Tough SOB. Imagine being a highly ranked wrestler and facing that nightmare situation. Pulling for him except for Hawk matches.

I’ll be honest, after seeing the pictures last year of him basically having no flesh in a good chunk of his leg, I wasn’t sure we would see him wrestling this year.

If it wasn't for Manning, it would be easy to cheer for many of the Nebraska guys. Hardy, Lovett, Robb, all seem like really good guys. Similar to Woods and Glazier good dudes that wrestle hard and are good ambassadors for the sport.

I don’t like humanizing Nebraska athletes. But that was a damn good read.

WOW. That took my breath away a couple times. We forget how lucky we are and how tough these guys are sometimes.
