The 9.9 argument is absolutely hilarious coming from PSU fans..

jp157 got a reaction from Housebuye in Qualifiers by STATE
Ohio does .. and placing top 8 in two divisions in a state with more programs that any other 3 states combined won’t water it down. additionally, if one cares about purity. Go play with the big boys nationally.
Smaller programs having relative success helps builds numbers and depth. Gives kids more exposure. Even Ben Askren talked about how many deserving California kids were passed over by Arizona kids who had better “on paper resumes” when he was a coach at ASU.
The state tournaments and scholastic wrestling should be used to grow the sport and provide opportunities for relative success for big and small teams. If one wants prestige or to brag about purity, they should go to Reno, Fargo and Super32

California is a classic example of how only having one division actually hurts their ability to get more of their high level kids exposed and the accompanying opportunities

Hey @Jaroslav Hasek Flo needs to borrow an idea from the NFL network and do a 2-3 episode series of the Brands mic'd up at NCAA's. They're entertainment gold. You guys are sitting on an instant hit.

Loser leaves town. If Zahid beats PD3 at the 2021 Trials, then you never post on this message board again. No creating new screen names. If PD3 beats Zahid at the 2021 Trials, then I'll never post on this message board again. If they don't hit at the 2021 Trials, then it's a push.

Most of the people most vocally critical will still overpay for clinics by him. Lol. He’ll also walk into any coaching gig he wants.

But that’s ok, he’s not Iowa and since OSU isn’t a threat to Penn States chances this year..it’s totally fine. It’s only bad because Iowa is doing it

Good question. I sort of get it if he rather play the role he is playing. I certainly would NOT want to be a CEO of a big company, but am okay with the leadership position I do play in the organization.

I’m willing to bet Heffernan, Medlin and Hunter are all disappointed with how the tournament went.

jp157 reacted to BAC in Wow - Ohio State, IL, & WI
The defense of Illinois’ performance is pretty amusing. Out of their 10 wrestlers, ZERO outperformed his seed, and only ONE guy seeded in the top 10 wrestled to his seed. That is an abject disaster.
Of the 9 others, the 5 who were seeded in the top 10 all placed below their seed, and the remaining 4 who were seeded outside the top 10 all failed to place in the top 10.
That is a calamitous performance by any measure.
Was there even ONE match where an Illinois guy beat a guy who was seeded better than him? I can’t think of one.
Hope they can get it together for Nationals.

Incoming TBar post about how it's not a big deal that Cass blanked Kerk 9-0, everybody expected that, and that if he didn't thrash him that would be a huge letdown for Iowa.

Michigan State in 5th place with no finalists.. I’ve been the first to give them crap but credit must be given where credit is due. Hell of a tournament.
Relative to where they were it’s miraculous
