I may be wrong, but Jim Gibbons seems to consistently hate on the Lions. Cormier mixed up CStar and AB earlier. Maybe he should stick to MMA. I would take Robles, Cox, or Burroughs instead of this crew. Too bad Jeff Blatnick and Gorilla Monsoon aren’t still around. Gorilla could make up muscle groups and at least be entertaining. Cormier is struggling!
I don’t think so. He is from Iowa State and another announcer from Iowa. I would be shocked if they didn’t tilt towards Iowa, but “ hate” no.

They have been promoting many wrestlers as five time all Americans. Has that ever happened before? I would think it’s impossible without the covid year…

View attachment 187872Check out the Twitter convo between Bo and Parsons. Micah recruiting for Cael now! Love the PSU pride!
Micah is the absolute man. I know everyone was worried about him coming in to Penn State, but holy crap, who would have thought he'd be the best, most vocal Penn State ambassador? He was always really interested in wrestling and hung out with Bo when he was here. Got to imagine that he learned a thing or two.

Great showing by the team. Well spoken, grateful young men. True student athletes and great representatives of PSU. Cael and the rest of the coaching staff have created an incredible atmosphere in the program and it really goes beyond wrestling. You can tell these guys don't just wrestle for themselves; they have a higher sense of purpose.

Well, there it is. Pretty obvious who the better coach is.
I'm disgusted.
i feel like the writing is has been on the wall for some time... it pretty clear that one program is happy for the scraps while the others wants to whole freakin feast.

I turned in late, but did ESPN cover the individual awards before the team awards? I watched all of the team stuff but didn't see any individual awards. If this was the CFP Championship or the NCAA BBall Championship they'd stay on the air forever with the mothership talking to people. Wrestling, although the coverage has vastly improved, they still have a ways to go.

Did anyone else notice how Amine dug his elbow into Aaron's neck when her got that late meaningless takedown? He knew he lost and acted like a dick. Not sorry to see him go after 7 years.
Yea… class moves like that prove he and Aaron respect each other (Just like Amine’s brother claims). I guess it’s easy to respect someone when you finally beat them, but it only lasts until they take the win back (along with your geriatric manhood).

Who were the individual award winners? I felt like either Starocci or Brooks should have won MOW. Starocci because he beat a former champ or Brooks because he beat an olympic medalist. Just my two cents.

not on the ESPN tv feed. I'm not sure if the awards and the team trophy were on one of the other ESPN channels. I was streaming the awards, so I saw them, as well as the team trophy.

In ESPN's defense, the trophies are done between the matches. They spend some time showing the winner celebrate, then interview him, and then go to commercials -- the only commercials they get to show during the event.

I was watching the streaming awards ceremony. I think that's the only place it was available. Who were the individual award winners?
