  1. He would absolutely melt Shapiro. Shapiro gasses badly against guys not known for pace. Mesenbrink would have him falling over by the end of the 2nd. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Keep in mind, 7 weeks ago this guy beat Pletcher, Kolodzik and McKenna on the same day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I must admit I had you in mind when crafting the headline, yes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. For better or worse, I think that if Carr and KOT split, the seeding committee, via coaches ranking, will still have them 1 and 2. KOT’s body of work (including a win over him at dual or B12s) and a Carr win KOT should earn them both a bit of deference over the field. MM simply won’t have resume to match that. Going undefeated at 165 in the B1G isn’t the same as Carr going whatever and 2, with a loss to KOT (theoretical), a win (theoretical) and Ramirez loss. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I’m suggesting that Bekzod likes to compete. Even when he’s not in the best shape. Thus, his various appearances at 79 and 86kg over the years. Anyone who takes a medal at Yarygin is in great shape. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Brooks, Starocci and Kerk all wrestled and soundly beat the #2 guys in the country. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. It'll be interesting to see what, if anything, Caliendo and Hamiti can do to slow Mesenbrink. Hamiti presents a different set of threats than most guys Mesenbrink has faced, namely, he's super long and might be able to put a ride on Mesenbrink. Caliendo will likely try to go a very different route, get his hands on him and bully him. Catch any bad shots in a front head and burn time. Not sure that will work.
  8. I think it’s the weight class where kids are most impacted by the cut. I hate to diminish their skills but sometimes it looks like it’s basically about who ate one less donut that week and feels better off the scale. But they are so unpredictable that the randomness has to come from somewhere. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Might as well get this one fired up. My predictions: 125: PSU 4-0 133: PSU 7-0 141: tOSU 7-3 149: tOSU 7-6 157: PSU 10-6 165: PSU 14-6 174: PSU 18-6 184: PSU: 21-6 197: PSU 25-6 285: PSU 29-6 I could actually see Rogotzke beating Truax. And, Nagao is sick, and could easily give up a big move to Bouzakis if he’s not on. I could also see Penn State blanking Ohio State if Bartlett’s counter game is solid, and D’Emilio isn’t great.

  10. The problem is this: You can’t kill an idea. You can kill them at 100 to 1, but that might just help them recruit. Hell, not even “might”, it does. One thing that might actually be effective is destroying the Iranian navy, in port. And then completely blockade their illicit oil sales, and destroy their oil terminals. Pain.

  11. Bekzod likes to wrestle, even when he’s fat. Just took bronze at Yarygin today, at 74kg, by the way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Unfortunately, despite this deal being a cash cow of gigantic proportions, it’s not going to result in any new sports being added at those schools, IMO. Now, would they have a hard time recruiting at USC? Hell no. They’d have plenty of kids wanting to go there. But most Olympic sports just aren’t worth it for most schools. My dad is a Penn State grad and is clamoring for an excuse for my parents to go to SoCal, catch a game and stay at my aunt and uncle’s house. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Most important match of the day is happening right now. Evans vs Kasak. 2:00 in, no score. End of the 1st, 3-1 Kasak, 23s RT. Escape Kasak, 4-1. End of 2nd. Escape Evans. Kasak leads, 4-2, 24s RT. Kasak wins 4-2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Might have another one here in 7 minutes or so… Yep. High schooler Jax Forrest takes out #2 Luke Stannich. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Playing with his food. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Evans with the TF. Will see 2 seed Munch, Lehigh starter, in quarters. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Evans with a round of 32 pin and now up 14-1 in the second in R16. Kasak with a first round bye (lame) and a first period pin in R16. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Peddling*. Not sure why my phone autocorrected to the wrong word. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Ah yes. Travis in Flint. Quite the authority. Do you realize how dumb you sound? Now, if I see an actual motion filed by an actual attorney, in an actual court? That would mean something. Right now you’re just pedaling bullshit. Also, there are multiple attorneys representing Carroll. Which one was it, Travis in Flint? Notice how he doesn’t name anyone? He just throws around a rumor with no basis, so he can’t be fact checked. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Twitter, of course. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  21. Looks like both Kasak and Evans will be missing the dual tomorrow vs Maryland. They’re heading to the Mat Town II Open to get some matches. I imagine we might see this happen again next weekend. tOSU on Friday and an open on Saturday or Sunday. Not sure who will go at 149. Maybe Pierce or Heard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Penn State has one of the largest alumni populations in the country. It’s not like they all live in State College and are driving to Maryland. Plenty of them are local to the area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. No dual with a forfeit is dual of the year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Penn State fan base travels well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. I could also see Carter breaking Kennedy in half with a bow and arrow, walking up to the Iowa bench and drawing his hand across his throat. Team points be damned. He loves playing the villain. The dude walks out to the theme song from Halloween. Not kidding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
