Speaker 1 (00:27):
edition of the cav corner.
Um, kind of touch on this alittle bit.
I just kind of figured it wassomething that uh need to be
done, right.
Um, I, a lot of teams have hadtheir own coverage.
I know that there's some accguys that cover, but I didn't
(00:47):
see anything.
But if I'm missing it, pleasesomeone let me know.
Um, I didn't see anybodytalking about the cats.
Obviously, now I know liam isgoing to be going to the
university of virginia, so,partner, just kind of perfect,
kind of fit.
So, um, talking to the coachesoff to the side here and they're
just kind of bringing up thingsthat you know I want to talk
(01:08):
about.
I'm not gonna, I'm not anumbers guy, right, it's on my
gig.
I don't uh, I don't put numberstogether.
I do look at numbers.
I mean they're helpful, right,just to kind of maybe talk about
certain things.
So I will have some stuffpulled up and um, just kind of
seeing, obviously, how uh thingshere go pre-recorded.
Hopefully this goes all right.
But, um, we're gonna break down,you know, just a couple matches
(01:30):
maybe we'll go down and justkind of list.
So I coach, right, I coachsoccer.
Um, we put a lineup togetherbefore every game.
Uh, this is exactly what wewant.
This is the lineup that I needfor these guys.
Right, you have lineup turnedin.
Guys start walking the field,they start getting warmed up and
(01:52):
a couple of them aren't gettingwarmed up right away because
trainer said that they're notgood to go.
They got hurt in gym class,something like that.
So these lineups are alwaystentative, right, there's no,
I'm not going to say this is setin stone.
Um, but we're gonna.
I'm gonna base it off of theguys who have been starting so
far, the guys that have been inthe starting lineup
consecutively.
Um, they've been throwing guysin the mix here and there,
(02:13):
especially with the tournamentsand things like that, and uh,
but I just want to make it clearanybody that we talk about
saying, hey, this guy, we'relooking forward to this guy,
looking forward to this guy.
That's tentative, that couldchange, but these are the guys
that we're hoping to see because, as far as the lineup goes,
there's a lot of good thingsgoing on.
(02:36):
That's kind of why I wasexcited to do this, because just
watching the team progressingthrough the year here, some guys
had some struggles, but they'rewrestling tough guys and in
college every match is astruggle, right, it's not high
school where you can.
You know that the whole monthof January you're going to blow
through it all Cause you knowthat tournament, you know the
(02:57):
guys, every guy's hard, so weknow that.
I'm not out to judge anybody'swrestling abilities.
These guys have been workingtheir butts off and that's the
biggest thing that I've noticedis that these guys are working
really hard.
They've been progressing reallywell, you know, plagued with a
couple injuries here and there,and that's why we also we bring
(03:17):
up the tentative lineup Right.
So, without further ado, we'llkind of start out.
We have our next opponent isgoing to be NC state.
We just watched a duel.
Now the score look like theygot murdered, right, like it
looked, and I wouldn't saymurder, but it looks like you
got beat up pretty bad, right,they got beat.
They got beat up pretty bad, um, but NC state still, you know,
(03:41):
I think they're listed at numberfive.
I wouldn't put them there, um,but I wouldn't put them below
seven, right, and I think Coachmentioned that in his interview
that they're top seven, but Ithink they're listed as five.
I don't agree with the five,but we'll leave it at that.
We'll leave it at that.
But Virginia coming in, this isgoing to be a really good
litmus test.
(04:02):
With this duel you got some ofthe top-ranked guys at NC State
in the country.
One of them got beat the othernight but that's why this is
such a good litmus test to me,because of a lot of the upsets
that have been coming around, alot of the guys who you wouldn't
expect to do certain things.
(04:23):
They're doing them and ithappened in a big match right.
So anything's possible rightnow.
With that being said, up at 125,we know that our guy KV and
Roller, he is dynamic.
He's fun to watch.
He's watching him move his feetlike he's really letting his
(04:43):
feet and he's just theconfidence that he has when he's
moving.
It's been really fun watchingin the season he's he's watching
him move his feet Like he'sreally letting his feet and he's
just the confidence that he haswhen he's moving.
It's been really fun watchingin the season.
He's killed it.
I mean I don't want to baseespecially this duel.
I'm not going to use too muchinformation based off of
something that happened three,four weeks ago.
A lot changed but it's stillthe progression that happens and
watching.
I mean he's been killing.
It so happens, and watching, Imean, he's been killing it, so
(05:06):
that's going to be a fun match.
Um, let me just pull up someinformation here that I have.
Um, so he would most likely begoing up against, uh, vincent
robinson just had a huge match,right, so I'm excited to see how
he throws it down.
I'm seeing things that there's,you know like, uh like
predictions as far as scoreslike 14-5.
I don't see that.
(05:27):
I see probably maybe a 10-5score, but man, anything is
possible.
Kavion Roller has been killingit and I think if he's on fire
and he does the right things,he's going to be doing the same
things he's been doing allseason, right, just amazing us
and it's been really fun towatch him.
So I'm excited for that matchup.
That is going to be 125.
(05:47):
Now, again, this is all basedoff of just you know, things
that I I feel, mainly becauseI'm not going to sit and break
down numbers I'm not going tosit.
I mean, I've watched these.
I've watched a lot of theirmatches, so I'm noticing a lot
of really good high-levelattacks, single legs, scoring on
(06:07):
them.
