Greg,Man, looks to me like Bartlett is so close, but just needs one more finish in some of these matches. Heck of an effort.
I think that’s great as long as he doesn’t grab the ref by the arm first and then place his forehead against the his. I’m good with that.Isn't it cool how Hildebrandt shakes hands with the ref before and after the match? Solid kid!
My take is that Beau just feels more comfortable countering instead of creating offense. He almost countered Sasso for 2, but at some point, he's gonna have to actually get a takedown against a top guy.Greg,
Love BB but he wrestles defense against every decent kid. Too scared to get stuck underneath…..If I’m coaching him I’m going to get him shooting and finish QUICK….That’s the key with him. Set ups and finish Quick.
No doubt, but just awesome to see him and Edsell wrestling on this stage. Sure, we'd all like to see the regulars wrestling in this match, but great opportunity for two guys who surely do a ton in the room that no one ever gets to see.I'm very excited to see Manville. He could light the BJC up!
Seems like a good kid but I don't think he ever moved his feet once. It's like he was standing in cementWTF happened to Manville over the last 8 years. Holy **** was that pathetic. Why does in the hell does he still want to wrestle?
First time I’ve ever been wrongI'm very excited to see Manville. He could light the BJC up!
Max didn’t look too pleased with his performance. He’s wrestled every match this year. The slowdown towards Big Tens will help him a lot.197: Max Dean vs. Gavin Hoffman (GH)
Dean just strolls out.
Per 1
Not much thru 1:30. Or thru 2. End
Per 2
GH takes bottom. Caution on ??, or a scoring table issue. GH sits out,Dean stays with him, GH is up and taken down. Up again, and taken back down. They go OOB with 1:21 left. GH sits out again, Dean stays with him, and then Dean gets him back to regular position. GH finally but they go OOB with 18 sec. GH is out with 11 sec left, 0-1. End. RT @ 1:49 for Dean
Per 3
Dean takes bottom. Dean works up but Hoffman throws in a boot, Dean spins on him and is attempting to work for a reversal and he gets it, 2-1. GH sits out again and trie sa roll, but Dean stays with him. DGH works to his feet, but Dean stays with him, but gets stopped for a stall warning on Dean as he stayed below the waist. 43 sec left. GH tries a roll and hits it and gets a reversal with # 30 sec left, 2-3. Stoppage at 7 sec as GH was locked on the leg. Ohio State throws a brick. Seems like tOSU wants an esc and a TD instead of a reversal. I would stay with the reversal, but it's a tough one. Call is confirmed. Dean has RT locked. Not much on the restart, so it's 3-3 at the end of regulation.
SV
GH shoots, Dean stuffs him and worked the head, then switches to a leg but GH grabs an ankle and stopped for PD (legit), with 1:21 left. Dean in on a single, GH with a whizzer and then loses that but grabs an ankle, they scramble, and Dean with the TD with 25 sec left. 5-3 DEC for Max Dean!
28-7, PSU
Sonny he’s just too small. Love all our guys but Beard is a lot bigger and better on his feet. Hopefully Max hits the weights really hard the next 30 days to get bigger and stronger….Max didn’t look too pleased with his performance. He’s wrestled every match this year. The slowdown towards Big Tens will help him a lot.
I thought it was quick as well, but hey, to your point, it was coming either way.That was a terrible pin call but Brooks needed 5 more seconds anyway!
psupower, you’re going to eat your wordsSonny he’s just too small. Love all our guys but Beard is a lot bigger and better on his feet. Hopefully Max hits the weights really hard the next 30 days to get bigger and stronger….
