Just genuinely curious if he was hurt or there was another reason. FWIW I have no issue with the mff.
Why did Hildebrandt MFF?
- Thread starter evashevsky58
- Start date
Did he MFF or did they just not wrestle the 9th place match since both wrestlers qualified anyway?
Doubt there's anything to read from it. That match was almost completely pointless.
Personally I think he was ill. He looked good with the win, but in the other matches something seemed to be of from my POV.
I have to think he was ill.. not injured.. he never looks overly aggressive on offense but is usually a hammer on top and day one he couldn't ride to save his life.. just didn't seem to have the normal energy/strength he does on top.. Once qualified, why push at all.. especially in the case of a non scoring meaningless 9/10 match..
He had a terrible case of Didn't-wrestle-to-fans-expectations-itis.
He didn't look right to me either. I hope he recoups and proves those wrong quick to shovel dirt on him.
His snaps were much lighter than usual and his commitment to ride was lower weekend. I’m going with “off/illness.” There were no scoring or qualification implications of the match.
Those that know him best said Drew was fine. Not the results he wanted, but no excuses. Looking forward to seeing him at NCAA's.
Fans need to recognize that Drew fits somewhere in the pack from 4-15 at 125. He could either win or lose any of those match-ups.
As a returning AA he obviously has the potential to repeat, he also has the potential to go 0-3 against McKee and/or DeAugustino if he faces either of them again.

I thought the same with RBY. If you go back to his first bout against Ramos, Roman was absolutely soaked with sweat after the first period. Perhaps this was just from a heavy warmup, but definitely not the norm for him.
MFF is one way to avoid average officials.
True I suppose, but the one that is really not debatable is that a win in the 9th Place match helps him far more "on the margin" than a MFF. Additionally, it would be very uncharacteristic for one of Cael's wrestler's to take a MFF if they were perfectly healthy (you aren't supposed to do that under the rules) - if he was perfectly healthy and just did not want to wrestle, he should have just straight "Forfeited" under the Rulebook. The difference being that a straight Forfeit counts as a loss on your record. Again, not sure Cael would play games with the rulebook if there was not a genuine reason for the "Medical" Forfeit.
Link the rule describing the NCAA seeding process. We'll wait.
Precisely this. Also, he had previous losses to DeAugustino and McKee. It was a terrible draw for Drew and he'd probably tell you he was disappointed in his performance, but those results were not entirely unexpected.
Don't ask he doesn't know lol. He will however debate the criteria of determining ones age
I give a lot of credit to Penn St. for sending him out in the semi of the 9th place bracket which truly did matter to a lot of people. Being a Husker fan I was disappointed that Reno lost Saturday night as I thought he might get a "walk' to the NCAA tournament. While not a Penn St. fan, it is very hard for me to have anything less than complete respect for everything they do. They are generally very classy wrestlers and coaches. They let their wrestling do the talking for the most part. This is another minor but important example. They didn't bastardize the system. They respected it and sent him out there. The next match, literally meant nothing to anyone.
So would suriano be better? Lol.
He should get at least 3 wins in nationals which will help the team. 1 st round win then a coin toss depending on the draw and then consolations.
That's 2.0 team points.
Suriano will get that in his first match alone, and overall get 10x that.
Looks like we won't need him, and we don't have to root for him, but it shouldn't hurt us to understand that he's a better wrestler and that his personality didn't hinder Michigan.
Where did you get the footage from Kemerer's birthday party?
That isn't Mike. There is no way he could blow those candles out without shoulder support.
Those 2 team points would have won big champ. But that is more than 2 team points by the way.
why wouldn’t you root for him to win. Of course you should.
