  1. They are at 6 men's teams and 8 women's teams right now, going to 6 and 9 might be a Title IX bridge too far, even for a modern day AD. Though I suppose they could invoke the football excuse.
  2. They dropped Men's soccer in 2017 after a very successful season, and had a player drafted in the MLS that year. I don't see them wanting to re-start one so soon.
  3. They cut men's swimming and diving in 2017, and still maintain a pool for their women's team. This sounds like a case of "math doesn't always work like it should." Probably want to have the fewest teams allowable while "balancing" Title IX.
  4. Yes, beach culture is the key to NCAA wrestling success, just ask PSU, Iowa, OSU, etc.
  5. The comments from the athletic director's office lead me to believe the wrestlers' stories.
  6. Big Bruce won in 1995 three months shy of turning 35.
  7. You said he never stepped on a college "match" after winning Olympic Gold. I was waiting to see how you were going to incorporate a matchstick into the wordplay.
  8. Maybe he's going for the Big Lie? Just keep saying it and eventually everyone will believe you.
  9. Can we assume that basically the entire roster shifts up a weight class or two for next season?
  10. There was an RTC practice, I assume there are several "old friends" associated with that. I'm not saying that is what he is referring to, just making an observation.
  11. I saw McIntosh at the 2000 (maybe it was 1999?) WIAA State Championships. He was a football player at UW at the time and he came to watch the finals. Ben was a Freshman finalist that year, if I remember correctly.
  12. I agree with what you are saying. We don't know why Askren was on campus. And Bono is still the coach. But the AD most certainly knows Askren.
  13. hard to be GOAT when you were never the greatest in your weight class in any season.
  14. He's going to teach Seth Gross the Assassin so he's ready for OTT.
  15. In 2023-2024, Clark was 1st in the WNCAA in FG attempts and 3pt attempts. She was 133rd in FG% made and 55th in 3pt% made.
  16. She shot 37.7% from 3-pt line in her career, and shot 46.2% overall for her career. So, more did not go in than went in.
  17. WBB is fun for people to watch because the media manufactures storylines and human interest stories. Kinda like why people like watching the Olympics. The actual athletic, basketball product is bad.
  18. Didn't Keck win a Natty wrestling in a warehouse this season?
  19. That must have been quite a weight pull for a man of that age.
