I think he may as a measuing stick but no way he really thinks hes coming within 10
Iowa vs Minnesota

I feel bad for PK having to take the wrath if Gabe sits!
Ok, that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be called out and ridiculed, though, when they can’t back up their bravado.
So Gabe ran his mouth about Starocci then couldn’t even beat out the JV 165 for a shot at him? Wow, how embarrassing.
First, he may still wrestle Starocci. Second, I don’t think Gabe reads this board so not sure how anyone is calling him out.
Do you guys have a poll for worst post of the year? If so, I nominate this one.
In a season where we are lacking any potential for a team race at Big Tens or NCAA’s, stuff like Arnold calling out Starocci is necessary to have anything worthwhile to talk about. I’m glad he did it, even if it results in him getting squished.
Pisses me off how aj messed it up this year. I forgot all about the uncle.
ok, what lens would you like to view Iowa through on a Penn State board?
We can celebrate their successes more? If we did that we’d basically be the most condescending and arrogant group of people on Earth. That would look a lot like pity. Prefer that?
TBH there weren’t many good performances to choose from.
Upsetting 2nd rank wrestler
Worst post of the year? If we nominated people for that you & Ironturd would fill up the entire list.
Well, if we did, ironburd already has that wrapped up.
No money in feeling sorry for the hawks. In this economy there’s no way I could afford to give up my PAID IOWA HATER gig to be a broke IOWA PITIER no matter how much it hurts me to see them struggle.
You should view them through the same lens as Ohio St and Michigan. Yet Iowa is dissected and discussed 100 times more than either program. Why is that? This is a serious question. I really want to know the difference between Iowa and the other top 5 or 6 programs.
I agree with you. F@$$, if there was social media when I was in high school...
Hopefully, the match happens.
Oh yes! I thought we were talking about Iowa, but you are right. Minny guy at 157 was the OW.
Well, you have to post someone else's comeback, because you can't seem to come up with anything witty on your own.
Credit to Madden tho...the only hawk with the sack to post on our board.
Arrogance? Entitlement? History?
@jmadden1998 is a good poster. @js8793 and @jrod65 also frequent this board. I appreciate their perspectives. @WildTurk is an asshat.
But i read on here all the time that no one cares about any national titles more than 20 years ago. So it’s the fan base?
I believe @sstark46 is as well and a good poster.
Levi will go for the gusto with legs and arms in tow. If he manages that, he should win comfortably.
We talked about Ohio State a lot when they were relevant.
One big difference with Iowa is the off-the-mat entertainment. Ryan has some of that too, but he's just one man.
There seem to be lots of good Iowa posters on this site. I think @WildTurk has some pretty good posts too, but there are some questionable ones, as well. Lol. Who said @Madden1998 isn't a good poster? But, if he wants to give it out, then he should expect to take some in return too. It's all in good fun. Isn't that what this is all about?
Oh, for sure the back and forth is part of the game. I was just adding Hawk fans that contribute to this board to @Psubiomed 's post. Thanks to @PAgeologist for citing stark. I'm sure I'm missing others as well. As for Turk, well, questionable is one way to put it.
Okay, maybe offensive is a better word choice than questionable. Lol.
Go back and read HR Cael’s first year at Penn State.
Or this:

I can really only speak for my own perceptions, and if I’m being honest, the former dynasty element and still the most consistent threat recently(last ~15 years) has a lot to do with it. Fan base yeah, but that’s unique to each individual’s encounters. Some of the HR writers’ reports around 2010 about Cael, Iowa State, and PSU epitomize my characterization of the general Iowa fan. Think that’s definitely changed to the present, but it’s there.
My cousin wrestled for Iowa for a couple years, last year was the cancelled virus season. Was a “room guy”. He told me some cool stories about some of the bigger names during the time which helped me empathize a bit with the human side of things. I still just can’t imagine not having significant resentment for Iowa, though. Probably a personal issue at this point lol
