All indications suggest the door has been slammed-shut to Kueter's University of Iowa football career. And his pathway to a full-time job as a University of Iowa wrestler seems suspect. See Michael Mocco.
Any Word On Kueter And Spring Football?
- Thread starter Rick Honcho
- Start date
Mocco will help BK with his in-season pitch count, but BK is the guy postseason, barring injury.
We'll see how long BK wants to go, he's been beat up in his Hawkeye career. Does his body have 3 more years left?
How would he have 3 years left? By my count he only has 2 left.
2023-24: Redshirt
2024-25: 1st Year
2025-26: 2nd Year
Ben Kueter 2025-2026; (15 team/duel points) (14-9 match record). And watching Kueter wrestle was mind numbing. Performance, nothing that was pleasing to the eye.

I’m not sure he’ll be beating Mocco in two years. I’m hoping MM has a higher ceiling.
15 team/dual points after winning 14 matches? Was that 15 points in March? Or am i missing something.again? lol
Duel? Who did he shoot to get those points?
Ben Kueter: 2 time AA. None of your other stuff matters.
Mocco isn’t beat him out. Ever. Ben has 2 years left and Mocco will have 3 to start. (Assuming no other problems, obviously.)
JFC not this s*** again
Clarification. Ben Kueter 2025-2026 dual match record; 5 wins (all decisions) 5 losses. This equates to 15 team points during the entirety of the dual meet season. My apologies for not providing greater deatail/specifics.
Thanks to BK for gutting it out when he should have sat out and focused on his injury. Great run at Nattys at maybe 50% healthy. Real sacrifice for the team.
Yes. Mocco is a long way away from getting on the podium right now
People doubting BK must forget just how good he was in HS and at age level competitions. He's a 2X AA in 2 tries while being banged up both seasons and undersized. He's only going to get better with added size and better health. It's not crazy by any means to think he will finish his career a 2X National Champ and a 4X AA going down as an all-time great.

Rebuttal below; all the verbal Jiu-Jitsu in the universe cannot gloss-over reality. Tough to disappear some stuff.

Whey doesn't a mod ban this tramp before she is caught flat backing in one of the Carver bathrooms.
Kueter has Yakuza tattoos, so he must have spent time in Japan. His dragons, tigers, and koi fish, are hand-poked by specialized masters called horishi. You don't get them at the shopping mall in Iowa City.

How are the shrooms
Writing BK off going into his junior year (where he probably starts ranked #1) after he AA'ed as a freshman and his sophmore season while banged up is comical to me, but I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion. Guess we will see how the next two years play out, but I have a feeling Ben will silence a lot of haters in the near future.
By the way, not disrespecting Kueter.
His significant injury history and Mocco having a lot of credentials entering college made me wonder.

glad he isnt burning thousands of calories per FB practice and is focusing on wrestling. this is good news for the program.
It would be foolish to write off a fully committed and healthy Kueter. A year with no injuries and full commitment to wrestling and he is a definite title contender, especially in this years field where you’re looking at multiple true freshman being top contenders.
You should have shown BK vs Gable from 2 years ago... it'd be just as relevant to this coming season.
Per your request (below). But this narrative really doesn’t get any better.
Look, the gentleman has been on the casualty-list for the better part of three seasons. Much of Ben’s progress as an athlete has been compromised over that time. During the wrestling season demanding time in the wrestling room has been lost, same loss(s) in the weight room. The rigors of the out-of-season training are absent. In the coming wrestling season Kueter will need to run as fast as he can in order to stand still. NCAA Division 1 athletics is extremely competitive. And a tough business.
If he can turn his athletic career around, my hat is off. But the Polymarket probability board has him up against the wall.
Hate to sound like a brown noser, but I’m among those hoping for Kueter to go on a truly memorable two year tear in wrestling…
I’m a big BK fan, but it’s a bit crazy to predict a 2X Natty champion finish for him. Health hasn’t been on his side, and I’m not confident he’ll be injury free the next two seasons. Now, a 4X AA finish for his career? I can get behind that.
I thought polymarket was illegal in Iowa, or was it polygamy?
I agree it's unlikely he wins it the next 2 seasons but I don't think it would be crazy if he won the next 2 titles, unlikely-yes, crazy-no. He's going to be pre season ranked #1 and without training for football or world championships in the off season I'm hoping he can re-set, get healthy and focus on the next 2 NCAA seasons. I believe in BK, I think he gets a title before his time is done in a hawkeye singlet.
