Because swimming is the highest form of sport.

The obvious, and unquestioned, greatest athlete is Zambian, Nanu. After being seen outrunning a cheetah in his home country, he came to the United States and singlehandedly won the NCAA track and Field Tournament in 1973. Though it was touch and go due to his rough start (he fell/slid backward on his first long jump attempt and his first javelin attempt went backward), following a key coaching adjustment he won the 440, high jump, javelin, shot put, pole vault, discuss, long jump, and another track event in just 2 minutes and 9 seconds.

On these here message boards everything is true.

Me too. The highest I found was Jeff Jaggers at 137,735. That is just school salary. Not sure about RTC money. Kevin Jackson at 131,040. Churella was at 128,856. Morningstar 121,344.

Nope

I started a gofundme to pay for my contribution to RBY's gofundme

I have found Jack Carnefix, Operations Manager at the National Wrestling Hall of Fame to be very helpful. jcarnefix@nwhof.org

Tom Petty said the waiting is the hardest part.

Turns out "Someone's brother-in-law" was the wrong answer, but there are 11 visionaries on this board. Or maybe 14? Not sure if those last 3 votes had inside info.

You and I could not feel any different about this.

In the plus column for Dake going to OSU is that he and Taylor are close friends.

Or a brother from another mother? Or a brother-in-law from another mother?

Because when Minnow posted it it was a rumor. That is the coin of his realm. That it later was almost accurate does not change the characterization. Some rumors are false, some are true, and some are somewhere in between. But those determinations are always after more information, from real sources, comes out. He gleefully deals in rumors. It is what he does because he is addicted to being first. In order to do that he is very comfortable that truth is usually the first casualty.

You are not Socrates.

He is listed at 6'1", but having stood next to him I would put him just under 6'. Now Aaron Donald was also listed at 6'1", and he did OK.

With respect to the bold, I will quote my favorite person, myself: When you ask if he has left anything out or made anything up, you presume to know the facts. You do not. I just do not feel the need for a hot take.

You are being hypocritical when you say it is not about PSU, but about PSU fans. There is a major difference between the Fix situation and this situation. In the Fix situation we had a statement of facts released by the investigating authority. Here we have a Minnow rumor followed by a fan-boy interview with softball questions. You want to characterize everything as a lie, 100%, you said. But you do not know that to be the case. When Brooks says mistake, you recharacterize it as a lie. There is a major difference between mistakes and lies, but all to often people willingly choose to ignore that difference and go with the more damning characterization in order to promote their narrative. What I am claiming is that I do not know what happened. Furthermore I am claiming that you do not either. I am also claiming that you are unable to admit to yourself that you do not know what happened because of whatever the opposite of PSU colored glasses is. As further evidence that you like to go with the worst possible interpretation of all things PSU, I note that you put "DT leaked this news" in quotation marks as though this is something Brooks said. He did not say this. He implied someone he beat leaked this. You can certainly jump to the conclusion that it was Taylor, but then you expose your hypocrisy by putting your conclusion in quotes to imply that is what Brooks actually said.

You can claim you do not like the hypocrisy of PSU fans, but it is comments like this that expose the lie.

I need to know how you feel about John Stamos.

I think you are over estimating. Only 83% of wrestlers end their careers that way.

Am I that transparent to you? How did you know I like New Order?

Yeah, that matches what I found. But, the change to the grad transfer rule was pretty stealth, so it also would not surprise me if there is a second window.

Tilting at some wind mills here. Usually it is best to wait until a PSU fan actually makes the claim you want to pretend they have already made. No one has said ignorance is a defense. And as a PSU fan I was pretty staunch in my position that the wrestling suspensions were as dumb and hypocritical as it gets.
