    PSU depth is ridiculous
  4. AZ_wrestling
    Not quite the same because you’re choosing the better of two options after the fact.

    If Haines goes undefeated this season, he’ll be the second best two-time champ Penn State’s had after Taylor. The fact that he didn’t take a redshirt year is a big deal to me, and he’ll be a four-time B1G champ. Only other Penn state guys to win four (I think) are Ruth and Taylor.

    Pretty sure if Jax wins then we win the team title. Impressive that we’re in this position considering Barr’s injury. On a different note, has the US ever won four golds at U23?
  7. AZ_wrestling
    Yup. For every young girl in a wrestling room hoping to become a world champion, there are probably 25+ boys. But it’s not just a factor of time. That imbalance in competition will remain indefinitely — some sports simply appeal to males more than females. Others, like soccer and swimming, have a more balanced appeal between the sexes. A gold medal in women’s FS is simply not comparable to one in men’s.

    Absolutely incredible that Snyder is a 10x world/oly medalist and not even 30 yet.
  9. AZ_wrestling
    Her background before mma was boxing.
  10. AZ_wrestling
    No. Kickboxer/boxer and mma fighter.

  12. AZ_wrestling
    Nah. Four champs and nine AAs.
  13. AZ_wrestling
    This thread aged well.

    If Barr is healthy Penn St. will likely advance all ten. Has Cael done that before?

    It’ll be Gable after Saturday. Right now, Retherford edges it out for me by wrestling as true freshman and going undefeated in 3 straight seasons.

    Burroughs Smith Bruce Snyder Taylor or Dake It’s hard to take seriously anyone who doesn’t have Snyder on their list. The guy has made 10 world/Olympic teams while winning 9 medals including four golds and three silvers. Kemp and Shultz aren’t in the same category of success.
  17. AZ_wrestling
    I would honestly rank a few 3xers ahead of him, and probably every current 4xer.
  18. AZ_wrestling
    Imar was a RS freshman but I think you’re right with Schlatter. Impressive memory.
  19. AZ_wrestling
    Has a true freshman won B10 and NCAAs before? Wondering if Lilledahl has a chance at history. I could be missing a few obvious examples but no one came to mind.
  20. AZ_wrestling
    I’m not a big greco fan — what’s the consensus on his all time status? Would another gold elevate him above Karelin in most people’s minds? Is he already at that level of accomplishment?
  21. AZ_wrestling
    Iowa and OkSt could combine rosters and still not beat Penn State in a dual this year. And honestly, I love it. Watching this level of dominance is as exciting to me as a competitive team race. And besides, the team race for #2 is still competitive!
  22. AZ_wrestling
    RS then he should go 165 and MM 174. Following year he moves up to 174.
  23. AZ_wrestling
    When’s the last time someone had a 100% bonus at the end of a regular season? I can’t remember anyone doing that in the last decade. The fact that not one but two wrestlers this year hit that mark tells me it’s a consequence of the 3 point take down (and maybe limited schedules too). Still incredibly impressive. What’s the highest bonus % after NCAAs in the wrestlestat era? Low 90s?
  24. AZ_wrestling
    Based on what? Not sure how you can make a case for Ramirez, Hall, Barraclough, and Caliendo being inferior p4p wrestlers to Kerk, Wyatt, Trumble, and Shultz, etc. Based on the size of the talent pool alone, HW is a considerably weaker division than the lighter weight classes.
  25. AZ_wrestling
    Is Ayala wrestling? Thought I read he’s injured. 125 Lilledahl dec Cruz 3-0 133? Ayala dec Davis (if he’s not injured?) 3-3 141 Bartlett dec Rhodes 6-3 149 SVN dec Parco 9-3 157 Kasak Dec Teemer 12-3 165 MM Dec Caliendo 15-3 174 Haines dec Kennedy 18-3 184 Starocci MD Arnold 22-3 197 Buchanon dec Barr 22-6 HWT Kerk dec Kueter 25-6
