Gabble Steveson to Iowa?

I’m personally not going to get trolled by Gable again this year.
Pretty sure you have to be making progress towards a degree before you can be on a team, that’s what Anthony Ferrari was working on all last year to try to get academically eligible. I’m sure Gable wasn’t enrolled in full time college classes last year. The fool should have been at the Olympic qualifier. They either blindsided him, or he knew he was on thin ice and thought dipping back into amateur wrestling would get him fired. Mason Paris couldn’t have asked for better timing of his release.
 
last time we went down this road Iowa offered him a crap ton of money and gable still decided to go back to wwe. I’d be surprised but not shocked to see him at Iowa next year. He has at least one less option now then he did in the past.

A little off topic but this and Wyatt Hendrickson are examples of why you wrestle Ben at nationals last year. You never know whats going to happen in the future. Had Ben and Gabe wrestled we would have taken 2nd as a team and we would have wiggle room for transfer portal and log jams. Plus you never know if you will ever have another year. Shit happens, could be hurt the rest of your career. Smoke em while you got em. IMO you wrestle the very best guy at every weight every year.

I would much rather see BEN KUETER give wrestling his undivided attention than to dance with this guy again. If we don't think that is realistic, then yeah I could see giving it a thought as it A) keeps Iowa in the conversation of relevancy in a very dark period B) likely means GS to HWC and /or an upperweight coach and B(a) I think getting a phone call from Gable Steveson > getting a call from Bobby Telford. I don't personally care to see it, and if I get asked for $5k to help make it happen I am a firm no. But watching him murder Kerk would be worth something.
 
if he wants to compete long term...great investment, throw everything at him

if its just for his last year of eligibility and then he's off to his next venture...no thanks, i'd rather see what kueter can do next post season

I’ll take a previous national champ for year. Easy-pease.
 
Not understanding where the eligibility claim is coming from. 2019=1, 2020=Covid year, 2021=2, 2022=3, 2023=4, 2024=5. Unless he was on a Mormon mission, taking classes and redshirting, or Olympic redshirting, 2023 and 2024 count as used eligibility.

Now, that would be a whole other level of deception, eh?
 
Gable is going to tease a return to Minnesota just enough to guarantee Wyatt Hendrickson doesn’t come here, then go UFC route.
That sounds about right… But if he can grab a bag of money on his way to the UFC, it might substantially defray training costs.

20-AA
21-1st
22-1st
23-RS
24-ORS
25-Covid year

It's like a modified kemdawg plan.

I did the math about 30 seconds after I read he'd been cut by WWE. Unless ORS means "don't take any college classes and don't wrestle in the Olympic trials but still somehow claim you did both," he's out of eligibility and this is just another silly publicity stunt meant to call attention to himself. The showbiz shtick cheapens his real accomplishments and makes him look like a giant DB.

But I didn't say I wouldn't take him for a year. Let me know when he's on the roster and the NCAA has confirmed his eligibility.
 
Given their Ferrari fixation, TB and boosters should grovel again before the great Gable. Why not? Perhaps this time, the flighty, unemployed, rudderless slacker who blew off the Olympics may even listen, instead of using the Hawks as a skit prop. It’s possible Gabes is teasing again, this time to squeeze more bag from Minny, but with DT gone Cowboy, times are desperate, so its “take our blank check, Mr. Steveson,” part-time Kueter be damned.
It won’t snag a team title but should secure an NC and runnerup trophy . . . a year before an Oklahoma tornado gathers strength and turns northeast toward Iowa.

There is no math in the cesspool.
