I guess it's the comparison of where we were at the start of dresser years

To now. I get to sit down and watch a finalist every Saturday night of the tourney. We have multiple people in the semis with non -zero chances of advancing to the finals. The program is stacked with talent throughout and every weight has national qualifiers and all American contenders either wrestling or redshirting or arriving next year. You sit through enough American university or George mason duals and seasons and your standards get set I suppose (and not intended as a shot at those programs) Big names like Michigan or Cornell aren't producing finalist. Other programs are staring down potential loses in relevance (Mizzou post O'Toole if Sinclair doesn't become the guy) Minnesota seems to have a good one in mcNelly but it wasn't as rosy mid season. Northern Iowa is looking at a slide backwards too and isu for all they've spent on dresser and team has no one to replace carr. Again maybe it's expectations and perspective, but this run reminds me of the tyrod years where folks may not realize how good we've had it til it's gone.

Simply giving my opinion

I get your rationale

8 out of 10, regular season ups and downs and NCAAT was what I expected ...

This season lacked consistency throughout the lineup. Seemed like the team

IMHO it was a step backwards
Baltimore Hokie 03/24/25 05:29 PM ET
8 outta 10

I tend to be a pessimist but imo it was solidly okay. 6.5/10

I think NCST won this season
