Stop feeding the frustratedTrolls on HR

Cassioppi is a fine recruit, but he really doesn't belong in the same sentence as the other 3. Ironically, most Hawk fans didn't even know who he was until he flipped and then all of a sudden magically upon his verbal was transformed into the equivalent of a top 10 recruit, ready to challenge Steveson. Reality is he may be only the 4th best 285 out of the class.

Then that is one of the deepest hwt. classes in the history of high school wrestling. The kid is pretty darn good!
 
Nobody is saying he isn't good but he clearly isn't in the same p4p ranking area as Lee, Kemerer or Warner were. All three were #1 at their weight class and top 10 overall.
 
I think I will wait and see how things develop before I conclude Hawks studs are a rasslin versus hand fighting for a maulin.

I really hope you are not correct.......I currently enjoy watching them. I don't want to just tune in for overtime with the score 1-1. The thing I like about many of the incoming recruits across the nation is that there are more and more who want to score points and be exciting to watch. We are blessed to have so many on the PSU squad......lets hope that attitude keeps spreading as the interest in college wrestling increases.

You may be correct about Cassioppi. I really didn't know much about him before the spring and summer. I realize that I am basing this on just a handful of matches I have seen.....but he seems to me to be much improved this summer/year than last. There was a time he was rated a good bit behind Costello. That is currently pretty laughable. Of course he isn't going to challenge Stevenson but being the 4th best of the heavyweights out there is pretty darn good. This is a great group of heavyweights

Being 4th best 2018 HWT may or may not be enough for the podium. Offhand 2017 has Singletary, Hillger, and Vough; 2019 has Schultz and Kerkvliet. (Plus guys I'm forgetting and who emerges.)

Cassioppi is a very good prospect. So are the rest. HWT could actually be an exciting weight class.

First it’s ring shopping now it’s planning for a baby. Things move fast in the Turk household apparently.

Pushing and moving forward- don't want stalling calls:D

Making babies was a lot more fun than shopping for rings!

As expensive as rings are, the babies certainly end up costing more!!!

JD Bergman says you'll do well with the hand you're dealt.
She said Yes! Never seen her so happy. Ring shopping was tough, proposal was tougher.. All worth it. Now i take a deep breath and smile. :):D

Plan's moving along nicely! Cheers! What a good day

Congrats. Best of luck and sincerest best wishes always.

Let us know when that baby arrives. I will want to send something Blue and White, not bumblebee yellow and black.

Congrats! We have a 100-page thread full of Iceland honeymoon info (if you can wade through all of the cruiseliner clutter).

I'll join in on the congrats. We've been married going on 42 years this June and I would never go back and change a day. May your joy continue in perpetuity.

Prediction (it seems to be a recurring problem here in Iowa): if the first child is a boy, he's named Gable, but, of course, pronounced, "Gob-lee"

I always ask kids in Iowa named that if it is pronounced that way, or "Gah-bell," or "Gabble." You should see the looks, especially when they know I'm a wrestling fan. :p

Incidentally, I do the same when I order this beer in Waterloo/Cedar Falls. http://www.singlespeedbrewing.com/the-beer/gable/

naming Turks first child is going to be a bidding contest on the HR....with naming rights to whomever bids the highest amount to the HWC.

and....

Im putting you all on notice we here at BWI will be raising major dollars to name that boy.....CAEL

First time I read this, I thought your first sentence was an expression of surprise, rather than being excited.

Congrats, man. 25 years coming up in May for me, and loving every minute of it.
