UNI Open

Rocky probably wrestled him from youth to HS several times. The big question with julien is if he has developed leg attacks. He is a good thrower but as we’ve seen from throwers they can struggle with guys who defend that well.
Julien beat Johnson from UNI. Barely. Got taken down at the very end but ref said time went out. Schwab was not pleased. Not a lot of attacks but a ton of time spent in weird looking scrambles at times. Julien looked like the smaller guy in both matches.
 
Johnson won 8-4 over roberts MN. Took him down 3 times in the first then took the foot off the gas. Got rode the entire 3rd.
 
Should be some decent competition for Broderson to work back into things.

Ayala vs McKee we will see where Ayala is at. I expect him to win that match, and win it fairly comfortably.
McKee won, I have yet to watch the match.
 
Judge kept the match with Kennedy a lot closer this time, which is nice to see.
 
I think it was McKee agains that kid from Illinois. That was a wild match.
 
What did we learn, if anything, at 165?

Judge beat Stotts in OT
Stotts beat Schmidt in OT

Judge and Schmidt both beat McClimon; Schmidt by major
Judge and Stotts both beat Even; Stotts by major
Judge and Stotts both lost to Kennedy; Judge by dec, Stotts by TF

So nothing , really
 
Judge I think had a slightly better ability to keep matches close vs a guy whose better than him. Therefore, in duals. That is an asset. He battled Kennedy who was clearly a guy you don’t want to let get loose on you.
 
Anyone know what’s going on with Schon and Greenlee? I know they are gray shirts like Paniro but why haven’t they wrestled? Same deal with Helgeson.

And why I’m asking questions, can anyone explain the rationale to gray shirt 2 guys at the same weight in the same class (Schon/Greenlee). I thought Schon was doing off injury so I get that.

Schon and Helgeson are rehabbing injuries I’m pretty sure. Doubt we see them much this year. Not sure why we haven’t seen Greenlee yet

Maybe money. If they got promised money, they may need a wrestler to graduate to free up cash. Maybe they didn’t expect Degan or Parker to return and that ate up cash.
 
I’m sure they both got promised some money. Schon certainly didn’t come here for free. Gray shirts don’t get any money during their season but that is no reason not to wrestle opens ala Paniro.
 
Schon had an ACL repaired after his high school career ended I believe. I would imagine he’s not competing at all this year while working back from that.
 
Schon is still limping…what is your point.
If he is still limping, that is probably a permanent limp. Sons doctor (ISUs Warme, and his athletico physical trainer) told him if they didn’t get rid of his limp within weeks of having the brace off for day to day stuff, he would have a limp forever. He rarely limps, but others that we know that went elsewhere still do years later.
