    If Spencer has any interest in coaching

    ??? He is 13 of 16 at PSU and 13 of 19 as a head coach. Throwing a year off his record is not needed to make him look better. Everyone knows he is doing very well.

    April 1 Portal targets

    That won’t work anymore for next years freshmen if the 5 in 5 rule goes through. All freshmen will want to start so they can compete all 5 seasons. No red shirts so getting kids that immediately plug in will be the norm. For the record I would prefer a 4 in 5 rule like it was and get rid of...

    Iowa's best 2x champ?

    Lou Banach - won 2 NCAA titles by fall including one over Baumgartner. Won Olympic gold medal (made team over Baumgartner). Lou was also a small heavy weight in an era when weight was unlimited. Those who constantly complain about Ben Kueter’s weight should watch some Lou video. He took some...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    I hope she values wrestling. The University has won 26 NCAA national titles across all sports. 24 in men’s wrestling. The other 2: men’s gymnastics 1969 and women’s field hockey in 1986. Her best chances of getting NCAA titles come from women’s wrestling first and men’s wrestling second.

    Kennedy whistle

    I’ve been out of town and finally got around to watching the Big Ten semis. I did not see anyone mention it but Kennedy gave up the takedown to Minto because of a whistle on the other mat. If you watch the video Kennedy is holding Minto’s leg to his chest, the whistle blows on the other mat...

    Coaching Staff Next Year

    It would be interesting to see which coaching staffs do better in 21-30 range. Tough to really compare because some schools that is where there recruits come from. Other schools those are the kids who sit on the bench.

    Coaching Staff Next Year

    Good stuff. Fairly intuitive but it is always good when the numbers support what we believe is true. The 6th place ‘anomaly’ is expected due to the semi-slide. Every year at least one or two kids lose in the semi-finals and are completely physically and/or mentally broken and drop to the default...

    AJ trouble with the Law

    I almost didn’t play the video. I’ve seen Parks and Rec. so many times that I skipped it but mvattivo said it was an out take so I watched it. Hilarious!!! Absolutely hilarious!

    Left-handed wrestlers

    Lead leg is the power leg in wrestling. Opposite of boxing. That’s why being great at boxing and wrestling is uncommon.
