I definitely questioned that. But, I can see why he did it. He thought he had Yonger tired.…

Agree. He underestimatd Yonger in several key moments of the match and payed the price.

Hilton. If we can do nationals in the past, we can do big 8s. Rotate it.

Tough get there, with Ames not having enough hotel rooms, and DDM booked for HS.

One thing that gets looked at is how far from auto qualifying were they. Will missed it by one spot. It’s not like he got 10th with 5 autos.

Chittum rode Downey out the 1st OT then Chittum went down and was rode out.

I went back and rewatched and you are correct. I stand corrected. Makes the coaches decisions all the more suspect.

I think there are plenty of hotels in the Ames area to host the Big XII tourney. There are usually only 4-6k fans in attendance.

And presumably one of the biggest contingents is ISU fans who wouldn’t need many rooms.

You all act like John Smith would allow the tournament to be in Ames

i don't really like any of shirts, but I'm probably going to find one. Hard to say no to wrestling shirts, they can be tough to come across

I wanted to circle back that I did crack and order the Charlie Hustle one. I hate the CY and would prefer wrestling cy BUT I want to wear it to Cys House of Trivia next month because I don't get many public opportunities to rep wrestling like this and during that event everyone is so football heavy. I wanted to make sure to have wrestling on top to bottom haha

I did post this on twitter of Coach Dresser winning COTY

That wasn’t the best version of Carr. Don’t jump ship! He will be fine. We will see a better version of David in 2 weeks when he’s standing center Mat on Saturday night getting his hand raised! That’s all that matters now

Now THAT was a better version of Carr
