Gopher Wrestling 2024-2025



What was a surer Minnesota championship moment: Gable winning tonight or Gary Anderson making that field goal?
 

You know what usually happens to underclassmen with great numbers on an underachieving team.
Some times the better team/competitor falls to the superior game plan plan perfectly executed. It happened to Gable. The OSU wrestler kept it close and seized his opportunity at the end—think of the two third period goals in the Miracle victory over the Soviets despite being outshot 39-17 for the game.

Always expect the most shocking, bad outcome and you won't be nearly as disappointed

I just don’t think Gable thought there was anyway that he could be taken down. He could’ve easily stalled out the match and won. He beats him 99/100 times, but that’s the great thing about sports.
 

I hope McEnelly stays. Kid is a stud and that match he had Starocci was terrific. Hope he can get revenge at NCAA's.
Is there an opening next season in Iowa at his weight? How about Penn State? We all know the offers will be coming from other programs, if they haven't already.
 

Excited for the Gopher lineup next season. Got some strong bodies at the upper weights, with Millard, McEnelly, Nelson, Hopke, Whiting, Riddle, as well as Vombaur at 141. Could struggle with lower weights but who knows what portal or recruits will bring
 



Speaking of lower weights, what could have been with a guy like Aaron Nagao. Guy starts out as an AA for Minnesota and bolts for Penn state the first chance he has. With Ono’s recent commitment to Penn state o bet Nagao isn’t even a thought for anyone at Penn state. Sometimes the grass is not always greener my friend.