When these guys are on pointwith their tie-ups and when
they're on point with theirshots.
They're really hard to stopright.
I mean, in college it's hardjust to get a takedown.
Getting in is all right.
Finishing is the other thingand these guys have been able to
come out a lot of times in theduels that they've been in and
just score right away.
That's the biggest thing to meis that is the, not so much the
(06:30):
scores when they're scoring andhow they're scoring.
Now drag that out through therest of the match.
You know score some more points, just to just add them up.
So I'm really excited for the125 match now 133.
You know we got the.
We were down.
We just got to see these guyspractice, but just kind of
watching these guys have funtogether.
Gable uh porter's one of them at133.
(06:51):
Um, he's got kyrene.
You know, uh, kyrene just tooka tough loss.
I believe it was when he gotpinned, I think.
I can't recall a lot, a lot ofstuff going through my head as
far as just talking about theseguys, but it was kind of a
surprise.
So, with that being said, Idon't necessarily think that
this is out of Gable Porter'srange to be able to take a guy
(07:15):
down and dominate and maybe geta decision of like a three to
four or something like that.
I could definitely see thishappening.
Gable Porter has been.
I think he was injured, Ibelieve at the Southern Scuffle.
I think it was like aconcussion, because watching
that video it looked like Ididn't see heads hit, but I
thought I saw him hit his headon the guy's tailbone.
(07:36):
That's me.
I was just watching it a coupletimes.
I didn't go back and replay andjust sit there and stare at it,
but it looked like he hit itpretty good, so hopefully he's
good enough Again.
That's why we're talking aboutthe tentative lineup.
So I'm excited for that one.
I think he's got an opportunity.
I'm never going to say no tothese guys right, and it's not
even just because of these guys,it's because of the rest of the
(07:57):
season, the rest of the NCAAseason, where there's just
surprise after surprise aftersurprise.
These, just surprise aftersurprise after surprise.
These guys are capable, fullycapable.
So very excited about one threethrough with Gable Porter.
We'll see what happens.
You know one of those nights,but it could be one of those
nights where he puts, puts hisname up on the board with a W.
I really think he can do it.
(08:19):
I think the biggest thing to meagain is just a gas tank with
some of these guys, especially aguy like Kyrene, and being able
to just get score points reallyscored him right, score him
right away and just control thematch.
So okay, so that is 133.
Now come to 141.
This is our boy, uh, dylansedano here.
(08:40):
Uh, hopefully I'm saying yourguys names right, don't kill me.
Feel free to message me tocorrect me on what they are.
We talk about that here in thestate of Wisconsin a lot,
because there's just a lot ofdifferent names and you can't
always get them all right.
Hopefully I got it right.
Obviously they've been sayingit plenty because you just
killed that Southern Scuffle.
So we have a Southern Scufflechamp coming in number 29.
(09:01):
Looks like Tyler Tracy.
I think Sedano's got this handsdown.
I'm hearing just a decision.
I'm thinking tech.
That's what I'm going with.
So that's going to be.
That's going to be five pointsfor us on that one.
Right, I think up on by cave on, I think, cave on I.
I really think he can dosomething here.
I'm really rolling on your cave.
(09:24):
Y'all just give me something.
Let's go, let's let's do thisone and give us one of those, uh
, one of those upsets.
I think a lot of these guys cando it, but I think, if anything
, kv on is going to be the one.
But Dylan's going to kill it.
I think he's going to do morethan just a decision.
I think he's.
I think he's going to either.
So my confidence is in him.
He just killed it at SouthernScuffle, so let's just keep that
(09:46):
momentum going.
Then we got 149.
I believe it's going to be JackGeoffrey Should be, we'll see.
Injury.
No, I don't know what's goingon with everybody.
They don't.
They haven't told I haven'tasked, they're not telling me.
I'm just, hopefully everybody'sokay, exactly if who's got what
(10:12):
, but again, tentative.
So with jack geoffrey, he'snumber 34 and what I'm seeing,
number 36 is, according towrestle stat.
Um, I you know.
Honestly, I think this is a good, good match for jack to be able
to pull off.
Um, hey, you know I justnoticed this the other day too
that jack geoffrey, michaelgeoffrey, there's a.
Is there a?
Correct me if I'm wrong, goahead and message me.
I know a lot.
I saw a couple of the momsfollow me.
Is there a victor geoffrey?
(10:32):
And there's geoffreyseverywhere.
Once I saw these guys like it's.
I see geoffreys popping up onall kinds of brackets everywhere
, so it's great to see becausethese guys are fun to watch.
So I'm really pulling for jackon this one.
I really believe he's going tobe able to get, like, I believe,
a major, if not a decision, butI think you can get a major out
of this one.
Wrestlestad doesn't think so.
I think jack can definitelypull it off because I think he's
(10:55):
coming in on fire along withhis brother, michael um.
This guy he's pretty good and Ikind of talked to a coach about
a little about him and he'slike man.
When he is on, he is on and I Icouldn't agree more watching
some of his matches.
Man, his intensity, especiallyfor 157.
This is a place I know.
(11:16):
Liam wrestles around 165.
He's, you know, practicing theguys 157, so he is on his toes,
he's fast, he's fast and he'sstrong.
So it's really fun to see himwhen he's on top of his game and
he's in that, you know, stateof flow and it's just going.
