npope,

Are you saying that you know what is going on with Thielke?
The most common reasons for struggling in college
are an injury or schoolwork problems.  Since he had a very high GPA
is high school and does not appear injured, it falls in the unknown/mystery
category for me.

I am not an insider, but I have heard some stuff that, if true, will make all of feel about two inches tall when it does finally surface. I know that vague answer just adds fuel to the fire right now, but JT deserves better than all of this speculation by the fanbase right now. Let him and the team work through it.
Merely having an opinion doesn't necessarily make it a good one

Jordan is just a hammer. Dominating win vs a very good wrestler. Massa looked broken early.


Massa is a bully.   He has mastered that side headlock, and he tortures weaker wrestlers with it.  I give him credit  for that skill.   But here he gets pushed around by a kid better than him, and he folds early and often.

very frustrating match.  Too many poor performances by the non-stars.

JT looked tiny.  How do Greco skills translate against stronger opponents?

RR looks like he could be an All American this year.   Same for Timmy McCall.

BTW, I vomited in my mouth when McCall lost the Midlands.  Kid is so close.  Can't say I was shocked, just disappointed.

There is a third reason.  Girls.  Just sayin'.

Tom Brands had a girlfriend all through college and he did O.K.
I know Brand's girlfriend said that at the University of Iowa
Tom only knew a couple of the names of the buildings.   One wrestler
there said that the Brands brothers had an abnormal desire to win.

Nor am I a insider, but a fan who who wishes the best for every UW wrestler on and off the mat.  You've heard "stuff", really, "stuff".  As most fans we all hear stuff that we may think is credible.  To indicate whatever the problem may or may not be would make us feel two inches tall really opens a Pandora's box.  What ever JT issues may or may not be if so serious as the stuff you heard, maybe that should be solely focused on.

Glad we have MSU and can rebound quick! Or at least I would hope so. 17-16 win or better if we step up.

after looking at MSU Friday dual against EMU we should win more like 31-6. Go get them Bucky!!!
