    Real American Freestyle

    I will believe it when I see it. Then again I won't pay for it, or watch it if It was offered for free. Ben has hardly looked like his more normal self ultil the past month or so and that's a stretch. Maybe he walks out and only shakes hands, but my favorite Ben Askren matches are all in the...

    Did he really say that? Idiotic. I almost hate to watch to find out.

    It seems that the consensus is that Oklahoma State is the new rival…

    I think Cole is near his ceiling (low to mid AA) and Ross near his floor (Mid AA) that's why Cael wanted him so badly. Ross will be a finalist by March which gives Oky St at least 4 of them. We still have a cushion this coming year, but the year after it's getting dicey.

    '26 USA Senior World Team Trials, 5/14-15, thread

    Yeah 1996, alas this board was such a pain in the butt. A green chalk board out at The Mall, so frustrating when it rained. All of my posts had to be so much shorter, it was like twitter for cave men.

    EARLY 2026-27 lineup projections/discussions

    Desmond is another kid likely negatively impacted this year. He was the presumed starter at 141, with Ono doing his stint at 133. I think it's pretty reasonable to assume Blaze (or Ono) now beats Desmond for the 141 spot this year, This also means instead of redshirting while staying close...

    EARLY 2026-27 lineup projections/discussions

    Well 5 for 5 may really screw us, making an already crowded lineup critically impacted while arguably a gift to OSU, with 3 freshman national champs that can try to follow Carter's path to a five year career & associated glory. Don't hold your breath there. I think James today has reinforced...
