133 Prediction
- Thread starter jschrantz
- Start date
Doesn't this contradict what you were advising earlier? Recruits are supposed to pick up every coach's phone call and "just say no" instead of essentially putting themselves on a "no call list" to not be bothered, but you don't pick up the phone when you don't know the caller because you don't want to be bothered. Any consistency there at all?
With Nagao saying his decision will be late April, gotta think Cannon's will also be around then, unless he chooses a school that Nagao isn't also considering.
Just listened.
My bias is implicit, but given Aaron’s goals and personality, I’m starting to get excited!

This kid is way more mature beyond his years I didn't expect to hear anything like that. Encouraging
Great school, but they do have a national champ at 133 who has one more year left.

IRONBIRD protesting Basch for promoting PSU LMAO and trying to argue they have the better room
Spencer does not practice with the college guys, especially someone who will be aggressive like Nagao
ADS hasn't beaten RBY since 2019
Lee > Woods
We also have Zain who will work with him on mastering that bow he hit Philippi with
I think us having an actual ATT gym in State College and being affiliated with Treigning Lab (Nagao is an athlete) is more meaningful to his MMA career than some UFC sponsorship that seems to be more designed just for Bella Mir and sponsoring Soldier Salute

If he is looking for individual championships why would he go to Iowa? The way he talks about God and his goals it seems to me PSU would be the place he fits in the best.
I took the interview as a total positive. Feel good about this one, but one never knows. 3 full years would be perfect.
I'm not sure if there is anything to it subconsciously but he ordered the school as 1-Cornell, 2-PSU and 3 Iowa. If he's going for individual goals Cornell and PSU would seem the better options. Sounds like he reads the forums as well. Hopefully ironturd helps us out with all his rants lmfao
After listening to this interview, I will be very surprised if Aaron doesn’t select PSU. It’s a perfect fit both ways.
Shout out to JTS for getting things rolling with your prolific bromance with Aaron throughout the season. Reminiscent of a previous relationship between an Ant that was enticed by a piece of pie. That turned out pretty well. 😉
Tiger is still the best Woods.
The faith aspect can't be under appreciated.
Great interview. Hope he comes to Penn State, but no matter where he wrestles next year. I’m confident it will be the right place for him after watching that. Impressive young man.
There are billions of people on earth who make countless life and death decisions on a daily basis. Isn't it a bit preposterous to think a supreme being has a plan as to where a 20 year old pursues his wrestling career or that the supreme being actually cares? Isn't this what free will is all about?
Don’t matter to me if u down with the G-O-D or not, just give us a stud 133 for the next 3 years
Somebody needs to watch Aaron Brooks post championship interview from last month
I'm not here to debate faith, not even a little. My post was about a strong correlation with what Aaron sounds like he's all about and what most of our most successful athletes and coaches profess to be all about. Seems like a perfect match to me.
Haven’t listened to interview yet. So you say he reads the forums huh? Wonder if he knows one of his biggest fans already pulls for his next team?
You should tell Ironturd and the rest of them there that I’ve been recruiting Aaron since last fall. I love the hate…. Ha
What a quality kid and what a story. The Hawks can have the Ferarri's, this is the kind of charachter that we have built our team on for the past decade. To my knowledge, PSU is the only team that consistently integrates faith into the overall theme of the program. Perfect fit is an understatement. Everything happens for a reason.
Yes it is and they are not the same. There are plenty of coaches who have a plan for young wrestlers and where they pursue their wrestling careers. Just because the kid makes a choice doesn't mean he doesn't have free will. He followed a course directed by someone he respected. Same thing with a higher power with some minor detail issues lol
How long before starts to use Minnesota logic? Penn State and Iowa have combined to win 14 of the past 15 championships. Or maybe, in the past decade Iowa has finished 2nd twice as often as PSU!
How does Cael visiting Cannon affect Nagao's situation? Would Cael recruit over Cannon with Nagao now that he is in the portal??
Billions of people aren't asking God this specific question, he is. So he's putting it out there and asking. Now we can quibble abpout what that means, but he seems to like this process. It's no different than meditating on this, thinking it over, or going with your guy imo. He's articulating the question to help him make the decision.
Just my suspicion only, but above all wants kids who want to be here. I also don't think he issues guarantees in the form of a promise to start. That has to be earned. If Cael possess one trait it's integrity. He would never take in one kid when courting another at the same time who is better without full disclosure.
I bet Cael has informed Cannon of an interest in meeting with Nagao and has told Chris to take his time and meet with all of the programs for which he has an interest. Chris is a one year opportunity while Aaron three. If Nagao goes elsewhere Chris will likely pick PSU, but I tend to doubt that is how this plays out.
This should all be settled in a couple of weeks.
No doubt in my mind Nagao is a much better fit at PSU for both parties and it will happen. Hearing his interview was as of he had been here for years already. His priorities, temperament, faith and dedication all align perfectly with Cael's model.
At this point I would be suprised if Cannon announces first, unless these questions have all been settled behind the scenes. One would think Nagao will be pursued by the very same programs that have expressed an interest in Chris, so the threat of Chris going somewhere only to get bumped should be a consistent concern.
No doubt Cannon will still be a great get for whomever secures his talents.
no just on here!I dont think iowa likes me much!
I believe Cannon has 2 years of eligibility, at least according to wrestlestat.
