I was wrong....this is worse than the dualWell...this isn't going any better than the dual for Caliendo

I've been saying all year I think MM wins the natty.Mesenbrink might be the best wrestler at 165. He is amazing wow. Tomorrows finals will be fun with Hamiti
Yes. And not that long agoHas Iowa ever not had a finalist?
That’s fine. With the way they call stalling now, tiring someone out that’s just blocking off is the only way to beat a guy like that, especially if that guys athletic and flexible.I did say something similar except today’s wrestlers are better than ever at holding position and Michigan has literally mastered it. Without a top notch gas tank, all that movement is going to be more draining on the aggressor than the defender.
Seriously, watch those Michigan guys. They are the ones fresher in OT and win so many of them. It’s crazy and it IS something that is coached there…
It's our worst lineup in years. Just the truth. And we wrestle in the big boy conference.This is just a bad bad looking Iowa team right now.
Yeah this kid is very impressive. I know he ain’t a Hawk but I sure can appreciate some high quality talentI've been saying all year I think MM wins the natty.
I love his style. He might be my favorite non Iowa guy at the moment. He can beat you so many ways.wrestling mesenbrink looks so awful lol
Are you suggesting our fanbase is racist?Our fans would call him racial slurs if he came to Iowa
100% there isn’t a hammer in the lineup. Opposing teams look up and down the lineup and it doesn’t have the same effect as is has.It's our worst lineup in years. Just the truth.
100% I agree. Love his pace and styleI love his style. He might be my favorite non Iowa guy at the moment. He can beat you so many ways.
We are pretty much in agreement. The correct tactics we agree on. I just think I see it as being much harder to pull off against the current crop of MI guys, as long as the refs eat their whistles and let them wrestle that way…That’s fine. With the way they call stalling now, tiring someone out that’s just blocking off is the only way to beat a guy like that, especially if that guys athletic and flexible.
I was not a defensive wrestler. I was always on the attack. Most of the time it worked, and yes gas tank matters when you’re working for 7 minutes.
Defensive wrestling has certainly improved over the last 15 years, but basic principles remain the same. Theory of wrestling is always something I will openly discuss with anyone.
He’s great but I don’t think Carr or O’Toole have ever been majored in college. I think they only have 5-6 losses between them.I think Messenbrink is majoring either Carr or O'Toole in the final. He's THAT good.
Mostly he just takes you down a shit load of times.I love his style. He might be my favorite non Iowa guy at the moment. He can beat you so many ways.
He wrestles how Iowa says they want to wrestle. attack after attack after attack. you might have to kill that guy to beat him.I love his style. He might be my favorite non Iowa guy at the moment. He can beat you so many ways.
Haha. That’s what I love about his style. He has several very clean finishes. Varies attack. He’s a joy to watch. Reminds me of Tom and Terry with their pace but MM might be a cleaner, smoother finisher.Mostly he just takes you down a shit load of times.
What’s the plan out there, don’t die? It’s not even been a contestWe need new coaching blood. This plan isn't working.
I think he appreciates Caliendo actually wrestles him. Most guys turtle and run.Did Caliendo run his mouth about Mesenbrink?
Is that why he kept patting him on the back?
A lot of talent and athleticism to make that happen. I am sure every wrestler wants to wrestle that way. Very, very few have the ability to even begin to try…I love his style. He might be my favorite non Iowa guy at the moment. He can beat you so many ways.
