  1. A you saying having an athlete show up at your kid's birthday party is "marketing?"
  2. So let me get this straight: you are saying all Dayton Fix has to do to win NCAAs and make the Olympic team next year is drop down to 57kg, move the pre-match somersault jump to post match and do the hokoie pokie on his way off the mat for his off the chart post match interview?
  3. Is it true minnow reported that the Ferrari bros are going to start a new collective congregation called Flex Church?
  4. Been thru it 3x, completed the athletic activity i was involve in each time, swollen next day could barely walk (had no choice 3rd time) by ~2 weeks was pretty much back to doing normal things. I always waited till Nov (it was ~6 mo each time) to have replacement surgery so could keep doing outdoor athletic activities till winter. You don't "heal" after surgery, you recover and rehab. Pretty sure Spencer didn't have ACL replacement after first two, I heard he wrestled without didn't have replacement till before his last year. Thus his did not "heal." Each can be different but strength wise replacement and knee can be 100% by 6 mo out its just you may not feel like you can do 100% of what you want till a year out. But then some don't go that well.
  5. You don't need an acl, many do without, prob will have arthritis sooner. But an acl does not heal, once is torn etc its done but some can strengthen other muscles to compensate.
  6. Well there the reason the #1 is ranked #1, that'd be a data point. But maybe we are looking at it wrong and Harvard or Stanford is the top wrestling program and we are just using the wrong data point.
  7. Starting salary isn't everything, its what you do with you previous degree, previous job etc. once you get the foot in the door.
  8. Wall Street Journal disagrees but ...
  9. Yes which? Do you actually think a Cornell Civil Eng degree is worth more than from the #1 program in the nation? Of course how many wrestlers have the time to go thru a rigorous engineering program?
  10. Depends on the major. Do you think a degree in Leisure Studies from Cornell is worth more than from Iowa? What about Civil Engineering from Cornell or Yale versus Univ. of Illinois?
  11. I am certain I remember streaming issues before 2017.
  12. Some folks get a song stuck in their head ... but not our Wkn day:
  13. Whether the one mentioned above is a "one year" or "five year" deal probably depends on the details actually offered. I don't know if it was a we are guaranteeing five year regardless or if offered $100k/yr and will be renewed each of next 4 years if needed conditional upon x, y, & z. Regardless still a big number.
  14. I expect most are not getting anything of significance but $100k/yr for 5 years will get a hs kid's attention.
  15. plus I don't think the Hodge is even in the freestyle deck, check the cards.
  16. Not related to Koll just asking if it makes sense/seems reasonable to be throwing 6 figures at high school kids that as far as we know haven't yet established an "image?"
  17. what about buying them right out of high school?
