@kyledake444 has never wrestled in the Midlands either! I wonder if this new news will bring him back! Make #Midlands2015 like the old days!

Wouldn't surprise me, Dake likes to chase David around, except on the mat where he backs up .
Maybe Gadson could go there to challenge Taylor. Ames isn't all that far away, and apparently he has time on his hands.
This will be interesting to see how fast he techs people with the new 4 point near fall rules.....
Guy has done jack since he graduated college so I guess I can understand why he's pining for the "old days".
I've read he has been hitting buffets all over Ames. He knows he can't make the weight, so invite somebody else to wrestle. What a man...
Gadson just finished 3rd at Senior Nationals teching Kilgore in the 3rd place match.
Come on FT, NoVa Lion said all that needs to be said RE: Gadson.
Obviously FT was having fun with Gadson who likes to play on his cute little Twitter account.
Seriously JB, Gadson should be able to make whatever snide remark he wants without a response? This is from the same camp that was mouthing off, trying to diminish Snyder when they made the announcement he was going to start competing freestyle. Looked how that worked out. Maybe he should worry about his own wrestling because 3rd without Snyder, Varner and Bergman in the bracket isn't exactly note worthy. Yea he beat Kilgore but finished behind (UR) Schiller and (#10) Michalak.

Someone likes to read WAAAAAY too much into things. Very few of us know the personal relationships between those guys to try to make some comment pro or con to their intent. I know many of these guys poke fun at each other on twitter by hitting near the belt.
Just my two cents. Might be worth three, depending on the exchange rate.

So this leads to another point that made (in my opinion) the entire response unnecessary.
If you're going to take exception to it, why wouldn't you take that comment right to Mr. Gadson vs. the sanctuary of other Penn State fans. If you care so deeply about his response, why not say something to him?
Or are you just going to complain about his comments in places you know he won't read or respond to them?

JB, what planet do you live on? It's social media, he put that comment out for the world to see instead of making it in private. Are you really trying to tell me that he wouldn't expect this to be discussed (and criticized) on a Penn State board. Seriously, that's a ridiculous statement by you.
Basically, you can't take being trolled back is what you're saying.
You'd never man up and post that on social media for the world to see, you'd rather be protected in the sanctuary of this board.
Trying to justify him "not doing jack" when that's a complete falsehood. None of us on this board could have done what he did this weekend. You make it seem so easy to place third in an Olympic qualifier with multiple All-Americans.
You won't have the protection you have here and the freedom to trash athletes out in the open like you think you can do here.
I like you for the most part, but this is just straight smug angst.
But I'm done on this. No point in arguing over something that's in the grand scheme of things, super pointless.
Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you also JB and to all the BWI crew.
Yes kids and be extra safe and embrace the season. Here are some video's to help:
Andrew Long is wrestling Midlands, too. It'll be interesting watching things unfold at 141, which looks stacked.

Great pics
Brian, very nice of you to give Jammen his new profile pic for Christmas!
This board sends me down more internet k-holes than anything on the web, with it's obscure references to comedy.
Agreed. I haven't been able to understand the point of any of the posts in this thread after my previous post regarding Gadson finishing 3rd at Senior Nationals. I only even knew he did that because his name jumped out at me as I didn't think he planned on competing in freestyle.
Nova...he announced it this summer. I think this was his first competition...not a bad first outing.
Idk if anybody else mentioned it already and I'm just behind but I thought this was interesting, maybr won't just be Taylor and Long going.
@that_dude_JO: squad8wrestling headed to midlands. Gonna be my first time at this tournamemt.... man am I… https://t.co/sBdJAH2IJG
In Oliver's comments he's still debating if he's wrestling or not

In that back and forth, his last comment is that his folk days are over...not sure that cements it but my take is that he's just going as a spectator.
Just to play devil's advocate: I know there are some style differences on feet, but the primary difference between free vs. folk is mat wrestling -- which Oliver could conceivably avoid altogether by scoring all takedowns, cutting immediately afterward, and always choosing neutral.
I don't think he'll do it either, but he could do a lot worse than Midlands for some live work against somebody other than the usual suspects.

I think it would be a great chance for Oliver to get back to his offense. I don't remember where I read it but he said he got away from his style of wrestling on his feet and he wanted to go back to it. Wrestling different people at Midlands would help like you said. He was always fun to watch in college, especially in neutral
