our U of M is cooler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I wasn’t necessarily bringing them up to say they are reasons to not bring Mesenbrink in, more so to say that he would already have two guys around him that he already knows well. Riddle is likely a depth guy, long shot to be a factor in the lineup. Millard though I think can be a good starter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ethan Riddle is a 174 from AWA coming in as well. I’d imagine that Millard 157, Mesenbrink 165, Riddle 174 would work just fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cody Goodwin is an A+ follow on Twitter Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Decent amount of AWA guys going to or already at Minnesota. Hoping they have a shot there. Whether he’s a 165 or 174 that’s round peg meet round hole. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Probables have TBA @ 184 for Iowa. Assad not listed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I worded it weird. What I meant was, outside of Brayton, Nagao, O’Reilly or Salazar, everything else would be a major upset. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think there’s a path to victory for Brayton Lee, and wouldn’t be shocked if he did it, but any other wins than that, O’Reilly, Nagao and Salazar would be significant upsets. I’m not seeing it… but would love it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Iowa is a really bad matchup for Minnesota on paper. Especially with the way Brayton Lee is wrestling, and Iowa having the only 125 that I am confident McKee cannot beat (obviously). 125 Lee pins McKee 0-6 133 Nagao dec Teske 3-6 141 Woods dec Bergeland 3-9 149 Murin dec Blockhus 3-12 157 Siebrecht dec Lee 3-15 165 Kennedy dec Carlson 3-18 174 O’Reilly dec Brands 6-18 184 Salazar dec Assad 9-18 197 Warner dec Foy 9-21 HWT Cass maj Joles 9-25 Would love to see the gophers win at 157 but I ain’t banking on it. My unpopular pick is Salazar over Assad, but I think the other two wins are reasonable. Hope we can keep it close at 141, 149, 165 and 197. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Old people accidentally saying dirty things without realizing it is objectively always funny. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Was not expecting us to take 165 or 174, let alone both. Good showing from the Gophs so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This debate is as tired as it can get, but just switch to freestyle. Don’t waste time trying new rules in folkstyle. Make the switch to what the rest of the world does. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wrestleback Pat McKee Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bartlett over Woods in a tight one. Possibly ride outs. Don’t think there’s more than 1 takedown scored. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As a typically-optimistic gopher fan I am feeling oddly pessimistic about this one. Also don’t think we see Nagao. But would be very happy if we did. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wouldn’t mind this lineup at all, and I think it’s possibly our best dual lineup, but Vance Vombaur will likely be a factor at 141 or 149 (he started a couple times this year, and one was a convincing win over Clay Carlson of SDSU). I also think McKee will try his damndest to stay at 125 and capitalize on a weight class finally vacated by Spencer Lee, and Nagao is too small for 141 as of now. I think Spratley rides the bench one more year. Drew Roberts could factor in at 149 as well. Need a transfer at 174, badly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gophers have three legit shots at AA right now, and Brayton Lee and Jake Bergeland aren’t any of them. It’s McKee, Nagao, and Salazar. Minnesota is a team made up of a bunch of guys that could place anywhere from 7th to going 2-2. Solid wrestlers, solid dual team, but no contenders. Some of our young guys and recruits coming in give me hope for the future though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
