While I agree, none of us truly know how serious this concussion issue is, and we shouldn't know either. Keep that in house. I hope he is back this year, but just not planning on it. Getting him in the lineup will be an unexpected bonus at this point for me. -

Carr: He is a Junior world champ and has accolades like crazy. Flo was just waiting to have a folkstyle reason to put him top 3, and they have that now. Young, based off 2 wins at end of the season, should be over Diekin. Carr should be above Young. Rankings, at the current moment, are fun but... -

From the Dresser interview on Flo, Gomez may not be available all season. I do not expect to see him in Vegas. Or at Scuffle. Very huge weekend for 125,141,149,157 and 184. I touched on 157 only as Carr is now ranked #2 on Flo. He is the legit shot at a finalist and champ. CKLV will tell a lot... -

ISU vs Iowa
They kept wrestling because the head ref didn't see it. They let the position finish out, then went back to review. The assistant ref called the locked hands. The RT was a mistake if he was able to keep it. -

Degen locked hands at the beginning of the exchange. Because of this, all his points after that are negated. Even if they had called a pin, they would have gone back and changed it all due to the locked hands. -

Didn't see this before I posted. I agree there. I think it was a mismanagement of strategy. -

In the tiebreaker, Colbray escaped to make it 2-1, got taken down (3-2) then got the escape (3-3). Riding time doesn't come into play until the next portion of TB. Could he have not ridden him out, and gone to the next OT tied at 3? I may be missing something, but 3-3 takes it to the next SV... -

Mackall -- C. He put the effort in, but he is just far over-matched. Lee is the best 1st period wrestler in the history of NCAA wrestling. You saw that today. Small -- C. Again, effort was fine, just not close to DeSanto. He stayed in it after being down 6. Parker -- A-. I just like his... -

Turk weighed in at 148.5 for the Luther Open last week. He could be a possible option with an injured Murin, but not this weekend. It would be Happel if not DeSanto bumping up or Murin. -

What's with the ducking talk? Brands isn't going to have Wilcke "duck" Colbray. Makes zero sense. They wrestled Brands last weekend as well. I don't think they were ducking the Chattanooga wrestler. If he doesn't wrestle this weekend, then there is another reason. At 133/141, their best line... -

I think Mackall is ranked where he is based off last season plus his tech of Schwarm from UNI. Coming into the season, Schwarm was top 10 on Flo. If ISU gets their choice for starting point, do not go 165, regardless of having Carr last. 165/174 are the two biggest mis-matches of this entire... -

I don't think Brands was trying to fool anybody with his lineup, nor has he in the past. I think they were more just trying to get Teasdale more matches than a single dual, which could have been the case with Wilcke. I am not too concerned with a "mild concussion" with Gomez. Hold him out for... -

Isn't it a combination of weight and concussion? I know the weight issue came about before any concussion talk occurred. Doesn't matter if he is available right now. He just needs to get himself fully back and ready for the season. Get the weight under control and make sure all concussion... -

I don't think it is depressing or anything that Iowa is going to win the dual going away. ISU still has BIG opportunities in this dual. Parker vs Desanto, Degan vs Lugo, Carr vs Young, and Colbray vs Wilcke are HUGE for end of the year seedings. So I am not concerned with the overall team score... -

I think 141 is a toss up. Wouldn't surprise me either way. The thing hurting ISU in this dual is Gomez being absent. Otherwise, there would be a possibility (not a big possibility but still there) of a 5/5 split. Iowa would still win going away based off bonus points, but would still make for... -

125: Lee MD. As mentioned by OP, he will jump out to a big lead and then the rest of the match will be about even. 133: Glynn/Teasdale dec. I had some expectation for Small's abilities to beat Glynn, but after yesterday's dual, those expectations fell off. 141: DeSanto dec. Parker is tough... -

Big 12 Wrestling Touney Thread
May not work out for them, but Smith won 2 straight matches against Rogers to win the spot. Has nothing to do with his dad being the coach. 1-on-1 and Smith won the spot. Rogers being with the team at the tournament shows how much he enjoys the team. Why wouldn't someone want to wrestle for... -

UNI dual predictions
125 -- Only issue is he needed to go to a different attack late. Needed to go with a different set-up or different angle or just different leg attack all together. 133 -- Did what he was supposed to do. 141 -- Great match. Those two both battle. Saw the shot from the outside coming. Parker will... -

Degen: I think you see improvements in the techniques he uses. He is never going to be the solid, basics-style wrestler. He has some good wins, a couple losses maybe he wishes he could take back, but overall will be in the hunt for a top-12 finish again. Willie is wrestling well. I think his...
