gowrestle 697 Report post Posted January 17, 2019 I root for Rutgers and have enjoyed their rise. I am pulling for Ashnault to win a NC but I am having doubts about his chances. My hunch is a “toxic” environment is starting within the program as exhibited by last Sunday’s fiasco vs OSU. Fortunately my hunches have been wrong so hopefully 2019 will be historic for the Scarlet Knights. 1 tbert reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScarletKnight 82 Report post Posted January 17, 2019 I wouldn't worry. He's working hard, Rutgers is a tougher team than the others. The crowd likes it an they play to the crowd. He's already beaten 2 of the top 3 guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fiore50 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2019 define "toxic"? The fiasco was mainly due to the fix/suriano/ref confusion and delay. There was a little thing with Gfeller and Ashnault at the end but nothing major and they were fine during handshakes after the dual was over. He has never looked better than this year and this is by far his best chance to win it all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Housebuye 2,449 Report post Posted January 17, 2019 OSU is in real trouble. They have wrestlers shoving other wrestlers after matches. John Smith has lost control of his team. After last year’s performance, it is clear something bad is happening. See? I can make unreasonable assumptions and come to silly conclusions too!

No one on Rutgers can roll around and do those crazy acrobatic moves that someone like Nolf can do, but just a tougher, more physical bunch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJFAN 10 Report post Posted January 17, 2019 He looked good against Jordan and Gfeller. We should see an exciting match vs Kolodzik in a few weeks. Tough weight class though. 1 gowrestle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
