Not a loud storyline from this weekend, but an awesome & rare one: @PackWrestle's Isaac Trumble, who was undefeated on the year, and shut out #1 Yonger Bastida in the Finals to win his NCAA title, will be commissioned in the Army in May. Having been a member of NC State's ROTC program, he will look to begin his career in the U.S. Army Infantry as a field artillery officer. Gotta love & appreciate that! Thank you for your service, @isaactrumble_! 🫡🇺🇸

@TheDailyIowan Glad to see him return to a competitive form. I think just watching the difference in this weekend compared to all season it’s easy to imagine Drake has been injured , etc. great Big 10 tourney for him. Btw look at his forehead from great head position.

𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚: The Ravens could potentially be in play for free agent WR Tyreek Hill, a move that could also increase their chances of getting an extension done with MVP QB Lamar Jackson, says @ProFootballTalk “Maybe adding Tyreek Hill is the thing that gets Lamar Jackson to sign the contract the Ravens would have on the table in lieu of pushing for something more. So they're gonna be in play, potentially.”

@WadePlem Oddly enough, you’re picking at Jon Jones who’s currently training the greatest NCAA Heavyweight wrestler ever Gable Steveson in MMA. He’s probably the most gifted athlete I’ve ever seen. I would argue that most “world class” athletes don’t want to get punched in the face also

I want to hear it from the people themselves - the FANS. If and when the Brands are released from Iowa’s coaching staff - who should be their realistic replacement? Lee Goat? Jordan Burroughs? Ben Askren? Kyle Dake? Someone else? Let me know in the comments ⬇️🤯

"It would be a wipeout" Daniel Cormier on a wrestling match with Jon Jones 🤼‍♂️🔥 "Grappling? I don’t know so much. Wrestling? Yeah, I’ll wrestle Jon Jones. They can give me and Jon Jones a wrestling match. Whoever wants to pay for that, tell us. We’ll wrestle me and Jon Jones. Freestyle wrestling, me and Jon Jones, 2–3 minutes period. It won’t take long though. It would be a wipeout."

Not only did he win senior nationals six times in wrestling, place fourth in the Olympics, win UFC titles in two weight classes, competed at the championship level past the age of 40 in a sport he didn't start until he was 30 (and never trained in striking prior) and was All-State in football as a linebacker with D-1 offers even in spite of his height and his 40 time in high school was the same as Bron Breakker's at the NFL combine. You will find few athletic resumes in multiple sports equal to his.

DC was an Olympian, one of the best athletes to compete in MMA. More to being athletic than backflips.

My son Beacon completed the “Tournament Warrior” feat this weekend at Super 32! He lost his first match to the top seed, then battled back to win five straight and finish with a bronze medal beating the 2, 3, 4 and 5 seeds on the way. Most importantly, he displayed great poise, determination and humility. He’s a fighter. He kept finding a way to stay alive, and it was fun to watch. We’re not on the national tournament circuit. We haven’t done Tulsa, Reno, Kids Nationals. Winning big tournaments right now isn’t high on our priority list. So when Beacon insisted on coming to Greensboro, North Carolina to compete with his teammates against the best kids in the country at Super 32, I was hesitant. Part of me would rather him just stay at home to train. But more than that, I also didn’t believe he was ready for the caliber of kids I knew he’d run into. I thought about shielding him from potentially getting his butt kicked. After those initial thoughts, I reframed my perspective and decided to register him. Here are a few important ideas I’ve settled on: 1. Seek challenges — Adversity helps us develop, build character and get closer to the wrestler/man we eventually will become. The harder the challenge, the bigger the window for growth. 2. Wins and losses go into the same bucket. The ultimate goal is to become greater later. Until then we’re just having fun and collecting data — figuring out ways to get better. 3. Prepare them, don’t scare them. I didn’t show him the bracket. I didn’t tell him the names of anyone in his weight class, I didn’t even tell him who he’d have next round. Just bring your best stuff. Who your opponent is, is less important than the energy and intensity you bring to the match. Remember — it’s not about WHO you wrestle, but rather HOW you wrestle. 4. Ignore other parents. Most people have great intentions, but poor advice. Don’t let them project their insecurities on you. They usually have no idea what they’re talking about. Listen to your coaches instead. 5. Let your kid cry. It means they care. You don’t have to pacify them immediately after a loss. Let them sit with their emotions for a little while and learn to handle difficult moments internally. 6. Don’t yell at your kids when they lose. Self explanatory. 7. Let them eat. A full belly makes a happy wrestler. There’s way too much emphasis on going down in weight in hopes of performing better or placing higher. Bigger doesn’t always mean better. If the weight class doesn’t make sense, or you don’t feel like you can compete at the weight, stay home and wait for another opportunity. STOP cutting your kids. 8. Find a club home and stick with it. Most wrestlers have too many chefs in the kitchen. Some wrestlers are regularly attending 2-3 clubs a week with no real identity to their wrestling. More coaches aren’t the answer. Pick one club, trust the process and let it ride. 9. Dont leave the tournament when your wrestler loses. Surround your kids with positive teammates and parents willing to be mat-side and cheer on the squad even if they’ve been knocked out of the tournament. Strong communities stay to support one another no matter what! 10. Dont get too low on your kid’s losses or too high on their success. Celebrate the wins but also remember that it’s just wrestling. All of the college coaches in the arena were watching the high school matches. Not one of them was recruiting the 8u or 11u tournament. It’s not that big of a deal yet. I realized this weekend that it’s not my job to clear the path for my kids, but only to prepare them for it. Beacon is no better a wrestler today than he was when he walked into the arena yesterday, but now he knows he belongs. And that itself was well worth the risk. - JB

@dom_lucre Immediate thought, what excuse do we tell ourselves when we miss the opportunity to get active? Working out should be a privilege, have a moving, functioning body is a privilege. Use it or lose it!!!

Mike Leach said, "Nothing is really fun unless it's hard. We've got to embrace that things are going to be hard and we've got to embrace being excited when things are hard." The best don’t fear obstacles, they embrace them. You can't become great if you only chase what's easy.

@SSN_Alabama @stephenasmith should talk basketball and basketball only. Deion is a great coach, but let’s not take away from the resume that DeBoer has. The man has been successful at every level of college football. It was the correct hire unless you were able to get Kiffin or Kirby back.
