PSU fan here. Bummed as this kid seems like a great kid and is really tough. That said, from his social media, being a Cowboy seems to suit him and cultural “fit” is always a huge driver for these kids. As long as he and Fix aren’t wrestling my guys, I’ll be cheering hard for them. Huge fan...
www.ohiowrestling.net has a strong focus on Ohio State. It's not extremely active and you have to be screened by the mod to post I think (no aliases), but it's a great place to lurk during the season and at the height of recruiting season. There are several insiders on that board who are...
Snyder can do that with the prize money doled out by the USOC, but not with endorsements and such. We'll see - it'll depend on his success in Rio and, who knows, big Jake Varner is gunning for him so he has to make it to Rio first.
Any possibility Tavenello (rd of 12 two years ago) bails on tOSU. Unless Snyder ends up taking the $$$$, he'd be Snyder's caddy - wrestling in duals when Snyder's in Siberia and such and then stepping aside when the fun starts.
He'd be a good target for you guys
Haha! Mikey Toggs always finds a way to make amends in a humorous way and bring me back to his side. You're a paisan! I'll let Al Pacino say it for me:
Your own histrionics aside, this is what was in the middle of your long post:

... Chance won't be the answer at 157/165 this or next year. Team chemistry isn't good, cut the cancer and move on ...

So who/what is the cancer? Sure seems like the second point follows from the...
Mike - unlike you I don't frequent other boards to tweak the posters on it, but your lack of any compassion for Chance seems 180 degrees different than the crocodile tears you shed multiple times for Thomas Haines when Cael recruited Nick Nevills over him. I seem to remember you saying Cael was...
Seems to me that the University of Texas' greed has indirectly led to deals like this. Their loss-leading Longhorn Network killed any idea of a Big 12 Network. Hence, there's no conference network standing in the way. Good for OSU.
The Big 10 network stifles the Big 10 schools in some...
Went very light last year - only 1 "name" recruit (Joseph). All of us PSU fans knew he was loading up for this year (and Spencer Lee next hopefully).
A lot of instate studs helps as well - that saves big $$$$.
Great post on our board by the way. Yeah, Chris Cline on that Flo board is a homer of homers - wonder if he's the guy.
On the Flo board, I wonder what the deal is with people on most threads randomly just replying with someone's name - is it some sort of inside joke?
