Yea I was going to post about this (flew back from Paris yesterday - paid
way too much on data roaming charges on my cell phone to get updated
scores).
Jordan became the 1st 2 time NC as well as the 2nd undefeated season (his NC
year in 09 was also undefeated). JB was pulled out of a redshirt year as a
FR, took 3rd as a SO, won it as a JR, 1st SR year, tore his knee and got a
medical redshirt. JB finishes 4th on the win list for NU at 128-20-0. All
his 20 losses were to All Americans. Also, JB's 1st NC was at a weight where
there were 4 returning national champions (from previous years and different
weights).
Jordan is the favorite for the Hodge Trophy (best college wrestler), it will
be between him and Robles from ASU. Robles wrestles 125, is missing a leg,
which is actually an advantage because he is bigger and stronger (he would
be at 141 or 149 pounds with 2 legs).
JB will also have an excellent chance at an Olympic berth. He added weight
(from 149 to 157 to 165) in college to match with the fewer weight classes
(163) in Freestyle.

Can not believe nothing has been said about Jordan Burroughs winning his
second NCAA wrestling championship last night. First 2 time NCAA wrestling
champion in Nebraska history. Unbeaten all season as well as the 2009
season.
CONGRATULATIONS JORDAN
Larry
