I heard his dad may have been an issue in his recruitment by the in state schoolsIIRC Sloan was a late bloomer in HS. Maybe he had some injuries too. I think he was a below the radar guy that didn't get much interest from ISU, UNI or Iowa (or other top programs). Shapiro was a much higher rated recruit at the time. Just goes to show you how big a jump someone can make from HS to college.
Announcer seemed like he was a homer for Allrez and didn't seem to give much credit to Degen.Alirez is very tough. I was worried about that match.
In Big 10 news,
Murin and Young both got beat already and Evan Wick defaults out of whole tourney
Carr wins 11-5.
We need some bonus. Bad.
Iowa 7 to semis, up with 72, Nebby next 59, PSU 56.5
Are quarters done at Big 12s?
I'm chalking it up to he didn't want to get into anything funky with a guy that would be going for broke and risk the kneeYeah, Carr didn't really even try to get bonus points there. 19 secs left and he just needed a takedown and basically let the clock run out. Hopefully he's feeling okay.
