  1. That's right. The NFL plays on SUN, MON, THU and even SAT. No TUE games.
  2. Guys coming in will need more than a year to really pick up what a new coach offers. Look at the Transers to Penn State. Most don't pick up "The Penn State Style" on the mat. Too often they have to try and overcome what they are doing and fail to build on it and add what Cael imparts to most of his other guys. The jury is out on whether Taylor can push guys to the top as a coach. It won't be a nice first year and a Title the second as Cael did. It is going to take him longer and until OSU beats Iowa Taylor won't be considered a success by the fans.
  3. Bet Taylor would take the spot and OSU would cheer him on in every way. A current Olympic Gold would really help recruiting.
  4. Gable now decides to go to Oklahoma State and wrestle for Davie the Magnificent!
  5. He was probably promised the job. Nothing in writing... and we all know an oral promise isn't worth the paper it is printed on.
  6. Those in charge of the Olympic Games KNOW this will happen every time. Why do they hold qualifiers in Nations that present a danger to some of the participants - as in this case a specific Nation: Israel? They obviously support this type of bigotry or they would make sure no qualifying location was set in Nations where this happens.
  7. He is a Mormon. Women are basically property. If he makes it to the Celestial Kingdom as a God he will have many wives as Polygamy is the Order of Heaven.
  8. The only thing Iowa can really count on is recurring Herpes problems in the room.
  9. Apparently going to move up two weight classes. Can his frame handle it? Has he been cutting a fair amount of weight to make 174? If so, maybe this jump makes sense. If he wrestles 197 and doesn't win - will it tarnish his reputation?
  10. Given this maybe Iowa should hire Ken Chertow?
  11. Iowa regrets Dan Gable getting old. He was, is and always will be "The Glory Years".
  12. He can't have an Olympic spot until 2028 when the games will be held in Los Angeles, CA. His planning so far shows he and his team of advisors don't know how to plan worth a damn.
  13. Then again he may be the Neon Dion Sanders at Colorado version for Wrestling. A lot of flash, smoke & mirrors, big transfers and then a bit of a fizzle.
  14. Not for him. He chose his path and now is Mr. Irrelevance. He can join Rulon as a perennial name to come up with each Olympic cycle.
  15. USC Trojans as Taylor is off to the West Coast to interview with USC for the head coaching position as it brings back Wrestling...
  16. Still better than another Ferrari thread... unless you are looking at the real Ferrari race cars on f1.com They are racing in Miami this weekend.
  17. With two schools having two 4 time NCAA Champions - where will the next 4 timer come from? Cornell & Penn State have two each. Doesn't give them the edge, does it? Iowa has none - are they due? Just about the schools, not which individual wrestler can probably do it. Way to many variables - both individually as well as for the school, but you have to start somewhere.
  18. Yep, and how many generations does one have to live in a place to be considered "native" and not an immigrant?
  19. Draft order for what? Where is the money for these guys?
  20. The lawsuit alleges DCI agents told the athletes they were not the targets of the investigation but rather were assisting in an inquiry of sports betting companies. They may not have been the targets but an investigator is always looking for others who show up during an investigation. Their defense is what... We Got Caught and that is not fair?
  21. Go back and watch Shultz vs Banach. A "sure thing" for 4 time champ - even though he had not yet won three.Mark stuffed that one. Go back further and watch Danny Gable in his final match. A "sure thing" for 3 time undefeated champ... You aren't the champ until you win the final match. ------------------- You win by pin or fall. "pinfall" is the girly man description and an abomination.
  22. Cox could help wrestlers get NIL money from alarm clock companies, maybe? Reality is both are very good wrestlers. Tough and know the sport. But..., can they coach? Can they work together? Do you really think they want the job? Most likely a big comedown in money and they would be stuck in Iowa.
  23. Don't discount Ferrari making a comeback. https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article/watch-sainz-brings-out-red-flags-with-dramatic-qualifying-crash-in-shanghai.1a1Jm2JWs95Vwp8KiM5HTX
  24. "After reading a thread on HR about where Spencer Lee stands in the pantheon of four timers I decided to take a look at 100%ers instead." Wondering why you don't have Ed Banach in there with Lee?
  25. Not if your leaks are in the basement.