A lot of what I watched recentlywas the Southern scuffle stuff.
I know a lot of the guys.
A couple of guys were at theFNM.
(11:36):
They did great too.
So I'm really hoping a lot ofthese guys are willing to carry
that momentum along and are ableto get that done.
So Michael Giaffri is probablygoing to be winding up against
Ed Scott.
We'll see who knows what guysyou know how coaches are they
want to throw a mix in it.
They want this guy to do thishere, but right now they got Ed
(11:59):
Scott, I believe would be at 157against, I think, michael.
This is one the rankings showdifferently.
I think Michael could pullsomething off if he can, if he
can keep the gas tank and handfight really well, especially
against that Scott.
I think he's able to pullsomething off.
It's tough match so we'll seeagain.
It's one of those seasons whereI think ever since I've noticed
(12:22):
the talk that ever since, likeSpencer Lee got beat like 125,
started going crazy and itseemed like every other weight
class after that just startedgoing nuts and I know we've had
some fun ones to watch here andthere, but it's been crazy.
I think it's been crazy in thepast year, year and a half,
where guys you wouldn't expectto get big wins are getting big
wins and pulling clutch thepoint like the end of the you
(12:42):
know, the end of the thirdperiod.
They're done by one, they gofor it, right, that kind of
thing.
So this is exciting.
I think michael's gonna be oneof those exciting guys.
165 this is my guy, nickhamilton, uh, acc champ, right.
So again the rankings show thempretty close, but I don't think
this match is going to be veryclose.
I think next, and if nick'shealthy, um, you know, I think
(13:05):
we knew that he was a littleinjured back a couple events ago
, but I think he looks like hecould still be ready to roll.
That's me.
I don't know what coaches arethinking, I don't know what they
got going on, but I think he'sready to roll.
I still think he takes this onehandily.
They're saying Derek Fields, Idon't buy it.
(13:25):
I think Hamilton pulls this offby decision, I'd say by three,
by a takedown, guessing, justbased off of some of the stuff
that you know, the commonopponents and stuff like that
that they've wrestled Again.
I've been reading through someof the stuff.
I've been doing a littleresearch.
I've been trying to do as muchas I can because new guy, right,
I'm the new guy in town.
(13:47):
I'm trying to make sure thatgot some information correct.
I'm going to get some stuffwrong.
And again, guys, if there'sanything you want to correct me
on, feel free, please do.
Um, you can reach out to visitvision quest original vision
quest podcast original atgmailcom.
Message me on Instagram, youcan message me on Twitter,
message me anywhere that's onsocial media.
Let me know.
If there's some corrections Ineed to make, I'm definitely
(14:08):
willing to get them because I Iwant to represent these guys
well.
So, um, when it comes to nickhamilton and the injuries, I I
still even even he, the guy's agrinder.
I mean, just watching him atthe practices that he's had, um,
when were down there, I meanhe's a grinder, he is a guy
that's willing to go.
I mean I think he's hopefullyLiam's going to be able to, you
(14:33):
know, follow up behind him whenhe goes there, because that's
the guy that I want, you know,liam, to be able to follow
behind.
But again, hopefully he'shealthy, fingers crossed.
Scott Derrick Fields, I thinkyou know healthy.
Nick Hamilton comes in.
Even if he's a little sore orsomething like that.
I think he still takes it.
I'll give him the 7-6.
We'll do that.
(14:54):
Let's see who we got.
So tentatively, rocco Cantino174, could have Matthew
Singleton.
Again, they're common opponentsand just like the score
differences, a lot of times Ican't, I can't put a lot to that
, I can't act like that's, likethe the be all, end all, because
(15:16):
these change right, and that'swhy I didn't really want to look
too far back on differentevents.
Now, again, the progress isprogress, but a lot of times you
can see that progress just in,you know, like in the southern
scuffle or in the F and M andwherever you know.
I think there are a coupleother spots that some of the
guys you don't typically see out, but with these guys it's been,
it's been really fun to watch.
(15:37):
So that's why I'm reallypulling a lot for these, you
know, as far as when it comes tothe ranking sides and things
like that, I'm really pullingfor, uh, virginia, because these
guys, again fun to watch.
So, uh, rocco cantino, it isn'tpicked to win.
I mean, we're talking, they'reshowing number 74, number 19, eh
, you know, again, numbers,right, get, you gotta have faith
(16:01):
.
You gotta have faith in theseguys, and I do wholeheartedly.
Um, I think the, uh, I thinkthe the options of rocco cantino
taking this pretty good, prettygood.
So I, good luck to him.
Um, again, these guys.
I hope we're gonna kill it andthey're gonna throw us all for a
loop and just show us exactlywhere it's at.
So, uh, 184.
(16:22):
It looks like we're gonna havehave Griffin Gamble, possibly
which great.
I just watched one of hismatches, again from, I believe
the Scuffle Looked great.
I'm down If he's healthy too.
Again, I don't know all theinjuries.
I just don't buy a lot of timesthe numbers, the upsets that
(16:42):
have been happening.
I get all the confidence, butit's going to be a tough match.
I mean it's still.
I mean still dealing fish backright, it's uh, it's not gonna
be an easy match, but I'm alwayspulling for these guys and I
think when it boils down to it,if you, 184 is tricky for me,
like when these guys get bigger,I'm not used to, um, slower
matches, so it's always.
