PSU - Michigan Dual Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Iowa v O$U now. Heinselman #18? What happened to this kid since his FR Year?? He had NCAA Champ written all over him. Tanned Tom sure knows how to coach em up!
They could beat Iowa 60-0 next week and Cael wouldn’t allow them to peak until March
Cody Sanderson being interviewed. I'll summarize the Q, and the A is preceded by the hyphen
Michigan makes you work for everything
- that's a great team out there. A great crowd they had. Proud of our guys to come through and win some close matches
That was established right out the gate by Hildebrandt
- he did a great job. Wrestled really smart. We need to work on movement on bottom with him
RBY just missed the major. Kind of what you expect
- what I liked was that he got the back points, where usually he does it with TDs
Disappointment in Micic missing, but Lee did a nice job
- I was really happy with Nick. He cut him when he needed to. He was crisp in multiple facets.
Hoping to see Beau against Stornin, but in the 13 sec he looked good
- he came out like a cannonball. That's what we want to see
Bearclaw -- still a battle at 157. Lewan a tough opponent
- Lewan has great D, has great counter offense. We're tryin to figure out what we're doing in 157
Berge with a really solid 3-1 win. He seems to have good pop
- he looked good. He wasn't happy with it, and wanted more. 2nd match out, I'm happy with it
Logan Massa is dangerous. A terrific bout. A good match for CStar
- nothing wrong with getting pushed. He looked really good, and had to dig deep at the end. that's what we like to see
At 184, a great battle between AB and Amine. AB has that feel for the sport. It's uncanny
- Amine is tough. AB was really impressive. Surprised the ref didn't stop it before AB got the TD
Nice job by Dean
- That's a tough call for a coach. The longer your guy stays on top, the tougher it will be to get a TD if needed. We finally decided he had to ride him out. That was a nice exchange in OT; it was a fun match
At heavyweight, that was a really impressive win. The way Parris has wrestled folk the past few years, makes it special
- I had some concerns coming into the match. Would he be able to get out from bottom.
What would his conditioning be like. There was a lot of great stuff in that match
Short turnaround. It's a good MSU team.
- they've done a great job the past few years pulling in recruits. It's going to be a battle
How do you train through this 3-weekend stretch. How careful do you have to be to keep them rested
- we're thinking about the postseason, so we keep pushing them. We can't take our foot off the gas

This didn’t age well, thankfully. It was a great event
Another interesting thing this year. More guys using that “run the pipe” finish on those single legs. The way the guys have perfected it, it’s almost impossible to defense because of the pressure coming down on the leg. Always innovating.
Tom Ryan is an idiot easily losing his only challenge at 125
Kerk better be ready for Parris' response in their next match. Kerk sprung a new twist on Parris with the wrist control. Parris will have a counter ready next time around. Gotta keep innovating.
Great coaching. No different than RBY hiding his left arm from DeSanto.
@GregPickel can we get an interview with Max Dean and ask him how he is doing? Curious as the transition for him not only from school but also a big ten schedule perspective.
Speaking of, DeSanto looks like he's on a mission. DeSanto is always must see TV. Kid has incredible energy....and yeah, every now and then he goes off the rails.
Penn State makes Cael Sanderson and one wrestler available each week. We'll see who it is on Tuesday. Brooks was last week so it won't be him again. Would guess maybe Kerkvliet, but I, too, would love for it to be Dean. We'll see.
Penn State wrestling blasts Michigan from start to finish in 29-6 victory: 5 takeaways
Penn State showed why it is the nation's top-ranked wrestling team by winning eight of 10 bouts in a blowout win over No. 3 Michigan.
Does anyone know why the refs weren’t counting when Dean went down to the single leg when he was riding?
Onto the big one next week at Iowa. Gotta beat Michigan State on Sunday first. Hope we don’t have any let down. Next Friday at Carver is gonna be insane.
I must say, Ayala’s got similar non-stop energy. Not crazy energy but kid goes non-stop. Not as good as ADS (yet). Despite loss tonight, kid is tough.
I thought Hildebrandt looked good
I sincerely apologize. I thought this was a discussion board. I was discussing. I certainly meant nothing personal.
He’s the best we have right now at 157. Luke Gardner may have something to say about that though. I’m hearing he’s back or coming back.
I’ll root for either guy. I was trying to say that Terrell looks tentative and when a kid’s not wrestling with confidence in my opinion he’s just waiting for the hammer to fall, to find a way to lose. I’m sure he’s a great kid but wrestling is so mental. He’ll jump a level when he finds that out for himself. Go Lions!He’s the best we have right now at 157. Luke Gardner may have something to say about that though. I’m hearing he’s back or coming back.
It’s some mix of talent and confidence, and I don’t know which he lacks. Here what Jordan Burroughs wrote the other day about confidence.

That’s the first time kerk blew me away. Sky is the limit. Didn’t like the announcers saying Paris was off. Maybe he was off cause of kerk
Kerk is right there with Gable when healthy like this year. Like to see him keep pounding the weights and good calorie diet like Cassar and get up to 245 to 250. Kerk can beat him once he gets stronger. He’s just as athletic. MO
