Rhule said in an interview they wanted him to play lighter this year. Getting in wrestling shape may have been partly dual purpose. I am sure they will want him to add some back, but not all of it. He will be quicker next season.

Hutmacher wrestling
- Thread starter HuskrNew

Hill wrestled the way his coach told him to. Tie him up in the first period, don't let him get a take down. Don't let him score in the second and He'll tire out by the third period and you will be able to score on him. Not sure what our coach told Hutmaker but he didn't look like he was sure what to do. I was disappointed in how certain other individuals wrestled last night too. Iowa always comes motivated but not always true with NU!
Yep. Non-wrestlers may not understand this. And D1 is a whole different animal from HS, especially for a guy who's used to pinning every opponent in less than 1:30.
I was looking at the rosters at the start of the match and thought it (team score) would come down to the HWT match. Then we lost at 197 and lost the dual. Don't know if that added any pressure for Nash, probably didn't help, but he had other issues to deal with.
It may take him a bit to get to the level of D1 wrestling, but it will help him immensely for football as well.
Yeah they definitely looked lethargic in a couple matches last night
And pins don’t come easily at the D-1 level.
Was my feeling to watching him. Football and wrestling are two totally different types of conditioning. Poor kid was gassed.
Unfortunate for his current wrestling situation, but just think what his future conditioning will do for him in football!
He already is a beast.
Silas looked like he would have rather been in alot of other places than on that mat. Not sure what's going on with Robb, maybe holdover effects from his issue?
Manning has done really well with the program and I don't want to come across as negative, but I think the one area of criticism is around your bolded comment. Sometimes the guys just don't look prepared / motivated. That is never so apparent than at the NCAAs (as a broad brush statement; not knocking every individual).