(17:03):
It's always about the hand fightright bigger guys.
It's a lot like a greco and Idon't want to act like I'm an
expert here.
Exactly in college wrestling,because I'm not a coach, didn't
wrestle things like that.
This is all just based off ofthe experience that I have with
just wrestling in general andthe things that I've seen Liam
go through and whatnot.
(17:23):
But he's smaller, start gettingbigger, and watching these guys
it's a lot.
Unfortunately I call it uhdancing.
Um, it's just a lot of upward,you know, upper body, just hand
fighting and trying to get goodposition.
They're big guys.
Right, the game's changed alittle bit, you know.
I mean guys are faster now andthings.
Things happen a little morequickly when they're shooting,
you know, and I totally get that, um, but it's sometimes it's
(17:47):
all about mind over matter withthese guys.
It's just it's just a handfight, hand fight a man.
When they turn it on, they turnon.
And Griffin is one of thoseguys that turns it on.
So in watching a couple of hismatches, like I've never you
know there's a lot of guys thatshoot quick, but like his single
leg is pretty quick, I I'llgive him that one, for 184 has
(18:09):
pretty quick single leg.
So I I'm excited to see himpull something off.
It's gonna be a tough match.
All the faith in him, though.
Um hopefully gets it done.
We got uh number oh wait, 197.
Uh number 98.
Again number 36 christian knoppfrom nc state, and then we'll
have.
We'll see what do.
We got Possibly Shula, it lookslike.
(18:30):
We'll see what that looks likein the on the lineup here.
So, oh yeah, there we go,little, little closer matchup,
but still at the same point.
That's a, that's a good.
It's a good call on the on theprobable.
I think that'd it's a crazyseason.
(18:53):
It's a crazy season.
I enjoy watching these guys.
So it's it's going to be funnow that, um, uh, this ACC runs
coming up and just watching someof the, the upset matches that
have happened this year.
I'm really excited to see this.
So actually I think can do it.
That's a a tentative list thatI have.
So, again, I, I, I, I put allthe 197 guys just to kind of see
(19:14):
what happens.
But it's probably going to beMax Shula, but good luck to him.
And then we got heavyweight.
Gabe Christensen Watched one ofhis matches tonight too.
Looks solid.
He's got a tough Isaac Trumbullthough.
So this one I'm definitelygoing to want.
I really want to watch, becauseGabe Christensen really put it
(19:36):
down to was a Dalton Meyer, Ibelieve, a Bellarmine, just
control.
And that guy is massive, right.
And watching him take controlof that match in the beginning,
I mean it was unlucky.
But watching him take controlof that match, I mean he was in
a single leg and he had him likein the first I don't know first
period, I believe it was.
But I'm really impressed byGabe Christensen.
(19:58):
Again, I'm a new guy Just tryingto pick things out and just
kind of see, based off ofmatchups and a couple numbers,
and just based off of like whatI see in the matches themselves,
I'm excited.
So, with that being said, Idon't know that we pull off a
win.
I got to hope you guys do.
I'm definitely going to bethere rooting for you.
(20:18):
But we got a tough NC statewatching that.
That duel against uh, uh,against uh, osu against Oklahoma
state, that was, uh, someimpressive matches, some some
matches that we didn't thinkwere going to go certain ways.
But it also shows that there'san opportunity, right.
So we're really excited,especially in this house.
We're going to be watchingevery minute of that duel
(20:44):
because we're super excited forthese guys to throw down.
It's a great time to be able towatch these guys and I can't
stress enough to get to the gym.
Uh, get to the gym.
So the event I believe it's ais it a bucket hat giveaway?
It says so.
It's at the aquatic fitnesscenter.
I believe mem is getting fixed.
Can't wait for that to be done,excited about that, but it
(21:06):
looks like it's a bucket hatgiveaway and it's going to be an
aquatic fitness fitness center.
And being at that university,walking into there, I was highly
impressed, very, very I I wouldsay sorry to describe it was.
It was just, it was.
(21:27):
I was in awe.
It was just kind of being atthat, the university and how it
was, uh, put together as far asthe age and just the history
behind it, um, but the aquaticsfitness center was just it kind
of blew me away, just thetechnology that they have
integrated into everything andjust the great campus that they
had.
So I'm really excited to kindof go down this journey now with
(21:50):
Liam, and my wife and I aresuper excited for him.
We're really excited for theseguys because, again, just
watching the progress that theseguys have had throughout the
year and knowing just kind ofthe trenches that they've come
up through, you know to be ableto get to where they're at now,
it's hey, it's time to go, it'sACC time, right, but I'm going
(22:11):
to end it here, guys, hopefully.
I hope you guys enjoyed it.
Sometimes I ramble on about acouple things, but it'll get
better, um, I promise, but thesewill always be recorded.
Uh, just, I'm going to do itevery week before the duel, um.
So you know, tonight is just alittle weird one, I think it's
like what time is it?
10, 30 at night?
Um, just kind of got off mybutt and did it and felt like
(22:34):
doing it late at night.
So it just.
Uh, I hope you guys enjoyed it.
We're excited to see the restof the season.
We got NC state, after thatStanford and then we got
Virginia tech.
So we got a good round of ACCcoming up.
So, guys, pay attention, staytuned.
And I again, I hope you guysenjoyed it.
We're going to end it there.
We're just going to kind ofclose out with some music and
(22:55):
talk to you guys later.
