NCAA Wrestling Finals on ESPN 3/19 7p.m. central time(Watch the heavyweight at 9:40ishp.m.)

[Meathead Jock]

The heavyweight from NC State Nick Gwiazdowski is a stud; he is a senior and he has been on Twitter for the past year saying that he is torn between WWE and MMA after graduation.

 

[Meathead Jock]

They are on 197lb weight class right now, heavyweight matches up next.

Yea they love the heavyweights. He said something about he started to take speech/communications classes to prepare to be more comfortable for either career. He is on a 88 match win streak right now which is unheard of for a heavyweight in the NCAA to my memory.

 

[Almighty One]

I went to class with him. Nice kid

Made me jump in class because he sneezed right when I was about to go to sleep though lol

NC State or high school? From the couple of interviews I heard (He was one of Front Row Brians first guest ha) he seemed real polite.

Heavyweights starting right after this commercial break; for anyone looking to watch the longest active win streak in wrestling.

The finals are tomorrow so you should set the DVR; this is the last match of the Semi's tonight.

Gwiaz vs Snyder will be awesome as long as we get it!

The guy mentioned he wants to do MMA or WWE and there isn't any MMA on. Mods can move it; I just wanted to give people a chance to watch a potential future star beings there isn't any fights on.

Why is the world champ seeded second

Because Gwiaz is the 2 time defending undefeated college champ and the world champ is at 213 pounds and he was going to redshirt this year but instead agreed to wrestle this season but only the important matches.

 

[subMOA]

Nice stalling

I never understood what redshirting means, care to explain?

 

[JustOnce]

oh so it would be world champ vs world champ at lower weight class if they both go through?

I usually never watch heavyweights, usually watches under 74kgs and below, are they done I'd imagine at this point tonight?

 

[Sgt Smith]

Should be a great match tomorrow.

In college they can give you a scholarship to pay for your school for 5 years; although you can only compete for 4 of those 5 years. So in football incoming freshmen often redshirt to get stronger then they have years 2-5 to play in games. In wrestling really good wrestlers sometimes use their redshirt year whenever their is an olympic trial going on that season so they can focus on training for the olympic style and not focus on the college style. Snyder (world champ) was going to sit this year out so it wouldn't count towards his 4 years of active eligibility, instead he is competing but he didn't wrestle in any of the "unimportant" matches.

Wrestling is so boring to watch. I'd still encourage others to watch. They almost pulled wrestling out of the Olympics because no one was watching and its not good for business.
