I watched the press conference on flo. Varner said it tounge in cheek. He was giggling after he said it. Not a big deal. I agree that Jake has done some dumb things but this is not one of them. He had just won a national title and was making a small joke. Give the guy a break.
No. 1 Hawkeyes, No. 2 Cyclones headline field at National Duals | TheMat.com - USA Wrestling
This article from themat says that Slaton is not wrestling at National Duals.
I sure hope that he continues to search if they havnt found him by then. Pritzlaff and Frayer can more than handle the wrestling duties. My prayers are with the Davis family.
I understand that. He's my favorite Hawk and I don't understand why he's having problems this year either. Hope he can get it figured out and I have a feeling he will. Wouldnt want to wrestle him when he does.
I wouldnt call him disapointing at this point. He's not been the same wrestler as he's been in the past but certainly not disapointing. There's got to be something going on with him. He has been getting ridden this tournament and he never gets ridden...Ever!
