I don't view them as the same, but I don't think there is a large gap right now. Lilledahl has all the high school and world team credentials, but he hasn't beaten any of the top guys at 125 yet. Out of the current Intermat top 10, he beat #8 Smith and lost to #10 Peterson. Arnold hasn't beaten anyone in the top 10 and his best wins are Smith, Ruth and Rogotzke this year and Wittlake, Feldkamp and Wolak last year. I would say Lilledahl has a higher upside, of course, but we will see how he fares against Ramos, Figueroa, Robinson and Spratley, if/when he gets a chance.

You are assuming Arnold gets better next year.
They are managing his load this year so I am assuming they must be wishing upon a star that if they don't grind him into bone dust he will somehow find a coach to help him get better.
can doesn't mean he will 2 or 3 points scored the other guy always has a chance!
And that he's wrestling at Iowa next year.
Arnold is probably watching the "development" of Turley and Poz at Rutgers and thinking "that's the place for me!". 🤣And that he's wrestling at Iowa next year.
"but he hasn't beaten any of the top guys at 125 yet. Out of the current Intermat top 10, he beat #8 Smith and lost to #10 Peterson. "
I said top guys, didn't put a number on it. Obviously, I was talking about the top 6.
Hey @johnstownsteel if I get a machine gun mindset shirt could you run over and get me an autograph?
ahahahaha, oh man that is theee softest 4points I've ever seen in Freestyle. Ryder did it to himself! What a silly roll. Oh, man I'm howling.
This link starts just before Ryder rolled himself to 4 for Arnold:
On here I have referred to it as the infamous "Get this bee off my back!!" roll match : )
Called it soon as rumors came out about Bos windfall. Iowa is paying up whether they like it or not. Whether he starts or not. Or he walks...
Jacob Warner made the finals and weighed a little more than 133.Oooh, ooooh oooh
Derek St. John.
2012 2nd place
2013 Champ
(good trivia!)
It's not obvious at all, because I've heard of top 40 lists, top twenty-fives, top tens and top 5's.
And Smith was Top 5 from weeks 2-8.

Tom is ill-equipped to handle situations like this.
He's pretty good at creating them.
Bob and the donors own him now...
Who runs Iowa's wrestling front office? Tom? Is Bob the de facto GM?
Lol. I don't know. Might eventually get tricky if dudes Bob is paying are sitting. I'm sure he'd want them on the mat. Those kids better get their money up front each season. Lol.
If it’s about $$ then why wouldn’t Angelo want to take 5 years of it rather than 4?
The kid wants to wrestle and not sit in favor of a kid who's ass he whips on a regular basis. Given the confrontation between the two before the 184 match at PSU, they probably can't stand each other.
Bob is Jerry Jones
I'm guessing it's a flat fee prorated either across 4 or 5 years.
And that's also assuming Angelo is getting his perceived market value (which was reset with Bo Bassett) and I have my doubts that he is
Id take this with a grain of salt. Willie also tweeted that AJ is Iowas 197er next year. I would think if AJ leaves Bakersfield they are going to wrestle together
Tom sends them to Terry, who then pretends to have rabies. It scares them back into submission.
It's a great day to be a hawkeye fan
Part Jerry Jones; part Daniel Snyder - all asshole
