Thor Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 So who do you thinks better Kral or Gelen? I know they had some good battles in the past and I'm wondering whether he can come in and wrestle varsity immediately or if Krals the best heavyweight right now.

KarlHungus Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 If Gelen is all in, Im guessing the learning curve would not be that steep and he would be the top dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 If Gelen is all in, Im guessing the learning curve would not be that steep and he would be the top dog. I agree I could see him being the top dog (or big dog) if he is wrestling. Does anyone have any insight on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
base Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Put a college-level coaching staff and partners together with a wrestler of Gelen's athletic ability -- I am excited to see what he can do! Quality wrestling partners make all the difference, and there wasn't really anybody other than maybe Sliga that could push Gelen in HS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purduetito Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I found this on the Purdue Message boards: One of the site editors posted it. OK, here's what I was told by football sports information director Matt Rector, who asked Darrell Hazell: "Gelen will be taking part in all offseason football related activities in addition to joining the wrestling team." Football winter weight-lifting starts Jan. 15. So I would assume that football responsibilities are No. 1 and if they don't overlap with wrestling, he can do wrestling stuff. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please tell me you're joking? That Glenn Robinson is a fat, bald, white dude! Gelen's dad does not resemble that description in any way, shape, or form. Intentional or not, that's hilarious.

sportsfangms Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Your 2 pennies are funny, and way off base. My favorite part is the guarantee of him working out with all those monsters, clearly you don't know what that word means or Gelen and his family. Thanks for the laugh.

tskin Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 MattM is juat racist. FCFighter170 doesn't see color, or height, or weight hell FCFighter170 might be blind now that I think about it. TripleB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think that the Glenn living down along the beach area of Florida would have some time to get out in the sun more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
