Technically he still has a shot at true second, but chances of that aren't super high.
The only one on our team to wrestle above his seed was Harrington.
It looks like Hall, Harrington and Weatherspoon (who will certainly get an at-large bid), will go to NCAAs. Possible bids for Larson or Smith, but it seems they are long shots. Maybe others can weigh in on this.

Must have partied last night. Wouldn't surprise me.
Can't see it happening for either.
Did Harrington grab a spot?
Thank God for Kevin Dresser.
You really are the ******* worst.
Really looking forward to a new chapter in ISU wrestling. I know none of these guys go out there wanting to loose but it just looks like they wrestle with no fire.
Meeks gives up a reversal in the second period from a fresh start in the middle with 3 seconds left???? Hall gets taken down in the third and spends more time watching the clock run down instead of fighting to get out. Come on guys! FIGHT! Know where you are at in a match!!

I agree. Most of what I saw was fairly uninspired. In the Hall match you're referring to (w/Air Force), he had several takedowns, then made no attempt to hold his opponent even though he had the lead.
I thought the coaches didn't show much energy either. In fact, one or two of them weren't even watching their wrestlers at times. I think they missed having KJ there.
You're correct obviously, but you're not supposed to talk like this on here evidently. Don't question our guys.
Yeah, because having KJ there has made all the difference this year, right?
Thank God Dresser is coming in to straighten this mess out. I hope like mad he can do it.
Don't forget: If KJ was coaching and the results were the same there would be a number of posts on here defending him and the effort.
You're correct. I'm just glad the KJ era is over. Great guy, not a good wrestling coach.
he's now become the first supposed ISU fan I've blocked. please don't quote him.
Congrats to you! Must be so nice and comfortable to live in a box where you don't consider other points of view different from your own. I teach my kids the opposite of that, but to each their own.
You like where the wrestling program is at and the effort you see out of our guys, and therefore probably didn't want KJ to go, and I'm on the other side that is embarrassed how low this program has gotten and the expectations of the fans as well. We deserve better. We were always a top level wrestling program. Now UNI is better than us, and we've become a no-name team in wrestling discussion.
I agree Thank God for Kevin Dresser...Thank God for Kevin Dresser....Thank God for Kevin Dresser....Thank God for Kevin Dresser....well U get my point.......
I'm gonna look at it tonight and/or tommorow. But right now I feel really good about Weatherspoon, okay about Hall (there were a lot of upsets at 133 so he might be sweating it out when at larges are announced), and worth checking on Smith. Not sure if anybody else is competitive. Diblasi's results this morning really hurt any shot he would have had.
This was a F- performance. No urgency, no pride, no fight! KD must deal with a culture shift which embraced losing. Let's get this thing turned around quickly!!
This is pretty much why I was torn about KJ stepping down mid-season. Assuming that the statements about many seemingly being other places mentally during the tourney are accurate (I didn't get the chance to watch any of the tourney), the results aren't surprising. Everyone acting like a dead-man walking tends to lead to poor results.
