Cadet Freestyle Day 2
- Thread starter Azchief32
- Start date
Steveson wins 5-1.
Russian scored first point on a shot out of bounds. Steveson responded with a single leg takedown and then a gut to go up 4-1 1:10 into the match. Steveson scored another point by forcing a rather stacked Russian out of bounds in the second period. Steveson controlled the entire match.
100 kg/220 lbs. - Gable Steveson, Apple Valley, Minn. - Cadet World Champion.
Now a two-time World Champion.

Thanks Buf...got it. Russian coach straight up slapped the ref, who happened to be American btw. He got kicked out but then ended up presenting the medals at that weight. Ten bucks says that the Russians won't get suspended...meanwhile, Mongolians sitting there in their underwear watching at home saying, "What?"
I saw a good point from C. Pyles on Twitter. Mongolians get permanently banned from international competition for their "peaceful" protest, but Russians continue with the physical confrontations and nothing will happen. The UWW "needs" them too badly...for the good of the sport.
Rather than drop the hammer I think the UWW narrows the discrepancy between the violent Russians and naked Mongolians by easing up on the Mongolians, and maybe punishing the Russians just a tad. Won't entirely immunize them from criticism but it's tough to imagine Russia getting anything more than a wrist slap.
"It's not like anyone brought a gun onto the mat or anything," explained a UWW spokesperson a few weeks from now.

WTFI is RBY? TIAFYA
Time to dust off the old Jerry Tarkanian quote: "the NCAA is so mad at Kentucky they’re going to give Cleveland State another year of probation."

Isu could definitely use steveson but they've got a lot of guys these last 2 recruiting cycles between 125-133 they should be going after need weights now. Bank on RBY in the B1G btw just maybe not where most would expect
If RBY and Steveson are looking at Ohio State, I have to think Ohio State is also looking at David Carr.
I hope Iowa State lands 1 or 2 of RBY, Steveson, Carr and Wittlake. Not sure which weight is needed most and not sure coaches know either yet.
Also Teske and Real Wood would be on their radar, I think.
How Vega manages 125 next year. Assuming Simmons will be 133. RBY could be a need.
How Coleman and Mantanona shake out at 174/184. Wittlake could be a need.
Gremmel at Hwt, but how do you not go after Steveson.
165 - Verkleeren, Baptista, Allar seems to be 157/165 pounders, but I really like David Carr. Assume he is at 165
