Dare you to go on to HR and post that ' Nobody does it better than Cael, PSU is 24-1 in semifinal matches since 2016'. That will throw Vodka into a meltdown!
I agree with this. With Olympic trials coming up this summer a lot of guys will be reevaluating their future in the fall ... especially those who could be coming back for 6th or 7th year.
I'm sure most of these 23-25 year old young men have a significant other who might like to get on with life after college and a reliable source 0f income.
You only get to play for so long and then they make you grow up and be an adult. There are a lot of fun things involved with being an adult. However, once you are done playing, unless you are Gronk and Brady invites you back into the sandbox, they don't let you go back.
Paraphrasing Joe Montana's advice to Brady play as long as they let you. 40 years after you are done playing you will still be wishing you would have played longer.
While not guaranteed, Warner probably wrestles back to consci semi-finals. So not much difference.
Talent wise yes. But an opening round loss has a way of getting in a guys head.
Especially warner who has at times has seemed to let the outside noise affect him inside the circle
My wife asked why there was blood coming out his nose during the interview. I told her his ego kicked his ass
I don't see this as apples to apples. Cronk, Brady et al are making good money while having fun at the same time. I doubt Montana would be advising Brady to stay in college a 6th or 7th year for the fun of it.
If wrestling is your passion there are also ways to continue the fun and make money ... it means moving on from college though.

And you have to stop laying this woulda, coulda, shoulda on the shoulders of a 19 year old wrestler that surpassed his seed by at least 7 spots, earning All-American honors when very few expected it based on his draw. Wrestling is a team sport with an underlying individual component. Overall the guys performed super well, and still have some work to do. WE ARE!
Cassar, as a light heavy, did not have that much trouble getting out from bottom the year he won his title. I saw him ridden as a 197 pounder, and really thought it would be his Achilles heal up a weight class. I know the coaches worked very hard on this aspect of his game, and it paid off. I can't remember a single bout in the 2019 season where him being ridden was a factor. It can be attributed to great coaching.
Then again...maybe he’s dejected and goes 0-2, brings the rest of the Hawks down and a downward spiral of ass-clenching losses takes them down to 5th.
True, but at NCAAs that first consci match is in the next round. Time to emotionally recover and mentally reset.
If the ref does not interject himself into the match and overturn the final outcome at Brands' demand and Warner does a Murin and all else remains the same it is Iowa 100.5 and PSU 94.5. HR is in meltdown with 8 threads calling for the Brands' heads and 3 more demanding the next time Penn State travels to Iowa City Cael be arrested.
My better half said “Must be nice for someone to love somebody like he loves himself” guess have some work to do on the backside this afternoon.
Don't want to be a party pooper, but forget the team title. If we win all six matches by regular decision, Iowa could lose everything until the final match of the tournament (they are starting at 133), and a regular decision for Spencer wins the team title. Let's win those six matches!
We have 26 wins so far: 12 decisions, 10 MD, and 4 Tech Falls (all in Champ 1 round). We haven't recorded any of the tournament's 70 pins yet, so tonight would be a great time for our first! Preferably Nick and Starocci.

The announcer just said DeSanto could wrestle all day. He doesn't drink, doesn't party. He doesn't go to the mall. Wait... what? He doesn't go to the mall? Get outta town!! Man, if only I could stay away from the mall I could be an all American too!
Well, good. Now I can root for D3 product Myers with the added bonus of him wrestling one of the bad guys.
What a 1985 frame of reference. Doesn’t he know kids these days are all doing the PlayBox internet stuff?
Is it so hard to shake hands, Austin? What a tool.
Yahya Thomas making Bartlett look even better by the minute. Beau is likely at least round of 16 if he gets in this tourney this year.
Desanto's Tech Fall means six wins by regular decision for us still brings us up short.
Looks like Oklahoma State is likely to take second place when this is over.
