swoopdown 620 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 The first post-ACL champion wrestler humanoid age has begun. Everyone was against his champion ACL's but he won anyway without them just to show them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Poopy butthole 307 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 He also said something along the lines of "I don't know what's next", I'm pretty sure, during the post match interview. I think there is a very realistic chance he doesn't participate in the trials. Heck, he also said he promised Marinelli he would win him a title. It's only fair that Alex return the favor. Could he possibly take a redshirt year to get surgery? 1 9insoft reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simple 296 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) Forget a redshirt. He should retire from college wrestling. If he doesn’t want to then he should wrestle the absolute minimum amount of matches he can Edited March 21, 2021 by simple Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
de4856 370 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) I saw the interview as well, and it is my feeling that Spencer will not be wrestling in Texas at the trials. My thought is that he will do whatever he needs to do medically to get ready for next season.

Sheerstress 168 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 If he's not planning on the OTTs, he should get the surgery done ASAP, and spend the next several months rehabbing. If he's not sufficiently recovered by fall, he could still do a medical redshirt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruocified 22 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 He can just take his regular redshirt. Crazy thought, but imagine if Spencer had taken a redshirt, then won a title, then took an Olympic redshirt. This season would be his sophomore year, but he'd still have three more years to compete. He'd be like Fix except capable of winning national titles and no steroids.

Cradle1 271 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 My question is how does one keep tearing ACLs when you’re spending 100 percent of time dominating people? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MadMardigain 1,596 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 I don’s see the story here. If a guy was able to accomplish a title without two triceps then we all knew it was possible to do it without two ACLs. 2 bnwtwg and powershouse reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He one upped Yianni winning on one torn acl by announcing that he had won on two torn acls. Still has a ways to go as I doubt he can match Robles winning on one LEG. 1 Jim L reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billyhoyle 2,472 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 I enjoyed it too, but never got to enjoy the "Spencer Lee has 1 ACL" era. He went straight from 2 to 0. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim L 326 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 Seems like he has nothing left to prove in NCAA wrestling, a hobbled Lee dominated. Who is going to challenge him in college? I would like to see him focus on international, get his par terre to the same level as his folkstyle tilts. Maybe do the Kyle Snyder route and show up for big tens and NCAAs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ludwigdmd 29 Report post Posted March 21, 2021 Sounds like a great idea to get the surgery now, take his RS next season, get healthy. Then he has choices. I can’t see him passing up another college season to cement his legacy and join the 4x champ club. Next Olympics is only 3 years away. He’ll still be a young man.

But if he’s still not 100% Arujua and/or Glory can probably “challenge” him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
