Iowa State beats Oklahoma State!

[laGRANqueso]

At 133 All American Earl Hall gets the only three takedowns for Iowa State in the entire dual and comes out victorious over Oklahoma State's Gary Wayne Harding with a 7-6 win!

Iowa State loses the other 9 weights and meet 38-3.

And here I was about to congratulation our Cyclone brethren about a nice dual win ................................ but as per normal, a bit of sarcasm from the queso. For those wondering, the final was 38-3 Cowpokes.

According to this article the reason for your big pin in this dual was from kj's pre match speech. Boy have the mighty fallen. Still working for nationwide?

Congrats Queso!!!! I would say this should solidify ISU as number 4 in the state behind UI, UNI and GVU.

Ahh... you REALLY putting them ahead of Wartburg and Luther?

Probably not. By the end of the year I'd probably take Waldorf, SEP and Seabolt's traveling squad over them. I think Pollard should consider dropping down to club or intramural.

Why doesn't Terry Brands take a stab at being a head coach at ISU? I was reading an article where he was offered the job when Cael left back in the day, but turned it down. If not Terry, would love to see someone come in and turn the program around to at least bring some respectability back. I'm a Hawk to the bone, but would love to be able to cheer on both schools...

You must not have read some of the latest chatter on the Clone forum! Some idiot claims Terry contacted Pollard after reconsidering the offer to be HC, but Pollard had already offered the job to Jackson. Good stuff, right there.

College wrestling must not be high on Pollard's list of ..."Ten things I give a shit about".

He has a sweetheart deal in IC. No reason to take on the pressures of a major D1 job at this point.

I don't think Terry is the type of guy that avoids pressure situations. I think he likes working with his brother at his favorite University. It is probably that simple.

No doubt. But that wasn't the point.

ramos dennis mcd clark gman might have alittle something to do with it and spencer ncaas are just a jumping off place for these guys .

San Soucis kids could beat ISU if the mother will let them wrestle multiple weights.

 

[SansSouci]

True, but they're only allowed to wrestle multiple grades at tournaments.

 

[milehighhawkeye24]

I am an idiot, I saw the dual score a few days ago and this thread still drew me in....not sure if an F you is in order or a touche......none the less touche

 

[madmustang4]

would have to assume that there is not a lot of fan base complaining to AD about the situation. Especially fan base that contributes large money.
With a shrinking fan base and a losing program, makes it easier for AD to pull the plug on wrestling at ISU.

They need to hand it over to Bono who would likely bring Reader with him and maybe Schoop as well. It just needs to happen

 

[MitchL]

I don't think things ended well as Bono left Ames last time. Whether Pollard holds grudges or wants to have a winning program would be a decision he would need to make.

I have seen quotes from some ISU fans that Bono would not be welcomed back. Until recently, KJ's guys have stayed off the police blotter. That might be the trigger that hastens his exit.

Is it a legitimate question to wonder whether SDSU will place higher than ISU at the newly expanded B12 tournament?
