rewatching finals noticed that taylor celebrated with every teamate but mark hall after they each won. In fact hall walked by taylor and neither acknowledged each other?

Random occurrence? Or something going on there? It doesnt matter what hall did is exceptional just curious?
 
Hadn't noticed that. Could be DT is just tight with the Jordan family as a SPG alum. Pure speculation on something I hadn't witnessed. I've been told my White House credentials are in the mail.........

I guess im grasping at straws here. Looking for how we can get that edge back. Having gotten back from tnmt and watching espn coverage (which is great) they shoved nothing but penn state having nothing but fun and how they do it for the team ( which i think for most part is accurate and impressive eg nickal nolf retherford).

The one person that was different this whole time was mark hall. It probably doesnt matter but we as a fan base get torn apart for a guy like gilman ( whose style i love) but psu skates on with a guy like hall and his interviews which are a lot closer to gilman than nickals.

Doesnt matter in long run they wrestled great tnmt are on top for a long time. But maybe just maybe they arent as perfect as they portray or probably use in recruiting against us as stated in an interview by terry.

I don't like Mark Hall, I'm not sure why. I actually LIKE the rest of the PSU crew. They are excellent wrestlers AND seem to be good young men. Don't like Hall though. I will root against him the rest of his career.
 
Agreed hawkster!!!! From red shirting in jr high to the superman pose to the whole hes a grown man speech when u r urself 20. Hes an amazing talent but rubs me wrong way.

The others however cant root against them for one second They are special wrestlers and young men at same time.

I have to admit I wasnt excited about what he said post finals. I will say this, I was at the Olympic trials this past April and I thought he handled himself very well there.

With that said I liked Pico better :)
 
Can't really say I like Mark Hall or Bo Penny, but the others are clearly good wrestlers to watch, especially Retherford.

Having said that, I root for every one of Bael's wrestlers to score 0.0 at every tournament.
 
To save you the time, "What were the real names of Cary Grant, Tony Curtis and Joan Crawford?"

I don't know if anyone remembers, but when Dennis Miller did MNF, ESPN would come out on Tuesday with an explanation of all references that Miller made the night before that went over everyone's head. There was one time that they had to explain Dante's Circles of Hell, which I found to be awesome.
Slightly less awesome was when someone picked up on the Warren Zevon reference in the PBP and this reference to Clif Clavin.

I don't like the fact that he is 20yrs old and they call him a true freshman also that he won his state titles from jr HS also 2-3 yrs older than his team mates in the same grade what's the history there I wonder..

You obviously know nothing about Mark. He's by far one of the nicest kids you'll ever meet. I know that isn't something Iowa fans typically enjoy.

Your a clown I seem to remember you claim to be a hawk fan we know your not. That being said a nice kid does not always translate to someone that is humble and not self centered on the mat . I would venture to say this is why DT has an issue with Him.. So go away troll

Wait you seriously think DT and Mark have an issue with each other? Is this like this board insisted that Teasdale was solid to psu?

my gut tells me it's still up in the air if Teasdale comes to Iowa no matter what's been said in interviews. I'm definitely not banking on it till he signs the nli. I can totally see him going to psu.

You do realize that Happel is also a 20 year old freshman as well?
 
Just a hunch guess we will see
Maybe DT doesn't like Hall, but he sure does respect his ability. I distinctly recall when BJ and Hall were engaged, DT said. "Normally that's a 50/50 position for your average wrestler with Hall it's more like 60/40 or 70/30. He is one of the best scramblers ever."

Personally people are grasping at straws here. I don't have a problem with anyone celebrating for a few seconds after they just won NATIONALS. C'mon on guys.

I would throw everyone I could lock up and then do my best Hulk Hogan with a lil Ric Flair.. Woooooo

But that's just me!!!

i never flexed, don't bother me when others do. i always looked to where i knew pops was.what does kind of get me is when someone points at the other teams fans, that is to much in your face for me.
