Best of 3

I laughed at that too. I thought it was cool that he allowed ESPN to interview him during that match as I'm sure it's the last thing he wanted to be doing.

I realize there aren't any guarantees but this year Cael had 3 locks for champions - that's 30% of the weights - 2 of those guys are unbelievable talents. Iowa had no margin for error in this tourney and that's a tough spot to be in. We took less scorers to start with than the top 2 teams. We...

Exactly right pumpdog. Don't count out the Hawks yet. 6 guys alive on the championship side and 4 are favored with the other two winnable. 2 guys on the bottom side and those are winnable for the forseeable future as well. Let's see how today shakes out. Alot can happen in the next two days.

I like the idea of having a forum for those that donate as long as it stays on track with Hawkeye sports.

I'd follow Brands as a fan. Besides who would you hire that's a better teacher, coach, and motivator? Its time to embrace the competition is improving. It's good for the sport.

I agree I don't think you are too far off on your prediction. One note. You forgot to add major decision points to PSU's score. So you are predicting a tie if you add that point in for Molinaro. We are going to need to find another bonus point somewhere. I don't want to see another match go...

Sometimes question the don't care response. If you didn't care, then why did you read a post clearly marked Brandon Wegher and then go to the trouble to post that you don't care (as if that adds something). I don't read posts I don't care about simple as that. Apparently the discussion board...

Read the article about Nebraska. I think most on the board understand that they aren't currently running the spread. The article indicates that through a promotion of RB coach that they might be implementing a more up tempo style with some short quick passes. The OP is referring to that.

I don't know that I agree with this statement. Some wrestlers are only good in one area. There have been some VERY good wrestlers that were well rounded MMA fighters too though. I don't know about you but I would be scared to death to stand toe to toe with Brock Lesnar, Randy Couture, Matt...

It's ironic what a difference 3 days can make. :) It'd be interesting to go back and read some of the posts from last week now. At any rate, two solid commitments for Coach Fran.

Great Quote. That sent a chill down my spine and a little fire into my gut. :) Coach Brands in your living room saying stuff like that, I can't imagine how we lose ANY recruiting battles.

:-) Exactly.

Maybe that was a bad choice of words. The point I was trying to make is that he may get enough high quality recruits that the development required is minimal. AND I don't think you can go off any model developed before. It wouldn't surprise me to see him get a few highly ranked guys talked...

Really doubt it's true. Besides, they'd have to sit out a year because I'm sure PSU wouldn't release them to Iowa - (Andrew could redshirt) but that would mean that Dylan would lose a year of competition. I can't imagine he'd want that.

Cael coached his team to the Nat'l title. He deserves all the credit that any head coach would receive for doing that and I think most head coaches would probably say that their assistants helped out quite a bit in that feat. That said, the question remains on Cael - do wrestlers get better...

did molinaro win

This thing ain't over yet. PSU has dominated and we are 6 pts off the pace. A few upsets tomorrow go our way and a few dont go their way and we are back in this thing. Never count the Hawks out until it's mathematically impossible. We ain't even close to that point yet. Janssen had a nice...

I don't know if he'll be doing it or not, but you might follow Andy Hamilton. In the past, he has tweeted live from wrestling meets. I know it's saved me a few times that I'm not around the computer and/or TV.

PSU outwrestled us this weekend. They went 5 for 5 in the finals and got bonus pts in their last match of the day for the win. We can sit back and point to LOTS of scenarios where we could have picked up a point or two. Honestly, I think our guys wrestled very well all in all. AND if losing...
