Keck is really ****ing good. He just had an all timer in AB in front of him for many years. I’m happy for him.
His corner should have kept him in the loop.
I always took Carter as a free wheeling wrestler, but when he had to circle the wagons, I saw that he was as disciplined a tactician as we have ever had. He completely shut down any attempts to re-injure the knee while creating his own opportunities given his limitations.
Watching Mitchell’s interviews, I’m guessing he’s already moved on.
I guess I’ll try to do the same.

You really think our coaches weren't trying to let him know the situation?
Yeah, he's got a Mark Hall-level wrestling IQ
I was listening to Byers- did anyone else hear Burroughs comment about going for Carter’s knee at the Olympic trials?!

If Brooks wins the margin of victory will be 100 points. Incredible.
Feel absolutely gutted for MM. However, it is entirely his fault. Him, more than any other wrestler this year, wrestled the full 7 minutes of every single match (that went the distance). He picks the national finals to wrestle 6 minutes and 15 seconds. Definitely a learning experience. At the end of the day, he had to pay the Cael tax sooner or later. LOL!
I feel about him the same way I did when Nickal and Nolf lost.. you knew it was just the beginning...
Starocci as the next Iowa coach might be fun.
Kekeisen destroying the knee twister.. good.
BTW, Carter's match is a great example of how different college is from HS.
Welsh was a volume scorer in HS. High pace, very good technique, but also he overpowered a lot of guys.
This year everybody was stronger, or at least strong enough to neutralize his power -- including One-Legged Carter. And Welsh wrestled this entire tournament like Lewan: 4-2, 4-1 SV, 4-1 SV, 4-1 SV, 0-2.
It really makes you appreciate how good some of our true freshmen have been -- like Nico, Zain, Mark, Levi, etc., ... that they can wrestle at a high level and put up at least moderate scores.

Can he leave before Brooks’ match

Time to officially see off AB, let's hope he goes out on top!
I am. Your post reminds me of every college football fan on any given fall Saturday...the other team is holding every play and the refs won't call.
"Beckman doing the lord's work" was NOT on my Sat. night bingo card!
Parker is a good kid. Glad he won.
Every Division 1 program in Iowa has a champion this year. Except one.
A national TV audience heard it.
JB is done he needs to retire. And yes he said he's going after that bad knee lol what a turd
It was so nice of Burroughs to give away his strategy.
Carter and the coaches would probably plan for it anyway, still.
I’m having some Weller’s Antique 107 in his honor.
Couple of champs from Iowa schools, but no Hawkeyes….ouch.
He'll bench Gabe Arnold.
Man this is brutal, since Thursday I’ve been listening to Byers, so for the finals I go with the ESPN broadcast (for the guys at the firehouse). These guys just don’t shut up. Talking just to talk. Very little play by play, stories of when they wrestled. Terrible…
As far as I’m concerned, they can give the mic to Amine and Sparks.
Really enjoyed watching Plott get his butt kicked.
