    ***At North Carolina Dual Saturday @ 6PM***

    And how does one define peaking? Beating uni? Top 12 finish in St. Louis?

    Iowa State wrestling attempts to connect to the fight against Iowa

    Catching up on some posts, I see that they're having fun with "Downy Soft" on the Hawkeye board. Ironically, i also see this morning that Procter & Gamble is shifting its pitch for the product to Millennials who don't know what the product is for. So, I have to ask---what is Downyy for...

    NCAA Wrestling Tournament (Thursday-Saturday)

    The only good to come out of lelands match was that it allowed me to chant "fear the beard" toward the Hawks next section over after listening to fear the mullet yesterday. Gotta love the resurgence of zaddick.

    NCAA Wrestling Tournament (Thursday-Saturday)

    Wow. You are nuts if you didn't appreciate that pin. That was electric to all around the folks where I'm at. Even though Leland off to slow start, I don't think top 10 is out of reach.

    Oklahoma & OKlahoma State duals

    Deep thoughts: the td isn't there again, so how do I get him down to work the tilt? Ok I'll hurt my left lung...I mean leg, so he has choice down and then go to work. Or get majored. Whichever wow. Sit still. Otherwise you HAVE to start giving up 3rd period points because you will NEVER...

    I happy if judoka happy. So what fuels our next step forward-- 1) our last step forward? or 2) our last step backward?

    Arizona State Dual

    I don't think too many teams consistently do well over course of year and then lay eggs in March. I'd rather have a team i can stomach watching during the season, only to be disappointed on a four-day vacation in March. They wrestle good all year, then things should fall into place. You...

    Yikes

    sorry judoka. Not sure i buy it. I'm not saying the punch itself was that smart, but it is EXACTLY the attitude we need to see. Rather have a punch here and there along with attitude than NOT the attitude. We have been lacking fire in the belly consistency for years. Would be nice to have...

    CKJ has got to go!

    How much of the equation is mental? What is the role of the team psychologist? Sorry i missed the preseason banquet where some of this might have been addressed.

    Virginia Tech Dual on Saturday

    You spend all summer working for THIS? There is no silver lining. Somebody needs to work on the countdown clock in the room. We need more time.

    Pretty sure KJ has another year left on contract...

    No doubt this has been a painful season. This year was the most engaged i have been with fans and wrestling alumni (not all ISU) in a decade. I don't think I am exaggerating when i say folks out there actually feel SORRY for ISU wrestling fans. It is not a good feeling. The feelings of...

    NCAA first round matchups

    Starting to get stoked for a trip south and expecting a good showing from all our guys. Stopped by Lied this morning. Paulson was working with Moreno. He looked hungry. Urgency. Attitude. Bring it.

    Directionally Challenged

    I borrow from the greatest President of all time, WJ Clinton: "There is nothing wrong with ISU Wrestling that cannot be cured by what is right with ISU Wrestling." What do you think? How do you combat the naysayers of this storied program? Specifically, what is taking us down the road to...

    Nickerson Updates

    Just want to give a shout out to Troy Nickerson for giving his weekly? updates. I can't remember if I'm getting these as part of CWC or not, but if you are not a subscriber, i would suggest doing so. I've seen all the home meets and two away meets in person, and (although he is maybe a BIT of...
