    Pardon me. I should have clarified. He believes that peaking is a mindset. And that you should be better every week. As opposed to the planning of structured training to deliver a physically ready and optimized athlete for the most important period of their college season, the NCAA tournament. Structured training which should, if done correct, result in training overload and then recovery periods. Making it, quite literally, impossible for you to be better every week.

    Tyler Kasak (wearing Levi Haines' singlet) beat Vince Cornella, the #7 seed from NCAAs, to advance to the U20 65kg finals. DT was his corner man. I anticipate a RS and then a log jam at 133-141-149 for Penn State with three AAs at those weights in Nagao, BB and SVN, who have three, two and three years of eligibility left, respectively. He could take both an OLY and a regular RS, if he wanted to, to let Bartlett graduate and the weight open up.

    The 2kg spreads from 55 to 57 to 59kg have always bothered me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Periodized training at PSU vs a constant, brutal grind at Iowa. Tom Brands is on record saying he doesn’t believe in peaking, with college athletes. Which is one of the craziest things I’ve heard from a Brands. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    He had the best individual performance of NCAAs, IMO. Didn’t rack up massive bonus but his wins over Hidlay and Keckeisen should have raised eyebrows. Neither came anywhere close to scoring on him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Zahid’s body composition doesn’t look great. The weight he’s put on to grow into 86kg doesn’t appear to be all muscle. When you combine that with an already suspect gas tank, that’s not a good situation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Zahid looks like he’s in worse shape than last year when he got smashed by DT. Which takes some doing. Also not a good game plan when going up against a guy who was chosen by DT to replicate Yazdani. Brutal underhook and PACE. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How is Zahid not hit multiple times for passivity? Great win for Brooks. Zahid can’t wrestle more than 3 minutes against someone who actually wrestled hard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cenzo has insane hips. Only other guy who wouldn’t give that up is Dake. Crazy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don’t think CC was too concerned. Nolf looked like he was getting in mat time last night. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If Starocci has to have surgery, now is the time to do it. He had no movement at all after that. Really hope he’s not seriously injured. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’m guessing he’s still injured. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Here's a good reason why kids want to transfer to Penn State: In the last ten seasons (since 2013) where an NCAA championship took place, Penn State had 19 #1 seeds. 15 of those #1 seeds won NCAAs. In the same time frame, Iowa had 8 #1 seeds. ONE of those wrestlers won an NCAA championship. Now, could Ira be handing out a bag of cash? Sure. But the difference in a) #1 seeds and b) performance by those #1 seeded wrestlers is absolutely staggering.

    Ah. I see we've gone full HR/GIA this morning with a PED reference. Well played.
