Ashnault / Koldozik NJ.Com Article...Ouch!

What's Kolo's coach supposed to say?
If he said anything different, I would be disappointed.
Seriously? Go read Ashnault's response. Ayres should have kept it general and said it'll be a good match but we feel good that Kolodzik will win, instead of Ashnault can't score on him.

Btw, because people keep harping on age on social media, Kolodzik is a 22 yo junior and Ashnault is a 23 yo graduate student. Ashnault is ~11 months older, yet he's 2 years further into college...

Love the way the match is getting hyped. Ayers knows which of his guys can stand the pressure. It helps his talented freshman avoid the spotlight. The more hype, the more fans will attend and the better for wrestling. These two kids are pros and can handle the exposure. Should be exciting. Buy them tickets!

Nah..Ayers should have kept his mouth shut and Goodale was right staying out of it. If anyone wants to talk it should be the wrestlers and I’m sure you won’t see Kolo opening his mouth.

Let the match do the talking
Exactly. I'm still shocked Ayres said what he said.
 
Almost seems like Ayres goading Ash to take bad shots... Saying he has no offense. I assume Ash will simply disregard it.
 
I'm probably over-thinking this, but his smack talking is a win-win for him.

If Kolodzik wins, they get the team points and it's all good.

If Ashnault wins, he probably anticipates Ashnault to say something, potentially losing a team point for Rutgers, in which case helping out Princeton in a losing effort.

Possible scenario and somewhat agreed if it happens but I think more so than what happened with John Smith (reputation) AA will hopefully finish the match on a winning note and shake hands. If Ayers continues with this narrative and with other opponents then there is a track record. As another pointed out don't be a dumb dumb hurting your club partner in the process. Rivalry already exists (we all hate PU) and Kolo goes about his business as does AA so let the wrestling speak for itself.

Who is we all? There is nothing to hate about Princeton or their coaching staff. Ayers comments were too specific but generally respectful towards Ashnault. They were more about promoting his wrestler’s strengths and he never put down Ashnault’s skills. Yes, it should be turned into bulletin board material/used as motivation but It doesn’t make Ayers a heel.

Ok its an assumption but as a RU athlete competing against PU every year there wasn't a single person that liked them or their pompousness. Having to go to their campus every other year was the worst. Hoagie Haven was my only saving grace when I could eat it.

There is a bit of fluff in what Ayers is saying to a degree. Kolo has no idea who he's wrestling that week or if they are good?
 
Chris is a good guy and has done a great job getting Princeton to where they are today. He has some very talented kids and they will give us all we can handle Sunday. If he feels his kid is that good I have no problem him stating that fact. Those two are 2-2 against each other so this is the rubber match. Wouldn’t it be cool if they met in the NCAA finals?

This a good take. Some serious overreactions going on over his comments. Guy is trying to build up hype for the match. Judging by the fervor on the board, he did a good job.
