  1. As I understand Jesus’s message, making a spectacle of your beliefs can be consistent with spiritual poverty. Some of those with the deepest faiths may not say much about their faith at all. As Jesus said in the Gospel of Matthew: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
  2. Incorrect. Blaze made Final X last year.
  3. Everyone develops only their own tracks. DT and Dake made their first world teams at 27, and still managed to pull down some impressive hardware. It remains to be seen whether CStar sticks with freestyle, and if so how good he gets.
  4. One thing that's surprising to me is that Iowa, despite all its success -- including its super impressive run from 1975 to 2000 -- has never had a four-time champ. The only schools with four-time champs are: Cornell (2) PSU (2, including 5xer) OkSt OhioSt IowaSt
  5. Dake is 34 and potentially a bit undersized. He's a legend, but gotta go with CStar here.
  6. 57- Lee - Lilledahl 61- Vito - Forrest 65- McKenna - Hardy/Woods 70- Yianni - Andonian/Duke 74- MM - Carr/Jacques 79- Wick - Haines/Hamiti 86- Valencia - Dake/Starocci 92- Hidlay - Barr/Sinclair 97- ?? - Zillmer/Aiello 125- Hendrickson - Thomas/Hillger Are the bolded names correct?
  7. College wrestling is in a tough spot, so I think everyone wants to see Iowa thrive (maybe placing just below their favorite team). Iowa is a huge asset to college wrestling as a whole.
  8. What are the challenge tournament finals matches so far?
  9. Who’s in so far? Is the following correct? 57- Lee - Lilledahl 61- Vito - Forrest 65- McKenna 70- Yianni 74- MM 79- Wick 86- Valencia (Brooks out?) 92- Hidlay 97- ?? 125- Hendrickson
  10. I thought Cinnabons was firm in his prediction that Spencer was the Hawks’ next HC
  11. Could be. But once Iowa opens up a search for an head coach, it would be wise for them to gauge interest from the best coaches—even those who are not Hawks.
  12. History tells me that winners innovate
  13. Money, facilities, recruiting (in the Midwest versus South-ish)
  14. DT seems to be the hottest young coach around. I don’t think anyone can doubt his technical ability, and from the outside it appears that he’s a great recruiter (so far at least). He’s only one year in, and lots of things can happen, but he’s off to a great start. Assuming DT keeps doing well — and with Iowa so invested in wrestling — would Iowa go after DT once Brands steps down? Like other top programs, Iowa understands going outside of their program to recruit athletes. But would they go outside their program to recruit a coach?
  15. I’m specifically curious about D1 to UFC, so that’s why my question was phrased the way it was.
