I see Mizzou got beat by Va Tech this week. Looks like Mizzou didn't wrestling Surtin at 125 or Jaques at 157

Also, another relatively close match for O'Toole against a guy he should be majoring.

I watched. VT also had two starters out. Not too many surprises and teams were evenly matched. Hart v Casey & Elam v Younger will be something to see. Carr & O'Toole too of course, but he had his hands full for most of the match & wasn't overly impressive. Finishing ahead of both these teams will be a challenge at Nationals, but doable.

Well then....

Unfortunately, that is actually pretty cool.

Did people really think Iowa wasn’t going to continue to get top talent? Pretty big deal for them.

Well then....

Why can I picture Tom and Terry as tag team midgets jumping off the top rope?

They could battle those two guys who wrestled Nacho Libre and his partner.

SDSU has some guys this year.

Wilson was coming in wide on every shot. Dudes gonna get tossed a lot if he doesn’t clean that up.

Tanner cook is super dangerous. If he gets your head, you’re in big trouble. He can pin anyone.

He will pin the guys who are too loose.

David rarely makes those kinds of mistakes, but anything is possible.

It stuns me how many guys play right into Cook's hands lol. He's absolutely electric though! All or nothing type of guy. In his 4 years at SDSU he has 35 wins by fall. In matches that don't end in WBF he's only 16-16. Wild.

I think Carter Schmidt was beating him at the Daktronics Open this season until half through the 3rd and got pinned in 6:42.

One heck of a lineup.

This fantastic stuff. I hadn’t heard that story before about how Dresser barely got him.

About like us barely keeping him from going with Schwab to IL. Thankfully it's all worked out

Really enjoyed learning more about coach Metcalf. As someone who grew up in north central Iowa and moved to Michigan many years ago, I appreciated his points about the wrestling culture in Iowa vs many other states. People here often don’t believe me when I describe standing room only crowds in high school basketball gyms for wrestling meets . It really was something special and I hope it’s continuing today.

Damn that's a really interesting interview. There isn't coach speech in it.
