Good questions. Olympic medals for US college athletes are very rare. I THINK Jordan Burroughs has one, while he was at Nebraska, but it's rare. It's a remarkable accomplishment. Four years from now? Who knows? We don't have well developed amateur wrestling in the U.S., and support is poor. But Jordan Burroughs did it, our heavyweight did it (forgetting his name), so it can be done -- if the shoulders and the knees hold up. It's a rough sport.

          just because you don't like a rule doesn't mean you - gmmm98 MU - 8/20 15:46:50
               Can't really understand what you are saying. - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 15:50:49
                    So, because YOU do not like the rule, it is controversial?(nm) - ROLLATIGER MU - 8/20 22:39:19
          It was a takedown. Hips on the mat, J'Den had both legs - TigerJackSwartz MU - 8/20 15:39:17
               He is talking about the semi-final match not the bronze one(nm) - AWOLTiger KC - 8/20 16:22:39
                    No he isn't. He doesn't think J'Den should've been - TigerJackSwartz MU - 8/20 16:31:32
                         Wow, then yeah he's way wrong (nm) - AWOLTiger KC - 8/20 17:21:28
               Yeah by scoring that push out it kind of screwed him. - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 15:48:13

               Good questions, Cox should be poised for a good run. - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 15:57:31
                    Thanks, good info. So what about precedent.... - bluetiger_ MU - 8/20 16:08:08
                         Kyle Snyder won the worlds last year - TigerJackSwartz MU - 8/20 16:09:08
          Cox wrestled great, but has no grasp of freestyle rules. - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 15:34:19
               What was bad about it? Cubans hips clearly hit the mat(nm) - AWOLTiger KC - 8/20 16:24:01
                    Just thought it looked like Cuba still had a grip on Cox - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 16:28:04
                         He didn't (nm) - SatoriTiger JC - 8/20 19:06:08
                         He hit him to the mat and then drove him again.. - AWOLTiger KC - 8/20 17:19:04
               you seem hyper-douchey(nm) - gmmm98 MU - 8/20 15:48:15

               Yeah - TigerJackSwartz MU - 8/20 15:39:43
                    Just trying to be a neutral observer. - MIZ-STL-ZOU MU - 8/20 15:53:00
                         He had him beat on points.(nm) - ROLLATIGER MU - 8/20 22:45:09
                         No, you're trying to p|ss on J'Den's bronze medal - TigerJackSwartz MU - 8/20 15:56:01
                              He is the wrestling Fiji.(nm) - ROLLATIGER MU - 8/20 22:46:01
