Wrestling 2026 Rutgers NCAA Tournament Thread

[koleszar]

Houston we've got a huge fv*king problem. There' s no more excuses left for Goodale's kids poor performances.

 

[mjckrash]

guess we can

taken down twice and ridden, this is complete disaster

 

[Anon1751330127]

This round is a disaster so far. Barbosa looks lost.
Team really came to compete….
Time to find some new coaches.

 

[SirScarlet]

F*************CK!!!

 

[MS-RU]

We look like dogshit but it’s absolutely no surprise. It’s been this way for years in March unfortunately.

[koleszar]

Watching the Bianchi match before Pinto's, we just don't wrestle with that type of intensity to get the job done. Everything's in slow motion and nonchalant. That's got to be a room thing.

 

[Kiddagger311]

Went from peak of two champs to years of multiple AA.. to now it’s looking like a real possibility of no AA in the last 3 out of 4 years… even the most optimistic RU fans, only seeing through rose colored glasses, can’t deny this regression….. gotta figure out ways to steer program back in the right direction..

 

[koleszar]

Awesome, I can calculate out our score so far, 0 and I didn't even have to use any fingers or toes to get that one.

Pinto certainly looked more electric when he was at Nebraska.. so it’s not a talent issue w him.. could be a room thing or maybe individual thing… case of senioritis maybe… we need a Ash/Suriano lvl wrestler back on the roster. To show how to live a championship lifestyle/mentality.

... we need a Ash/Suriano lvl wrestler back on the roster. To show how to live a championship lifestyle/mentality.

I know what you mean, but don't we need leadership to show/teach the team how to 'live a championship lifestyle/mentality" and not rely on other wrestlers in the room? Unless your point is that leadership isn't doing it, so....

 

[Leonard23]

Pinto with a nice takedown and ride. Not sure why Pinto cut Schubert when he was riding well and didn't try to get another takedown.

did he get a stalling warning?

 

[koleszar]

We can get deep in on shots but finish maybe 1 out of 10. We can't defend anyone's shots. This is fvcking ridiculous.

 

[Leonard23]

Silly strategy to just cut him twice. Controlled most of the match until last minute.

 

[MS-RU]

Pinto can’t get off of bottom to save his life and drops his match as well.

Still 0 wins this round. Absolutely pathetic showing

 

[SirScarlet]

unbelievable.....

I have nothing to say, this is awful

 

[Anon1751330127]

This team is complete dogsh**.
What are the excuses now for Goodale?

 

[Leonard23]

did he get a stalling warning?

No. It was stupid.

 

[Anon1751330127]

God forbid we upset anyone.

 

[mjckrash]

Bucknell has a couple of wins

 

[Kiddagger311]

This team is complete dogsh**.

The Goodale defenders will come. Dw. The points will be look where Goodale has taken RU and will bring up the dual meet team results/ranking.

They can't rely on that anymore. The team is not going anywhere. Just get rid of the guy already. Him b******* lines

 

[biazza38]

Are we 0-6?

 

[Lerxst72]

Are we 0-6?

Believe they are.

 

[Samson1975!!!]

Post season is the shadow hanging over the program's head.

Rutgers pre Pritzlaff and post Pritzlaff look pretty similar.

This has been a nightmare round.... no sugarcoating it.... But cmon knock it off that every time something negative happens... trolls like you jump in with fire the coach Schick... It's really getting old brah... Nebraska fired Pellini cuz 9-10 wins wasn't good enough... 4 coaches later... They're celebrating a 7 win season...

And now we have Soldano wrestling above his seed. And taking down the 12 seed from Iowa state.

 

[Dakpawknight]

current RU wrestlers 0-6 former RU wrestlers 2-0

 

[mjckrash]

And now we have Soldano wrestling above his seed. And taking out the 12 seed from Iowa state.

just when we thought couldn't get any worse

 

[SirScarlet]

Soldano (20 seed) upsets 13 seed.

 

[5sf]

Do we get partial credit for Peterson and Soldano advancing

 

[BloodRound]

Isaac Dean? I dunno if that shocks me - he's had his number for a while now.

 

[Dakpawknight]

Do we get partial credit for Peterson and Soldano advancing

nope, we didn't show our work

 

[kupuna133]

Isaac Dean? I dunno if that shocks me - he's had his number for a while now.

Yep but was still seeded lower.

 

[Samson1975!!!]

Good for Soldano!

 

[Kiddagger311]

Need SCW to pull this out…they said dw bout Ryder he’s hurt.. good draw.. hope Ryder doesn’t end up being the guy your gf tells you not to worry about…

 

[koleszar]

Through two periods Walsh has done absolutely nothing.

 

[Leonard23]

SCW needed to fire off many more shots. Ryder just blocking the entire time.
