So likely have a Vito/Fix semi. 25 continues to be a mess.

Will be interesting to see where Starocci gets seeded.

He did. With about 15 -20 seconds left. Don't think real bad, but gave Crookham choice after injury timeout.
So turned the 3 point lead into a 4 point lead for Crookham because Vito had to give him an escape

Vito did it to himself

Nothing is worse than Cael having all of his guys saying wrestling doesn’t matter, wrestling doesn’t mean much. The irony of Cael only being known for a wrestler and a wrestling coach and making a career out of a sport. So annoying

Other teams need to pick up on this. This is why his teams consistently perform under the brightest lights. They dont put too much pressure on themselves and are able to wrestle to their full potential. Masterful psychology.

But other teams have picked up on it everyone uses the word grateful now and that wasn’t even mentioned 10 years ago. Not saying that part isn’t great but the wrestling doesn’t matter crap is annoying. Everyone one of these kids will make a career of coaching wrestling. It’s their whole life from age 4 for 90% of them

Whether it’s true or not is besides the point. They believe it.

Brands is famous for saying, “win you love, lose you die.” Literal polar opposites.

Brands is an idiot though. He’s one coach and one program. Cael misses his kids growing up and his wife raises his kids while he travels the country doing something that “doesn’t matter”. The interviews suck and it’s boring for our sport. No one wants to hear Penn state kids do an interview. Braeden Davis interview was horrible you can tell he’s trying to catch on to what the others say

Agree that their interviews are horrible.
