First individual rankings of the regular season!
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
It will be interesting to see where each is at the end of the season. It is sad to see where Turley is ranked.
Make no mistake, I don't like to see him ranked that low but it isnt based on all that much. The only way it will be sad is if he doesnt improve on that ranking throughout the year.
Turley had an incredible run to earn an AA but he was also around 28th in the country entering that tournament. He’s definitely talented with huge upset potential, but while injuries have limited him, a 20-30th ranked wrestler is pretty much what he’s been his whole career. Expecting him to be a top 10 talent for an entire season isn’t realistic even if he does have a podium appearance in his career.
I think he's better than that ranking or at least capable of being much better. The Turley I want to see is the guy in these videos...
Amen to that! I need the dynamic, rough and tough Turley back on the mat.
We would all love to see that Turley, but at this point it’s just fantasy.. he had a Buster Douglas like performance one podium run and that’s that… he’s ranked very appropriately rn until proven otherwise..
I'd say there's a little more to it than "that's that". Seventh in the B1G last year and lost 2-1 in the NCAAs to a national champion says there still hope.
The point is Turkey’s always been a 20th-30th ranked guy while everyone is holding out hope he returns to being a top 10 talent based on one tournament run.. he’s ranked correctly rn and I’d love to see Turley destroy everyone just not going to hope/expect it anymore…. Ok maybe I’ll still hope but then reality sets in..
