What is Pac-12? I saw Zahid Valencia won this title, but what is it? Pacific 12?

It's a conference like the Big 10. West coast schools generally.

And one grammar correction for you.

Yup. NCAA wrestling is broken into conferences Big 10, PAC 12, EIWA, EWL....

No Russia, no Iran and no Turkey at the Freestyle World Cup in Iowa. Damn, politics.

Sammie Henson out at WBU.

Surprised he didn't have more success there. He always seemed like a very good assistant coach (and a headcase).

Some people aren't meant to be HC.

Gabe Steveson is wrestling at the Bill Farrell. Doesn't look like there are many big names at 125Kg wrestling so it could be doable for him.

Great news

If anybody knows the Louisville/Elizabethtown/Radcliff KY PM me. I’m looking at a potential job in the area and it’s very appealing so far, but want to know more about that area in general because I know next to zero people from around there

Isnt he involved with Jden Cox? Like one of his personal coaches?

This kid Ceron Francisco is intriguing. I posted about him a few pages back. Totally green, played football until his senior year in HS and switched to wrestling after he had a massive growth spurt. He wrestled NAIA and only started to really wrestle well his senior year. He is being mentored by the Paulson bros and they are talking about his potential. Hes HUGE. Him and Steveson will probably meet upo in this tourney. Steveson should mop him up at this point though.

Not sure TBH

Not sure TBH

Im pretty sure about it. I remember it from post Paris interviews. What was in the great news tweet you posted? Its not coming through at work.

MMA super prospect Deron Winn wrestling at the Bill Farrell as well. Cant get any fights so he is wrestling again.

I saw that on another sight, who they getting to coach? After seeing what guys like Pat Poplizio and Chris Bono have done at emerging DI schools, its clear the right coach can take a program very far in a short period of time. Which reminds me, is John Reader going with Bono or staying at SDSU?

He’s following bono

 

[dsdoubled]

He’s following bono

I figured that. Is there any really good wrestlers at Wisconsin? Because I know Reader went to SDSU in the first place bc Bono sold him on it as a great situation to be able to basically train full time for his own competitive career. Kinda like what Burroughs has going on in Nebraska.

No big MMA organization picked him up?

Thought Gable was going to the Farrell?
