Swaff, he has potential but he’s not #3 in the country good. Not this year anyway
NW / IA PBP

I’m not comparing Schriever and Desanto. I’m simply stating putting Cullan out there is not a death rattle.
Bennett starts down to begin 2nd period and escapes.
Talshahar really picked up his handwork and gets another TD leading 6-5.
Tom Brands hollers to be crisp with shots.
Talshahar gets an armbar but rolls OOB.
:27 left in match.
Bennett works to his feet, gets hands free, and escapes.
:20 left.
Tied up at 6 after two periods.

Maybe not every kid wants to be in college for 6 years.
Why not just wrestle the whole year attached than?
Either Austin is injured or Brands has serious thoughts that NCAAs might be canceled. The only thing that makes sense.
Makes you wonder if some of these guys don't want 6 years unless they get hurt. Gives them all a year with injury in their pocket. I can see not wanting to redshirt for 2 years with the free COVID year. I really have no idea what is going on!
Love Cullen and certainly not throwing in the towel on him if he is the man for the rest of the year.
But c’mon. If DeSanto is done for the year, that is a major bummer.
Isn't it possible that DeSanto is just under the weather?
Even with desanto it was gonna be a battle so going from him to Schriever is a big drop off in team points. Hope I’m wrong but I just can’t see it unless penn state also loses a big point scorer
Talshahar escapes immediately on the whistle. Very quick.

I’m not either but he’s not at ADS’s level right now. Cullan has a very high ceiling and I expect great things but asking him to score 20 pts in March is a very tall order.
Haven’t seen anything from Mineo so we should be good with DeSanto

For him to qualify, then score four points, is a tall order.
If that’s the case than I really don’t understand the brands. You don’t pull a future starters shirt to fill in for a couple pointless duals. It also won’t look good for future recruits, imagine being a parent of a high level kid and thinking if you send them there they might lose a year to fill in for a nw dual lol

I agree, trying to rationalize this while convincing myself it is not worse case scenario. I don't understand why Austin would travel with the team if he was done either though. Very odd and I would bet we won't know anything after the post-dual presser either.
If this were the case you still don’t burn eligibility for Schriever though.
unless DeSanto is going to apply for a medical and come back with Lee? This makes no sense at all!

No, we'll get some buffoonery like, "I like my team" or "I like wrestling"
Murin clutch takedown!! That’s a solid win for Max. Seeding win for sure!

Yes, he does, but I think it's too late in the season for a medical
he does but it feels like he’s wrestled too much already to do the medical thing like spencer.
I really wish we knew what it was like watching Young wrestle at 165 or 174… I feel like he would be a lot different if he weren’t cutting so much weight.
