Incredibly low effort bait, this is beneath even your normal standards, Jimmy.

Im obviously not him, but am a Buckeye fan, and I see us as solidly being favorites at 141 and 285, and thats it. Penn State is solid favorites at 149, 165, 174, 184 (i like Fishback but if he can't finish on McEnelly, I have a hard time seeing him finish on Welsh, who is as stingy as they come), and 197, with 125, 133, and 157 being the toss ups. Is there a scenario where Lilledahl, Blaze, and Duke all win? I don't think that is unrealistic.

In all fairness, Fix had plenty of detractors and age was a part of that.

Man, those podium spots at 157 are going to be hard earned.

Millard is good, I was impressed that Cannon was able to finish that match off while clearly hurt. Millard is going to beat a lot of really good guys.

Stiles seems to get mouthy

I feel like he is the most prepared to run a program and is a terrific head coach candidate, probably the safest one out there at this point.

Duke vs Cannon is such a fire matchup. Two young guys wrestling with a ton of confidence and creative offense, can't wait to see it.

I feel like we are due for a really high level footsweep enthusiast, hoping this stays a thing

Youre right, I think better wording would have been to staple it to the mat to keep him from re-locking on the leg.

I would think he is using that grip to return the controlled arm to the mat, giving him just one arm to sprawl out of, but I also suck at all of this, so don't listen to me.

I'm curious to see video of this, but he's basically locking up a kimura (same submission that DeSantis so famously illegally used on Micic). I use this as a single leg defense in jiu jitsu (where this is a weapon itself), but have not seen it a lot in wrestling. Mark Schultz famously broke the Turkish wrestlers arm with one of these in the 1984 Olympics, but this may be the first time I have seen it used for just the leverage of the grip as opposed to eventually extending the arm against the shoulder. Is he then using it to get the foot back to the mat?

San Diego is the real bjj hotbed in California.

Couldn't be a more slam dunk hire, but I can't imagine him making the jump unless the school is ready to seriously support the program.

Brock Hardy isn't on Caliendo's level?

Tan Tom

"Dad, what was Ohio State's Tan Era like?"

Kind of cynical to count Kerkvliet against them in quantifying development.

I have not met many people of either gender that live for sewing circle gossip as much as Minnow.

I wasn't planning on being tied to rooting for a Cowboy for the next x number of years, but here we are.

Incredible figure of speech, I use that one on my wife regularly

That's not Mikey bouncing on his head, thats a guy named Andris Brunovskis, who is a pretty high level black belt. That clip is at least 10 years old. Mikey is fantastic, bjj just has different strategies. Here he is trying to bait his opponent i to grabbing a single so he can roll under and attack leg locks.

And Beric Jordan? I believe he had a respectable class ranking.

The Heffernan brothers and Joe McFarland went to the same elementary school, thats a fun one to me. Two future Big 10 coaches and the future head coach of St. Eds.

Hey, hey, we Hiram Terriers produced a Preaident.
