Hmmm that's really interesting. mspart -
Is it possible they will be less stupid on this vote for mayor? mspart

They’re not fake pictures. But people with other health conditions (some also the direct result of Israel’s actions), are probably going to be the first to die from famine. It’s like the “BuT tHeY dIeD wItH cOvId, NoT fRoM cOvId” arguments all over again.

2025 Transfer Portal
flyingcement replied to Indiana-Hawk-Wrestling-Fan's topic in College Wrestling
Ryan Sullivan who started his career in 2020 at Pittsburgh as a redshirt then transferred to West Virginia for his first year of eligibility where he was a NQ at 133. He didn't wrestle during the 2022 or 2023 seasons. He wrestled for Clarion in 2024 at 141 as a starter with a solid record but did not qualify. He did not wrestle in 2025, and now he joins George Mason as the projected starter at 141. -
Edinboro, Clarion and Lock Haven vie for the same kids that Kent State does. None of them are still successful due to money and the lack of recognition of a degree. Kent read, Kent write, Kent State isn't really that much of a joke.

I’m sure your tifa bros agree. Now if only you can all coordinate getting out of your mommy’s basements on the same day and time. -
The people with the TDS won’t admit having it but will admit dreaming about Trump supporters. These wokesters sure are fun to listen to.

https://jonathanturley.org/2025/08/26/running-it-up-the-flagpole-why-the-trump-order-on-flag-burning-is-unconstitutional/#more-235125 Turley disagrees with Trump on this one. Essentially burning flags is protected. It cannot be used as a sentencing enhancement where it created an injurious situation or otherwise public harm. mspart -

Okay, if you hold the flag in your mouth, like it’s a cigarette, you can burn it. -

They are breaking the same law nonetheless. Here are the fire/candle rules established by the superintendent of Lafayette Square Even if they have a permit I see a lot of candles that aren't hand-held in that photo and where are the drip protectors? Finally, the max penalty for lighting a fire in Lafayette Square is only 6 months, which is 6 months less than Trump promised in his executive order. -
The best kids in that area are not going to Kent State, I hate to break that to you.

Which teams have some good weight class battles?
MNRodent replied to flyingcement's topic in College Wrestling
These were the two weights to watch in my mind as well. 174 seems to be truly open. Whiting is better defensively and Riddle better offensively. I think Hwt is Hopke's to lose, mainly because 4 years left vs. 1 year. No common folkstyle opponents since Koy doesn't have a collegiate match yet, but he beat Jarrett Stoner, Mizz in freestyle who beat Tabor in folkstyle last season. Koy also has a freestyle win over Nathan Taylor right after high school. -