Thank you.
edition of the cav corner.
Um, kind of touch on this alittle bit.
I just kind of figured it wassomething that uh need to be
done, right.
Um, I, a lot of teams have hadtheir own coverage.
I know that there's some accguys that cover, but I didn't
(00:47):
see anything.
But if I'm missing it, pleasesomeone let me know.
Um, I didn't see anybodytalking about the cats.
Obviously, now I know liam isgoing to be going to the
university of virginia, so,partner, just kind of perfect,
kind of fit.
So, um, talking to the coachesoff to the side here and they're
just kind of bringing up thingsthat you know I want to talk
(01:08):
about.
I'm not gonna, I'm not anumbers guy, right, it's on my
gig.
I don't uh, I don't put numberstogether.
I do look at numbers.
I mean they're helpful, right,just to kind of maybe talk about
certain things.
So I will have some stuffpulled up and um, just kind of
seeing, obviously, how uh thingshere go pre-recorded.
Hopefully this goes all right.
But, um, we're gonna break down,you know, just a couple matches
(01:30):
maybe we'll go down and justkind of list.
So I coach, right, I coachsoccer.
Um, we put a lineup togetherbefore every game.
Uh, this is exactly what wewant.
This is the lineup that I needfor these guys.
Right, you have lineup turnedin.
Guys start walking the field,they start getting warmed up and
(01:52):
a couple of them aren't gettingwarmed up right away because
trainer said that they're notgood to go.
They got hurt in gym class,something like that.
So these lineups are alwaystentative, right, there's no,
I'm not going to say this is setin stone.
Um, but we're gonna.
I'm gonna base it off of theguys who have been starting so
far, the guys that have been inthe starting lineup
consecutively.
Um, they've been throwing guysin the mix here and there,
(02:13):
especially with the tournamentsand things like that, and uh,
but I just want to make it clearanybody that we talk about
saying, hey, this guy, we'relooking forward to this guy,
looking forward to this guy.
That's tentative, that couldchange, but these are the guys
that we're hoping to see because, as far as the lineup goes,
there's a lot of good thingsgoing on.
(02:36):
That's kind of why I wasexcited to do this, because just
watching the team progressingthrough the year here, some guys
had some struggles, but they'rewrestling tough guys and in
college every match is astruggle, right, it's not high
school where you can.
You know that the whole monthof January you're going to blow
through it all Cause you knowthat tournament, you know the
(02:57):
guys, every guy's hard, so weknow that.
I'm not out to judge anybody'swrestling abilities.
These guys have been workingtheir butts off and that's the
biggest thing that I've noticedis that these guys are working
really hard.
They've been progressing reallywell, you know, plagued with a
couple injuries here and there,and that's why we also we bring
(03:17):
up the tentative lineup Right.
So, without further ado, we'llkind of start out.
We have our next opponent isgoing to be NC state.
We just watched a duel.
Now the score look like theygot murdered, right, like it
looked, and I wouldn't saymurder, but it looks like you
got beat up pretty bad, right,they got beat.
They got beat up pretty bad, um, but NC state still, you know,
(03:41):
I think they're listed at numberfive.
I wouldn't put them there, um,but I wouldn't put them below
seven, right, and I think Coachmentioned that in his interview
that they're top seven, but Ithink they're listed as five.
I don't agree with the five,but we'll leave it at that.
We'll leave it at that.
But Virginia coming in, this isgoing to be a really good
litmus test.
(04:02):
With this duel you got some ofthe top-ranked guys at NC State
in the country.
One of them got beat the othernight but that's why this is
such a good litmus test to me,because of a lot of the upsets
that have been coming around, alot of the guys who you wouldn't
expect to do certain things.
(04:23):
They're doing them and ithappened in a big match right.
So anything's possible rightnow.
With that being said, up at 125,we know that our guy KV and
Roller, he is dynamic.
He's fun to watch.
He's watching him move his feetlike he's really letting his
(04:43):
feet and he's just theconfidence that he has when he's
moving.
It's been really fun watchingin the season he's he's watching
him move his feet Like he'sreally letting his feet and he's
just the confidence that he haswhen he's moving.
It's been really fun watchingin the season.
He's killed it.
I mean I don't want to baseespecially this duel.
I'm not going to use too muchinformation based off of
something that happened three,four weeks ago.
A lot changed but it's stillthe progression that happens and
watching.
I mean he's been killing.
It so happens, and watching, Imean, he's been killing it, so
(05:06):
that's going to be a fun match.
Um, let me just pull up someinformation here that I have.
Um, so he would most likely begoing up against, uh, vincent
robinson just had a huge match,right, so I'm excited to see how
he throws it down.
I'm seeing things that there's,you know like, uh like
predictions as far as scoreslike 14-5.
I don't see that.
(05:27):
I see probably maybe a 10-5score, but man, anything is
possible.
Kavion Roller has been killingit and I think if he's on fire
and he does the right things,he's going to be doing the same
things he's been doing allseason, right, just amazing us
and it's been really fun towatch him.
So I'm excited for that matchup.
That is going to be 125.
(05:47):
Now, again, this is all basedoff of just you know, things
that I I feel, mainly becauseI'm not going to sit and break
down numbers I'm not going tosit.
I mean, I've watched these.
I've watched a lot of theirmatches, so I'm noticing a lot
of really good high-levelattacks, single legs, scoring on
(06:07):
them.
