Re: Titletown: Iowa City?

I don't think so. They've dominated the sport for a while, save a short break recently.

The titletown is over the top, but that is some major success. They deserve some props for that.

They're not declaring it Titletown, they're just nominating it.

"Where cauliflower ears are like stripes on a uniform."

speaking of 'cauliflower ears', do wrestlers ears ever recover enough to look somewhat normal over time, or is that permanent damage?

I noticed Cael still has his badge of honor, but I was wondering if it recovers over time. I guess if it is cartilage damage, then it would be permanent.

This is a serious question, how many NCAA championships has ISU won in wrestling? Anyone know?
