We are now at the part of the year where they are predicting 8 All-Americans and 2 Champs (Their expectations have come down over the years)

Are they planning to come to State College to eat wings and watch the finals?

That is fair, I think Wask and Steed are ahead of him too. Wask beat him last year. He will be in a ton of 4-1 matches. I say he finishes where he was last year at 197. He is who he is, I just thought it comical that they feel a cut down to 74 would now make him more offensive.

Newly tan 174 Jaxon Smith beat him when they were both at 184.

One of them said they would love to see how Gabe would do against Mitchell..................I don't think you will love that.

He is the next 4 time champ, right. Or is that Ferrari?

That room doesn't develop champs, nor for the most part finalists.

There was a time HR had a handful of knowledgeable posters who were at least capable of discussing wrestling beyond "stallin". Now, nope, nothing to even indicate intelligent life.

Did everyone miss the big Iowa news last week? Kale Peterson removed himself from the portal and will stay at Iowa.

Only reason he'd stay is if he expects to be the man at 133 ie Crookham is cooked and will never make it through a season healthy.

With 5 for 5 Crookham will have to go 2nd semester. When Drake got the job going to Ames with him was inticing .He was a Sebolt kid like Drake and they have known each other forever.

Pretty sure Kale lived with Sebolt his senior year. I'm actually surprised he didn't leave.

Yes he did live with TJ

Can't Crookham opt into old rules and ask for medshirts.

Opting into 4/5 which he has to because he already took a RS doesn't mean you get medicals and Olympic RS. Waivers have been eliminated. You must submit any medical RS waivers for previous seasons before the end of July

It is all about the duals now, by the end of summer they will talk themselves into a 5-5 split. My personal favorite storyline over there is how Gabe Arnold is going to be "set loose" on the 174 weight class.

By “set loose” do they mean he’ll now be attempting to win in regulation?

I think some predicted that Crookham would have health issues on the Iowa board? Lisa????

Release the hounds!!!!

Safe bet if Crookham is on the Iowa board. Everyone there has mental health issues.

From 65 on I think it is very possible that they do not get a regulation takedown in quite a few of their duals this year. Against Nebraska, OK St, Ohio St , PSU, Iowa St, who will open up? Schubert is a 14% career bonus point scorer, RS Freshman at 97....this season will be an all time Iowa Style snooze fest.

Rumor has it that AJ applied for an Orange shirt, and the concensus is, he just might get it.
