Match Thread: RU at Purdue, 1pm, BTNplus & Flowrestling:

[nikoru09]

Ummmm, honestly not sure what you are trying to argue here? Metzler is healthy. No one criticized him.

im saying cut some these wrestlers some slack......thats all...easy to judge a kids ability, starter, back or other wise from our keyboard comfort

 

[IroniaHorse]

Sorry but Metzlar's a backup and would have been a career backup at this level if not for being pressed into service do to Aguilar not being ready and the transfers.

Maybe Metzlar is better than Aguilar?

As long as you keep it professional, avoid personal attacks and insults, talking about performance is fair game. Welcome to the message boards!

Or maybe they want Aguilar to red-shirt because they think after a development year he will be our 4 year starter at 125.

IMO, at this point they are pretty even in terms of skill level.

 

[koleszar]

Lipari might just win here on locked hands.

 

[R U Crazy]

Aweome job by Lipari winnning in SV

 

[josh1728]

Lipari !!

 

[KidDagger]

Good gutty win by Lipari!

 

[RutgersRaRa]

Huge reversal for Lipari!

 

[koleszar]

Lipari with the reverse to win 5-4 in SV.

 

[koleszar]

No he lost to him in wrestle off. Too small for B1G needs to add more size.

 

[R U Crazy]

AA clinches match with a pin

 

[koleszar]

Ashnault with the pin.

 

[josh1728]

[Jersey Boys]

If JVB wants to make noise in March he needs to beat guys like Parriott. Big match here for him.

 

[RUTrack94]

One more match win and another B1G winning record ...

 

[Scarlet Knut]

So far so good.

 

[Harleyr1]

Ashnault with the pin.

And all that negativity about Friday night .....he won remember so why the criticism

 

[koleszar]

And all that negativity about Friday night .....he won remember so why the criticism

Is this question posed to me? I just reported he pinned with no other comment. You're a strange individual if so.

Anyway JVB loses 3-2.

 

[belushijo]

Thank gawwd they're giving Glasgow some time to get that knee right.

 

[belushijo]

And all that negativity about Friday night .....he won remember so why the criticism

Yeah....the kid is allowed to have an "off" day every now and again. It happens.

 

[rondi]

Nice dual wins this weekend!! Way to go RU!!!

Go RU!

Yes, lost 8-1

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

11-5 record, 4-3 in-conference. Highly likely to finish above .500 in B1G this year.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Called it:

Guys, do you follow college sports at all? Fully expected somewhat of a letdown tonight for Ash tonight after last week. He’ll come out Sunday and destroy his opponent. Watch

[Harleyr1]

Wasn’t replying to you at all ...to the guys ripping him for not beating his opponent bad enough lol

Aguilar needs to get much much stronger if he will be a significant 4-year B1G-level contributor. Strength and conditioning, and the requisite mental focus and dedication, is severely lacking in most RU wrestlers (AA and Nick S excluded). Is this a coaching problem? Is this a funding $$$ problem?

Or maybe they want Aguilar to red-shirt because they think after a development year he will be our 4 year starter at 125.

Aguilar will be fine. He is a smaller guy, like Darian Cruz, and just needs to physically mature. That takes time. Strength and conditioning, Correnti excluded, is not an issue for the team. Lipari is really a 133lber and small for 141, but he is doing fine at 141. JVB is a tall guy who relies on leverage. He is plenty fit and I bet he beats the Purdue kid the next time. Correnti is frustrating but the kid has great skills. I hope he puts it all together. Bottom line, for many reasons, not a lot of guys are cutting a lot of weight. That’s why they look smaller.
