Dour . . . : )

Some Old Hiker X thoughts:
-Luke close to overtaking USA’s best 57kg
-In freestyle, he’s Marcus the Mechanic
-So glad Zain’s wife told him to scratch that itch
-Levi burning villages in his first year of legal drinking age
-Dake becoming NLWC’s Obi-Wan
-Snyder on a redemption tour

Nobody has made a run at Snyder either. It could be as simple as "make a run at" doesn't happen as frequently as we think, or at least not as publicly as we think, and Taylor was a unique case.

I doubt any AD is going to take a run at Snyder with his legal baggage. If he was a prospective football or a basketball coach, maybe, but not for wrestling.

Snyder has said he wants to compete into his fourties. That’s 10 years away.

I'll pick 10 golds then since Kozak is an anti-American pinko.

Guaranteed he’s picking Gold for Zahid and gold or silver for Jax, had they made the team.

What I didn’t understand was all the people picking Lovett and Chance.

I thought Zain and Levi would comfortably win - and they did.

Dake and Marcus were (very) nice surprises.

Snyder was a lock

I mean, Levi won a world silver after having just turned 21 a month before. If Jax does that, Flo going to be like:

Snyder's arrest was 7 years after he graduated. If some school wanted to poach him, they had ample opportunity to try. That's more time than Iowa State needed to hire Cael as head coach.

If you prefer Burroughs as an example, he graduated 15 years ago.
