Will Brands ever get the lineup right?

They should have had better wrestlers at 125 and 141. That's fair to say. But the issues are deeper than that and it's fairly amazing you don't see it.



Focusing on a win against a good wrestler and ignoring all his other accolades is a weird way to evaluate a guy.



Norman just went 2-2 at the ACCs with a couple of losses to guys in their 20s. Simma has 13 losses this season. PK also handled Braunagel in the dual.

I agree but they seem to have great wins too. Even pinto they all get steaky both good snd bad streaks

Cruel and unusual punishment for Buchanan.

Totally agree if it was a realistic scenario. SB is an awesome dude.

A-fvcking-greed on all of the above.

Seeing Teemer makes me scared to take Elam. And i'm against bringing AJ in. Juice is not worth the squeeze, even if he wins 2 titles. Because when he explodes its going to cost people jobs.

And yes to Ben. There's just not enough time to get in shape if he goes back to football.

Are you talking due to injury risk regarding Elam? I know Teemer had an injury at ASU. Some types of injuries are more likely to resurface.

Agree with Ben unless football has him 260. Then he just needs to be in shape by mid March. I honestly think it's best if he chooses one or the other, but it's his life and his dreams, so I will be happy for him either way.

Correct on Elam. 7th year guy. Coming off injury. Does not portend well. These guys are old.

Yeah that's a legit concern then.

As far as I know that won't be determined till after the season, but I sure hope be sticks around.
