    IHSAA State Wrestling 2024

    Bingo. No one cares to talk about the trauma the victim went through during the event, after, and for the rest of his life.. Imagine being a freshman in HS.. Tiny things, in retrospect, felt like giant things to you as a HS kid..can't imagine what the victim went through with this (and will...

    IHSAA State Wrestling 2024

    We should just make State an open tournament then. If you sign up, you're a state qualifier. That is essentially what it is at some districts. Some weights at Districts have like 4 kids and 3 of them make it to State. kid with a 21-20 record at 106 or 113 in 1A has probably over half of those...

    We should give them all medals too, so everyone feels special.

    IHSAA State Wrestling 2024

    My main takeaway from State this year (past couple years actually, but specifically this year)...Iowa needs 1 class, 32 person brackets for each weight. One true state champ. I can accept an argument for 2 classes..but 3 is just way too many for Iowa. Especially 24 person brackets..kids with...

    2024-2025 Recruiting Thread

    My guess is someone takes a redshirt and beefs up to 165. I don't think CC is a big enough to be an effective 165. Agree though that we need 125, 197, and probably a 165 next year. Reminder, transfer portal can be a glorious thing to fill those holes. If you don't contribute to C&G Collective...

    2024-2025 Recruiting Thread

    Haha I'm well aware we have had a lot of good wrestlers. Been a hardcore ISU Wrestling fan my whole life. Chittum wasn't a win over Iowa in recruiting. Pretty sure we weren't in his top5 originally. Brands just chose a horrible family (Ferraris) over Cody, and we were the benefactor. AE was...

    2024-2025 Recruiting Thread

    Sucks Deluca is going to Iowa, really like him..and we need a good 125 recruit. I know Deluca came here for an official, but how close were we to actually landing him. Also, when (if ever) have we won a head-to head recruiting battle against Iowa?..

    Quite the opposite in my view. I would be more surprised to NOT see him there. I would be disappointed in our program and our staff to see us ostracize the kid instead of having his back through this. Sounds like he was a dumb kid and made a dumb decision and had dumb family members not looking...

    2024-2025 Recruiting Thread

    Why is it always such a secret who we are recruiting in wrestling compared to other sports? I get the limited scholarships thing but that is being discussed between athlete and other coaches anyways and wouldn't matter if being recruited is talked about on a random message board.

    @Tigerguy_ whats the 157 situation look like? How has Chittum looked against others in the room? Is Euton or Kraisser giving him a run for the starting job?

    Counter attacks are still attacks..dudes that are aggressive and finish will thrive IMO. I hate that you can (previously) take down someone 3 times and let them up and only be +3. Then the other wrestler starts down, gets out and scores a takedown and now its tied? I just don't like the ratio...

    Possible Rule Changes

    Also, I think the rule changes will be beneficial for our guys. AE/Paniro, Chittum, Casey, Carr, Yonger, etc.
