Rocket surgery?Because Spencer’s heir apparent was pressed into duty a year early last year and is redshirting this year instead.
This isn’t exactly rocket surgery.
Hope for ISU
I bet Rhodes goes for isuYou’d blow year of Ayala for a couple meaningless duals, and you’re in here ripping on others? Lol
I bet Rhodes goes for isu
HmmI just chose not to whine like a petulant child every damn meet.
Does anybody else here share this principle?principle - not the caliber of product that Iowa puts out.Why would you give up 6 instead of 5?
Geez, I hate to b the voice of reason, but since Tarp and Spooner are two of my fav posters can I ask u guys to let it go?What makes you think he’s coming down? And is that really worth it? Saves a point…maybe?
No, They start meaning something vs ISU.You’d blow year of Ayala for a couple meaningless duals, and you’re in here ripping on others? Lol
C'mon Tarp. That's an 85-mile per hour fastball over the middle of the plate. You got to take a hack.

I bet Lee goes against Isu. Big home meet, probably won’t see him again until Big Ten after that.
No, They start meaning something vs ISU.
I don’t think you’re being a dick, perhaps a bit obtuse though…..Yeah. Blast away at a kid who shows up every day, puts the time in, and gives it all he’s got. Like it’s his fault he’s the best option in the room. But I’m the dick.
Tarp is one of my faves. Still is. This is a spat between broskis.
No. And no.
And no again. A year of Ayala over a dual? Let alone a noncon dual,
First of all he why is in the room in the first place? Who wants to own that?I don’t think you’re being a dick, perhaps a bit obtuse though…..
Perhaps a favor for his Uncle Spooner? That’s the rumor I’m spreading anywayFirst of all he why is in the room in the first place? Who wants to own that?
Usually you are the dick, but I agree here. We saw Harris wasn't very good at the first meet. How in the hell are people still complaining about the kid. He's our backups backup. Who gives a f*** how good he is? He put the time in and is trying his best. He's also possibly the luckiest kid in the world to be at the talent level he's at and be able to start for the Hawkeyes.Yeah.

If he was our top guy I'd get the frustration, but cannot fathom complaining about a 3rd stringer's performance every single meet.
I’d tune in next Sunday.When are they expected to wrestle?
First of all, no you guys, just me to blame. I believe someone said he didn't qualify for a Juco Tourney, so why is he here? NO one in the country would turn him away, really. Look good on the kid for getting here, had to be a dream, wish him all the best. But this has to be on the coaching staff i thinkWouldn’t that be him? I mean, he’s a JC wrestler of note and you can really never have enough 125s. I doubt there’s a room in the country that would have turned him away.
There have been countless threads over here complaining about teams forfeiting 125 “man don’t they have ANYONE to put out there?????”
The funny part is you guys are here blasting him when he isn’t even at the bottom of the depth chart.
funny, all the announcers talked about was getting stall calls , until Assad stalled for 2 minutes with his top ride, never even tried to turn the bottom man.
I knew Artalona likes to throw the headlock and Cobe has been known to get caught with that stuff. Thankfully he turned it around.Damn, Artalona is my boy. One of my HS buddies was one of Artalona's HS coaches. Cobe is a DANGEROUS man!
Don’t be so quick to rule anyone out of the lineup for next Sunday. We’re close, close to having to find something else to complain about other than our “weak” lineup. Each day we get closer.Tarp is one of my faves. Still is. This is a spat between broskis.
No. And no.
And no again. A year of Ayala over a dual? Let alone a noncon dual?
every single hawk team you’ve rooted for has multiple guys at that level. embarrassingly ignorant.First of all he why is in the room in the first place? Who wants to own that?
I agreei don’t understand the focus on harris. kid grinds in the room everyday. it’s not his fault he’s out there when he shouldn’t be. every great team needs great training partners. he goes out there and fights.
obviously spencer is the guy. ayala is both not healthy and redshirting. ybarra also has a redshirt he might want to keep. this is what a 4th string 125-already a weight that most teams struggle to maintain depth at- looks like. no need to shit on the kid.

That's hilarious! LMAO!!how about we agree to a compromise .... Spooner made a good point, but still is a dick? 😉
I think Ybarra is who we can blame. He knew Lee was out for a while. I really am surprised he is still in the room. Unselfish wrestlers work to be at a weight where the team needs them.The baffling part to me is that the Hawks continue to roll out someone this bad. I can’t think of another Hawk that’s been this bad in recent memory. (or perhaps ever). Perhaps you knew that Iowa would start someone this bad, and it hasn’t surprised you in the least, but every time I watch him wrestle, I’m dumbfounded and can’t wait till it’s over.
Bullshit. He has dreams too. Can’t beat lee or Ayala. His best chance was at 133. Stop your shit!! Atleast he is still with the program!! He could go d2 or d3 and place. He is staying for now!!I think Ybarra is who we can blame. He knew Lee was out for a while. I really am surprised he is still in the room. Unselfish wrestlers work to be at a weight where the team needs them.
From the outside looking in, I think JY let the team down.
Nothing - I didn’t realize he was 133. Whoops…What makes you think he’s coming down? And is that really worth it? Saves a point…maybe?
You can realize your dreams and still help the team.Bullshit. He has dreams too. Can’t beat lee or Ayala. His best chance was at 133. Stop your shit!! Atleast he is still with the program!! He could go d2 or d3 and place. He is staying for now!!
Not about you. It’s about him and his dream. His in the program. Your not.You can realize your dreams and still help the team.
Be real, this guy isn't ever going to be a starter on this team.
My opinion, but he got horsed last year at 125, he's going to do better at 133? LOL
Iowa has been the program they are with kids being unselfish. Lee Weber ring a bell?
Who the hell said it's about me????Not about you. It’s about him and his dream. His in the program. Your not.
Agree for all except a little too generous to Warner. He was lucky to win against an unranked guy he should major. I'd say a D.Grades:
125: D- feel bad for the kid working hard everyday and punishing himself on a daily basis to get ridiculed like he does.
133: D please let me see what Teske can do against isu as I feel he is the better option for us.
141:C kid is a fighter but just not quite there Need Woods to go vs isu!
149: A- great gutsy win I get the challenge but you had to know it was two.
157:A++++ Kid is so dangerous! Love how he did not panic!
165: B+ nice methodical major on a rd of 12 or 16 type guy.
174: C first match back in a long time! Thought it was risky to put him out there but good idea before isu
184: B nice win over another rd of 12 or 16 type guy
197: C started out on looking like an A but to get turned over like he did on such a mediocre wrist tilt was not good. But gutsy way to win
Hwt: B+ Another nice bonus point win over a rd of 12 type guy.
