PREVIEW: Iowa hosts Minnesota for top-10 Friday night dual
- Thread starter Tanner Lafever
- Start date
How did NB let his opponent get off the mat when he had the single leg in the air? Bailey also needs to realize that he’s so quick he could make a living shooting from space. His technique is so slick. His opponents haven’t really reacting when he fakes shots. He's so quick that he could make it look easy.

He was fired/not renewed after losing 7 duals in a season as head wrestling coach. What are you talking about better wrestler? It’s about him being a coach.
“As we do each year with every sport, we have completed an evaluation of all aspects of our wrestling program. This year's process comes in the aftermath of one of our least successful dual meet seasons in recent history and after our lowest finish in the Big Ten Championship in 39 years," said Bowlsby.”
They just introduced Kemerer, can we just hire him at intermission?
Nah Telford is on the phone as we speak and is smoothing it over with everyone
Does anybody know what time Iowa is supposed to wrestle tonight???
It’s laughable at this point that the 4-5 guys that defend the Brands on here still think they have any sort of leg to stand on. This program is straight up trash under their leadership. Call me a casual fan or whatever you want but what sort of dumbass does that make you guys that are so blind you can’t see what’s happened.
Block and Williams with 2 of the most embarrassing losses of the season back to back
One of them thinks they know more about college wrestling than Askren if that tells you anything about their mental capacity.
Old enough to have attended Iowa Wrestling meets at the Field House. Non contributor to this forum.
Minnesota 15 Iowa 5.
Is this what it has become? I do not recognize this passive style of wrestling.
Actually pissed off that it has come to this.

As much as I love Kem dog, it’s time to hire outside of the tree. Hire someone who can attract recruits. Wrestling is a mainstream sport now, hire someone high school talent knows. Brands has put Iowa in a hole, we literally have Morningstar and Telford as assistants, 2 of the most boring wrestlers in recent memory. Might as well bring on Franek at this point.
This meet, so far, is far more frustrating to me than the butt kicking by PSU. Whether attributable to recruiting, training, or match prep, too many of our guys just too often lack gas tank, mental toughness, offense, and/or sound technique. Sloppy uninspired wrestling tonight by many. It's not even like Minny is wrestling lights out, we are just bad tonight. Getting hard for me to stay on the fence waiting to see how we do at Natty's.
We really need a reset with the coaching staff, it’s that simple. I’m not the biggest donor but I’m not donating to this again next year. I would actually give more for new coaches.
Did Beatty just say on the radio that iowa isn't looking to beat Minnesota but winning the big 10 and nationals?
That's gold Jerry, gold!Remember, casuals. It’s all about March, and Iowa always wrestles their best in March
You’re solving for the wrong problem. Injuries happen in wrestling. The problem is we have no depth to run out there when it does. At literally ANY weight.
Ok if its broke I'll give it to him.
And if he's been injured all year why is he wrestling especially when he himself said he wanted to redshirt.
And no I'm not a psu fan. But there is something going on behind the scenes we look good then not. We cant wrestle cause we're training we're sick we're injured we're not good.
Maybe its I'm I'm tired of the staff like everyone else. And I really hate talking bad about wrestlers since all them are better than me. I think its time I stop complaining about wrestlers and join everyone that a change is needed at the top.
Yep. Our guys bring no offense. Our guys are passive. Our guys gas out before their opponents.
This program today under Brands Bros is NOTHING like what it used to be.
Why can't our team wrestle like Mikey Caliendo.
1st half everyone lost but Drake who had a TF. Williams lost by MD and looked like sh*t. We looked horrible in the first half except for Drake who looked great. Can't wait any longer for changes. This is horrible to watch; ugly to the core!!!
We're seeing the Kem effect at Minny!! Ugh!!
I seriously don't know what our coaches and wrestlers do all week. What prep does it take to come out on Friday, do nothing on offense, and gas out?
Need to win 4 matches in the back half and ideally with at least 2 bonus points (I think Minnesota will have criteria if we tie)
******* it needed that tech
Cali could have gotten that last takedown if he had slowed the finish just a bit. Did a bit too much rolling around

He’s everything you want in an asst at Iowa now. From Pa with connections, gone outside to gain coaxing experience, had ability to scramble and had offense, oh and somehow was able to continuely grow and become stronger.
It’s wrong to see him in that maroon crap
Kemmdog looks terrible in red
Riddle got ragdolled by Kharchla and bonused by Minto. Kennedy needs to get on his horse
Awful 2nd period from Kennedy. Where are his effing leg attacks? He literally just mauls the head and hopes for a snap go behind.
I gave away my tickets to this meet and I'm starting to think that I ripped him off
Would have felt a lot better had Cali and Kennedy gotten tech falls each.
Karchla put up 20 on Riddle last week. We were fortunate to get a major there.
Outside of 33 and 65 I’m just happy he scored offensively and won. Idk if that will happen the last 3 matches.
