  1. Or shot by your teammate... 2014-15 2A Vincent Turk Lombard (Montini)
  2. Call me when a funded project pays for the light bill, groceries, and rent. That's the difference between athletes and acadmics - now athletes get a scholarship AND paid.
  3. Jimmy Clicksabon gets the convos going. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
  4. Snyder wasn't Hodge worthy. Absolute world beater, literally, but didn't light up the scoreboard or get pins. Maybe if there was a weight class comparable to what he has won his eight world medals in then he would have racked up more points/techs instead of having to treat each match as a seven minute weightlifting session...
  5. Cox and Yianni are very similar. Great champions, just not Hodge material. Personally, I would rather have senior world finals appearances than an age group MVP award for lighting up the scoreboard/racking up pins and I bet they feel the same.
  6. Yes they should. And that is why athletics should be seperated from academic institutions a la Canada. Death to the NCAA, even though it means a near-certain death of our sport as well.
  7. No one wants to get Burkwick-Bono'd. Yara and other Ivy competitors will be the exceptions to the new rule. You are going to start seeing kids enter the portal Every. Single. Year. even if they don't plan to leave. Coaches could leave at any point and could recruit over kids at any point, now the scales are tipped closer to being equally balanced.
  8. Dominance is a factor for Hodge. It is not designed to be a career achievement award.
  9. I hope Kevin Warren’s parting gift before leading Da Bears to a better stadium en route to a Super Bowl title is a memo to coaches before B1Gs regarding MFFs. Be sure to email his office encouraging as much.
  10. How many years until Carr starts residency? And is there truth to the rumor he is being mentored by one Dr. Mike Kemerererererer?
  11. Nolf is the best in my opinion because not only was he a generational talent (4 finals, 3 titles) but he also dominated. It took another even greater year from fellow generational talent Bo Nickal for Nolf to not at least get the senior year bump after Zain wrecked the field the prior two years. Not saying they were not deserving winners, but Nolf will be nothing more than fodder in a decade and that's a damn shame because he was as innovative, daring, dominant, and exciting as it got.
  12. Probably as high as Myles Martin that one time
  13. Draft Kings has put the O/U for number of shoes wiggled by Brands at 1.5 so I think I'm going to hammer the over
  14. There are not many schools that fit a criteria of Top 50 school AND urban scene. State College and Iowa City are not booming metro meccas, and neither is Ithaca, NY. I guess you could kind of argue Chapel Hill/Durham is an oasis in NC? NYU, Stanford, UT Austin, etc. are few and far between. Even Miami (FL) is #55 so wouldn't meet this criteria, and it's a fantastic school.
  15. Bunch of oiled up orange politicians. Print that.
  16. FIFY Also, Warner is a great example of the need for a 97kg-esque light heavyweight weight class. He looks exhausted from sucking down even if he wrestles 2 hours after weigh-ins. And he is still a 3x AA, 1x finalist despite not being at an optimal weight.
  17. idk academics? Not everyone wants to go to Iowa or Wisconsin to get drunk for five years (4.5 if you try really hard second semester freshman year). Only Northwestern and Michigan have better p4p undergrad academics.
  18. So far it is confirmed that DePrez succumbed to HEW and this board has told me that Warner and Elam both have it too. Hoffman had it until he discovered a HEW vaccine at last years NCAAs. Who else on that list is HEW and we just don’t know about it on the internet yet?
  19. If Caffey is interested in continuing his wrestling career post-collegiately, I hope he strongly considers joining the greco team at IRTC. Medlin whiffed not going after him out of HS as an unpolished gem in this internet idiot’s opinion.
  20. The #1 ranked wrestler at 197 lost to a guy ranked only 19th!!! Word on the street is because HEW kicked in. I’m sure Mizzou twitter and forums are going crazy right now saying he should be replaced by the backups.
  21. They finally quit snoozing the Outlook reminder!
  22. Ishiguro really impressed me today, he just happened to run into a superstar that makes it look easy. No reason he can't be in the conversation for a bronze in 8 months since 86 is a real crapshoot after the top 2.
  23. Hall and Valencia both lost in the semis, went straight to bronze matches
  24. Dunking all over Kozak's take. Bet you never thought you'd be wrong to a broken clock didja?
