He has a chance, but he is no longer a certainty.

Found the Taylor Final with an Iranian commentator on YTube.
Here's a Yazdani interview from last November. Very humble and personable.
I just want Vodka to come over and again say, David Taylor hasn't done anything.
I expected they would be. Would love to go watch wrestling Iran some day.
Yeah, he's hard to root against.
He is too busy investigating somebody's compliance.
Can we get him to SC to train, even for a bit? Seems like a terrific young man who would fit in well with the fun and grateful Cael Sanderson

Great day today for Team USA. Taylor, what a monster. Every match he's been down to Yaz by pushouts. This one only the 1 point bs passivity. Great game planning by Taylor and coaches.
I was powerwashing and didn't get to see Zains match live. Took a break went to my phone and saw the match length was 5 minutes. I was like Yes!! Zain teched him.
Then I was crushed.
He will be back, he's tasted it now!! This will only make him better!

You can stay at T.R Foley's yurt in Tehran.
It's safer there than in Iowa City.
I’d love to have Persian food 3x a day in its homeland.
If Spencer had not been injured he would definitely be a major threat to Gilman. That said, he is recovering from his ACL surgeries.
Let's see what happens if he can get back close to full steam.
My favorite wrestler Taylor looks more bad ass than ever after his rehab.
Edit: Spence is my favorite college wrestler, Taylor International.
Both Yianni and Seth Gross won their openers, Yianni a 4-0 over Tevanyan (ARM) who'd ended Yianni's last Worlds, and Gross a 13-2 tech over Andrii Dzhelep (Ukraine).
I missed the Gross match because it happened during Yianni's match. Yianni won with two shot clock points and a late takedown, but he was bailed out by a potentially dangerous call with under :30 remaining, the whistle blowing just as he was getting torqued over from a front headlock position.

Yianni and Gross both win their second matches, Yianni 10-0 over Dubov (BUL) and Gross 7-0 over Grigorev (POL). Quarters next for them, Snyder still yet to wrestle.
Not potentially dangerous, but illegal. Opponent had hands clenched around his throat under his chin.
Greetings all, that annoying thing called work didn't allow me to watch the matches over the past two days so I really appreciate the coverage by all the posters in this thread.
What can you say about David Taylor, cements his place as the best overall Nittany Lion of all time. Zain breaks through with Silver and JB passing Smith, what an accomplishment. Hopefully the full videos will be made available soon.

USA has been dominating at all the levels this year. Is it we are really good, Russia not being there or alittle of both. I kind of wish Russia was there because I feel these teams from Cadets-Seniors are very good.
Gross and Yianni into semis. Snyder up on mat D
US so far:
2 golds
1 silver
1 7th
3 in the finals
3 in the semis
Putting up results like we are at Pan Ams...

1 “offensive point”. I know I took offense when he was put on the clock.

As a freshman at Nebraska, 7x World and Olympic Champion Jordan Burroughs went 16-13. He DNP at nationals after bowing out at 1-2.
I offer this to every fan that gets disappointed when a star recruit doesn’t make the NCAA final their freshman year.

To transfer, you must have been a student. He did not transfer he was released from his LOI
I was on a team that wrestled in Iran the year before the Shah fell. It was pretty cool to wrestle in front of packed gyms and to be around those fans. Wrestling is king over there.
Yianni has beaten 3 former World medalists in a row ??
Holy shit.
USA may finally break thru at the dreaded 65kg weight class.

A reminder that 4th year collegiate wrestler Nick Lee beat both Yianni and Zain at the Olympic trials last year.
