And this is the convenient excuse you and Franklin can use year after year that he doesn’t win the big game. The reality is Franklin has been at PSU 10 years which is now a legitimate sample size. 3-17 against top 10 teams and 4-16 vs OSU and Michigan. Not good. I’ll give Franklin credit...
Could Penn State’s lineup possibly look like this next year:
125 - Lilledahl
133 - Nagao or Davis (Davis has a redshirt available)
141 - Bartlett
149 - Kasak
157 - Van Ness
165 - Mesenbrink
174 - Haines
184 - Barr
197 - Starocci
285 - Kerk
I agree. When you look at the numbers, Parker is right there with Brooks. But when you look at their head to head, Brooks has won every time and Brooks went to another level this year.
Can someone please explain Barrett’s back points. He turn the kid for a 1 count and then turns him for a clear 3 count and the ref gives him 2 back points. Shouldn’t be have received 3 back points?
Nagao looked sick or struggled with the weight cut because he looked completely overpowered. I will say the kid he wrestled was as long and lanky of 133 pounder I’ve ever seen. His reach looked like 197 pounder.
Beau always wrestles close matches. Dude has so much talent and won’t let it fly...
I thought he wrestled better at the Big Ten tournament taking 3rd. Thought he had turned the corner. Sometimes that isn’t match in a tournament after weighing in can be a problem.
