@MatScouts1 When we going to see an RAF event in Iowa?!

[Ryan Crookham @ryan_crookham]

I am blessed to announce my commitment to the University of Iowa. Excited to pursue national titles in the black and gold. Go Hawks! 🐤

Bubba Jenkins (ASU)
Tony Ramos (Iowa)
Cody Brewer (Oklahoma)
Drew Foster (UNI)
Zeke Moisey (WVU)

[That Guy Rocked CFB @ThatFBGuyRocked]

Shonn Greene.

That guy rocked.

@MatScouts1 Might be a dumb question, but with some of the Stanford grad transfers - is it possible they enter the portal while they wait to see if they get accepted into grad school at Stanford? Then if they don’t, they move on?

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@kjpilcher Are you hearing anything credible on Nick Gwiazdowski?

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@Masonjr36 @wrestlinggdesk I’d like to see this - fresh perspectives. Any insight into when an announcement might come?

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@MatScouts1 I believe they split 3-3 during their careers. Feels like the best way to settle this.

[MatScouts @MatScouts1]

Lucas Byrd vs Drake Ayala for the right to go to the Final Four

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@HawkeyeSource I'd agree with this, I know you have to put JW in there for now - but I can't see him sticking around.

Would love to see Iowa make an attempt to bring Garvin back to Iowa City for 165.

@CPyles8 Where do you guys think Gabe Arnold's season & NCAA performances rank in terms of all-time, noteworthy NCAA performances? I can't think of another situation where a wrestler competes at 3 different weight classes in a single season, and AA's two weight classes up like that!

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@j_warner156 Angel Rivera is a disgrace. Everytime I see him reffing an Iowa match, we call it the “Angel Rivera Clown Show”.

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@austingomez65 Guy is so uncomfortable and awkward. Got this clown out there embarrassing himself and @ShaneSparksBTN is sidelined for the mainstream coverage? Makes 0 sense.

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@NoBickal Quint Kessenich is the worst. Weird dude.

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@MatSavant In the league I run, you predict 8 AA’s for each weight class by placement. 3pts if they AA, but 10 extra pts if you accurately predict placement. 0pts if they don’t AA.

Ex. Predict Ayala to get 5th
If he gets 8th? 3pts.
If he gets 5th? 10pts.
If he doesn’t AA? 0 pts.

@Wisc_dad @adamtirapelle @MatScouts1 Love this - baseball has the “tie goes to the runner” rule. Why not work towards making reaction time less gray and have a “tie goes to the wrestler who initiated the attack” rule?

Nothing will ever be perfect but there’s certainly improvement opportunities needed.

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@Mevin_Kalone123 @Emckown23 Ohh boy that one reaaally stings… but I think you’re right

[Tyler Carlson @CarlsonTyler]

@GopherWrestling Really unfortunate for McEnelly, guy won that match and everyone knows it.

Need accountability from these officials. Horrible calls like this last a lifetime for guys who have worked their entire lives for these moments, only to get screwed.
