Session III

[SPOONER]

That’s a ridiculous comment. “No respect.” lol.

Murin on deck mat 3

 

[UndercoverHawk]

PK isn't at that level. 165 is insanely deep with 3 NCAA champs PLUS multiple other returning AAs. He won’t even be a top 5 seed.

If PK wins big tens he will be the 3 seed.

 

[HawkFan1986]

“He just needs to shoot!” Is the most rube wrestling take ever.

Shooting recklessly is a bad strat, but generating offense and getting in deep, like Murin did against Sasso is a good strategy to wear out a wrestler that has had gassing issues before. In fact it is Murins best chance to beat Thomas. Defending good attacks is exhausting, even if an early attempt ends up getting countered, making the other wrestler use his body weight to defend is worth it, cuz it pays later on.

Murin isn’t as athletic as Thomas. He is the very definition of a grinder. He can’t rely on hand fighting for 6 mins and 40 seconds and try to steal one late. Thomas’s athletic ability will win out, unless Thomas is a step slower because he’s been having to stalemate Murins attacks for 2+ periods.

Pretty sure that’s what the “shoot more” poster referred to, and I’m pretty sure you knew that. But Spooners gotta Spooner right.

I’d like you to say something positive about Iowa wrestling. I’m not sure I remember you ever doing that. If being a dick was in the Olympics you’d take the gold.

 

[Redm18]

Murrin just breaking brains in the tournament.

 

[hawx]

Yikes Yahya just hit his head on the hard floor I think?

 

[Trapper85]

Yahya down with concussion protocol

 

[sstark46]

Yikes Yahya just hit his head on the hard floor I think?

Yeah he came down pretty hard. Hope he's ok

 

[Nashville_Hawkeye]

@PSU Mike that comment was directed at Spooner not you.

Hope life is treating you well!

 

[Trapper85]

Brands on deck mat 1

 

[Hawkeye4lifee]

Murins been brutal this tournament

 

[bdcolt45er]

Yeah he came down pretty hard. Hope he's ok

Ironside said the matts are harder than normal.

 

[rufus-hawk]

Yeah he came down pretty hard. Hope he's ok

These mats too hard per Ironside. Not good.

 

[KFSuperStar]

Why is there bare court 5’ off the mat?

Do better UM.

 

[Redm18]

Yeah it's not the mats it's the lack of runway off them.

 

[Valholl]

Does anyone go to concussion protocol and then wrestle/

 

[Herky5]

Once again Max sitting for 5 plus mins waiting while he is warmed. This is terrible on an athletes body. They need to make a change to this concussion rule. The nonconcussed athlete is not being protected from getting hurt.

 

[dtripp26]

Ironside said on the radio that mats are harder than normal...not "weathered" properly.

They let them sit and get dressed what else can they do?

 

[Trapper85]

Not sure if Yahya mff'd, but they moved on to next match

 

[bammhawk1]

Should never happen

 

[Redm18]

Very possible. Both of Murins knock outs have come on the hardwood.

 

[blcoach80]

Not sure if Yahya mff'd, but they moved on to next match

I believe he did.

 

[sstark46]

Murin advances via Injury Default, will face SVN again for 3rd

 

[bdcolt45er]

Ironside said on the radio that mats are harder than normal...not "weathered" properly.

Exactly. Grace said they were hard unprompted from Ironside. He asked him if he had been on the matt and he said yes they are really hard. This was before the session today.

 

[Redm18]

I believe he did.

They raised murins hand

 

[blcoach80]

Getting 3rd would be huge for Max. Should get him a top 6 seed for NCAAs.

 

[dtripp26]

Very possible. Both of Murins knock outs have come on the hardwood.

They did? Thought Omania was on the mat?

As was Gomez slam and Lee broken collarbone.

I'm not sure an athlete has ever been cleared once concussion protocol begins so it's mostly irrelevant

What would that change be?

Interesting spin.

I'd rather stay warm and wait, then not know where I was.

 

[Valholl]

Haha Ironside cracks me up. If you got extra point for wrestling longer Cam Amine would be the best wrestler in the world.
