Are we forgetting that he is wrestling at 61 kgs. That is a bit high for him isn't it? In my mind it may not be that bad of a showing.

Tony is stud. Don't like the way things ended, but people make mistakes and I hope this is or gets, worked out.

Tony was a guy that represented us and represented us well. It would take a lot more than his actions after the trials to change that for me.

As far as I am concerned, this goes for anyone that wears the Iowa singlet, with the possible exception of Dresser, who I feel insulted our entire program and created a lie to lift himself up.

That being said, any idea why he wrestled up a weight? Would have won gold down at 57.
 
He just had a new baby, like 5 days ago. The challenges associated with a new baby on the way can get in the way of a good weight cut. Maybe he also took a look at the competition at 57kg and decided that his development was better served at 61kg. The tournament didn't have the largest turnout.
 
Also saw via his Twitter account that he was stopped getting back into the country due to Visa having an Iranian visit a couple of years ago. Said that he got through ok , but he was delayed.
