Kale Petersen signs NLI

Nice to have more good news. Solid addition!
Kid has a baby face. Hopefully that means he’s got a lot of room to grow and improve!
He's a senior now correct? Would he not be an incoming freshman this year?
I wondered about that as well when it came up last weekend that the hadn't "signed" yet. Looks like it was just a formality.
I think this kid will be fun to watch. There's just something about him that says he's going to be special.
Without watching him wrestle, what’s a good comp? For some reason I wanna just say Cory Clarke but I have no clue. I’d take a Natty tho….
Not sure why it took until now to do the NLI. I know walk on athletes do not sign an NLI so possible he was a walk on at first but now getting scholly money following his recent national success.
Could be exactly that, wanted a chance to raise his stock before signing. Then went out and did just that at the Open.
Also, glad to have Kale officially on board! This guy screams of someone who will make huge gains under TnT. Looking forward to the WTT 61KG. Hoping we get to see a Bouzakis rematch in the Best of 3 finals.
He had a great tournament at U20’s. Did well against Bouzakis, I came away very impressed.
Yeah...which Chittum commitment we talking about...Minnesota, Iowa, or ISU?
Recent success and scolly money getting unexpectedly freed up almost simultaneously?

A good comp would be a shorter, slightly quicker version of a healthy Cullan Schreiver. Both not great on top but relentless on their feet. I know he had a semi serious injury his Freshman year in High School but has stayed relatively injury free since. Let's hope the years of Sebolt over training don't catch up to him in College and he continues to jump levels and avoids a major injury.
Cory Clarke is a good comp. Goes about his business. If he learns to ride like Clarke he will be a Natl champ. IMO.
That’s good to hear.
Knee was taped up pretty good at state and to me didn’t look that impressive even though he came away with the title.

Geez..... how desperate can T&T get, signing someone named Kale? 
Once one person misspells a wrestler's name, it's katie bar the door. Is it some kind of tradition around here?
Cory Clark - Iowa
Kizhan Clarke - not Iowa
(Sort of understandable for more elderly non-Iowa fans.)
Once one person uses incorrect capitalization then it's Katie bar the door.
(Must be prevalent with older non-Iowa fans.)
It’s cesspool tradition.
Ironside could not get Logan “Steibler’s” name right on the radio. The tradition of miss pronouncing (spelling) started there. Some have keyboard issues but they never corrected in honor of Ironside. He still says Gable “Stevenson” now and then and there is the famous “Wizard” move that he often references. My daughter has no interest in wrestling but when I have it on TV she will ask if can put Ironside on. We love that guy.
Not the character from Roots who spit into Sally Dunkin's water.
Former UNC 141 that lost to Nick Lee in finals, who I think is wrestling freestyle for Germany.
We met Harry C, walking with his wife one day in Chicago. He was gracious.
Why were you walking with his wife?
He was asking the same question. But he was gracious.
