shit I always forget you can do this! Was following on trackwrestling. I guess it doesn't matter because the Olympics are 100% getting postponed or cancelled altogether, but Gilman beat Andreu Ortega to qualify 57, Zain got pinned by Destribats. 65kg will have to be qualified at Last Chance OQ against a significantly tougher field.
Zain got pinned on a flukey move off his shot. I tried to watch the finals but they were all injury defaults
If that was two years ago today, that means tomorrow is two years since GGCD tried to convince us that Bo didn't intentionally go to his back there. Good times!
I stand by that. Nickal's gameplan was not to go to his back, but he obviously meant to once Myles was in on the leg and about to take him down. If you think you're dunking on me somehow, i'm cool with that.
I'm sorry that all you bucs look alike. If you think you're dunking on me somehow, I'm cool with that, too.
Really good article https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/28918379/iowa-wrestling-back-even-ncaa-title
Drake Ayala commits to Iowa. OSU was going after him hard for their 125 spot. As far as I can tell, all of Tom's eggs are in the Richie Figs basket now.
Boooooooooo! Bummed Iowa doesn't get the chance to win the title, but more bummed Lee won't get a chance at 4 titles.
ODU dropping wrestling, damn fucking coronavirus dude, ODU had a transfer from EMU https://www.espn.com/college-sports...wrestling-citing-financial-impact-coronavirus
Tate Orndorff is transferring to Ohio State and will be the Heavyweight next year, with Chase Singletary dropping to 197 and competing with Gavin Hoffman. Orndorff went 2-0 against Gannon Gremmel, beat Carter Isley and Jordan Wood (!), and split matches with Tanner Hall and Josh Hokit. Only other losses are to Hillger and Andrews from Wyoming. He'll probably be RO12-ish. Solid get, definitely an improvement over gastank,
Seth Gross and Ronna Heaton got engaged this weekend. Ronna's about to poop out some babies that love jesus and wrasslin.
think it was inevitable with spencer in Iowa city with all the recent rumors piled on top. Thought he’d end up at psu, Ohio state, or the otc. Think he made the right choice.
There were rumors yesterday that the hawkeye wrestling club was cutting women's wrestling (they have ragan, miracle, molinari, beck, etc) and that mark perry was leaving as well for Arizona State. Perry came out and said it was false and then today Molinaro was hired at ASU but obviously something happened. Most conjecture seemed to point to the rumors being financially motivated, which would make sense.
I think it has to do more with the Olympics getting pushed until after Spencer's senior year. Clearly he's Iowa's guy and they're avoiding the Ramos/Dennis situation. Having said that, I love the pickup. Will be great for the lower weights.
dake and burroughs are absolutely going at each others throats on FRL. it's been non-stop for like half an hour.
Dake was absolutely relentless with his trash talk. He did not hold back IN THE LEAST. All out psychological warfare.
Anthony Echemendia Flo Documentary about defecting is airing tomorrow. On a related note, imagine being some average high school wrestler in Arizona who just wrestles as a hobby and lining up against this:
so in the midst of former/current wrestlers challenging MMA fighters to wrestling matches, it seems Anthony is missing the joke
Missed this, this is awesome. They will be on a collision course next season and will probably end up wrestling 3 times.
In regards to the MMA vs Wrestlers thing Flo is trying to do, Askren tweeted out the contract they sent to Dillon Danis. What do you think the chances are of Dillon Danis wrestling a high school kid? Zero out of a hundred million?
I think no techs would be fun. Freestyle can end so fast sometimes. Would be cool that a for fun match wouldn’t have that.
