Really, one should thank his club coach...one of the best youth coaches in the nation. He also gave you Nolf, Mega, Cenzo, Stout, Guilbon (?), Cutch...Jody wrestled at Iowa. As usual, all roads lead to the Gable tree.
So...shouldn't you be thanking us for Jody bringing the "Gospel According to Gable" from Iowa to PA? You're welcome
Love the PSU guys and your spin on the state of Iowa recruiting and wrestling:
Prior to landing Lee
1. Spencer is coming to PSU...book it. Iowa fans are insane to think otherwise. Spoke with Spencer's Dad...he no shit puked when Iowa was mentioned as landing spot for his son.
2. Lee has a good chance at being a four timer
3. Suriano is going to wrestle at 125 and move up for Lee
4. Iowa is no fun, Brands are too hard on wreslters, Lee is so close to an elite program, why go elsewhere
5. Having Tom and Terry are no big deal. Their success with little guys will play no part in Lee's decision because Cael will be at Lee's house at midnight first day of recruiting with pizza and the team singing acapella while Zain crushes walnuts by merely looking at them.
6.Iowa fans are already going nuts...did you see their thread on Spencer getting married to his girlfriend? No really, they are actually planning a legit wedding for them...they said Gable's statue was going to officiate
7. We have better partners for Spencer. We have Nico...and uh...
8. Did you listen to that interview? He spoke so glowingly of Nolf, almost like a big brother. He also went on about scoring points and we all know Iowa doesn't do that. Cael created a new brand of wrestling here.
9. Did I forgot to mention that Brands works them too hard and they have no fun? Our dodgeball squad is top notch!
10. Lee smiles a lot when he's winning. Iowa guys do not smile and have no personality like Brooks, Stache, Tony Ramos, Daniel Dennis etc...totally robots who do not speak their mind or have fun
Post Spencer Lee commitment
1.Lee is overrated
2.Getting Lee will eventually cost Brands his job
3.Cael didn't want Lee or Teasdale as a package deal because of the glut of lower weight guys at PSU
4. Lee to Iowa...well that sucks. At least we can get Teasd...
5. Iowa has too many little guys
6. What is Iowa going to do with said little guys?
7. They are going to lose recruits over this (out of the side of their mouth IMO...trying to get into a certain parent's head if you ask me)
8. It's actually good for the sport of wrestling if Iowa gets our rejects. Suriano once beat Lee when Spencer was in the 8th grade. Now, Suriano could beat both Lee and Teasdale...at the same time.
9. Strittmatter steered them to Iowa
10. This has absolutely no effect on PSU
Feel free to add more...I was bored and unable to sleep because I had nightmares about Zain. He haunts me...oh wait a minute, that's TR's line.
