Here ya go. It’s a mixed bag interview where he said some nice things about chasing dreams, but he led off with this nugget: “It doesn’t matter if you’re way better than the guy you gotta wrestle, it’s still hard.” I'm sure we all said things when younger that we'd like a mulligan on.
Some guys like to “talk” to get up for matches… it is what it is. Personally, I was always a huge “walk up song” kinda guy to get myself pump. So much so that I don’t think walk up songs should be reserved for just sports. Lol.
She should be happy you didn't play Psycho Killer.
I thought it was a good interview. The way he said this I think he was saying from the first match to the last match it was not easy. Many wrestlers are way better than their first round opponents.
That comment is wide open for interpretation if one is so inclined.
Well of course. But like all communication, context matters.
Why is that the appropriate context for this one comment?
Particularly, you damn bunch of drunks.
Nobody had any issue with this (from Cenzo):
But I want to know who was the spy in our pod who told him we were drunk.
Still want to know who was the spy in our pod that told him we were drunk. Anne would bounce them out.
I think Cenzo and Carter have slightly different deliveries with their trash talk!Nobody had any issue with this (from Cenzo):
What college team or wrestler do you hate the most and why?
I try not to hate anybody, especially somebody I am competing against. Ohio State.

I remember that but read the article again because…well… because Cenzo. I’ll bet he’s fun to hang with. He’s hilarious!Nobody had any issue with this (from Cenzo):

Absolutely.
Maybe there was no spy. Are you sure Carter couldn't smell it from the mat?But I want to know who was the spy in our pod who told him we were drunk.

Agree. Having self-confidence is an absolute necessity for any successful competitor. But a quiet self-confidence is much preferable to one which feels the need to create a bulletin-board-full of material for opponents and / or make the speaker appear foolish when actions fail to back up words.The difference is, Bo was talking bold AFTER he won the title, pinning a guy who has his number his freshman year.
Hey Logan:
Raising your daughter doesn't mean quitting your job to go back to college.

Seven years of college down the drain.
This, that mentality is what drives them. It can't be taught. Carter has backed up "we're way better than Michigan", one day, he will back up that he's the best in the world.
I am hoping Barr finds himself this summer rolling around with whoever is available in Lorenzo or the M2 facility. I think that would provide a more drastic bump in his freshman development curve.
