NU Wrestling - Cliff Keen Invite

Huskers in 3rd place after Day 1, behind first place NC State by 3.5 points. May not be the toughest tournament all year, but a pleasant surprise after the way they have started the season. In 2nd place is South Dakota State, which the Huskers will duel on December 18 up in Brookings.

NU has 5 wrestlers into the semifinals, and 2 remaining in the consolations. Peyton Robb (157) and Mikey Labriola (174) leading the way, which is expected. Some nice surprise for the remaining 3 in the semis. Brock Hardy at 141, Lenny Pinto at 184, and Silas Allred at 197. Hardy has falls in his first 2 matches. Pinto and Allred are new to the lineup this year. To be honest, To be honest, I don't think Pinto has been in the lineup yet previously. Allred gets a rematch with Trumble of NC State, whom he lost to in an early season duel.

Ridge Lovett (149) is redshirting this year. Leaves a hole in the lineup, especially in the duels. He was NCAA runner-up last and exceeded expectations. Anyone know why he is redshirting?

Maybe it’s just the kool-aid talking but I’ll just say this about Ernest

Don’t let a missed opportunity slip by. You started as a freshman. The future is very bright for you young man. It’s been my experience that those opportunities in life grow even more after your playing career for “our own”. Be part of the turnaround. Could be special. Do I need to put down the kool aid?

Don’t know how Rhule could keep Raoila as O Line coach

Not after watching this years OL performance.

There would be some angry fans if he did that and lots of pushback.

I don’t understand how he could ever keep this guy.

If Rhule keeps him it would be a reaction of poor judgement by Rhule.

Why on earth would he ever start the season being in the hole with popular opinion with this decision is beyond me

Is Dale Murphy gonna finally get into the HoF!

Just saw a segment on MLBN and they were really going to bat for the Murph! If anyone deserves to get into the Hall for obviously being clean it’s him. His body broke down like a normal human being not on the juice or some other performance enhancing drugs! Get him in the HoF!
