  1. Eh, it’s actually a sharp contrast and two camps. There’s a good chunk of “liberals” in wrestling. They are “usually” pretty “conservative” about things like hard work and whatnot. I’ve found grandstanders like Timmy boy(Foley) to be the exception not the rule. Ironically. You also have a lot of coaches who may lean conservative but will trigger both left and right because they will casually and matter of a factly, talk about everyday cases of racism that happen all the time. So you get this weird dichotomy of limousine liberals looking down or criticizing the coaches for holding kid’s accountable and other such “conservative” things. And, conservatives getting in a huff because the coach they know isn’t liberal.. matter of a factly talks about actual racist stuff their athletes go through or deal with. I know football coaches familiar with this dichotomy as well. TLDR.. it’s more complicated than you think
  2. Sioredas loves unorthodox long lanky guys to coach up. Amazing what Bernie has done for the program
  3. Which teams?
  4. Yeah if he’s left Tulsa.. not a good look.. saying he’s being a brat.. is generous edit: looks like he’s there
  5. I don’t relish it. At all. I’ve actually defended his decision to wrestle at Iowa.. but I’m not shocked he lost. Kinda figured if he lost it would be exactly like that. I also figured he wouldn’t show up. Is what it is. He wrestled with a bit of an entitled attitude this season that made him even more vulnerable in my opinion. I hope I lose my sig bet with Bnt, but I was right about Lee so far
  6. Garland has less admin support and resources.. and you know very well that UVA is not an “athletics oriented” school like VT…
  7. Oh no. The glasses thing is a meme on Reddit .. sigh
  8. I think he’s come to love wrestling and covering it. But still is.. awkward at the interviews. If you watch him, especially in the other sessions it really comes through
  9. Sigh. I literally agreed with you… genius
  10. Sure why not. Just remind me what to put as the signature if I lose. I is hella busy. How long for? Since I’ll probably lose If I win (Lee doesn’t win US open) your signature will be “Spencer was just a bully boy at the smallest weight”
  11. This. Dude used to obviously be doing it as an obligation/job. And has very clearly come to love wrestling and doing the tournament. Is he perfect. Nah
  12. Gotch Smith just to start and it’ll be real easy to add names depending on how tomorrow goes
  13. That’s too much typing. Is there a way to make it a signature? im actually kinda leaning to Lee takes off rest of year.
  14. I don’t do bets. And I just own it if I’m wrong. But his bully style wrestling is not a fit for the Senior Circuit
  15. Lee had been wrestling with the dangerous type of arrogance and bully boy attitude that always makes me think a guy can be beaten when someone can find a way to stay in a match with them.. did I think it’d be Ramos.. no. I honestly thought he’d just fizzle out on the Senior Circuit. But I’m not surprised either When I suggested that he was a bully boy wrestler who’s cardio would be looked at much differently if he wasn’t a Hawkeye and other reasons.. I got screeched at.
  16. Whilst I know some will whine about non top 5% recruits and teams AAing and winning. And are crying about the seeds. It’s great to see competitive depth and more schools having success. If people actually want wrestling to to do well. This is good. Competitive depth is.. a good thing. The whining is getting old already. Even before the 5 threads whining about “seeding start
  17. Ramos’ composure stands out
  18. Lockport represent
  19. I’d be okay for hs with this if nearfall was done like college with 2 and 4
  20. But where are the updated brackets
  21. What’s a place to get the updated pdf to print?
