Ohio is a very good wrestling state and when he graduated I think the states were comparable, not so much anymore Pa. IMO is the best state evidenced by all the All Americans every year. A national prep Champ means that Penn State would likely recruit a guy like this nowadays. I wrestled in NY state which is not the caliber of Ohio or PA. on the whole, but I was very good as well but trying to he humble. Quote

Love, Pennsyltucky Pennsylvania is top 5 in wrestling, also What always confused me was NJ being a top tier state for wrestling as small as it was. We had a guy 4th in the state of Michigan move to our town. Couldn't beat the average JV guy at his weight class. As a freshman wrestler I beat Florida's 5th place rising senior in Iowa at a camp tournament. Anything north or west of Pittsburgh is ok by me. Quote

From mid 80's to late 90's Iowa, Ohio, PA, and California were the top wrestling states. Once in a while Nebraska would come up, or others. Without stats right in front of me I know that in my era we had 3 guys go on to win national championships in college. Just now, Simon said: I'd rather punch a brown bear than #!%* with a Pennsylvania wrestler Now, yes. They're quit good. The only PA wrestler I ever faced was @CountryCletus. I dropped him on a tree root in a toss. Gugny and fergy were there I'm pretty sure. Quote

Yeah I know wrestling as well and that's why I stated then Ohio may have been on even ground with them, but they aren't now nobody is. Yeah for sure everyone has an opinion but to say something 100 percent is just arrogant, especially when your talking about a National Champ, ironically enough I think he only took 2nd place in Pa. states.

If it was submission grappling, I would be confident against McDermott. Not going to underestimate him though because I know how good pure wrestlers are. I've been training for 7 years and we have a lot of former collegiate and high school wrestlers. Our HW wrestled at Lehigh University and he has only caught me a few times. I'm 170 lbs and he's 230 lbs. Edited August 28 by Royale with Cheese Quote
Buffalo716 Posted August 28 Posted August 28 (edited) Never wrestled so I'm sure he'd kill me in a wrestling match Like @Royale with Cheese said...

You need to go to OBD and issue the challenge. Bring a mat in, put the head gear on and let the team watch in a circle. Music in background is optional. 1 hour ago, Mikie2times said: I would pay money to listen to McD read some of these responses sort of like below 😂 I would pay to see this as well. If anyone has any FO pull, they need to make this happen. Even if it's just a private laugh with the players. 1 Quote
