Iowa Week!!

It is dubious to me that you are an RU fan but can’t spell Scarlet. That sounds like a petty diss but it is actually an honest question as to what your RU affiliation is. It was probably just a typo. I go back to my point. You nor I have any clue as to what the situation is with Richie relative to his teammates, his weight control or where he and the coaches want him to wrestle. So, please don’t just assume Richie is being selfish or a bad teammate. The interesting question is what actual weight JVB weighed in at Lock Haven. In order to be able to wrestle 157 against Iowa, what weigh would he have had to weigh in at Lock Haven? Anyone know?

159.39
 
Lewis did not go at Loch Haven because he had an injury so it was not that he did not make weight. I decided to speak up so rampant speculation ends. What happens Friday is speculation but Zi would bet JVB wrestles 165 and Lewis wrestles 157 or does not wrestle but cheers us on.
Welll if that’s the case we got no shot in this dual with Lewis out and Marinelli in. Need Lewis to wrestle to win this one.

I could care less how dubious you feel as to whether I'm an RU fan ..I have an opinion as a fan and I said it ..I'm not only one wondering why he didn't wrestle at Loch Haven and why he missed weight the match before that ...it's obvious something is goin on ...pick a weight ...don't have coaches wondering what to do ...it's not fair to the team
 
I don't usually do these, but this is a big one, so here is my guess.

Suriano TF Stickley...............5-0 RU
Delvechio MD Laux...............9-0 RU
MVB dec. Turk......................12-0 RU (50/50 to RU)
Sorenson dec DeLuca..........12-3 RU
Kem dec Lewis.....................12-6 RU
Marinelli dec. JVB.................12-9 RU (50/50 to Iowa)
Pagano dec. Gunther............15-9 RU (50/50 to RU)
Gravina dec Bowman............18-9 RU
Wilcke dec. Mulligan.............18-12 RU (50/50 to Iowa)
Stoll dec. Gross/Normandia...18-15 RU (need to keep Stoll from pinning to win the match)

RU Keys to the match:
1. Bonus at 125/133.
2. Lewis at 157
3. Avoid bonus at 149/285

1. Bonus at 125/133.
2. Lewis at 157
3. Avoid bonus at 149/285
A few corrections:
141- We will not see Turk at 141, Happel will get the nod, edge still should be to MVB;
149 - bonus points for Sorenson;
157 - Fall for Kemmerer ( Lewis at 165)
165 - Lewis dec over Marinelli
174 - Grello

What happened to Grello at 174 ...didn't he beat Pagano a few weeks ago and take that spot
 
So sounds like people “in the know” know Lewis is going to 65 and JVB will probably drop but we will have to suck it up for this week. Seems to be general consensus.

I'm pretty sure if that's the case JVB cannot go 157......Donner or Santos and that won't be pretty

Stoll pinned his last 60 opponents in HS (Minnestoa). Relying on him not pinning our guy is a bad idea. Nick and Scott need to make sure they squeeze every point out of their match.

The only person on here who we all know has inside information said Lewis would either be at 157, or not wrestling due to injury. We just ignoring that? I sure hope he is validated. Lewis surely know how important this is to the team and to the program as a whole.

I am thinking they go with experience for this match. Just a wild guess though. If you put Grello there, I would still call it a toss match.

I have inside information from Mack the Knife and Bonzo that Lewis will be at 165. Just go to any Shore Conference practice and "lern"

Happel gets the nod? Who is your source?
 
If it is true that Lewis is deciding what weight to wrestle and when to wrestle, we don't need him on the team. He had a great world championship. If he can't be a team player, who wants him.. Who knows if the speculation is true? If it is, the coaches should to step up and set an example. The team is more important that a selfish world champ. He would not be where he is if it weren't for the coaches and his teammates. I hope the speculation is wrong. WNG ?

How about we let the Coaching Staff Manage the Team.
 
I will say this, yes there are some new posters popping up in this thread, but just because they are new, does not mean their information and/or posts are not correct. I like most of the regulars always take what new posters have to say with some degree of skepticism, however, in this case they are posting the same things that I have been told.

RL injured ..lol...he wasn't injured at Loch Haven and chose not to wrestle at either weight ...hopefully he realizes how big this match is tomorrow and wrestles somewhere ...then at some point make the decisions as to who wrestles at which weight and stick with it ...to those of you who don't think this is an ongoing issue and that I'm making it up might wanna get your facts straight ...it's an issue !!!

I will take the word of Bill G before I will even listen to some troll who signed up yesterday & has said nothing but poison about RU.

how long does someone have to have been signed up for you to listen to them? Week? Mo? So on your 2nd day on this forum you were a troll? If Ritchie wrestles 165 vs Iowa, can Bill G still be trusted as a truth teller?

Yea some guys are focused on when I signed up ..check how long I've been following these forums ...does it really matter that I chose to finally sign up and say something ..I'm not knocking he team at all ..don't embellish what I'm saying ..RL missing weight is a problem ..whether he does it because he doesn't care or just really wants to go up ..either way ..make a decision and stand by it ..how is saying that poison ..if I was a hater I would not be there tomorro which I will be so get over yourselves ..you don't own this forum and I chose to finally sign up and point out the obvious ..RL is causing a problem whether you wanna admit it or not ...he can't go match to match choosing where or whether he wants to wrestle ... we need him ..no doubt about that but at what cost to team morale ....if you think I'm a troll and know nothing ..ask guys in the room ...he wrestles LH ..we win ..he wrestles tomorrow it helps for sure but to have JVB at his beckon call is crazy ...don't like my opinions then look around dude ..I ain't only one wondering what's up on more then one thread
 
Grappler is back......

