Wrestling TRI-MEET (Minny, Purdue, Rutgers) MATCH THREAD

[Lex Knapp]

Sparks rides out Donner to keep a 4-1 lead.

Sparks will start the third period on bottom. He quickly reverses Donner to make it 6-1

 

[Lex Knapp]

Donner cut loose to make it 6-2

 

[MS-RU]

Getting taken down with 10 seconds left on basically just a spear double just can not happen

Donner is a great teammate and guy in the room but in absolutely no way belongs in a B1G lineup unfortunately. He's spent way too much time in the lineup but that's mostly the fault of the coaching staff.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Sparks has a serious motor. He is back in on another takedown, going up 8-2, with a RT point coming

 

[koleszar]

IMO it is all about who you recruit. We have missed out on some real hammers and they are kicking butt at other schools. We have also brought in one or two "hammers" that have not lived up to their rankings. Not sure is that because of coaching but I doubt it. One thing that is obvious, RU has missed big time on having 2 NC'c and one of the best home atmospheres in the country and building on that. We saw last year less attendance and I hate to admit it , if we keep losing dual meets to to the lower end B1G schools we will see less and less crowds out at our matches.
Princeton has passed us during this time also. I hate say it but if Princeton now offers a kid a place to wrestle for them and to get a PU degree after wrestling , who cares about crowd size.

We heard the excuses last year but it is getting a little louder.

You went from selling crowd size as an attribute to who cares about crowd size in one post.

 

[MS-RU]

Shocking, the usual suspects gave away 10 points in two matches.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Sparks cuts Donner, Donner gets hit for a second stall, then Sparks takes him down with 10 seconds left in the third period. That, with the RT point gives Sparks a 12-3 major decision.

Rutgers now trails Minnesota 13-10. Jackson Turley now out against Jake Allar

Please do not use my spelling as a correct example.

it's not your spelling.....there are numerous times i have seen both spellings , and pronunciations.....i guess i'll have to go to the gophers team page......i assumed all along it was stevenson......i will get back to ya with the results lol

 

[koleszar]

That was a pin what the ****. This is unbelievable how bad these refs are. It's shoulder touch, pin that's it.

 

[tfio]

Kid was flat...nice work ref

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley throws Allar to his back quickly into the first period. No idea how a fall wasn't called. Regardless, Turley leads 6-0.

 

[SCNJ]

I thought Turley had him stuck but the ref was on the completely wrong side

 

[RC1978]

You went from selling crowd size as an attribute to who cares about crowd size in one post.

That's because we HAD great crowds 2 years ago , slipped a bit last year and no doubt will slip again next year.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Allar escapes to make it 6-1

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley with another takedown, going up 8-1

 

[SCNJ]

Alright 174 should be Turley’s permanently. This kid is strong as hell.

 

[MS-RU]

Once again the terrible officials weren't in position for an RU pin nor do they call stalls on Minnesota

 

[koleszar]

OK, if Goodale doesn't care about wrestle off's then I shouldn't see Grello ever again.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley keeps Allar down to finish the first period. Very good period for Turley, as he leads 8-1.

Allar chooses defense to start the second

 

[Clearscreen5]

Seriously, TUrley pinned that kid. WTF.

 

[SCNJ]

Oh my god the replay shows Turley had him pinned twice

 

[koleszar]

Such travesty carried by these refs. They should be ashamed of themselves for stealing a pin from a kid.

 

[ScottRU93]

These refs have literally ****** us in the *** today.

 

[tfio]

If Turley has a good gas tank, hes gunna be dangerous going forward

 

[nikoru09]

it's gable steveson........i heard stevenson being used many times.......case is now closed
turley was robbed of a fall................refs suck

 

[Lex Knapp]

I hate the touching the floor rule so much

 

[SCNJ]

Dude where has this kid been? Jesus Christ this has been a show

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley gets a cradle, securing four near fall points. He leads 12-1 with just over a minute remaining in the second period

 

[koleszar]

Turley's a beast what the hell has Goodale been watching in practice? This kids ranked 16th and is destroying him.

 

[JudgeSmails56]

How was that not a pin? Absurd

 

[SCNJ]

I hate the touching the floor rule so much

The fact that the NCAA doesn’t have the mats extended is mindblowing. Why would you have a sport that can be pretty violent had a hard surface literally two feet from the circle

 

[Clearscreen5]

This is the #16 kid in the country Turley is dismantling. Ever see Grello score points like this??

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley up 16-2 on the No. 13 kid in the country, heading into the third period.

Turley chooses defense

 

[MS-RU]

Turely has been on fire recently, he 100% needs to be starter going forward.

If Goody goes back to Grello, he needs his head examined and should lose his job

 

[SCNJ]

Turley's a beast what the hell has Goodale been watching in practice? This kids ranked 16th and is destroying him.

This is a new Turley. He didn’t look anything like this last year or in exhibitions. Moments sure, but this has been a clinic

 

[MS-RU]

Turley was incredible and gets the TF!!

 

[Freddy Stubbs]

When was the last time Grello earned a Tech fall?

 

[Lex Knapp]

Turley escapes getting a HUGE tech fall win over Allar.

Rutgers now leads 15-13 heading into 184-lbs.

Another big match here for John Poznanski, as he takes on Owen Webster

 

[bigmatt718]

I WILL start questioning Goodale if he puts in these underachieving vets over these talented young bucks.

 

[Clearscreen5]

When was the last time Grello earned a Tech fall?

No idea but I doubt it was against a kid ranked as high as #16
