No one really ever gives or acknowledges the credit Iowans deserve. The quiet workhorse of middle America. Blessed to have Tom and Terry as coaches for Iowa Hawkeyes
Iowa is well known as a national powerhouse and represents blue collar hard working individuals even from casuals. Not sure what more acknowledgment you want.
Brands and DuPont probably would have butted heads. DuPont was on a power trip and Brands probably wouldn't have dealt with that too well. It's a shame we lost Schultz because of him.
That leg lace... Iv Never seen That before. Looks very effective. I’m surprised that you dont see a lot of that type of leg lace now a days. Everyone always goes for a gun wrench, And don’t always get the turn and they use up a a lot of energy trying to turn guys.
Man this is just the biggest thing you can do as a wrestler . Coming up in high school, all you ever hear about is the great wrestlers . We had posters in our wrestling room of Tom and terry lifting weights . I remember dreaming with my whole heart I could figure out how to wrestle and go to college and be successful so one day I could do the thing was all dreamed of: facing one of the Russians and beating him. It’s all I thought about in high school. Tom and terry really just were those guys who did that.
I didn’t wrestle a lot of freestyle growing up, but I have been watching it a lot for the last few years. I’ve never seen that leg lace before. It looked like something that’s not appropriate for television, but if it scores points...
136? Goddamn i wrestled 132 my jr season this season during Covid and it was so hard to cut to 132 and I normally weight 138-142. These guys look like they weigh 160-170 normally
