- Start date
NLWC with 6 going to worlds for the US - 5 guys (Lee, Zain, Snyder and 2 TBD), and Jen Page
Dude, go troll somewhere else. You really suck at it.
Bitter trolls are the worst. No entertainment value.
I understand the NLWC wanting to be the best it can be, but man it would suck if Nolf opts to look elsewhere so as to not be in the same room as Dake in the lead up to the Olympics

The Nolf deal is such a weird and must be very frustrating situation because he has the skill but Dake is just equally skilled as well as stronger and more athletic
Can Nolf wrestle for Germany or some shit? Dude like Myles Amine getting medals and Jason has to deal with the Great Wall of the Fingerlakes
Dake is on his own level up there. Makes wrestling Nolf look easy
I dont think Nolf practicing anywhere else is gonna change anything.
Why would he do that? What other RTC is going to better train him to beat Dake?
Plus, he now gets to train with Dake for the 3 months leading up to Worlds, plus for some time afterward until the coaches separate them.
Why bother with another Burroughs/Marstellar match? Just raise Jordan's hand and don't waste our time.
Maybe he can prove some English ancestry and get dual passports.
I really like watching Nolf, but Dake looked like he was wrestling one of his favorite nephews.
Dake is one of the all-time greats, yet some still only give him begrudging respect. Jason Nolf, who scores at will against most guys, couldn't sniff a point against him when he needed it. Of course, if a wrestler falls behind Dake, it's all but over. His defensive positioning, strength, and balance are second to none.

Not a matter of better coaching, but a matter of just not working with the same team that is also coaching your biggest (domestic rival).
And Nolf said in his interview that they don’t really go together all that often which I don’t think will change now.
Nick Lee is not a good wrestler. Doesn’t deserve to be in Final X. Was gifted every NCAA win he ever got. Objective Truth! Oh yeah, and Zain sucks even worse.

marsteller has been the better wrestler through 12 minutes. if burroughs wins match 3 he should absolutely take it to court.
Jason Nolf would leave because his coaches also coach somebody else?
This is Howard Eskin level Negadelphia.
Where would make sense for Jason? It's not Iowa, let's be real. Stylistically and middleweight coaching/partners wouldn't remotely move the needle. I doubt it's Penn RTC since JB is there at the same weight.
I can see Cal RTC if he wanted to give other clubs consideration. I know he considered going to Stanford at one point and Koll WAS the man who taught Dake what he knows.

@jrod65 there is a guy wrestling Greco at this weight named Spencer Woods. You should watch that match.
You don’t see how in a combat sport somebody might not want to train in the same place as their opponent before the biggest contest of their life?
I mean it very well may not happen but it’s hardly like that’s an insane take.

Brooks looks big out there. Don’t think 197 will be much of an issue next year.
good lord is AB qualified to give prostate exams?!
Yeah, sure, but match conditioning is also a bonifide tactic. Anyone can honk out a plug, so for the 3rd match, lets tape up his nose like they did with Zain's blood, and let them go the full time uninterupted.
He’s prolly still bitter JO failed to qualify the weight in Bulgaria.
That was more impressive from AB than winning NCAAs, the dude is almost beat Taylor there.
