We should chat sometime outside of this thread. I'm being a douche and gunking it up with stuff most people on here don't care about. Apologies to the others.
Championship Thread

Nothing like college sophomore age high school seniors defying the odds, jumping to college early, and then beating guys younger than them. Truly inspring stuff.
Very brief derailment sharing some information I found interesting. You’re good in my book
We could of had those guys plus Basset and Miller…ugh
How old is Jax? 19 or 20? Also, how old is Bassett?
He’s 19 years old. He is the normal age for a college freshman
The cupboard is only getting more empty.
Taylor is on his way. At least tonight took some of the air of invincibility out of PSU . Look, they can be beaten on an individual basis. Team, no, not yet.

Just say what you want to say. Don’t use any of this back door ****. **** or get off the pot, otherwise why say it?
There is no such thing. Ask spencer i never thought he would be beat.
Taylor has to be pretty happy with where the program is in year two.
Did anyone have a more disappointing tourney than Ohio State? Like what were the betting odds they’d have zero champs coming out of the big ten championship?
They’re both 19. Bassett is 2 or 3 months older.
Yeah, you should have kept your word on that.
BTW. I'm not of those. You can privately message me on that if you think otherwise.
I know its a wrestling board, but if you get a chance to read it, White Line Fever is amazing. Dude was pure insanity.
125 was much more exciting when Lord Spencer was getting decked and glasses were being crushed. I agree.
Most do turn 19 during their freshman year so that's not really the problem now that he is a freshman in the correct cycle. It's the "he jumped from high school early" storyline that is ridiculous. He isn't some 15 year old phenom graduating early to go to Harvard (or MIT like one of my old classmates actually did). No he's a kid that was older and gamed the system a bit, and then graduated a half a year after he already should've graduated like a normal student.
They say he was in HS 3 months ago, which is accurate. I understand how many who do not know any better will think he's 17-18, but give it a rest already.
Also, you said he's college sophomore age, which is not very accurate.
He was held back a year that is accurate so he is not your typical high school senior
Another reason to like Shane Sparks. The dude just loves wrestling and somehow gets these 2 rivals together for an awesome pic. Well that's just awesome!
Stall ride!
They need to start calling stalking on top.
If you aren't trying to turn it's stalling
Because Mesenbrink is a sociopath. Sorry, shower fan.
Love Shane Sparks. I know he gets on some people's nerves but the guy just exudes positivity and love for wrestling. His admiration of these guys is genuine.
My son was never held back, and wrestled alot of these kids in age level stuff since they were super young. He has a September birthday, and just finished his freshman season as a 19 year old. You are correct. Hell, he started wrestling Bo when they were 8u lol.
I must say - it does not seem to be an act with Sparks. I think the guy genuinely loves broadcasting wrestling. Kessinich seems like he’d rather be calling the NCAA croquet super-regional or something.
5th straight team title for the good guys, 4 individual champs and the the third straight year they break the scoring record. Also they are losing one wrestler. So stay tuned for next year. WE ARE PENN ST. Ps 89 points out of first place peaking!
While I agree that Jax is only 1 year behind what would be his 'normal' grade...there are lots of people who spend their entire sophmore year of college being 19 (& only 19...turning 20 in the summer)
Edit to say that Jax is now what would be his 'normal' time in school...a freshman in college...which is still remarkable what he did this season
Kick rocks, ****
You would have a point if his birthday was in the Summer, but it's in the Fall. So he's the normal age of a college freshman. He will turn 20 next Fall, because that's how birthdays work, right around the start of his second collegiate wrestling season.
Crazy how vega and forest could both overtake cael as the greatest college wrestlers ever
All 10 of their wrestlers ended the year with a loss. That is crazy. The definition of not peaking.

Something tells me Vega won't be winning 4 titles with the lack of offense and the solely counter-wrestle/cradle hunt style. Someone is bound to figure that out.
Meet me in the shower and we can discuss. Just promise not to fling the poo again.
Along with IMar.
And you're a total ***** and that's all there is to it. Dumbass.
