Iowa wrestler trashes medal

    I think this is probably more about Iowa's coaches and media reps (and maybe the B1G itself) saying that this is bad publicity and they're "forcing him" to try to get it back to save face. Smells of total media/PR crap. Whether it's a genuine change of heart or a PR stunt to save face, it's the in-the-moment reaction that is the problem.

    Everyone has better manner and respect when they get time to cool down.... it's about what you do in the face of adversity that shows your true colors. McD showed his colors and no amount of retrospection or apology (genuine or not) will change his poor decision making.

    In addition, I think another test of character is your response to previous failures. I don't think McD will win the title as of now, even though he's fully capable.

    Lets see how he responds after NCAAs to see if its more of the same or this incident was just a really bad moment in this young mans life.

    Did you mean Ricky bobby? Hahahaha, I kept trying to figure out who Reese bobby was.

    Pretty sure Reese is Ricky's dad. He's the character who originally said it, and Ricky lived his life following it.

  • I think the way that Delgado and Alan Waters out of Missiouri, #1 125 lb, are wrestling I think it will be difficult for McD and Nico at the NCAA's. Although, I still think Nico matches up well against Delgado.

    Justin mentioned this kid Waters on Sunday and I looked him up. He is very impressive and some quality wins.
