Nkawtg 137 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 http://www.intermatwrestle.com/articles/12995 The big ten preseeds are released. I dont know about the rest of you, but I am very excited to see how this turns out prior to nationals. Yes. Is Isaac Jordan for real? What happens if he grows to 165 next year? How about the Hwt class? I hate that school up North but I love Adam Coon's wrestling. Whoever says that heavies don't have to shoot should watch these athletes compete. Coon and Nelson may not even make the finals. Big Ten Hwt class is the best and deepest class in any conference. The a Buckeyes under Tom Ryan have always peaked at the right time. I look for them to step up. Logan and Heflin are superb but they really need some others to step up. Stieber and Rutherford rematch will be amazing and I predict a fall by LS.Two time defending national champ Tony Nelson is a five seed. Amazing how tough this conference is.

wildcat2002 190 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 I can not wait for the Stieber/Rutherford match. Logan did not look like himself the first go around. Dont for get returning champ DSJ is a 4 seed. 157, 174, and hwt will be wild! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrestling Dad 99 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 I assume neither Ervin or Fahy are in the Illinois lineup for the Big 10 tournament? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildcat2002 190 Report post Posted March 4, 2014 I think Ervin was injured and fahy stepped in for him. I cant say what the lineup will be this weekend. We will know for sure in a couple days. Regardless who is in the lineup, they will need to wrestle lights out to grab one of the big tens allocations( neither are high enough to get selected with rpi) http://www.ncaa.com/news/wrestling/article/2014-02-27/ncaa-announces-qualifier-allocations-2014-di-wrestling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nkawtg 137 Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Something is up with Ed Ruth. Not sure if he's sick, sucked out, or what the problem is. He's just not performing like he has in the past against lesser competition. Steinhaus may beat him and if he does, Minnesota will win the tournament. AMENDED Minnesota did not show up. It's close after day 1 but Penn Statw has the horses to pull away from Iowa. Logan and Retherford tomorrow!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildcat2002 190 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Man Jesse Delgado is my fav college wrestler to watch. This has to be a joke!! Watch him run? Watch him dive around looking for an ankle to get a stalemate? You could have mentioned 200 other wrestler in d1 before him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tarzan 21 Report post Posted March 11, 2014 Heflin was jacked , I heard he jumped two weight classes , pretty impressive considering it's said to be impossible to gain more than 12 lbs of solid muscle a yr naturally by a full grown male , not that I believe it or care . He was impressive to say the least . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger123 43 Report post Posted March 11, 2014 I agree. Delgado showed zero offense. Great scrambler but i would prefer to see someone attack more than they back up. Heflin has found a lot more offense with his 2 weight class jump. He used to bore me to tears trying to win 1-0 or 2-1 matches. He is much more comfortable at 197 and will take some chances.

Nkawtg 137 Report post Posted March 11, 2014 I was actually joking about Heflin. What a snoozefest!! He even had Cael chiding the ref about his stalling. He's a smart wrestler though. Make a mistake and lose position for a split second and Heflin will kill you. He was 171 his senior if HS cutting from 185. He is jacked though. Coach Ryan gets the upper weights lifting like OSU linebackers. Would have loved to have seen Campalatano (sp) stay around but Hefline will do just fine.

Nkawtg 137 Report post Posted March 12, 2014 Logan dominated. Not as close a match as the 7-3 score would indicate. Cincy Moe coach has retired. Heard a strong rumor that J Jaggers could be the next coach there. That would be bad for the Buckeyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WristControl 49 Report post Posted March 14, 2014 lol Delgado didn't get hit for stalling. He had a strategy to win and it worked. You don't go 24-2 by backing up and waiting for a stalemate. He thrives in scrambles and keeps his composure late in the match. Real fun to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
