What's this?

That pretty much nails it. Ulrey reminds me a little bit of...

an Andonian/Howard hybrid. No fear and big motor. Bolen took the L, but wrestling is a little like basketball - you are going to have a bad match or two. I still think if he goes under in 3rd period, he wins. Coaches must have had a different strategy and it just didn't work out.

Brady reminds me a little of Sully in that all his matches are white knucklers, but he is quietly getting it done.

I was looking at top guys in 174 and I really like Mekhi's chances to repeat as champion. I just think he over manages his matches and some get too close for comfort. He needs the big lights to ramp it up - not worried.

Don't think it's weight for Sam...seems more lack of confidence/aggression -- Palmetto Hokie 12/22/2021 10:52AM

@Palmetto Hokie can you clarify.. -- MEVT 12/22/2021 10:42PM

Shouldn't his length be an advantage? NCSt makes a living with lanky guys ** -- Palmetto Hokie 12/22/2021 4:37PM

It can be for some. From personal experience.... -- Hokie Flyer 12/22/2021 5:42PM

Maybe it's hand in hand ... -- KCDale 12/22/2021 11:03AM

Agreed... but we didn't notice this until his losses in the NCAA's ** -- Palmetto Hokie 12/22/2021 4:28PM

This team is really good. -- Hokie Flyer 12/22/2021 09:21AM

Not everyone evaluates the performance of the team the same way. I do -- dallasvt 12/22/2021 11:18AM

Fair. ** -- Hokie Flyer 12/22/2021 11:19AM

Ok that seems unnecessary but go ahead and seriously please explain to me -- hokiepro 12/22/2021 10:24AM

Shouldn't have told him to stay off this board. That wasn't necessary. ** -- VTexas 12/22/2021 11:01AM

You are probably right. -- Hokie Flyer 12/22/2021 11:11AM

Not seeing what? ** -- Pylons 12/22/2021 09:17AM

A top 5 finish -- hokiepro 12/22/2021 09:21AM

Well, top 5 is a lofty expectation -- Pylons 12/22/2021 09:34AM

Sure. Like I said I hope it’s just early learning lessons and we peak -- hokiepro 12/22/2021 10:22AM

No team peaks in mid December. -- emhokie 12/22/2021 4:44PM