When these guys are on pointwith their tie-ups and when
they're on point with theirshots.
They're really hard to stopright.
I mean, in college it's hardjust to get a takedown.
Getting in is all right.
Finishing is the other thingand these guys have been able to
come out a lot of times in theduels that they've been in and
just score right away.
That's the biggest thing to meis that is the, not so much the
(06:30):
scores when they're scoring andhow they're scoring.
Now drag that out through therest of the match.
You know score some more points, just to just add them up.
So I'm really excited for the125 match now 133.
You know we got the.
We were down.
We just got to see these guyspractice, but just kind of
watching these guys have funtogether.
Gable uh porter's one of them at133.
(06:51):
Um, he's got kyrene.
You know, uh, kyrene just tooka tough loss.
I believe it was when he gotpinned, I think.
I can't recall a lot, a lot ofstuff going through my head as
far as just talking about theseguys, but it was kind of a
surprise.
So, with that being said, Idon't necessarily think that
this is out of Gable Porter'srange to be able to take a guy
(07:15):
down and dominate and maybe geta decision of like a three to
four or something like that.
I could definitely see thishappening.
Gable Porter has been.
I think he was injured, Ibelieve at the Southern Scuffle.
I think it was like aconcussion, because watching
that video it looked like Ididn't see heads hit, but I
thought I saw him hit his headon the guy's tailbone.
(07:36):
That's me.
I was just watching it a coupletimes.
I didn't go back and replay andjust sit there and stare at it,
but it looked like he hit itpretty good, so hopefully he's
good enough Again.
That's why we're talking aboutthe tentative lineup.
So I'm excited for that one.
I think he's got an opportunity.
I'm never going to say no tothese guys right, and it's not
even just because of these guys,it's because of the rest of the
(07:57):
season, the rest of the NCAAseason, where there's just
surprise after surprise aftersurprise.
These, just surprise aftersurprise after surprise.
These guys are capable, fullycapable.
So very excited about one threethrough with Gable Porter.
We'll see what happens.
You know one of those nights,but it could be one of those
nights where he puts, puts hisname up on the board with a W.
I really think he can do it.
(08:19):
I think the biggest thing to meagain is just a gas tank with
some of these guys, especially aguy like Kyrene, and being able
to just get score points reallyscored him right, score him
right away and just control thematch.
So okay, so that is 133.
Now come to 141.
This is our boy, uh, dylansedano here.
(08:40):
Uh, hopefully I'm saying yourguys names right, don't kill me.
Feel free to message me tocorrect me on what they are.
We talk about that here in thestate of Wisconsin a lot,
because there's just a lot ofdifferent names and you can't
always get them all right.
Hopefully I got it right.
Obviously they've been sayingit plenty because you just
killed that Southern Scuffle.
So we have a Southern Scufflechamp coming in number 29.
(09:01):
Looks like Tyler Tracy.
I think Sedano's got this handsdown.
I'm hearing just a decision.
I'm thinking tech.
That's what I'm going with.
So that's going to be.
That's going to be five pointsfor us on that one.
Right, I think up on by cave on, I think, cave on I.
I really think he can dosomething here.
I'm really rolling on your cave.
(09:24):
Y'all just give me something.
Let's go, let's let's do thisone and give us one of those, uh
, one of those upsets.
I think a lot of these guys cando it, but I think, if anything
, kv on is going to be the one.
But Dylan's going to kill it.
I think he's going to do morethan just a decision.
I think he's.
I think he's going to either.
So my confidence is in him.
He just killed it at SouthernScuffle, so let's just keep that
(09:46):
momentum going.
Then we got 149.
I believe it's going to be JackGeoffrey Should be, we'll see.
Injury.
No, I don't know what's goingon with everybody.
They don't.
They haven't told I haven'tasked, they're not telling me.
I'm just, hopefully everybody'sokay, exactly if who's got what
(10:12):
, but again, tentative.
So with jack geoffrey, he'snumber 34 and what I'm seeing,
number 36 is, according towrestle stat.
Um, I you know.
Honestly, I think this is a good, good match for jack to be able
to pull off.
Um, hey, you know I justnoticed this the other day too
that jack geoffrey, michaelgeoffrey, there's a.
Is there a?
Correct me if I'm wrong, goahead and message me.
I know a lot.
I saw a couple of the momsfollow me.
Is there a victor geoffrey?
(10:32):
And there's geoffreyseverywhere.
Once I saw these guys like it's.
I see geoffreys popping up onall kinds of brackets everywhere
, so it's great to see becausethese guys are fun to watch.
So I'm really pulling for jackon this one.
I really believe he's going tobe able to get, like, I believe,
a major, if not a decision, butI think you can get a major out
of this one.
Wrestlestad doesn't think so.
I think jack can definitelypull it off because I think he's
(10:55):
coming in on fire along withhis brother, michael um.
This guy he's pretty good and Ikind of talked to a coach about
a little about him and he'slike man.
When he is on, he is on and I Icouldn't agree more watching
some of his matches.
Man, his intensity, especiallyfor 157.
This is a place I know.
(11:16):
Liam wrestles around 165.
He's, you know, practicing theguys 157, so he is on his toes,
he's fast, he's fast and he'sstrong.
So it's really fun to see himwhen he's on top of his game and
he's in that, you know, stateof flow and it's just going.
