All Star Classic - Sat, Nov 16

Announcers just mentioned that Illini Zac Braunagel in his 7th year. What? That's too long, sorry.

Carter going for his 5th title......has he even been at PSU that long?
Next shoe to fall will be unlimited eligibility. In school? Can play. Look for that ruling soon enough.
 
Why are they holding this event at Rec Hall? I thought they could fill Bryce Jordan for an event of this caliber.
 
And we are again reminded of Quentin Wright's observation that the deadlift has no causation and little correlation with the ability to get out of bottom and we can add getting takedowns as well.

It's unfortunate for Feldman there isn't a 220/225 weight class-not Kyle Snyder 2.0.
