This is probably one of my favorite interviews of Gilman.

[@wendygilman2492]

What a great interview! Love you Thomas-Aunt Wendy

[@GrecoReview]

Love Gilman. I'm so pumped for this match!

[@justinhelin2752]

I love everything about this interview. Happy for Gilman’s story of wrestling and faith! God has been good to him!

[@skymanchronicles8936]

He has had a great tournament, fun to watch! Two best guys in the finals, what the fans wanted good luck!

[@someguynamedsteve3753]

Will say Gilman is not talking like his past self. Him saying regardless of the outcome he’s gonna do his best and “showing weakness” is not like him. This new Gilman is cool! Hope he moves up to 61kg, him and Vito could rule that weight class.

[@daricklapaglia4337]

Thomas is one of my favorite wrestlers! One of the toughest guys ive ever met. Lucky to say i got wrestle with him growing up.

[@busticator8626]

Great interview!

[@mattgreg1]

excited it’s gonna be a great match

[@willungs541]

You better pray Gilman! Spencer is comin to get ya

[@avidadolares]

What if Spencer also prayed....who does God help win then? Whoever prays the hardest? God gonna have to make some decisions soon.

[@justinflott5133]

@@avidadolares- God doesn’t help anyone win. As he said it’s not about winning or losing. Praying to God is about him helping us to be the best version of ourselves possible. If you can do that you’ll realize that the win or loss is not what defines you.

Wow, my dude has grown so much. Hurt to watch that second match with Lee, but he's accomplished more then most could dream!

[@joelmujica3367]

I know bro I remember watching him as a Hawkeye went to every home meet just amazing what type of dude he’s become he’s a beast still no matter what

[@Meishach2112]

We love Thomas Gillman! Go Hawks!

[@craigose4566]

Seems that he is in a good frame of mind.

[@yo2stix]

So many guys in the top tier in wrestling that are devoted to following Jesus. All glory to God. Thomas, you can tell so much that you’ve changed by switching wrestling clubs. It’s awesome to see. God has worked immensely in your life and it’s evident blessings on your journey with Him.

[@RapYouCanUnderstand]

This man is stoic

[@neilsaunders5725]

No longer the villain. Gilman has matured. Love it that he expresses his faith

[@heathsmall320]

See what I got, this guy is a beast.

[@combatspeed6392]

Amazing how much more likeable a person he became AFTER leaving Iowa.

[@psu7276]

I recall him saying in one interview that moving to the NLWC helped save his life.

[@combatspeed6392]

@@psu7276 I imagine his previous environment was not a very healthy place.

[@USARMYRETIRED2011]

You ever think that might come with age regardless?

[@combatspeed6392]

@USARMYRETIRED2011 maybe... or more likely leaving the toxic environment. Metcalf shares my opinion. The Brands who are much older than all of these guys hasn't matured nearly as much.

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

It should be a great match the best two wrestlers at the weight out there

[@jamesjames1633]

Gilman is my guy

[@kenny2xtimes61]

🇺🇸 🇺🇸 may the best man win, good luck guys

[@luagoluago]

Hope he gets the spot and we qualify the weight so he can bring us home a medal

[@michaelbradley7621]

Gilman seems so much more mature and healthier and happier.

[@dannyford3732]

A lot of the Penn wrestling room seems to be very religious

[@ryanyoung8029]

Seems like it helps them

[@JennyBoxOfChocolates]

Lots of high character guys, might be a connection

[@saljablo2767]

Love Gilman but Spencer is my guy.

[@jamesjames1633]

Penn state was good for Gilman

[@justinflott5133]

Would have loved to see Gilman vs Vito

[@anthonydelgrosso4818]

Omg he's huge

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

I have it seen countless times the best athletes always seem to go thru adversity before there greatest success

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

I hope some other state will get a club that can compete against penn club hope Michigan can do it they have a great club

[@michaelmiller4777]

Spencer LEE !!!!!

[@AlwaysAlpha88]

I am happy for Gilman he seems like he's in a good mental place and I wish his family the best. But I've said before on this channel for all you Spencer Lee haters that wrote him after he lost one match that he was fine. People seem to forget what an unbelievable talent he is and he is gonna be just fine. Good luck to both of them tho!

[@trailbay]

It’s a tough sport to journey through.

[@bmjasso]

Hope he tries to make 61 kg for the non-Olympic weight Worlds.

[@koskos9630]

culty vibes from penn staters

[@johncraig9365]

Is attitude has really changed, but spencer sweeps him

[@noBearAdventures]

I love Gilman, and I’ve got nothing against faith… or religion… and especially someone who can find meaning and hope in that… but this interview solidified 1000% what I had always wondered about Penn State. That there is some weird religious cult-like things going on in that room

[@ryanyoung8029]

That they have faith in God? Lol seems like you do have issues with religion

[@noBearAdventures]

@@ryanyoung8029 I guess I would ask you… do you think there’s cult-like behavior with all of the trials going on in Utah with multiple parents killing their children in the name of God for the Church of Latter Day Saints? My point is that there is religion… and then there’s fanaticism. I’m sorry you don’t see it, but Penn State wrestling culture goes VERY hard with the religious rhetoric. WAY more than the average “community” Nothing against god my guy. Just find fanaticism weird

[@noBearAdventures]

@@ryanyoung8029 I also don’t see the need to preach about your own beliefs, and throw it into every sentence of every interview. If you are very faithful and staunch in your beliefs, why is it necessary to let the entire world know with every sentence? Either you’re trying to convince yourself how pious you are… or you’re trying to convert people. Either way, I don’t find that necessary. But that’s just my opinion

[@ryanyoung8029]

@@noBearAdventures You just find telling people about how faith and God affects your life weird. You're okay with people being religious as long as the hide it from you? lol

[@noBearAdventures]

@@ryanyoung8029 yes. 100%. Faith should be a personal thing right? Doesn’t feel very personal when you’re shoving it down everybody’s throat. I love my wife. If I went around telling everybody every two minutes how much I loved her… Maybe people might question if I actually do. Or why I need to tell everybody every two seconds. Most people would think that’s pretty weird. And if you can’t see that… You’re in complete denial

[@wsalas13]

Has to be the biggest/strongest 57 kg in the world

[@justinflott5133]

What’s it mean to get back to Penn State? 🤦🏻 reporters need to do their homework and actually know the sport and the athletes. You’re talking to wrestling royalty. Have enough respect to know where they’re from and where they wrestled in college.

[@stassenchr]

Worst sound quality ever

[@avidadolares]

Better ask for your money back.. oh, wait. And the sound was fine...its an interview in the tunnel...what do you expect, genius. I bet you would have complained no matter what anyway.... your type always does. Bet youre a red hat wearer and still crying about that too. Thought so.

[@anthonydelgrosso4818]

PSU guys are so annoying with all this god talk

Take a lesson from them. Guarantee they are in a better spot than you are.

[@avidadolares]

@@michaelbradley7621 And you know this how? Are you judging others, Mr God fearing self righteous Christian? Isnt that a sin and not up to you to decide....oh, wait...maybe youre a Trumpster Christian where it only applies to others.

[@JennyBoxOfChocolates]

Yea I hate such high character individuals! Ugh, we need more degenerates.

[@saljablo2767]

This. I don’t even mind the god talk but PSU takes it to a fake level where they basically downplay to a point of not mattering at all any achievements on the mat. Then go live in a monastery dude.

[@bconigliaro]

Jacob could have won that wrestling match in the Bible if God hadn't had a foreign object in his singlet.