Our All-Quarter Century team takes us out big into the Big Ten to highlight the program at the University of Michigan. Michigan started this quarter century with eight straight top ten finishes and ended with eight-in-a-row between 2016-24, before missing out in 2025. Michigan is a program consistently in the hunt - individually and as a team. They regularly bring in highly ranked recruiting classes. Their wrestlers are annually in the mix for high Big Ten finishes and All-American honors. The most recent Olympic Games featured Michigan grads wrestling heavyweight in both the freestyle and Greco-Roman tournaments. Additionally, two other former Wolverines represented other nations in Paris. In constructing our first, second, and third teams for Wolverine wrestling this quarter century, we had to get creative from 149-157 lbs. Since Eric Tannenbaum spent the first half of his career at 149 lbs, he was inserted there and it provided the flexibility to include both Ryan Bertin and Ryan Churella on the first team. One wrinkle that impacted Michigan more than any other program we’ve highlighted thus far is the transfer portal. They’ve had some great wrestlers join the program - two that won NCAA titles elsewhere. Generally, I’ve tried to give the benefit of the doubt to someone who spent more time in the Michigan singlet; however, in a case like 125 lbs, resumes weren’t equal. You have to marvel at the depth at a few weights for the Wolverines. Heavyweight with the two Olympians and a three-time AA from a loaded weight. 149, 157, and 174 are also excellent and three-deep with multi-time AA’s. As always, if you have thoughts or your version of the team, leave them in the comments or InterMat’s forums. Wrestlers considered for the three teams had to compete from 2001 to 2025. For the wrestlers early in this timeframe, their entire collegiate body of work was considered. Only collegiate results were taken into consideration. Even if a wrestler was successful at multiple weights, they were only selected for one weight - typically, it was based on the strongest possible first team. After the three All-Century teams, there are some fun facts about Iowa State’s results over the past 25 years. Here are the programs we’ve already covered Arizona State Cornell Illinois Iowa State Lehigh Minnesota Missouri NC State First Team 125 lbs - Nick Suriano: Paramus, New Jersey - 3x AA (1,1,2), 2x NCAA champion, 3x NCAA finalist, 2x Big Ten champion 133 lbs - Stevan Micic: Cedar Lake, Indiana - 3x AA (3,2,4), 2018 NCAA runner-up, 2018 Big Ten champion, 2x NCAA #2 seed 141 lbs - Kellen Russell: High Bridge, New Jersey - 3x AA (1,1,7), 2x NCAA champion, 4x Big Ten champion, 3x NCAA #1 seed 149 lbs - Eric Tannenbaum: Naperville, Illinois - 4x AA (2,4,6,4), 2008 NCAA runner-up, 2x Big Ten champion, NCAA #1 seed 157 lbs - Ryan Bertin: North Royalton, Ohio - 4x AA (1,3,1,6), 2x NCAA champion, 3x Big Ten runner-up 165 lbs - Ryan Churella: Northville, Michigan - 3x AA (2,4,3), 3x Big Ten champion, NCAA #1 seed 174 lbs - Steve Luke: Massillon, Ohio - 3x AA (1,2,6), 2009 NCAA Champion, 2x NCAA finalist, 3x Big Ten champion 184 lbs - Myles Amine: Brighton, Michigan - 5x AA (2,3,3,3,4), 2x Big Ten champion, 2x NCAA #1 seed 197 lbs - Tyrel Todd: Bozeman, Montana - 3x AA (4,3,5), 2009 Big Ten champion, NCAA #3 seed 285 lbs - Mason Parris: Lawrenceburg, Indiana - 3x AA (1,5,2), 2023 Big Ten champion, 2023 Hodge Trophy winner Second Team 125 lbs - AJ Grant: Clarkston, Michigan - 2x AA (4,4), Big Ten runner-up, NCAA #4 seed 133 lbs - Dylan Ragusin: Elk Grove Village, Illinois - 1x AA (5), 2024 Big Ten runner-up 141 lbs - Stephen Dutton: Miller Place, New York - 1x AA (7), NCAA Round of 12 finisher 149 lbs - Josh Churella: Northville, Michigan - 3x AA (4,2,8), 2007 NCAA runner-up, 2005 Big Ten champion 157 lbs - Alec Pantaleo: Canton, Michigan - 3x AA (3,5,6), 2018 Big Ten champion, NCAA #4 seed 165 lbs - Cam Amine: Brighton, Michigan - 4x AA (8,4,4,7), 2022 Big Ten runner-up, NCAA Round of 12 finisher 174 lbs - Shane Griffith: Westwood, New Jersey - 4x AA (3,5,2,1), 2021 NCAA champion, 2020 Pac-12 champion, 2024 Big Ten runner-up 184 lbs - Andy Hrovat: Gates Mills, Ohio - 3x AA (7,4,8), 2022 Big Ten runner-up, NCAA #3 seed 197 lbs - Jacob Cardenas: Kearny, New Jersey - 3x AA (4,4,8), 2x conference champion (1x Big Ten, 1x EIWA), NCAA #1 seed 285 lbs - Adam Coon: Fowlerville, Michigan - 3x AA (2,3,2), 2x Big Ten runner-up, NCAA Round of 12 finisher, NCAA #2 seed Third Team 125 lbs - Conor Youtsey: Parma, Michigan - 2x AA (5,6) 133 lbs - Foley Dowd: Howell, New Jersey - 1x AA (6), 2004 Big Ten runner-up, NCAA #4 seed 141 lbs - Sergio Lemley: Chesterton, Indiana - 2x NCAA qualifier, NCAA Round of 12 finisher 149 lbs - Austin Gomez: Carol Stream, Illinois - 2x AA (2,4), 2x Big Ten finalist, 2022 Big Ten champion 157 lbs - Will Lewan: Chicago, Illinois - 2x AA (8,5), 2x Big Ten runner-up, NWCA 2nd Team All-American 165 lbs - Logan Massa: St. John’s, Michigan - 3x AA (5,5,3), 2x Big Ten runner-up, NCAA #2 seed 174 lbs - Otto Olson: Everett, Washington - 3x AA (5,3,2), 2x Big Ten champion, NCAA #1 seed 184 lbs - Domenic Abounader: Gates Mills, Ohio - 1x AA (5), 2015 Big Ten champion, NCAA Round of 12 finisher 197 lbs - Kyle Smith: Butte, Montana - 2x AA (7,7), 2x Big Ten 3rd place 285 lbs - Greg Wagner: Fort Wayne, Indiana - 3x AA (3,4,6), 2006 Big Ten runner-up, NCAA #3 seed Fun Facts During the last quarter century, Michigan has had five wrestlers combine to win seven national championships. Two wrestlers captured multiple national titles (for Michigan) during this span - Bertin and Russell. Suriano won his second title at Michigan, but his first at Rutgers. Michigan wrestlers have combined to make the NCAA finals 18 times since 2001 Since 2001, there have been 12 occasions where a Wolverine has earned the #1 seed at the NCAA Tournament - led by Russell who did it three times. Michigan has finished in the top 20 at the NCAA Championships 22 of 25 times during this quarter century They have finished in the top ten 16 times since 2001 Michigan has earned four NCAA team trophies during this time - highlighted by two runner-up finishes (2005 and 2022). 2022 saw Michigan post their highest point total in this quarter century (95 points). It was also the only time they’ve had six All-Americans in the last 25 years. Three Michigan wrestlers earned All-American honors four times (Bertin, Tannenbaum, M. Amine). Additionally, Cam Amine was a three-time AA for the Wolverines and once for Oklahoma State. Shane Griffith was a three-time AA at Stanford and added a fourth at Michigan. Michigan wrestlers have gotten on the NCAA podiums 79 times during this time period. Additionally, one wrestler was named to the NWCA First Team and two more to the Second Team in 2020. Individually Wolverine wrestlers have captured 24 Big Ten championships during this span. Michigan won the 2022 Big Ten title, as a team, and it was their first since 1973. Only two men have led the Michigan program during the last 25 years and both (Joe McFarland and Sean Bormet) are alums. 2023 saw Mason Parris become Michigan’s first Hodge Trophy winner. In 2012, Kellen Russell became the first Michigan wrestler to capture four Big Ten titles. At the time, he was the 11th wrestler to achieve the feat.

Actually, we're planning on burning some American Eagle jeans at our next one. Double whammy. Anyway, we're not supposed to reveal who we are on this forum. I actually just put it on the air intake for the car itself. More protection, and it makes the wingers more angry. -

Chicago deserves him. What an idiot they voted in.

Honestly NE Ohio and Western PA might be the best region in US for wrestling period correct? I know that is up for debate. With that said Kent State, especially with the removal of Cleveland St, and a locked in new coach should turn it around? Or are the power 4 conferences just to alluring? Money of course being the biggest factor along with winning, duh. But I commend what Josh Moore is trying to do!
