I will follow your instruction about the hike soon enough. Western mountains and wildlife call often. Oh, and no “what if” involved in the highway incident. Pure, undeniable, reckless endangerment of human life by an immature man-child in love with himself. Certainly mentally, perhaps physically as well. Who knows with those so fascinated with their physique. One hard truth about all that fitness: Miniscule body fat or not, only the weakest of men choose to physically overpower a woman. But, hey, you keep defending and rooting for him to represent your school. Have a nice weekend.
Who’s defending him other than his lawyer. Show me where someone said that his alleged or otherwise actions were okay? You can’t, because no one thinks that.
You must consider that we are 24/25 season!!!! IF striver was still at 33 in two years, you believe he isn't an AA!?!?!?
I see him as a wrestler, or bulking up a lot to play D-line.
Who in hell and where in hell did this putz come from!?!?!?
Drake seems small for 125 let alone 33. Over powered big time by the Minny kid is maybe sticking in my head.
You got me. That’s the best I had. I confess to having a small, closed mind when it comes to cowards speeding weaponized metal over a blind ridge to prove manliness, not caring who they harm, or, in my experience, kill. Writing him in as Iowa’s 197 is a type of defense called “acceptance.” It’s exactly how someone says his undeniable (not alleged) action on that highway is “okay.” Admit it, maybe even to a woman in your life. You DO want him representing your team. But, nah, I won’t bother sifting through GIA posts I’ve read to find other support you know is there. Keep telling yourself it isn’t.
Good thing they are at different weights.
McKee was a big beast of a 125 and overpowered a lot of guys. It's unfair to draw that conclusion about Ayala based on matches as a true frosh.
Maybe so but after seeing Lee man handle his arm behind his back and horse him over I was thinkin that it would be great if he grew into a beast 125. 133 seems like a stretch. But hell - he could be huge right now and no one knows 🤷🏾♂️
Block concerns me with being able to generate offense. Doesn't have much mat game and not especially dynamic vs quality kids from neutral.
Drake doesn’t look small to me. I can see him bumping up in a year. I like Block a lot too, but he looked pretty awful in free a couple weeks ago, Peterson has been coming on strong as of late, it’ll be interesting to see who develops in the room. It’s good to have options.
A putz who wanted to air a specific beef over here about a specific transfer you’re chasing. Not his brothers, who I hope wear Iowa singlets to help keep the Hawks competitive against Cael. Anxious to see Angelo against whatever Lions await. He’s the diamond in the “look-at-me-love-me-I’m-a-Ferrari “ bag of coal. Truth is, so few here have jabbed back that I’m starting to believe you folks don’t support AJ as much as I imagined, so I’m happy to admit being wrong about that. Want worthless input from a putz that you can tell me to shove up my a--? Uninjured, I think Ayala is AA, Kennedy, too (nothing shabby about those tournament losses). Guessing the gambling impacts will be small and that Woods wrestles and overcomes Alirez in a finals rematch. Get and keep your guys healthy, recruit better, and play portal well. Unlike most Lion fans, I prefer a stronger Iowa team, not a weaker one. Better competition is the best way to improve (see Lion wrestling room). Enjoy the weekend.
If you weren’t so new hear you’d be familiar with a thread from last year I believe when Anthony was reportedly taking a visit. The whole Ferrari family being potential future Hawks was discussed ad nauseam. Angelo was widely believed to be the safest bet, many thought Anthony’s legal troubles were fairly minor, the thought of AJ being a future Hawk divided the room pretty heavily. His supporters indicating if he ends up a Hawk it’s because his own legal battles have been resolved in his favor and if Brands and Co support bringing him on, then they’d support their decision. I for one (and a lot of others) think AJ is a bridge to far. He’s got too much baggage (even if he wins his court case) and it doesn’t seem like his problems are behind him.
Saw this between lawns. Thanks for the civility. Yep, too new to have seen last year’s larger thread about the trio. A wiser man than I would’ve figured it’s been drug through the mud here, with a likely split vote. Since what he did on that highway hits home, I have neither indecision, sympathy, or forgiveness. As stated on a PSU thread, I’m not proud of that stance, I just know it’ll never change.
On a holiday that only leaves me raw, my last post here proves it.
Innocent until proven guilty here in America. Same goes for the guy who bangs dogs.
Im glad you feel your input is needed/wanted over here and that we as Iowa wrestling fans actually care about that input. You visited to have your say about a “monster”…yet that so-called “monster” isn’t even on our roster
williams was competing at 65kg recently so I would guess he is probably a 149
"Chat GPI: write an Iowa Wrestling message board post in the style of a John Cheever short story."
What makes you think that??? Football is providing the scholarship. He will not join the wrestling team until bowel season is over, which is a short wrestling season. Lastly, he has the potential to become an overnight multimillionaire if high draft pick in NFL.

Turns out, I’m WEAKWILL. Said I wouldn’t be back, but here I am. My time is limited, so why not? If you look close, though, it’s not America anymore, but if you believe voting is fair, we’ve chosen our decline. Oh, and already proven guilty of the highway incident, so there’s that. Do find “pet state” to be hilarious, and do think that guy’s guilty, too.
Agreed. My input here means jack. Had to vent, even unfairly. What he did on the highway is a hot-button, self-destructive issue with me, and I felt a petty need to blast a forum where I see him penciled in on future lineups. Like you say, he’s not on the roster, so I should chill.
Cheever’s one I never read, so don’t know the “style” you cite. A sucker for all the Ludlum/Clancy books, before they started being ghostwritten. Hurwitz and Connelly are favorites now.
You won’t see this, but I’d say you’re right. I think most who post on rival sites look to irritate. My intent comes from blackheart hatred of the AJs of the world, and I let that color my thoughts here. Keep supporting your Hawks. They look stocked to me, especially if Steveson joins. I only found GIA and the Lion sites recently and enjoy the back-and-forth. Hell, just the comedy can’t be beat. So many good one-liners on both sides (‘pet state’ an instant classic).
I'm always grateful when bowel season is over! 😉
