He did say “Penn State” not NLWC. So maybe Luke takes a redshirt after all, lol

Pardon me, Post Police… a better wording would’ve been “noticeable strength advantage”. That’s controllable and not an excuse by any means. DT knew what he signed up for and had time to adjust to 92kg. Sadulaev did it better.
If anything my post was to highlight that I’m not sure it would’ve mattered what the gameplan was… Sadulaev was just better.
Respectfully, kick rocks.
This is the last line of his post.
"EDIT: and on top of that, the opponent has an almost-unrivaled counter chest wrap and a size advantage."
No doubt the guy was better, but one guy coming up to a weight and one guy going down a weight makes a difference. The Russian was an absolute tank. It looked like Taylor hit a brick wall when he go to a leg. I do not think I have ever seen anyone make Taylor seem slow. That is hard to do.
Sadulaev’s explosiveness is his super power. ultra precise technique and zero to 100 in 0.0 seconds. A marvel at the sport and in the convo for actual GOAT.
You said size advantage. There wasn't. Definitely a strength and ability advantage, but to say size (though now you say that's not what you meant) is just lazy.
Don't get your feelings hurt over words typed in a public forum.
Just saying if DT won today you would have seen an OSU marketing campaign the likes of which wrestling has never seen and it would be hard to compete with
dumbest thing I ever heard!
Yup - would have combined Tom Ryan-level hucksterism with great recent results.
I’ll try to fix it so you don’t feel like you need to correct me in the future. Good day.
Huge win by the newest Penn Stater.
I, for one, welcome our new Japanese overlords

Not a great showing for the US. I expected better with the guys we had going but 3 of them are probably over the hill so maybe it’s what I should have expected. Still, they all looked good at trials. Green is probably my biggest surprise. I thought he had a decent path but got handled and then the guy who beat him got teched. We should still come home with a couple medals hopefully but I don’t think any gold. I don’t have Vito beating Ono in the semis with how incredible Ono has looked. JB should win bronze. DT definitely still up in the air
Edit-didn’t realize Vito was wrestling right as I was typing this

Ono just made Vito look like a kid from the SOCON. absolutely toyed with him. threw him like a ragdoll
Kind of wild that Blaze wrestled Ono better than Uguev and Vito. Ono looks absolutely amazing
Japan makes the final at 70kg. Aoyagi took bronze at U23s last week. Just made the senior world final
agreed. I still like the skill of getting off of bottom vs laying on your belly not getting turned
if we didnt get to see JBs last carrer match live because of technical difficulties i will be devastated
If it was JB's last competitive match, in honor of JB I promise to yell something derogatory to coach Manning the next time Manning attends a wrestling competition at Penn State. I also promise to wait for Manning's first childlike outburst or excessive whine to deliver on first promise.
Magomed Eltemirov (who lost to Khaniev in the finals!) u23s may have been a tougher bracket than seniors
Surely this performance is NLWC’s fault.
