Playing for 3rd once again. Too many holes and too many who want to win 2-1 matches. Not sad to see Warner and Abe go.
Guess Warner isn't gonna shoo at the Tulsa crowd, huh...........Warner done
Telford and Morningstar. Yeah I said it. They all wrestle just like him. Do nothing and hope for a miracle in the end.Telford needs to go. Agree
The commitment to having a *literal* heavyweight upper weight coach is outdated and misguided.The need for offense from the upper weights continues.
Telford needs to go.
Pay J Den Cox whatever it takes to get him to HWC.The commitment to having a *literal* heavyweight upper weight coach is outdated and misguided.
Star and Telford need to go. Its time to shake things up.Telford needs to go. Agree
Has to go through Trumble then Allred/Nino. Don't feel good about that.Gonna learn a ton about Warner next round. How does he want to end his career? A 4x AA for the Hawkeyes puts him in pretty special company. Really hope he realizes that!
I fear you might be right. But I hope like hell he’s able to bounce back and AA for the 4th time. That’s a pretty big deal. I’ll be impressed if he’s able to after that show of emotion.Warner looks like he’s ready to move on with life.
Might want to tell that to PSU who's dominating upper weightsThe commitment to having a *literal* heavyweight upper weight coach is outdated and misguided.
Change in upper weight coaching and some high end HWC partners is not burning the program down. Let's be honest MK is the only upper weight since Jaybo to be a draw to recruiting, but he is gone. NLWC is full of guys that are mid international career, snagging one or more of them would be a boon.I guess I'm ok with your mentality to a point but it gets tiring. Iowa is the second best program in the county and the gap is about as big between 3 and 2 as it is as between 1 and 2 maybe bigger. Burning down the program to try to catch Penn State would be a terrible decision. Let's not be the nebraska football of college wrestling.
Well then tell them to f***ing lose. Why should we have to do all the work?Has to go through Trumble then Allred/Nino. Don't feel good about that.
Morningstar feels like a guy who would excel as a CEO style head coach. His on the mat development leaves a lot to be desired, but he's a great recruiter and good dude. I'd like to see him land a lower D1 job.Star and Telford need to go. Its time to shake things up.
To be fair, I assume they aren't excited about having to face him either.Has to go through Trumble then Allred/Nino. Don't feel good about that.
and zero guys on staff who were heavyweightsMight want to tell that to PSU who's dominating upper weights
He’s the 14 seed, he was going to have a really tough road either way. But, if he could make the finals last year, he can make the podium this year. His issue has always been as much in his head as anywhere else. Just need to see if it lines a fire or douses any embers that may be left…Has to go through Trumble then Allred/Nino. Don't feel good about that.
Makes it worse when Smith from Maryland sticks Trumble. Warner's path to the semis was very doableGonna learn a ton about Warner next round. How does he want to end his career? A 4x AA for the Hawkeyes puts him in pretty special company. Really hope he realizes that!
I don't think his body is right this year. The record on 6th year guys is rough all over the place. He was no exception. Everything looked harder for him this year.He’s the 14 seed, he was going to have a really tough road either way. But, if he could make the finals last year, he can make the podium this year. His issue has always been as much in his head as anywhere else. Just need to see if it lines a fire or douses any embers that may be left…
We have another year of Assad, right?Playing for 3rd once again. Too many holes and too many who want to win 2-1 matches. Not sad to see Warner and Abe go.
I agree but it's time for TnT to shake things up. Iowa needs to get better results out of the middle and upper weights if they ever hope to catch PSU. Right now Iowa is being out recruited and out coached by Cael and his staff.Morningstar feels like a guy who would excel as a CEO style head coach. His on the mat development leaves a lot to be desired, but he's a great recruiter and good dude. I'd like to see him land a lower D1 job.
Pay him and give him any open mic in the city any night.Pay J Den Cox whatever it takes to get him to HWC.
Yep. Of our starters, we lose Spencer, Murin, and WarnerWe have another year of Assad, right?
Snyder in the room says hold my beer.and zero guys on staff who were heavyweights
Have him build up a new program from a P5 conference. One that doesn't currently offer wrestling. Ya know, grow the sport and what not.....Morningstar feels like a guy who would excel as a CEO style head coach. His on the mat development leaves a lot to be desired, but he's a great recruiter and good dude. I'd like to see him land a lower D1 job.

You think Cael and Cunningham are < 197 ?and zero guys on staff who were heavyweights
Yes? Is this a trick?You think Cael and Cunningham are < 197 ?
