    Senior Season Results From Signed Recruits

    Thanks Buff. So this is overall, not just what they were ranked at their weight? Pretty impressive. I'm excited to see how this new group does.

    Senior Season Results From Signed Recruits

    Those are great additions. I would like to know where the current team members were ranked when they were recruited. I really am unaware, and thought it would be a good way to measure how these young men might be doing in a couple of years. Were there any that were ranked this high?

    Workout Wednesday

    Asked a simple question judo. Didn't insult at all. Would never insult the wrestlers on this team. It's a shame that you can't put your ISU skirt away once in awhile and quit insulting people that post anything contrary to what you think they should. I appreciate all of your mat side posts but...

    Workout Wednesday

    Anyone see a big difference between the workout Wednesday video if ISU and Illinois? Besides who has the nicer room?

    Finch to Grandview

    Hoping that he does well. Truth is, he was good enough to wrestle for ISU the past two years. Maybe didn't live up to hype, but his record isn't too bad. Also heard somewhere that he competed all of last season with a hernia that wasn't repaired correctly the season before.

    Destin McCauley to Nebraska

    Didnt seem like sarcasm. Thought it was rather refreshing.

    Destin McCauley to Nebraska

    I seriously can't blame him. I know he changed his mind but guaranteed if he would have chosen ISU, half of you would be fighting eachother to get an autograph.. He's a talented kid, and he passed on a struggling team. Im with Howell "good for him."

    JUDOKA BLOG: Big 12 Championships Preview

    Wasnt ISU's schedule much more tuff last year? Although there is apparent growth, its hard to say how much. Nationals should be the indicator.

    Can't be much fun for the wrestlers

    without a quality coach the wrestlers won't do well either. Funny thing, I think ISU's new motto should be, "the place where you can send a talented hard working wrestlers, break them down until they question their desire and abilities.. the end."

    Will ISU even score today against Iowa?

    I think Jackson has had some good recruits and has actually taken them backwards. I have yet to hear him say that he has taken things in the wrong direction. I think that Varner and Reader were just lucky that they weren't with him long enough to kill their chances. If you looked at the...

    Will ISU even score today against Iowa?

    tuff night. Our one win, didn't even look like a win. This team has some great young men, that really could be developed, but it's not happening. A coach getting down on these young men, when there's poor coaching really doesn't make sense. Glad people on here are focusing on the problem being...

    Rumor going around in StL

    Sorry Meeksfam, is there any way we can all get our posts approved by you before we post them, since you're the expert? I will tell you that it's admirable for you to be supportive of your sons "possible" future coaches, but have you observed the light weights this year? Has coach Washington...

    Terry Brands

    I guess I'm using their baseline of prior performance. These weren't brand new wrestlers. They wrestled at high levels. When I see a freshman like Nico Megaludis do what he did at NCAA's and I see that we had the same if not better quality guys coming in, and regressing after spending 2 years...
