....Big Ten Elite: 1997 Iowa Hawkeyes Wrestling.

So many good storylines:

-McIlravy back from Olympic hiatus and looking for redemption.
-Brands back on staff after winning gold.
-Ironside's Hodge winning season.
-Being underdogs to Okie State in the tournament (IIRC?)
-Jessie Whitmer's incredible run.
-The tournament being just up the road in Cedar Falls. (Was this the first time the tournament was on an ESPN Network with the entirety of matches shown? Or no?)
-And (of course) Gable's final season, riding off in the sunset with the greatest team ever.

Am I missing any other storylines? I feel like there's some other good ones I can't recall at the moment. Now who do we have to bribe to get this done?
 
Add to it the run of consecutive wins on Friday that sealed the deal before Saturday began. Hell of a tourney and was there to see in person

I think what was suggested is after a recent comment many may have decided to put you on "ignore" or no longer engage you. If on "ignore" they wouldn't be able to see any thread you create.

That's certainly a risk one takes on the board, if one allows themself to be perceived as initiating an unprovoked attack on the motives and sensibilities of a good many board members.
