  1. Dake does speak a lot about Gabe Dean being his guy in the room, which is wild because he was 184 lbs. So, I think he had adequate competition, just not something he can replicate on the mat since Dean was so much bigger. I do agree that Dake needs to be near the top, he's the only one to actually do hit his true freshman through actual senior years (no Covid year, no redshirts).
  2. I forgot about Keckeisen, you're right there. Myles Amine never won a title. Who else did Brooks beat on the way that has a title? Logan Stieber took out: Tony Ramos, Kendrick Maple, Jordan Oliver, Zain Retherford...
  3. True, but everyone is dropping Logan down the list due to astericks such as his final with JO, who was an all-time great. Also because he lost to Zain, another all-time great when he had the flu. The best person Brooks ever faced in college was Trent Hidlay, who got 4th place behind Kaleb Romero just last year. Just throwing more asterisks in since they seem to be valid in this argument.
  4. Covid year and Zahid likes the booger sugar.
  5. I agree with what you're saying, but Shane Griffith was also held together by tape the entire season. We're lucky his limbs didn't fall off.
  6. Aaron Brooks was certainly dominant, but he definitely benefited in not having to face Zahid in the NCAA finals his actual freshman year. He'd likely be a 3 timer if that were the case.
  7. I'm wondering the same. I like him and his style, and will always root for him, but he seems to have fallen into the category of the less-than-intelligent mouth breathers who think they're smart due to their group of yes men around them.
  8. Really solid comparison. I'm not in tune with the happenings at Iowa, but the fact that all of the golden boys of the program (Brent Metcalf, (maybe) Derek St. John, Tony Ramos, Gilman) that seemed to embody their "Iowa style" the most, all left on bad terms, seems telling to me.
  9. Yeah, I would agree Bastida. I was rooting for him to stir things up as well. He flamed out once he lost to Davison. The finger sucks for sure, but I don't see that as a reason to go from potential champ to not even placing. Snap it in place and tape it up.
  10. I hope they're able to get Bouzakis to reach his potential. People forget he has beaten Jesse Mendez multiple times in freestyle. I think he needs to lay off the energy drinks, candy, and become more disciplined. As far as the others, hoping OSU can get something out of their St. Eds guys (Paddy, Hepner, Geog). Could become a great pipeline but for whatever reason they underperformed. Lance Palmer was the first and only truly successful (All-American) Eds to Ohio State dude iirc.
  11. That's a great point lmao. But he had to have thought he was going to OT. Why else would he not try to end the period?
  12. Yeah, idk if he's doing it for clicks or is serious. Dumb takes to be honest. Some people like real takes from the announcers over PC bs
  13. With Brock Hardy? I was wondering why he was smiling
  14. He's currently saying him and Carter would like to fight JB.
  15. Everyone complains about it. I forced a few people to watch it with me, people that are catholic like me, and they immediately were like wtf is with all the religious bs talk? Weird interviews. Is this a cult? Etc. IT IS WEIRD AND DOES NOT DRIVE VIEWERSHIP
  16. Aaron Brooks finishing with a 35 match win streak. I expected it to be a lot higher than that.
  17. Is he reading tweet while commentating? Lol wtf
  18. I mean, Carter and Bo would do the same thing (target the leg). Big whoop, it's called reality. Not everyone is trying to be the next prophet, he's speaking facts
  19. Is this a joke by Bo Nickal or is he just stupid?
  20. People are hyping this up but no chance Hidlay wins this.
  21. I don't really see Carr gassing out in the shorter match
  22. Let's hope he doesn't take a helicopter to the Olympics
  23. You guys don't let that excuse fly when Zain beat Logan when he was sick with the flu
  24. Healthy CStar barely won when he was healthy
