His H.S. coach said Pat feels its one of the best decisions he has ever made.
But were they having f***? That's the only real question.
Of course he is going to say that now. I talked to someone in the know that he disliked the attitude at Iowa and thought he could get better coaching elsewhere.
I believe he was joking, and referencing the Teske thread.
I like both of those results...it means a significant upgrade at 125, and hopefully that both Turk and Murin are tough as nails but in any event that Murin's not a dud.
The win was by a stall point in OT, but Turk was going to finish the shot anyways.
So Hall wins a Title and he didn't hit the ground running because he lost 2 matches? LOL! Spare me is right.
You think losing to a non-AA early in his true frosh season was “hitting the ground running”? Are you actually going to explain to us why it would be so bad if Warner lost in the wrestle off but it wasn’t bad for hall losing early last season?
You're not smart enough to quit when you're clearly behind, but it's great entertainment for me, so keep reaching! LOL!
Warner will lose eventually though, so hang in there and show us your "brilliance" at a later date! LOL!
Indeed. A little over a month into his collegiate career, the reigning Jr World FS champion and true Fr Hall, won the Southern Scuffle in dominating fashion, beating 3 ranked wrestlers. Won the finals against Okla St's #6 ranked Krutchmer 10-3.
Yeah... he was a real nobody when he started.
I like when these plucky guys like Warner and Hall come out of no where to shake the wrestling world up.
You talking about the guy that was bagging groceries until he got a call from the Rams?
No brilliance here. Unlike you, I just understand that losing to a solid but unspectacular guy early in the career of a true frosh wouldn’t spell doom.
Simply not true as a blanket statement. Different kids come in with differing levels of physical development which has little impact on their potential of recruits. It's easy to pick out the real superstars - and you are referencing true superstars with your examples, Snyder - on a trajectory to be the greatest US wrestler ever, Cox - beats Snyder in HS, wins World Bronze still in college, Mark Hall - on a trajectory with above and one of the top junior wrestlers in history.
This does not apply to your top 10pfp. Maybe to your top 1 or top 3 or 4 at most depending on the year. Otherwise, it can be really hit or miss depending on physical maturity. You can reference the other guys and I can come back with Bo Nickal, who is on pace to be a 4x finalist, maybe 3x champ, losing to a guy outside the top 20 midway through his true freshman year; Ed Ruth placing 2nd at both the East Stroudsburg and Shorty Hitchcock (both hosted by D2 schools) and 5th at the NLO his true freshman year, etc., etc, etc.
i cant find the post... but when i said that Max Murin would make the 141 finals interesting... i was told it wouldnt be happening...and Murin never did make the finals...but he did wrestle Turk awfully tough and took him to OT and 1 point loss.... I think Old Mad Max may change a few minds in the future...he is a go getter
Love Murin
His body type and stance are really similar to Metcalf in my opinion. He'll be really tough to score on. When Sorenson did get to a leg he scrambled well too. I'm pretty excited about how 149 is set up.
I sometimes feel that our transfers, mainly Lugo, gets looked over in our recruiting talk.

You seem to be all over the place. Have you decided on a stopping point yet? That grave ain't gonna dig itself. Keep going.
Not really, no. Myself and others have stated many examples of why your comment was ridiculous and you haven’t even attempted to defend your claim or address the counter points.
So, once again, why would a loss have meant he was overrated when that didn’t prove to be true so many other times? Are you ever going to answer, even with a “my bad”?
Actually, he's 0-0 on the season so far....oops.... Hall lost his first match of the season yesterday.
He should take a RS year, he clearly isn't ready.
Since the all star classic didn't happen until after the competition start date this year those matches should count. They don't but they should.Actually, he's 0-0 on the season so far....
