This makes more sense. I can get behind this kind of argument.

So, your argument is 8lbs turns an absolute monster rider into a guy that can’t ride at all? You really want to go with that?
Corby provides 100x the info on here than any of you dickheads. Your like one of the thousands of flies on a pile of ****. Nothing more
How much is Corby paying you, huntinghawk? I'll double it if you switch sides. We could use a scrapper on our team.
I keep getting NCAA half off ticket emails. They haven’t sold it out this year.
What no one knows is whether a coach with better people skills might have been able to salvage the situation without everyone going to Defcon 5, regardless of whether the AD ultimately backed TnT in the end. We all have our opinions.And the AD backed the staff on both situations and she was involved. But all the people who have no clue about either situation are the ones who are right.
Maybe more to do with everyone knows the outcome. Maybe after OSU adds their 3 more stars next year it will be at least slightly interesting. Perhaps inn2 years will have more interest.
VHS/Corby started a 3rd account?
What are you his boyfriend lol
I don't care which side Corby is on. It's more the part about he at least provides some Iowa wrestling related info. The dickhead club do nothing but *****. Nobody would know or care if Nashville or I left. Losing guys like chief and gobblin stinks for many of us. Yes chief posted recently, but he isn't a regular poster any more thanks to the dickheads. Might as well run Corby off as well.
^^^^^^

I know that coaches are suppose to coach so I get that.
I just would like someone to ask the wrestlers are you being coached to circle and tigh up and defend for 6 min and then take 1 I say again 1 shot. I'm just saying maybe the lack of offense is not all on the staff.
Peterson same as he was at rut
Drake is drake
Bailey same as little rock with exception of top game
Block really his first year attack rate seems ok
Williams/VV same as LR/OKST
Mikey just fine same as he has been
PK is iowa grit same as he has been
Angelo first year good def needs higher attack rate just like H.S.
Gabe same as H.S. needs to fine take down
Kueter have no clue lost his aggression no shots no cradle from opponents shot can't get off bottom.
So I just do t think coaches are saying stop doing g what you do well. Hey but maybe just don't think it's all that.

Fair enough. Was just joshing with you. Speaking for myself, I'm not looking to run anyone off. Respectful disagreement is the essence of a fun board. Chief in particular was a quality poster and hopefully he returns. I can also understand someone opting to sit out the now seemingly endless debate about the future of the coaching staff, especially if you have a relationship with the principals involved.
Their whole religious schtick is contrived... usable to them as they see fit.
You can blame the NCAA for a lot of this. Tickets were very difficult to get when lower bowl seats, not in the middle, were allocated to colleges. It killed the enthusiasm of the tournament.
Where are your offers coming from?
How many Hawk fans did you used to see in Stillwater prior to this year?
Not buying this. Also not saying we will get new assistants. But as a hypothetical, let's say Nolf and Cassar (or pick another solid younger HW name) came in as our new assistants, with Nolf told he's new HC in 2 years. Even if Tom gave them no flexibility to change training (I don't buy that either), you can't tell me their mere presence wouldn't help recruiting alot. With big new names as assistants, that alone would move the recruiting needle alot.

Some of you guys would be fired as a detective on day 1. Hell we aren't even the same color
We know you typed this while wearing watching gay porn
Exactly these
s don't know anything and are jealous that I do . Can't imagine being a grown man and thinking about another grown man constantly these people have issues. If they ever got married they hate life and the dog probably won't even go by them. Some people just suck at life we can't help them allNobody made anything up. Im sorry facts get in the way of your Brands butt kissing. You really want to argue rhe attendance of wrestling vs football and both men's and women's basketball this this year?

Well last year wrestling sold out as well but 8k tickets were on average. So yes "sellout" isn't the fact you think it is
Anyone see the HWC newsletter?
This is how far we have fallen.
It says we are lazer focused on winning razor thin margins.
Think about that for a minute.Hell it might even be true unfortunately,but you are going to brag about it in a newsletter to some of your most loyal fans?
If I was an opposing coach and I saw this I would make a copy and show recruits and parents if they were considering Iowa.
Hard to even believe

You don’t think an average of 6,000 scanned tickets for an Iowa wrestling match in the 15,000 seat Carver Hawkeye venue is an issue?
Ticket prices didn’t go up that much.
So yes, up until that very change, it was a rule violation. So if you agree not to bend the rules, no. You’re not going to do those things.
I think ticket prices have almost tripled in the last 3-4years
Gets old when the facts get twisted to fit the narrative. Im of the belief some changes need made as the product on the mat has gotten stale. Like maybe a new assistant or 2 to start. But the negativity on here is suffocating and has driven away a lot of good posters. I originally came here as it was a good place to get some inside info, now it’s just a place with no inside info and bunch of loud complainers.Enough with the facts
A quick review of the top tiered wrestling program season ticket costs this season :
Iowa $175
An OSU $183
PSU $245
Okla state $300
Iowa is still significantly cheaper than other programs but doesn’t sell out and the tickets that are sold don’t come to the matches. Keep reaching.

I get emails from the NCAA directly as I bought tickets before. Previous years Iowa fans traveled way better. It was absolutely dismal this year.
Yes either that or coaching, those are the only 2 variables that changed from prior years. I'm giving the staff the benefit of the doubt that they didn't coach riding out of him.
You know bumping from 133 to 141 isn't just about a random "8 lbs". Trying to pretend otherwise is you knowing you're wrong on this one.
