Of course. Anybody, that says that Cael doesn't care, didn't listen to his press conference in a sober state of mind.
I think he cares about the Hodge, the Heisman of wrestling. He probably doesn't care about measly Big 10 awards.

Maybe Tommy bolts for Iowa?This is great news for PSU! Let Tommy have his award he has 1 year left on his contract. Hopefully they give him a longer contract extension at Ohio State like Iowa gave Brands. Rather have old Tommy at the helm than Ohio State go get someone like Okie State did.
Cael is hoping that it means Ryan has to go to the Coach's press meeting at the NCAAsYeah, the whole notion of Cael being pissed off about this is hilarious. 100% fans imposing their beliefs on the program.
This weekend was not the goal. It was a necessary step toward the goal, but not the goal.
So what if somebody else won awards for Not The Goal. Why would Cael get bothered about something so trivial?
They are very clearly linked. What happened with these B10 awards is a sign of what's probably going to happen with the Hodge in a few weeks. Mendez will get it simply because everyone else is tired of seeing PSU guys win, even if they are most deserving.Wait, we're talking about the Hodge now?
Thought this was about B10 awards.
Does DEI stand for Didn't Earn It?Tom Ryan and crew with some DEI awards
Yes. Try and keep up dammit.Wait, we're talking about the Hodge now?
Thought this was about B10 awards.
Tom said that VV got the nod over Williams because VV showed "More Fight". I thought that was telling. I took it as "Williams got the bag as a Senior and is having fun spending it" It seemed like Nasir was heading the same way during parts of the season and got pulled, but he re-dedicated himself and showed up ready at BIGs. Good on Bailey.The Nicholls thing became the biggest curse I can think of, and in a way I believe VV getting the nod was a middle finger to the whole state of the program's dependency on the portal.
Tommy Ryan bolts to Iowa. Ohio State publicly announces Tommy Brands is a turd and hires Terry Brands as head coach.Maybe Tommy bolts for Iowa?
For sure but hopefully neither program wakes up and hires Dake, Nolf, N Lee, Retherford type of guy. We might actually get some competition than lol.Just saying. Ohio State is a much better wrestling job than Iowa.
I would guess J Jaggers would be next up in Columbus.For sure but hopefully neither program wakes up and hires Dake, Nolf, N Lee, Retherford type of guy. We might actually get some competition than lol.
Bailey was hurt and was out until he healed up. He's as healthy as he's been in awhileI posted this elsewhere, but it seems more appropriate here:
Cael can't be coach of the year because all he does is recruit the highest rated wrestlers. If Tom had recruited the best wrestlers.......he would have no legitimate claim to being named coach of the year. Wait....I am getting a call from Snopes......It seems that when this years' Ohio State senior class were freshman recruits.....IT was overwhelming voted the best recruiting class.....some said best EVER. So..............Nevermind
Ask Tom Ryan how much rev share $ he gets?Just saying. Ohio State is a much better wrestling job than Iowa.
No one likes us. We don't care - we are Penn State.So what. Does anyone on the PSU team care if they get the Hodge or OW? I listened to Messenbrink's interview after the Bigs and he could care less about this sort of stuff.
You guys are starting to sound like the Iowa fans when they were dominating. "everyone hates us!" "It is not fair!" "They are jealous!"
It reminds me of an old song - nobody likes me. Everybody hates me. I'm gonna eat a worm!
Poor Williams must be confused. First he got into trouble in the preseason for having too much fight in a bar. Now he lost his starting spot for not enough fight.Tom said that VV got the nod over Williams because VV showed "More Fight". I thought that was telling. I took it as "Williams got the bag as a Senior and is having fun spending it" It seemed like Nasir was heading the same way during parts of the season and got pulled, but he re-dedicated himself and showed up ready at BIGs. Good on Bailey.
My guess is they are setting up Sparks, Gibbons and Johnson something to praise OSU next year. Otherwise they got nothing!Complete Joke. We all know the Big Ten Network favors OSU. Just like they do with football. Ask Ryan who the Best HC in the World is. Bet he tells you Cael Sanderson. ”Everyone“ Knows it too. Yes w Crowned 7 out of 10 Weight Classes to there 2. Cael is by far the absolute Best On and Off the Mat. Haters gonna Hate because no one can beat us….
Think he relished it. Bulletin board material. Motivation against complacency. Thank you BIG!Yeah, the whole notion of Cael being pissed off about this is hilarious. 100% fans imposing their beliefs on the program.

So? OSU is looking better now at the moment.Ask Tom Ryan how much rev share $ he gets?
When has ohio st wrestling raised 30 million?
It's not even close actually your Iowa hate is blinding you
That's doesn't make it a better jobSo? OSU is looking better now at the moment.
He does.Mario Lemieux- one of the greatest hockey players ever but playing at the same time as golden boy Wayne Gretzky- used to say that the only awards he cared about were scoring titles and Stanley Cups because no one voted on those. I’d guess that Cael probably sees things similarly as it relates to individual honors.
That is true. But....I do believe in Baileys' FLO interview he said that in addition to getting his body healthy....he needed to reset his mental approach...or words to that effect. Of course...it could be the beer remembering for meBailey was hurt and was out until he healed up. He's as healthy as he's been in awhile
I believe his mental approach was my finger is gonna hurt the minute he grabs it which made him not attack and competeThat is true.

It seems odd to care about whether or not other people care about somethingSo what. Does anyone on the PSU team care if they get the Hodge or OW? I listened to Messenbrink's interview after the Bigs and he could care less about this sort of stuff.

Will be a good # not sure if they will release that info or not.What's Iowa's share?
Then Iowa does the worst job in the country in turning that money flow into success. Absolutely atrocious job actually. I hope the Brands bros stay forever. They fall further and further behind every year without changing anything.Ask Tom Ryan how much rev share $ he gets?

Aw come on! Ole Tom was in dire need ofThe Coach of the Year thing really is a joke. Cael’s team won the regular season championship, the BIG tournament championship, had 7 champs, set the consecutive dual meet winning streak record( which is going to go up next year) and outscored his Competition by a mile, but Tom Ryan is Coach of the Year??? They must have this confused with figure skating and the Russian judges were involved. But seriously though, this is why I hate things that get voted on or judged; often times the most deserving person gets screwed. If they really looked at the results, it’s not even close. Cael should’ve won, not that he really cares, but he should’ve won. Anyone saying otherwise is full of $h!t.
Can we get the Brands Brothers declared as national monuments? As holy relics of the past? So that nobody is allowed to interfere with their historically accurate operations?Then Iowa does the worst job in the country in turning that money flow into success. Absolutely atrocious job actually. I hope the Brands bros stay forever. They fall further and further behind every year without changing anything.
6 of the top ten!I don’t understand the angst about Ryan being Coach of the Year. If you look closely… I mean very closely... I’m talking microscope here… you can see the reason.
Cael should be ineligible, and the name of the award should be, “Big 10 Cael Sanderson Coach of the Year”When one person is dominating the field, they are not going to give them the award every year... that's not how it works.
They will instead recognize the next in line for a job well done. This year was TanTom.
From 5-3 to 7-1 dual record and from 6th to 2nd at Big Tens. Hats off to you, Tom. Here's your participation trophy.
Meanwhile, everyone knows who the coach of the year is.
