Extra covid year, with a piece of NIL included. The game is to spend a whole year acting like you are probably not coming back and leverage a bunch of NIL money to return. Add Bartlett to your list, too.
I don't think Trent would get a wrestle-off.
I'd imagine Taylor is in Stillwater full time within the next week or two. Probably sooner rather than later.
Fun fact: Taylor wrestled Kennedy's sister in 8th grade. He was terrified of her because she had a mean headlock and was a girl. Very scary for a prepubescent boy. Taylor won by fall.
Years later, he married the girl with the mean headlock.
Here's a complete guess with no basis in reality, other than they grew up as really close friends/training partners: Logan Stieber to Oklahoma State.
(My guess is he is too tight with everyone at the other OSU, but would be very interesting!)
Yes it is all very weird. I hope he is our man in Paris (and wins gold), and I hope nothing funky happens to the NCAA results. Just something that occurred to me!
I think it is fine with NCAA if you have TUE, however I think it is possible that if you are disciplined by the governing body of your sport then the NCAA disciplines you as well? I suppose things could get very complicated.
