Iowa / ISU PBP thread

[MitchL]

Does ISU really not have anyone better than St. John? He's absolutely horrible. You get to start if your brother is coach?

There apparently is a chunk of the fan base that realizes SJS is wrestling because of his last name. Could very well be causing a split amongst the team and a morale buster. Would certainly explain the weak effort today .
Jennings is the best option @ 165, but coaches keep throwing SJS out to get pummeled.

 

[CumberlandHawk]

Would have been nice to see another 97 lbr go in his place. Aren't Holloway and Cook eligible, ie. not reshirting?

I could be wrong but hasnt Hollaway outgrown 97.
Also, it has already been mentioned but thanks a million for doing the pbp. Great job!

 

[millhawk]

Why all the discussion about a high school wrestler in this thread? Who gives a crap about that kid. Jesus.

 

[WildTurk]

He's old enough to serve in the military and old enough to make an adult decision on where he wants to live. He very well might mature but right now he is what he is.

That's pretty much exactly how i feel about you.

 

[whejoe]

@UndercoverHawk grades?

 

[Vallholl]

8, 816 ( i think . I put it in the the pbp when they announced it. definately 8,800+

How many people at the meet? Does anyone know?

 

[Vallholl]

He did wrestle offs and at least one dual at that weight.
On Jan 6th, he wrestled in Dbq at that weight.

 

[HawkeyeEmpire]

Thanks for the pbp Vallholl, very much appreciated!

Starting a bit early. I have 2:00-3:55PM blocked off my schedule and my chair / radio ready to go. I'll see all my internet friends at 2 PM!

I would say no since he's wrestled there this year and was weighed in to wrestle if needed. He would have wrestled through an injury.

That's pretty much exactly how i feel about you.

Jesus. Aren't you the guy who was making fun of Stoll after the GOTG?

 

[Gobblin]

Couple? Best of three? Any more information out of these private wrestle offs? I enjoy reading into your posts, so vagueness works for me.

3 weight classes were contested. Never got a word on scores, but it's pretty obvious by our current starting line up who got the best of who.

 

[WildTurk]

Jesus. Aren't you the guy who was making fun of Stoll after the GOTG?[/QUOTE]Yeah i called him a cookie monster. I apologized and and owned my mistake. I even bring it up from time to time. I guess you can say i matured a bit. Something i think you are incapable of. (I also quit drinking Wildturkey 101 btw)

 

[SPOONER]

Dresser just called Iowa "chickenblank" for not sending out their injured backup 197.

What exactly is Iowa scared of, Kevin?

 

[WildTurk]

Brands said Wilke is fine.

 

[McCulloughd]

lol, Ironside trashing Ramirez from Dubuque Wahlert for putting up 4 fingers signaling he won 4 titles (only 1 in Iowa). Said if he went a couple mats down he probably get beat up by Nelson Brands for a 3rd time.

I called him a "punk" because I thought he was showing a gang sign.

 

[pumpdog20]

Dresser trying anything he can to be relevant this year apparently.

 

[hawkster03]

Brands said Wilke is fine.

Then I must add:

Hmmmmmm??????????????????????????????

 

[WildTurk]

Then I must add:

Hmmmmmm??????????????????????????????

Influenza. Didn't need him to win nor an injured Holloway

 

[MilleGinja]

Brands said Wilke is fine.

Probably physically. Mentally it has seemed like maybe he needed a break lately. Gotta do what’s right by the wrestler. Dresser is just being an asshole because he’s an asshole. He likes to try to stir shit up because he has nothing else to do. Iowa State is garbage and he knows it. It’s his way of deflecting. “Yeah we got smoked, but did you see what Brands did? Man **** that guy for doing that”

 

[Jackhawk87]

Wilke recovering from the flu.
Holloway somewhat injured. Could have wrestled if needed, but didn't want to risk additional injury as it wasn't needed.

Not sure, but sounds like Wilke may have been fighting the flu for a while. Hopefully he is healthy and ready to go for BTs.

 

[Jackhawk87]

Thanks for the PBP. Had to mis the meet

 

[millhawk]

That's pretty much exactly how i feel about you.

Good for you.

 

[Gusaford]

Top-notch job Val!

 

[HoundedHawk]

He's old enough to serve in the military and old enough to make an adult decision on where he wants to live. He very well might mature but right now he is what he is.

I agree. Adults his age were flying B-17s over Europe to save the planet. He gets no pass.

 

[SPOONER]

Then I must add:

Hmmmmmm??????????????????????????????

He didn't say that. Or not just that. They left him in IC due to illness.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

The match was over. What’s the ref going to do?

Dock team points?.....

 

[AFHawk86]

How many people at the meet? Does anyone know?

8800 plus. The real question is, "How many were Hawk fans?"

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

8800 plus. The real question is, "How many were Hawk fans?"

ISU fan response: "Yeah well...................at least we're better at basketball."

 

[Vallholl]

Man **** that guy for doing that”

Well, it's entirely possible that Dresser is a bit of instigator.

 

[E-normous]

I have a friend in Austin!

Austin, Massachusetts?

 

[Menace Sockeyes]

Only one I thought we would lose was Bowman to Pestrano. Glad I was wrong. Stillet prefer Happel.

 

[24 so far]

That's what refs are for. Leave it to them, and not broadcast it on a college wrestling board.

Or he can do whatever he wants to do. Free Country and all.

Just because you CAN say something, doesn't mean you should.

 

[24 so far]

Just because you CAN say something, doesn't mean you should.

I don't think you're the one who gets to decide that. Maybe I'm mistaken.

 

[PapaBearSLIM]

Does ISU really not have anyone better than St. John? He's absolutely horrible. You get to start if your brother is coach?

Some presumed he would be a starter for the Hawks leading into last season.

 

[SPOONER]

Some presumed he would be a starter for the Hawks leading into last season.

Those who made those claims didn't know any better and were generally set straight by those who did.

 

[24 so far]

Some presumed he would be a starter for the Hawks leading into last season.

The more accurate description would be some had wishful thinking syndrome and hoped he would morph into his brother, but the credentials coming in suggested he would never set foot on a Varsity mat, and that's what happened in Iowa City.

Got the score pretty close.

The MD at 285 was...........Fortune Telling.

Or VooDoo!!!

 

[grapplefann]

I don't think you're the one who gets to decide that. Maybe I'm mistaken.

I didn't decide anything except to speak up against a-holes that trash high school kids on this forum. We should all have the good character not to do that. But maybe someone is lacking.

We should all be a lot of things that we arent, you included.

If history has taught us anything, those who get bucked off their moral high horse, seem to sustain the worst injuries. Be safe.
