Hawks v Goofers today at noon on BTN

He's a classless punk with a few screws loose.

I'd like to see Gilman try his crap with a Nashon Garrett or Tony Ramos.

Gilman would get launched into the stands.
You think Garrett and Ramos could launch Gilman into the stands? Interesting
 
If I was his coach, I'd launch Gilman to the locker room. Cool his ass down.

His punk antics have no place in the sport.

Dominate your opponent, but also respect him.

Wrestling is a microcosm of life, and Brands is missing many teaching opportunities by allowing that wild man to run free.

Question: Would you hire Gilman to be a coach or work in your office ? Hell no. I'd throw his resume in the trash can if it ever landed on my desk.
 
We get it digger. You dont like Gilman. You want him launched into the stands, into the locker room maybe even Lake Wallenpaupak! We will see if Gilman can back it up against a pretty game Lizak. Cant wait!

He can become a smoke detector salesman, or live out of a van for several years like some of the other grads.
 
Kemerer looked real good there against Short. Not sure who can beat him this year other then Nolf.
I haven't seen anybody at 157 who I think has any chance of keeping Kemerer from wrestling Nolf in the 157 finals.

If Clark doesn't make the finals at 133 Iowa could have 3 finalists, all wrestling Penn State kids.

And, like last year, losing all three without scoring an offensive point. ;)

I coached junior high wrestling. I can guarantee you if one of my wrestlers acted like Gilman, he would be sitting out matches until he got my message. If he never got the message, he wouldn't wrestle again.
 
Nice to see Kroells keeping alive the tradition of extremely boring Minnesota heavyweights.

I don't recall, did Gilman run his mouth and behave this way in prior years? I remember him being somewhat confident but this behavior of his seemed to be missing. If so, I'm wondering why. Could it have been that he knew there was a very good possibility he couldn't completely back up his talk? I'm thinking he's the quintessential bully.... Run your mouth and act tough only when you think you won't have someone eventually shut you up. I hope Nick finds a way to shut him up in a big way...see a temper tandrum at the podium and send him out as a 0 time national champion.

These kids can't wrestle forever.

After he makes a run at freestyle, and his body breaks down, I'm sure he can always find a job in Iowa City as bar bouncer or a oil change technician at Jiffy Lube.
 
After graduation, I hope Gilman brings his punk schtick to the US Senior Men's freestyle circuit.

I'll laugh when he gets his ass kicked.

I agree, but he only acts like this when he's going up against a kid that he knows he will beat. Notice that he hasn't acted like that against a PSU wrestler. The kid just tried too hard to be a bad ass.

Just realizing that by 1/2 time, the Gophers had a cumulative 12 points worth of scoring to their credit, mostly escapes. And I honestly wasnt sure it was indeed 1/2 time with that game they were playing - crawling around the mat looked very similar to the wrestling.
