I was being sarcastic. I actually see a better wrestler than one we saw a month ago. I'm proud of him...Actually, he does. Despite the losses and probable confidence issues as the season wore on, he still managed to pull off an upset and with a little tweak to finish some matches, he would have a nicer record.
And yes...may have qualified.
I get the same impression.Sometimes I think theres gotta be some "history" between Steveson and Cass. Gable wrestles him as if Cass is beneath him and he almost gives off the impression like look Cass, I'm going to beat you without even trying... lol
where did you see this?Sweet - Verk gets a medical forfeit and a trip to nationals. Sending 7 to the show
JB had it confirmed on the radio broadcast.where did you see this?
Lots of Iowa losses and bonus points.If PSU has 5 champs and Shak takes 3rd, can they win the Big Ten Title?
It is literally absurd... agree with you. A disgraceCan’t believe this isn’t on Tv
Yup. In particular, he was unable to secure a TD when in a good position at the end of the 2nd period. Then he was unable to get out for an extended time in the 3rd period, losing his considerable RT advantage. Then of course he gave up the winning TD late in the match. He wrestled okay and had his chances, but let it slip away.Meredith had three or four ways to win that match but, alas, did not
"DeSanto on the autism spectrum" is 100% message board rumor mongering and armchair psychology.My understanding is that DeSanto is on the autism spectrum. There are considerable variations between individuals who have some degree of autism. As the father of a fine young adult man with mild autism and mild retardation, I have had some experience and education concerning this condition.
I will say that individuals need to be held accountable for their actions (my son had difficulty with his temper when he was a teenager and was suspended from school twice), but I do tend to look at DeSanto with an extra degree of understanding (and even forgiving).

I think Verkleeren has to wrestle Yaya Thomas again (whom he lost to earlier). If he wins that, he goes to the 9th/10th match, which would automatically qualify him. But if he loses to Thomas, the only way he goes to the Big Show is an at-large bid.where did you see this?
+1 everything you said. Also, I recall hearing that DeSanto had said this is not the case.It was a rhetorical question. I have seen nothing that's publicly verified saying DeSanto is autistic. It's insulting to people with autism to call DeSanto autistic if he's not. If someone can provide me a link that DeSanto is autistic, I'll apologize. Regardless, the people calling DeSanto a pussy and bitch need to get a life.

One who beat him beforeWho impressed you the most today on the team? I've got to cast my vote for Aaron Brooks. Takes out two ranked wrestlers: one by major decision. One by fall.

Life has taught me that hyperbole is rarely accurate.It is acceptable to rip Desanto as he is literally the worst sport to ever step on a wrestling mat. Nothing he does shows good sportsmanship. From cartwheels to kimuras to fake injuries, everything he does on the mat shows his true character.
I had this same thought. It's like RBY is in DeSanto's head. ADS seems to wrestle skittish against RBY now.RBY has DeSanto confused
Pyles seems VERY upset that no stall call has been given. Is he DeSanto's cousin or something?
You realize that prior to joining Flo, Pyles was a huge Iowa fan, right?
The Russian coach who pulled out a gun on the mat a few years ago is relieved to know he's not the worst.It is acceptable to rip Desanto as he is literally the worst sport to ever step on a wrestling mat.

I want to congratulate Rutgers for locking up 12th place before 9pm. Best thing they did as hosts of the tournament.
Their fans are the best, though. Despite getting stomped on the mat, the ones behind us were able to laugh at Penn State wrestlers continuously and celebrate tremendously when Aguilar barely beat Meredith in the match to determine ninth place at 125 and which was announced before the match to have no team impact for the tourney. But congrats, your three time California finalist was able to beat a walk-on who had one fourth place finish in PA by a point.
Obsession
RBY wins 3-2
"DeSanto on the autism spectrum" is 100% message board rumor mongering and armchair psychology.
But if it gets repeated often enough, it becomes the truth whether real or not.
In any case, DeSanto's personality is a distraction. The story is RBY.
They found a way to not count a match RBY was winning 5-1 before it was stopped, right?My question is that...…..Since FLO announcers were constantly complaining about stalling not being called on RBY...….will they still rank Desanto above RBY because...…."we ignore results that don't agree with our wishes/predictions/opinions".
