Flagged for possible USADA violation.  Have to wait for B sample.  No indication yet what the drug may be.  Stay tuned....

Nah, it was his inhaler. Lol

Let's not jump to conclusions just yet though. There is more to the story.

Any reasonable person would tell you he was using steroids at the University of Minnesota.

Any response yet?

Are we going to hear "tainted supplements" like we have from Jon Jones and Yoel Romero?

After all, the guy passed five other USADA administered tests before he fought Hunt.

It's all speculation right now.  I am curious what he tested positive for.

I don't care about steroids like some do here, as a matter of fact I wish I did a couple decent cycles when I was young so I could get an idea of what I could look like juiced to the gills (a juvenile Lou Ferringo looks alot like a juvenile OC).. I didn't though and I kind of regret it. I do worry about guys bagging and fighting opponents at weight. That's finally being addressed. But I do wonder what Brock tested positive for, assume Brock was a steroid user, why test positive now? I would assume his camp had the whole "how to beat the test" thing down by now. Could he have tested positive for plastics? Could the positive be a result of his surgery? What's he on to ameliorate the effects of surgery/loss of some of his gut?  Oh, Hendricks is not a 170 pounder.Still too much muscle.

I asked Wes Hand if he thought Brock was juiced when they wrestled.  He says know and this is a guy who was matching up with him on the mat*

Wes works as a rep for Stryker instruments and so my wife sees him in surgery a lot.  Also his CPA shares office space with me.  Super nice guy, not one of the "INSANE" former Hawkeye wrestlers who only see black & gold.

Wes said the politically correct thing.  What else did you expect him to say.  I don't know whether or not Brock juiced in college.  There was always speculation.  Now, he is tainted for sure.

Wes is not a politically correct guy at least not after a couple of beers.  This was out at a social gathering and he had no reason to hold back.

Why would Wes know? Just because he wrestled a few matches against him? I don't see how that gives him any more insight than you or I.

Actually, I've wrestled some very strong guys since I was a heavyweight and competed until I was about 30. One of them could have probably could have taken Brock in a powerlifting competition but wrestling him didn't make me more confident about whether he was on steroids.

First of all, I think most people can tell he's a VERY strong guy without wrestling him. Does anybody think he isn't? Since he wrestled him, Wes has a better idea of how well Brock uses his strength (his athleticism, stamina, and wrestling smarts) but I'm completely lost on how that gives him special insight into whether Brock took steroids.

I'd assume I'd be able to tell if a guy was stronger than I am significantly by wrestling him.  All things be equal size (not exact at hwt, but still) you're matching up with an equal.  if you're both from outstanding programs with weight programs etc I'd think you'd be able to tell a significant advantage.  I mean I noticed it wrestling the BV kids in college.  I mean I wasn't a monster, but I was plenty strong for my size.  those guys were monsters.