A lot of what I watched recentlywas the Southern scuffle stuff.
I know a lot of the guys.
A couple of guys were at theFNM.
(11:36):
They did great too.
So I'm really hoping a lot ofthese guys are willing to carry
that momentum along and are ableto get that done.
So Michael Giaffri is probablygoing to be winding up against
Ed Scott.
We'll see who knows what guysyou know how coaches are they
want to throw a mix in it.
They want this guy to do thishere, but right now they got Ed
(11:59):
Scott, I believe would be at 157against, I think, michael.
This is one the rankings showdifferently.
I think Michael could pullsomething off if he can, if he
can keep the gas tank and handfight really well, especially
against that Scott.
I think he's able to pullsomething off.
It's tough match so we'll seeagain.
It's one of those seasons whereI think ever since I've noticed
(12:22):
the talk that ever since, likeSpencer Lee got beat like 125,
started going crazy and itseemed like every other weight
class after that just startedgoing nuts and I know we've had
some fun ones to watch here andthere, but it's been crazy.
I think it's been crazy in thepast year, year and a half,
where guys you wouldn't expectto get big wins are getting big
wins and pulling clutch thepoint like the end of the you
(12:42):
know, the end of the thirdperiod.
They're done by one, they gofor it, right, that kind of
thing.
So this is exciting.
I think michael's gonna be oneof those exciting guys.
165 this is my guy, nickhamilton, uh, acc champ, right.
So again the rankings show thempretty close, but I don't think
this match is going to be veryclose.
I think next, and if nick'shealthy, um, you know, I think
(13:05):
we knew that he was a littleinjured back a couple events ago
, but I think he looks like hecould still be ready to roll.
That's me.
I don't know what coaches arethinking, I don't know what they
got going on, but I think he'sready to roll.
I still think he takes this onehandily.
They're saying Derek Fields, Idon't buy it.
(13:25):
I think Hamilton pulls this offby decision, I'd say by three,
by a takedown, guessing, justbased off of some of the stuff
that you know, the commonopponents and stuff like that
that they've wrestled Again.
I've been reading through someof the stuff.
I've been doing a littleresearch.
I've been trying to do as muchas I can because new guy, right,
I'm the new guy in town.
(13:47):
I'm trying to make sure thatgot some information correct.
I'm going to get some stuffwrong.
And again, guys, if there'sanything you want to correct me
on, feel free, please do.
Um, you can reach out to visitvision quest original vision
quest podcast original atgmailcom.
Message me on Instagram, youcan message me on Twitter,
message me anywhere that's onsocial media.
Let me know.
If there's some corrections Ineed to make, I'm definitely
(14:08):
willing to get them because I Iwant to represent these guys
well.
So, um, when it comes to nickhamilton and the injuries, I I
still even even he, the guy's agrinder.
I mean, just watching him atthe practices that he's had, um,
when were down there, I meanhe's a grinder, he is a guy
that's willing to go.
I mean I think he's hopefullyLiam's going to be able to, you
(14:33):
know, follow up behind him whenhe goes there, because that's
the guy that I want, you know,liam, to be able to follow
behind.
But again, hopefully he'shealthy, fingers crossed.
Scott Derrick Fields, I thinkyou know healthy.
Nick Hamilton comes in.
Even if he's a little sore orsomething like that.
I think he still takes it.
I'll give him the 7-6.
We'll do that.
(14:54):
Let's see who we got.
So tentatively, rocco Cantino174, could have Matthew
Singleton.
Again, they're common opponentsand just like the score
differences, a lot of times Ican't, I can't put a lot to that
, I can't act like that's, likethe the be all, end all, because
(15:16):
these change right, and that'swhy I didn't really want to look
too far back on differentevents.
Now, again, the progress isprogress, but a lot of times you
can see that progress just in,you know, like in the southern
scuffle or in the F and M andwherever you know.
I think there are a coupleother spots that some of the
guys you don't typically see out, but with these guys it's been,
it's been really fun to watch.
(15:37):
So that's why I'm reallypulling a lot for these, you
know, as far as when it comes tothe ranking sides and things
like that, I'm really pullingfor, uh, virginia, because these
guys, again fun to watch.
So, uh, rocco cantino, it isn'tpicked to win.
I mean, we're talking, they'reshowing number 74, number 19, eh
, you know, again, numbers,right, get, you gotta have faith
(16:01):
.
You gotta have faith in theseguys, and I do wholeheartedly.
Um, I think the, uh, I thinkthe the options of rocco cantino
taking this pretty good, prettygood.
So I, good luck to him.
Um, again, these guys.
I hope we're gonna kill it andthey're gonna throw us all for a
loop and just show us exactlywhere it's at.
So, uh, 184.
(16:22):
It looks like we're gonna havehave Griffin Gamble, possibly
which great.
I just watched one of hismatches, again from, I believe
the Scuffle Looked great.
I'm down If he's healthy too.
Again, I don't know all theinjuries.
I just don't buy a lot of timesthe numbers, the upsets that
(16:42):
have been happening.
I get all the confidence, butit's going to be a tough match.
I mean it's still.
I mean still dealing fish backright, it's uh, it's not gonna
be an easy match, but I'm alwayspulling for these guys and I
think when it boils down to it,if you, 184 is tricky for me,
like when these guys get bigger,I'm not used to, um, slower
matches, so it's always.
(17:03):
It's always about the hand fightright bigger guys.
