I don't see Hip as a stretch at all

He's a freshman, and it's his first tournament, so you obviously can't guarantee anything, but he's a killer. One loss in OT on the year, and his hit list is starting to look pretty damn good. Peyton Keller, Sonny Santiago, Caleb Fish. Those are bloodround and placement type matches. And outside of one minute at the end where he gassed against Fish, he was pretty dominant. Can't wait for the Ed Scott matchup to see how he's improved since last year.

So there's a lot to unpack here...

All the matches matter... the only people that say these matches don't

How to say I know nothing about wrestling without saying it
Hokie havoc • 01/12/25 11:16 AM ET
Tell that to PSU and Okie State.

EV was a 27 seed when he AAd. And Henson lost twice last year.**
TartanHokie • 01/12/25 06:45 PM ET
PSU and OSU guys will lose their spot if they don't bring their A game

In fairness

Starocci is 78-4 in his career. Washington and Kemerer freshman year.
TartanHokie • 01/12/25 06:59 PM ET
Thanks for the stat corrections.

National championship
Hokie havoc • 01/12/25 04:52 PM ET
We really need to stop comparing ourselves to Penn State.
TartanHokie • 01/12/25 07:17 PM ET
Nobody is expecting us to replicate PSU we just want to see the attitude
donjfs3 • 01/12/25 10:32 PM ET
It's not just in wrestling
UpperQuad • 01/12/25 08:12 AM ET
Good conclusion.
GreenvilleVT • 01/11/25 06:53 PM ET
thanks! I appreciate your opinion. Well written too. **
pine52x • 01/11/25 06:27 PM ET
I agree with what both of you

Andy isn’t Caleb and Caleb isn’t Andy.
GreenvilleVT • 01/11/25 06:58 PM ET
Used Andy
Fstalker • 01/11/25 03:44 PM ET
Not dismissing what you are saying as I think on the whole, that's true,

I don't see Hip as a stretch at all ◄
Hikinghokie • 01/12/25 01:56 PM ET
I’ll worry about TJ when the effort or fire isn’t there.
GreenvilleVT • 01/11/25 07:03 PM ET
Why is he wrestling at all then?
tigerpark135 • 01/12/25 02:47 PM ET
Maybe he is recovered and is building back.
GreenvilleVT • 01/12/25 02:50 PM ET
Complete nonsense
tigerpark135 • 01/12/25 03:49 PM ET
There are also a great deal more examples of wrestlers continuing to
GreenvilleVT • 01/12/25 06:45 PM ET
Sure. I agree but he’s gonna need to start winning or he’s at risk to not
goodbadugly • 01/11/25 09:03 PM ET
Well said. After Mizzou and Rutgers they had my hopes up
