Yes. He's so much better than a few years back. And he is a really nice kid, nothing like the preconceived opinion or stereotypes that have been made about him. Very approachable and appreciative of the opportunity given to him.
Sure hope we can spread them out. 3 AA caliber guys at 149 means someone(s) will be hitting the portal in todays world.
I think it will all work out in some way, shape, or form.
In order to be an AA contender he needs to be much better than 6 months ago, not a few years ago. That’s the hard part to overcome. Believe it when I see it.
Being good in the room on your feet is much different than being good in all positions in a folkstyle match. I agree I hope we see some real improvements because he wasn’t that good last season
Guess I'm wrong then. I need to stop believing what I'm seeing with my own eyes and hearing with my own ears. Thanks crabby for showing me the light.
Paniro, Swiderski, & Chittum.
I remember the buzz around a guy like Alex Marinelli and how good he is in the room especially early. Definite national finalist or national champ. He ended up with 3 AA finishes and never higher than 5th. Bastida is also extremely good in shorts and a tee shirt. Not doubting Tiger but I hope we see our guys put it together when it matters most - ie Paniro and Bastida.
Please believe whatever you like. Just don’t expect me to believe everything you say. I have eyes too.
Narrator: “he’s doubting Tiger.”
25, 33, 49, &57 all should be fun to watch it play out. Hope we eventually see Manny Rojas get his chance as well. Would love to see Kraisser get his last crack at the line up but business is business
