I love stories where people get their sh#t together and turn their lives around. It's very humbling and encouraging for others who struggle with the dark side.
I didn't tell that to myself; The Johns Hopkins University did (play him in chess). PD3 hasn't been pinned since he was in 9th grade...in the National Prep semis vs a guy you might have heard of...Mario Mason, a senior and #1 ranked high schooler in the nation...so don't think for a NY minute that Nickal is pinning PD3...that shietttt just isn't happening, pal. BTW, did you see who pinned whom in the PD3 vs Quentin Wright match? I have him beating either one...Moore or Nickal.
p.s. Did you see Nickal backout upstairs at the Open? When fresh, he'll break string bean in half.![]()
Question about Midlands...You are 100% right on both. I admit I was not completely on board with Pat becoming a Hawkeye at first. Have had a couple of very good conversations with him in the last few weeks and now see why TNT made their decision. Pat is personable, likable, and IMO he is going to be a major plus for the team and do what he needs to for himself.Excellent influence. Interesting friendship.
I hope you are correct WWDM there are a lot of people that have checkered past and deserve second third or more chances to correct their pasts. I am glad that Nathan is mentoring him I’m sure the other guys at HWC are as well. I will be rooting for him just like any other HawkSaw Pat hanging with Nathan Burak at the Rider meet. If I had to choose a mentor for Pat, I couldn't think of a better one than Nathan. Pat's in excellent hands with him and the rest of the HWC crew. That's a whole lot of positive influence. I'm getting to the point where I'd be surprised if things didn't work out for Pat and the Hawks in the spring, and I'm thinking he'd be a great asset to the HWC after this season.
Those silly minor details.I think the only thing stopping him from joining the team is his degree & possibly being admitted to grad school.
Anyone can register for Midlands. If necessary, he'll go unattached as he did, along with Destin McCauley, a few years ago when Manning decided not to go.Question about Midlands...
Say he gets all his credits done at the end of this semester, when is he actually allowed to officially join the team?
2nd part, if that date happens to be 2018, then I'd assume he will NOT participating at Midlands since it's an invitation tournament, right? I can't see Midlands inviting him just because he's expected to be on the roster at a future date. Now, if he's officially able to join the team prior to Midlands, then this is all moot.
Go away. You’re not a hawk fan. Beat it.
Sorry about that Cali. Jordan put over the edge.
Maybe one more world team than you? Just saying.Definitely 5 cents. I see him turning out a lot like DT after graduation. He'll make more whining teams than World Teams.![]()
Most definitely. One was dressed like a sponsored athlete, the other like a hobo.

I want to see him throw that Beaker looking Nickal on his head.![]()
Not a chance in hell. Why don't you ask him yourself?Do you think he's learning things from Burak that he couldn't learn from PD2?
he knows Bo would throw him into reality. 197 is his only shot
Bo backed out of upper body ties within 5 seconds. PD3 would throw string bean into Happy Valley younder. Nobody in the world beats PD3 up top. He wins it at 84 or 97, whatever's best for the team.he knows Bo would throw him into reality. 197 is his only shot
then why is he ducking him?Bo backed out of upper body ties within 5 seconds. PD3 would throw string bean into Happy Valley younder. Nobody in the world beats PD3 up top.
lol...say what? PD3 ducks no-one. Go to sleep.then why is he ducking him?
If he chooses 197 Moore will ride him with spurs onlol...say what? PD3 ducks no-one. Go to sleep.

Why did he back out of WNO? Serious question.
Because he committed to that BEFORE he verballed to Iowa. After verballing, he had higher ups to answer to. No 'backing out'. Next question?Why did he back out of WNO? Serious question.

Get them 22 hrs done first.
If Spencer goes, then Warner goes, then PD3 @ 84.
As I type this out I realize if neither go, I'd still like to see PD3 @ 84 because I liked what I saw out if Wilke last night.
You might have liked what you saw out of Wilcke last week, but if last night was any indication I can honestly say that there's a good chance we will get zero points from him at NCAAs. I'm going to need to see something against quality opponents before I jump on that bandwagon as going into OT against an unranked wrestler was not what I was hoping for...

I'm sure you could beat Wright and Dean , correct?PD3's only claim to fame.
