    Final X

    I am stealing that line from your Dad. Good stuff. I need to remember that with my kids and sports. Keep that shig inside.

    Final X

    Just 100% on Jax for losing. He is the best wrestler but he he has mental lapses. Cut your hair. Stay engaged. He stopped wrestling and the match was over. He's better but not that much better than Blaze and Devino. Even in the national championship match he's celebrating early. Mental focus is...

    OSU wrestlers who should have been OW at the NCAA

    Couple of questions, please? The seed numbers are for the OSU wrestlers? In 2025, Wyatt Hendrickson was the #2 seed. Also in 1977, you have Jimmy Jackson as the #2 seed but also beating the #2 seed?

    Yes, if that new five year rule is passed there is no reason for anyone to redshirt, ever. He might take his lumps but it will be great experience.

    Freestyle musings

    I really don't like it at all. For all of the excellent reasons you lined out above. Of course this could just be from wrestling and watching Folkstyle my entire life. I like the mat wrestling, to me that is what wrestling is. Going back to the Cave Man days. It's where two people always end up...

    Next Year’s Lineup '26

    What weight do we think he needs to be at by next season to compete with the best? 240-245ish? Bigger? Want him to maintain his quickness and explosiveness. He needs to gain weight in his lower body - legs and backside. Shouldn't be too hard if he dedicates.

    2026 US Open

    Yes, overall disappointing for a variety of reasons. Puzzling. But we do have a ton of depth. And several stars. Hopefully when the word teams are set we have good representation.

    2026 US Open

    Thinking optimistically here. Seems like we still have a good chance to see Jax, Zahid, and Wyatt make the Senior Team. Robideau and Ross potentials on the U20 team. Would Jax go for U20 WTT? Plus some wildcards. Raneys in Greco.

    This is pretty light. What does he need to weigh by January 2027 to compete in D1? 240? 250?

    Wonder if he's injured? He didn't look like himself yesterday.

    Also what is up with the new breed of young wrestlers?!? We've seen high school seniors beat an NCAA champ, and an Olympian/NCAA Champ today. Plus what Jax did. So many examples. How are these dudes so good so early? Was there some kind of massive jump in talent or technique or participation...

    2026 US Open

    Ross beat him last time they wrestled. But I think he will need to add some good weight, especially in the lower body to keep pace.

    It's his frame. American Bull Moose.
