start with who has been in such a serious situation as snyder within the usa wrestling community ? no one comes to my mind. Theres a zillion college athletes and different sports. Just within D1 college football with 100 kids on a roster, all backgrounds, some from rough neighborhoods, not all the most lawful perfect citizens. How many of those kids are getting arrested for prostitution a year ?? it doesn't really happen. It's extremely rare and hard to get caught unless your straight up trying to by being on stupid sites like backpage. And now the chick was like 60....... This gets you automatically booted from college teams, pro sports players do it on the regular, and yet they never get caught. If they did probably booted as well. The image is worse then the actuality of the crime. I have no idea how long this suspension from safesport is, but I don't see the duration of any serious length of time listed. And no one finds it odd that most mainstream wrestling reporters; all they can muster about an opinion on the matter, is just like like everyone has skeletons , forgive, bible verse bible verse. I can only offer downey as someone else within usa wrestling as somewhat comparable - I'm sure there are many more - but it's been a clean operation But as it pertains to usawrestling what the hell did downey do ? punched another male kid in a fight (doesn't sound as bad as prostitution). Rode an injury out at iowa state and piss off jackson ? ...move high schools ? who freakin cares ....this isn't the dream team selection process, getting kicked off college teams or rtcs shouldn't prevent him from competing in tournament brackets for usa wrestling. Relating downey to being a douchebag rather then the merit of the laws he broke to be suspended within usa sanctioned wrestling only continues to highlight the disparity. I saw no bible thumpers of forgiveness then being mustered. only the opposite. If you can't see that i can't help you.

I don’t want to appreciate this, but I do

The only reason we’re hearing about this is that somebody neglected to show up with a greenback handshake. OR…this was the longest of long cons from the buckeyes.

again, i don't really have a grip on this one. but the iowa boards went from elated to bummed over the last two days. could be something, could be just noise. we'll find out tomorrow.

Sounds like H3 don't ya think?

let's say he's totally credible... nothing changes because the tweet was completely meaningless.

If Snyder were training at Michigan they'd have him start representing The Netherlands.

Hmmm anyone know what this means? Is this dude credible at all?

I've been saying the same thing...albeit about a different athlete. There was this Football player, set records, won a Heisman, 2,000 yards in 14 games, one of the 5 greatest backs of all-time. He says, no, no, did you hear about this guy. And I said, you mean the man who gave back as a sideline reporter, who has a genuine and affable personality, who helped a struggling actor stay at his house(in retrospect, maybe not a good move on his his behalf, but he just cared so much), who drew more eyeballs to week long drama about the ills of slavery, who became a millionaire in the NFL and made millions promoting our sport, put smiles on people's faces with Leslie Nielsen. So yeah...I heard about Orenthal James Simpson....a man of faith, a man without an addiction, who broke records, won a Heisman, elevated his sport, elevated the Buffalo Bills, gave back to his sport, brought awareness to people as an actor, brought joy to people as an actor... So if there is anything else you're talking about when discussing Orenthal Simpson, a man with a life filled with good deeds and take this one "not so good deed," and talk about anything else, then maybe the problem is you...(wow, I'm actually in awe of how deep this is) LOL...for the record, I am NOT equating OJ with Snyder...just this absurd logic. That being a great athlete means you're immune from criticism if it was only the one "not so good deed?" Also, no way was Gwiz vs Snyder the biggest match in NCAA History. Start with Taylor-Dake and then work back to rank them in terms of anticipation, but I don't care if it was the highest rated(and I can't find evidence it was)...that doesn't make it the "biggest." There were like 9 people who saw Snyder win his Gold and yet...we're talking about him because he's an Olympic Champ. Has it now? Did you see the suspension coming? Who didn't get the "benefit of the doubt" that Snyder has gotten? And this "relatable" nonsense. Who has this made him more "relatable" to? Why are even comparing Downey to Snyder? One has a much longer list and... did you say was more of a douche bag(without the World or Olympic titles). I'm not seeing a lot of similarities here.

Knox Jr. and Sr. pled not guilty to assault and purposely/knowingly causing bodily injury. "[Judge] Herman then granted a lengthy postponement, pushing the next court date off until Sept. 10." https://www.app.com/story/sports/high-school/wrestling/2025/05/14/anthony-knox-father-court-appearance-not-guilty-brawl-with-spectators-simple-assault-cornell-vianney/82647998007

South Park would have an absolute field day with PSU/Snyder if wrestling wasn’t a niche sport.

According to the wokester wingers on here China should have destroyed us already. But but but

Happy Jonestown Valley

And so will the next surge. Good grief.

Fake god is at the forefront of all psu interviews. No one cares. Psu is turning out a lot of morally bankrupt people while putting on the charade they are religiously astute people. That’s their issue. Not mine.

Yeah...that's just the thing. I WASN'T really debating anything. I just made a couple comments that I was dubious about the sex addiction, how Snyder would do the ask for forgiveness and become a better Christian thing and then that I really felt bad for his wife and I think that's more consequential than any potential suspension...and I got hit with the EVER so hot take that...child prostitution is bad...which of course...that's a hot take Well...that confirms it, he had no way of knowing if she was of age or not...

This wouldn't happen at Iowa, so we'll never know.

Wild cause God seems to be at the forefront of the battleground on the Snyder situation Snyder stuff has exploded into a volcano of pundits and preachers who are delivering the message. Essays, and houlier than yous. Everyone is exposing themselves as making these kinds of mistakes which is crazy. I actually haven't done something this bad as Snyder but that's just me personally. Its like some movie where Snyder has put a plant in everyone's brains to start speaking gospel. Snyder is a hypocrite caught in a prostitution sting...... What does that make everyone else ? Who didn't speak out for others (Downey) All that to say......the message and debate of the Snyder case isn't this complicated And can be done in a way without all the God fearing mountain top make it about me look at me im self righteous believe in God but I also do horrible mistakes etc but it's ok because I'm a Christian. wow sounds just like Snyder before he got busted !

Carter tweeting out a bible verse than posting like his actual self is the most PSU thing ever. Bunch of phonies.

The cop listed on the arrest record does appear to have done bodybuilding in the past. However, 1) No guarantee that is the one that posed as the prostitute. I’d honestly guess not if she was undercover 2) Those photos towards the top seem to be of multiple different people. In the link, the one matching the name is the one doing a push up but you can’t really see her face..

God doesn’t care about wrestling. Or sports. He doesn’t care you are pd3. And he most def does not care about pd3

Do you think God approves of this ? Does God believe support our brothers all the same, or only the ones we like.

No one cares about downy. Like literally no one. You know that right? He’s not gonna win a medal. He’s not in shape. He’s not gonna win anything. He skips events he registers for. He is sort of trash. That isn’t even his criminal crap. we know there is an 83% chance you are pd3 looking for your last chance at some 11 minutes of fame. You aren’t gonna even get 15.

Sounds just like how people treat Downey vs Snyder. I actually think people were bagging on pd even way back then let alone offering support lol It didn't even become about legalities or what was right or fair. People wanted to see pd go down because they thought he's a douche If Snyder has another incident of some sort, you won't see people happy and glad to see it like with pd. It will be sadness and sorrow. The double standard is so so wide
