    Jr National Dual Results - Incoming Freshmen

    that is an interesting win for meyer. burak and brooks have both been more heavily touted than meyer. obviously its freestyle, but it reminds me of the hype around nate moore and mcd is just another name on the recruiting class. or even nick moore's hype then Kelley beats a few times in the...

    Scott to wrestle tonight

    I think you're right regarding haze. I think hes our third best option at the weight. cejudo is the only American that we could have sent over that is nothing but a freestylin freestyler, every other guy going over freestyle was an after thought. time will tell on buroughs, maybe they've seen...

    Morningstar back as Iowa asst coach

    I think i have to like the hire. brands and co have the ability to get any coach they want. obviously m* wasn't an exciting wrestler to watch but if he was hand picked to replace zadick it has to be for a reason, he must be a heck of a coach.

    the real difference between mj and lebron

    the difference for me between them is that the nba was so different in my childhood, and mj was the reason I watched. the nba in my childhood the players 'looked and seemed' like good guys and I grew a fan of the players through the ncaa tournament. then after mj the nba turned into a dirty...

    Jake Ballweg done wrestling?

    the poster on the other site who posted gg was weighing around 180 this summer has good information usually. I really like the idea of gg at 174 if evans were able to maintain 165 or be a healthy strong 184. I know ncaas didn't pan out well but I am a big evans fan. about ballweg, the other...

    Roth was a pretty good hs wrestler himself. I'd still take Mocco though.

    David Taylor wins HODGE..pffff

    Eyeball test. Taylor is unlike any other NCAA wrestler I've seen except for Cael. The freestyle last month is really interesting. Dake and Howe really showed that are on pace for much greater international success than Taylor and for me it definitely marks down what I thought of his ability.

    Number one recruiting class...

    "...That’s filling 30-40% of the toughest line-up to crack in America with four-year starters in a single class. One heck of a recruiting job." Quite the quote. I hope they are right and the Brands really did bring in 4 4-year starters.

    As good as Howe looked, it's his to lose I think.

    State Duals

    no one likes the current format, but the old format wasn't any good either. and in the iahsaa defense, attendance proved it. the state tournament ending the season is great. make the petition to move sectionals and districts up one week and put state duals one week before the state tournament.

    State Duals

    I really wish there was a way get the State Duals moved up to a January date. But there's not so I don't mind the way it is now. I hated the duals the week after. It was brutal going to practice and making weight for state duals. If some coaches choose to sit guys out for it before the...

    Hey Pin2win

    Question, in 8th grade wrestling and basketball had split seasons so you could do both. Not bragging here, but I was by far the best backup player on the D team my only season of basketball. Does that qualify me to post about basketball? Also, AFHawk, I know life without wrestling is going...

    Olympic trials!!

    trackwrestling is great. maybe casual fans don't use it or know about it. not only are the brackets updated match by match but the dashboard keeps updated score by score.

    Lunatic Fringe

    7 wins isn't the ceiling. i'd say its a realistic prediction (most years with our talent and recruiting base.) I love kf bc he has rarely finishes below it and has surpassed it enough to let me believe that the ceiling on any year can be a bcs bowl. that doesn't mean though that I can...

    Iowa City High Coach Brad Smith to retire

    Iowa city has enough good wrestlers for two great programs. Kennedy will be filling their head coaching job soon too I hear. the gazette said that Dennis Hynek wants it back. he had a perrenial top ten calibur program when he was at the helm. the mvc conference used to be the best wrestling...