Nah, the grammar, vocabulary and sentence structure is noticeably different (better). That said , he was awesome for entertainment value. Although he stirred up a hornets nest more times than not.

“Wondering what’s up” is totally different from wildly speculating that Richie is “choosing where or whether he wants to wrestle” from match to match. Did a coach or RU wrestler tell you that or is that just obvious? Telling us to “ask guys in the room” implies that you have and that they are unhappy with him. If you know something from a direct interaction with a guy on the team then say that you spoke with someone on the team directly. Otherwise you sound like someone stirring up s**t without anything to back it up. You have every right to express your opinion here. But don’t get self righteous when you get called out and asked to provide some kind of proof for your assertions. No embellishments here, just responding to your words.

proof ..what proof do you need ..he missed weight twice and now it's been said here he is going 165 ..why ? I thought he was our 157 ...is he not making weight again tomorro so they are sending him up or does he not wanna face Kemmerer ..as far as ask the room ..Garbarini would know more about that then me ...not sure why I'm being called out for asking why so many different scenarios are being floated ...Scott D 133 Nick S 125 etc ..they all know where they are wrestling ...why is 157-165 any different ...you can use the excuse that he just came back from Poland ..so did others and they wrestled so why didn't he ..newsflash ...it cost us the match ...and again ..check all the RU wrestling threads ..I'm not only one asking why ...
 
I like the fact that Goodale and the wrestlers mention the lack of respect from Iowa. Frankly, those arrogant a-holes don't give respect to any program (even after they lose to them), which is one of the reasons I'd like to see Rutgers put one on them.

To be fair, though, Iowa has wrestled in a sold-out Bryce Jordan Center before and will again this year. And they usually wrestle in a half-full Carver, so they *are* used to wrestling in front of 8000 people.

He hasn’t missed weight twice. This is something u just keep trying to peddle as fact.

You are just using a new name since I am sure that you have been banned in the past, making up stories to discredit one of our wrestlers is SAD, like you!

Call it whatever you want ...he needs to wrestle for us now ..157 or 165 ..make up his mind and do it ..couple weeks ago it was posted that he wanted to go 165 then drop down for nationals ...I didn't post it and actually never even commented on it ...it just seems that it's what is happening now ..he misses weight then expects JVB to either sit or go down at his whim ....it's happening guys ...ask around ...as far as I see he went against Maryland ...that's it....don't use the before U23 and after U23 excuse ...we wrestled Va ..Okl...didn't wrestle ...at Army Inv...didn't wrestle ...at LH ...didn't wrestle ...you guys seem to think I'm stirring up stuff ...clear it up for all of us ...when and what weight is RL gonna wrestle for RU

Really ..you're sure lol...what a joke ...I want what every RU wrestling fan wants ...our best wrestlers to wrestle ....I didn't make him miss weight ..which he did ....either you're clueless or you haven't been following posts here since season started ....there's more then one post regarding this issue and I didn't comment on any of them so get your facts straight ...banned ...banned for what ...someone posted pic of RL in hotel lobby at loch haven ....why didn't he wrestle ....you seem to know so much ..what's the reason he didn't go ..he wasn't hurt ...when you have the real reason ..let us all know

For some reason I’m still taking the bait.
1. Richie missed weight once. We don’t know what the deal was at Lock Haven. WNG said he was nursing an injury. That’s good enough for me. It is clearly a tough cut for Richie. Let it go. If he wrestles 165 tomorrow that proves only that he is wrestling 165 tomorrow not any of your assertions about his character.
2. You are being called out because you make inflammatory statements with nothing behind them and just continue to repeat them hoping they will come to be accepted as valid. A case in point; In response to my questioning your source/rationale for your statement implying the team is unhappy with Richie, you don’t offer anything. You do say that we should ask WNG because he would know better. He would know better. He has proven to be credible. Since he, nor anyone else, has said the team is unhappy with Richie, I’ll assert that it is fair to call you out on that. I’ll also call you out on this one for using a classic propaganda technique (probably why people think you may be a troll) of making a baseless insinuation and then trying to package it as an accepted valid question. You are the only one who said the team was unhappy with Richie. You then say others have said it too (where?).You then try to validate it by associating it with WNG hoping he’ll answer it and make it a legit question. Total propaganda. For more examples of this look at your most recent posts. Throwing out what you say other posters have been saying about Richie’s intentions. Where? It’s still up there if it was said. Link to it and then we will debate the comments on their merits, if they exist and if they have merit. Otherwise pipe down.

Why did Joey McKenna travel to Cliff Keen with Ohio St. but not wrestle? Must be selfish and missed weight too.........or could there be another reason?

It's him after taking some University of Phoenix English 101.
 
Obviously the line-up is stronger with RL at 157 and JVB 165. Just curious what the team (wrestlers) thinks of RL moving up to 165.

That being said will be rooting for RL to win tonight at 165.
