AS THE BIRD TURNS (IOWA STUFF)

[El-Jefe]

Vodka is nuts, MSU is just full of himself, he is knowledgeable, but has a problem with reality at times.

He's the poster child for Stockholm Syndrome. MSU fan but migrated to Iowa boards because Sparty.

He tries so hard to belong, and the moment he says anything even minimally out of line, they re-assert that he's not one of them.

 

[bourbon n blues]

Unfortunately they have been suck on the bridge between anger and denial for 15 years.

I've seen this with carious programs, the good ole days ain't now. Any big program has fans like this. you used to be top dog, now you're back in the pack and they can't grasp it. No one cars about your history any more.

For example, my son got me watching PSU wrestling. He had just gone out for it and Sanderson was just hired and bringing Taylor with him. Prior to that I'd just check out the results. Funny thing about "PSU fans think wrestling was invented 15 years ago crowd", that number is getting larger and larger.

My son isn't 14 now, he's 29 lolol.

I find it funny.

You're like the little sister telling on your older sibling for acting up. Mommy!!!

Hey Bird, over on bwi they are talking about you.

Real Woods, the 4th place finisher, was just named Iowa's Male Athlete of the Year. That sorta sums up the state of Iowa's athletic department.

I bet he’s more famous than their female aoty though… Oops.

Especially given that they had a 1st round draft choice

Regardless, I'm glad he got it. He seems like a pretty decent guy.

I would be thrilled to see Hawkeye 4th place finishers win their athlete of the year award every year.

Every so often their punter should win.

He was a national championship caliber wrestler until Iowa wrecked him.

Tom must have had the only vote!!

 

[Nitlion1986]

Wonder why a 4th place won over a national runner-up

 

[Split shot]

You do not go onto GIA for anything other than entertainment. Serious wrestling discussion is an extreme rarity, silly assed stupidity is a regularity.

To be able to appreciate the entertainment though you must first be able to process the PSU hate.

THIS^^^^^ 100%. Nothing more needs to be said!!

 

[Cstroke]

Not a bad finish, it’s a good thing when a wrestler does that from a basketball school.

Carious! That's priceless!

 

[tullfan68]

well the old iowa teams were still good for 3 points a match at most while the new PSU teams scores 8 12 15 points or pins in their matches which would you rather watch?

 

[KCLion]

Oops, I guess DeJean went 2nd round, my mistake.

 

[bourbon n blues]

Did not see that typo, lolol.

 

[Hotshoe]

Did not see that typo, lolol.

No, no, great word regarding Iowa. DECAY!

Not a bad finish, it’s a good thing when a wrestler does that from a women's basketball school.

FIFY

Questions for Willie The Brain

@smalls103 take a look at the U17 World Team and U15 Pan Am Team for USA. Obviously the U20 team kids isn't finalized and most would be committed already. How do we get some of those U17 studs at Iowa? And how do we get some of the U15 kids interested in Iowa since they are the next wave? I...

Love the idea that Willie could be a consultant for the big NIL money guy. If they’re alluding to Slumlord, maybe they need him to become much less of a loathesome prick and he could make more headway handing out his cash

You know I was snooping over there when that thread started, and I was like Willie will never set that precedent. I should have paid attention, it is like 6 pages long and he is answering questions left and right. Not surprising about Jax and Bo.

Two conflicted souls arguing over who fell in love with the Hawks first?
@98lberEating2Lunches and @MSU158 . LOL
