Imagine how bad it would be if we had Cornell's roster
Luther Open
- Thread starter Aleric1
- Start date
He wouldn't have to dominate The Bull for the spot because there's nobody who is going to dominate Marinelli, so that's an unrealistic standard. But if he's the better wrestler then I don't see why he wouldn't leapfrog Marinelli in a year where the team race will be tight. Tom's job is to put the best team on the mat and if Kennedy can contend for a title and gives us the best chance at winning the team title then I think he goes.
Dude… are you nue? It’s just a natural occurrence here. Like a law of physics or something.
As do I regarding Warner.
But I'm speaking in general terms. Historically MFF's are common amongst teammates at early season Opens. IMO of course, but it's playing out today and was largely inevitable, again IMO.
Do you see them go on occasion? Sure, but more likely backup versus backup (Turk vs Reyna for instance, they are backups to Murin until proven otherwise). Clearly I expected it, so no consternation at all from me that there are MFF's between Hawks.
Yep. I'm still pissed that petition to change his name to Jaydin Jones stalled in committee. Now look at the shitstorm it's created!
Nice day for mr young today!! Looked great. Glad he got these matches in before the Princeton match
It's been almost a decade and most people still can't get Sorensen right, so what do you expect?
Henson with 14 TD’s, wins 28-13 in the 2nd period to move into the 141 freshman finals.
Henson mauled his guy in the final. 28-13. Has speed, power and a great gas tank. If he gets his bottom game that good he will be nasty tough.
Marinelli takes Kennedy feet to back on the edge for just a TD 3-1. Escape Kennedy 3-2. 15 sec. Alex wins 3-2
Kennedy has really turned it up. Quality handfighting and bottom work. He will step in nicely. Wanted to see more shots all around. Lot of respect there obviously

Marinelli and Kennedy basically even. Marinelli's experience was the difference.
great match we have a very good replacement boys
Bull vs. Bull with hair
pk was not happy and that is a good thing
Joe Kelly takes 3rd, Iowa goes 1,2,3 at 165.
He is. He is a Missouri recruit and an Askren kid. Kid looks like he could be 25.
Ranked 5th at 182 according to Flo. Going to Missouri. Abe looked like he has to knock some rust off.
Abe Assad shouldn’t lose to a high school kid. WTH. Needs to score early and often. Crazy
That was a good loss for him. Coaches have been on him about his spurty, opportunistic style on bottom… and they will be on him about it even more now. I’m just happy because it seems like this loss got through to him in terms of knowing that he needs to change it up, because the first thing he said when he met us in the bleachers was, “alright, no more messing around, I need to start doing what Nelson Brands does and explode out of there on bottom and not wait for an opening… because sometimes there’s not an opening.”
So this match, although the outcome was not in our favor, was hopefully a good thing on a long term development scale.
Zane wrestled a good match. Those two go wayyyyy back.
On a side note, that ref was blatantly inconsistent all day on how he chose to call stalling when Iowa guys were wrestling.
Good to know that our supposed 184lb starter Abe Assad will be able to handle the size and strength of All Americans at 184, unlike Nelson Brands.
Oh, wait. He just lost to a high school kid.

That kid was in HS?! He looks older than me… and I’m 38!