It's a lot like a greco and Idon't want to act like I'm an
expert here.
Exactly in college wrestling,because I'm not a coach, didn't
wrestle things like that.
This is all just based off ofthe experience that I have with
just wrestling in general andthe things that I've seen Liam
go through and whatnot.
(17:23):
But he's smaller, start gettingbigger, and watching these guys
it's a lot.
Unfortunately I call it uhdancing.
Um, it's just a lot of upward,you know, upper body, just hand
fighting and trying to get goodposition.
They're big guys.
Right, the game's changed alittle bit, you know.
I mean guys are faster now andthings.
Things happen a little morequickly when they're shooting,
you know, and I totally get that, um, but it's sometimes it's
(17:47):
all about mind over matter withthese guys.
It's just it's just a handfight, hand fight a man.
When they turn it on, they turnon.
And Griffin is one of thoseguys that turns it on.
So in watching a couple of hismatches, like I've never you
know there's a lot of guys thatshoot quick, but like his single
leg is pretty quick, I I'llgive him that one, for 184 has
(18:09):
pretty quick single leg.
So I I'm excited to see himpull something off.
It's gonna be a tough match.
All the faith in him, though.
Um hopefully gets it done.
We got uh number oh wait, 197.
Uh number 98.
Again number 36 christian knoppfrom nc state, and then we'll
have.
We'll see what do.
We got Possibly Shula, it lookslike.
(18:30):
We'll see what that looks likein the on the lineup here.
So, oh yeah, there we go,little, little closer matchup,
but still at the same point.
That's a, that's a good.
It's a good call on the on theprobable.
I think that'd it's a crazyseason.
(18:53):
It's a crazy season.
I enjoy watching these guys.
So it's it's going to be funnow that, um, uh, this ACC runs
coming up and just watching someof the, the upset matches that
have happened this year.
I'm really excited to see this.
So actually I think can do it.
That's a a tentative list thatI have.
So, again, I, I, I, I put allthe 197 guys just to kind of see
(19:14):
what happens.
But it's probably going to beMax Shula, but good luck to him.
And then we got heavyweight.
Gabe Christensen Watched one ofhis matches tonight too.
Looks solid.
He's got a tough Isaac Trumbullthough.
So this one I'm definitelygoing to want.
I really want to watch, becauseGabe Christensen really put it
(19:36):
down to was a Dalton Meyer, Ibelieve, a Bellarmine, just
control.
And that guy is massive, right.
And watching him take controlof that match in the beginning,
I mean it was unlucky.
But watching him take controlof that match, I mean he was in
a single leg and he had him likein the first I don't know first
period, I believe it was.
But I'm really impressed byGabe Christensen.
(19:58):
Again, I'm a new guy Just tryingto pick things out and just
kind of see, based off ofmatchups and a couple numbers,
and just based off of like whatI see in the matches themselves,
I'm excited.
So, with that being said, Idon't know that we pull off a
win.
I got to hope you guys do.
I'm definitely going to bethere rooting for you.
(20:18):
But we got a tough NC statewatching that.
That duel against uh, uh,against uh, osu against Oklahoma
state, that was, uh, someimpressive matches, some some
matches that we didn't thinkwere going to go certain ways.
But it also shows that there'san opportunity, right.
So we're really excited,especially in this house.
We're going to be watchingevery minute of that duel
(20:44):
because we're super excited forthese guys to throw down.
It's a great time to be able towatch these guys and I can't
stress enough to get to the gym.
Uh, get to the gym.
So the event I believe it's ais it a bucket hat giveaway?
It says so.
It's at the aquatic fitnesscenter.
I believe mem is getting fixed.
Can't wait for that to be done,excited about that, but it
(21:06):
looks like it's a bucket hatgiveaway and it's going to be an
aquatic fitness fitness center.
And being at that university,walking into there, I was highly
impressed, very, very I I wouldsay sorry to describe it was.
It was just, it was.
(21:27):
I was in awe.
It was just kind of being atthat, the university and how it
was, uh, put together as far asthe age and just the history
behind it, um, but the aquaticsfitness center was just it kind
of blew me away, just thetechnology that they have
integrated into everything andjust the great campus that they
had.
So I'm really excited to kindof go down this journey now with
(21:50):
Liam, and my wife and I aresuper excited for him.
We're really excited for theseguys because, again, just
watching the progress that theseguys have had throughout the
year and knowing just kind ofthe trenches that they've come
up through, you know to be ableto get to where they're at now,
it's hey, it's time to go, it'sACC time, right, but I'm going
(22:11):
to end it here, guys, hopefully.
I hope you guys enjoyed it.
Sometimes I ramble on about acouple things, but it'll get
better, um, I promise, but thesewill always be recorded.
Uh, just, I'm going to do itevery week before the duel, um.
So you know, tonight is just alittle weird one, I think it's
like what time is it?
10, 30 at night?
Um, just kind of got off mybutt and did it and felt like
(22:34):
doing it late at night.
So it just.
Uh, I hope you guys enjoyed it.
We're excited to see the restof the season.
We got NC state, after thatStanford and then we got
Virginia tech.
So we got a good round of ACCcoming up.
So, guys, pay attention, staytuned.
And I again, I hope you guysenjoyed it.
We're going to end it there.
We're just going to kind ofclose out with some music and
(22:55):
talk to you guys later.
Thank you.
