  1. ... or perhaps Mr Prague is the speech writer for the Vice President. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  2. Do you really think a Cael coached Truax is going to lose to Keckeison? Look at who Truax gets to train with now. I'll give you that the non PSU team has a chance in a dual but Cael's top guys always do better in the big dance, plus someone is going to knock off some nonPSU guys. Also what is the Ferrari doing in the lineup, he is facing 1 to 15, even 1 won't be over by March.
  3. Well ... there's only one Ferrari available so ...
  4. Worse than that, if you put the best 10 non PSU wrestlers on one tournament team could they even beat Penn State?
  5. As has been pointed out many times before, Tom was paying & cheating before Cael but when Cael got to PSU he had the resources to do it bigger and better (or worse, depends how you look at it) than Tom. Tom has been trying to catch up, NIL $s show maybe surpassed in some areas but its not enough to make a difference which frustrates the Hawkeye fans. I mean if you are going to cheat it ought to work correct?
  6. backward two handed free throws worth 2pt each
  7. Good grief man, wrestling hasn't worked, he need something different. Same with #2 apparently.
  8. Maybe that extra point will be the incentive he's been looking for. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  9. ahh ... what exactly have they "been through?" Thats been their modus operandi to all move to one location and by doing so they are 3x to 5x more likely to create a problem. Big AJ is the problem, who's gonna watch him?
  10. Good grief, you don't need cable to watch ESPN.
  11. Possibly, its been done before, don't have access to rokfin so ... maybe they said Pen State? Ever since that Stevenson kid was hyped in high school folks have been trying to slip an extra n innto their posts.
  12. We all know that Wkn knows nothing about wrestling but still think we should check with him on this. Are you really saying (or maybe you saying the stoneflip is say'n) Carl has lost his marbles and going to go after the Focus and Truax? Now I'm all for throwing a grenade into the Penn St program, think its the only way to slow them down, but they don't call Carl the professor because he's stupid. But as said, I will defer to Wkn's nowisdom on this.
  13. What!? Soccer is an international game, it is the "the beautiful game" you don't just change the rules for one country just for their viewers. Plus it doesn't need to be changed. Went to a USA v Ireland friendly recently, sold out. There was a USA v Mexico friendly just a few days ago 65k fans in attendance. Nothing wrong with current foul calls. I used to think soccer and wrestler were the related ultimate team and individual sports. Both continuous action with no time outs, coaching needed to be done prior to competition, wrestles need to react to opponent in real time (no stopping to think about it) same with soccer but its an entire team reacting in real time to their opponent and team mates. Sure there's a little bit of coaching, soccer can change formations or pressure points etc. while wrestlers can get coached to change first moves some strategy but the athletes still have to react in real time. Well wrestling changed, it is no longer the near equivalent individual sport. We know have time outs, if the coach sees his wrestler needs a break he can throw a brick. Just like soccer it used to be a conditioning sport, needing to go hard non stop for 7 minutes. I saw a match this last year where the wrestler who was gassing got close to a 10 min break from a handy coach brick.
  14. Deferred sentence (Apr 11) which pretty much means probation at this point. AJ trial date set for Sept.
  15. If these universities are buying fresh meat by the pound, looks like a bad deal, they got short changed.
  16. yeah but Bob only gives us 15 minutes here
