Michigan match thread - Fri, Jan 19

Shit! According to track, no Gomez, Star or Kasak

 

[mcpat]

No Carter?!?!

In the days before the internet, Iowa Public Television was the go-to for wrestling. They covered not only Iowa, Iowa State, UNI but also national events like National Duals. They also sold VHS tapes of a lot of events. Gibbons and Johnson were the announcers for IPTv. I wouldn't say they are dinosaurs, but the new order has to be shocking to them.

Other than IPTv, Channel 39 used to broadcast Lehigh home matches (they were also carried on Channel 33 in Hershey). That was about it for wrestling television coverage.

I watched Channel 39 on Sunday. Lehigh normally had home Sunday matches.
Daryl Burley was my favorite wrestler.

How accurate is track typically?

 

[pish69]

No Carter?!?!

Yeah. Sucks. BearClaw for Carter and Evan’s for Kasak against Mayora

 

[donboy6499]

Cool.

 

[pish69]

Usually spot on

 

[mcpat]

Happy for Evans to get another dual, but no Carter-Griffith is very disappointing

 

[pish69]

What doesn’t make sense is if Kasak is the guy, he needs matches at the weight. Unless Cael plans to get him into some opens.

Hoping no Carter means sick and not an injury.

Hopefully Beyer’s gives an update

 

[ggcpsu]

Hopefully nothing serious is going on with Carter, but if guys aren't gonna wrestle in big duals, let's just shorten the season to Big Tens and Nationals and be done with it.

That’s what I’m thinking with Truax being sick last week.

 

[McScoreley]

That’s what I’m thinking with Truax being sick last week.

Beat me to it and traveling with the team isn't ideal either in this scenario.

 

[js8793]

cue the “it’s not ducking because our guys don’t duck” discourse lol

 

[District four]

I don't know if most are aware but COVID is wreaking havoc in central PA. I personally know a few psu students who came home for the break who ended up sick as shit along with their families. Shits going around I'm thinking he's sick

He’s gotta be sick. No other explanation.

 

[mcpat]

When you don’t have any history whatsoever of ducking, it’s not ducking. But feel free to tell Carter he’s ducking in person.

 

[pish69]

You seriously think Carter would duck anyone?? Lol

 

[PaWrestlingFan7]

He’s gotta be sick. No other explanation.

If you think Starocci would duck anyone, you are seriously delusional!

 

[mcpat]

Madden and JS ten secs after a post says Carter may be out.

Praying it’s just that and not injury

We would never bring it up if this board didn’t accuse every Hawkeye wrestler who ever missed a dual against a higher ranked opponent of ducking.

Edit: I 100% don’t think he’s ducking. However, if Griffith didn’t go and Starocci did, this board would have pages of complaints about him ducking and how bad it is for the sport and the sport will never grow.

 

[mcpat]

I like Evans a lot. I think he’s an AA/R12 guy at 141.

But Evans - Mayora wasn’t my expected feature bout.

 

[apoharrow]

So how great would a TB win be?

 

[johnstownsteel]

Speaking of parents. They gonna show old man Amine tonight? I say yes. Over/under I'll set it at 2.5. What say you? Over for me...

Wait, I missed the rankings where Griffith is ranked higher than Starocci!🥵🥵

Who's the higher ranked opponent at 174?

 

[nerfstate]

IDK about Michigan.

Ohiowrestling.net is not officially an Ohio State board, but it may as well be, and it's a very good board.

Man, that website is a blast from the past! Frankly, I'd prefer it to video adds constantly reloading my page on mobile. . . . .

Channel 3 WPIX would cover some PSU matches. I remember Andy Matter and others.

I will retract the higher ranked part. If both opponents are top 10 and one sits, then if it’s anybody but a Penn St wrestler the other is ducking. Read my edit. Would you automatically assume Griffith is sick?

Higher ranked??

The Amine crew was sitting in the row in front of us at the BJC dual last year. They got a little down, but I guess they weren't feeling pain because none of them broke their glasses.

Lionvision working for anyone? I got nothing. Not even big country

 

[dicemen99]

Yeah wtf is that about

It's about Levi's cut.

 

[JWil23]

cue the “it’s not ducking because our guys don’t duck” discourse lol

Yea, I’m sure Carter is ducking someone he’d dominate. What a stupid comment

 

[jmadden1998]

Cocaine Shane is ready to roll! He’s fired up!

 

[McScoreley]

If coaches don't agree on a weight, it's random draw. Agree it's bad for Levi but that wasn't Bormet's decision.

Nope
