    A look at the preseason Top 10 at InterMat

    Fair points. I'd like to see Gabe work on the top position this year. He is ultra strong, and with good technique could ride well. The weight and length disparity last year made it near impossible. With his defense and some great riding, a touch of his quickness for offense........

    A look at the preseason Top 10 at InterMat

    Yes, but there were serious issues with 3 of the guys from last years team, who will be wrestling this year. Two could be finalist this year, not sure about the third The whole point is pre-season rankings for us this year don't mean much, at least to me. Contrast this with the Covid year...

    A look at the preseason Top 10 at InterMat

    I like the work you do. However, this years pre-season rankings don't mean much for Iowa because 1) We had a number of guys wrestling injured last year 2) We have a couple transfers who either did not wrestle or wrestled a different weight 3) We have 2 year men taking over who did not...

    I'm trying to remember how many times you've blathered this out. Impossible to count. Be creative Stud. Knowing Tom, but not being there, I'm sure he was kidding.

    Yes we are. I am firmly against the Iran "War". Our boy got snookered into it. However, if the US were to conduct the war as Russia does against the Ukraine, there would be a quick end. We have only deployed air power vs military targets. If we targeted energy, transportation...

    Why should Russia have a "reasonable" sphere of influence over sovereign countries who seek independence? As you say, perhaps Russia seeks this, but no one else does

    Recruiting….

    You are delusional. If the US were to fight a total war in any of those places, the end would be quick. Russia most certainly is and they are 4.5 years into it, hopelessly bogged down while churning thru "soldiers", material and getting their hat handed to them on the homefront.

    Recruiting….

    Think back As the war started, Russian columns were wiped out. No real aid flowed for a year. Yes, Ukraine has received much help since then, but they suffer today as Europe and the US have lost interest and the will to provide what Ukraine needs. If the US wanted to take Canada or...

    Thanks for the enlightenment. Why would those European countries NOT want to create an organization to DEFEND themselves from Russia? Using the same logic, why is there no North American (or any in the World) organization to defend against the US. Are you so obtuse to not realize what...

    False Putin = Russia. He has stated that the collapse of the USSR was a disaster. He wants to put the "band" back together. It has nothing to do with defense of Russia. It has everything to do with control and exploitation of those former USSR countries. Any blather out of Russia in...

    We'll have to agree to disagree on Russia. The US is walking a tight line with China. We need Rare Earths and Chips, they need Chips and Oil. Yes, placate and work together as best we can, but make no mistake what their objective is......to be #1 Power in the World. That said, their window...

    No VBaby No. United Nations part 2 if Russia is in NATO. NATO is already weak. You'd make them completely ineffective with Russian influence. Just who is trying to take over Russian territory or even thinks of it? Russia had, has and will continue to have imperialistic ambitions and...
