Carter Starocci faces allegations of sexual assault and theft
jackwebster replied to VakAttack's topic in College Wrestling
As has been suggested, I think Rash is really close to the principals here. His initial response to the discussion about anonymity kinda tipped his hand. The article and the message board pointed out that the women involved might want to remain anonymous bc they feared retaliation. His first objection was that Carter already knew who could speak out, so anonymity an illusion. The assumption is that Carter would be the one to retaliate. what an egomaniacal thing to say. It's like Rash is so distracted by the potential blowback against CStar that he fails to see the all the other (institutional) dangers whistleblowers face. The "retaliation" wouldn't be from Cstar; it would come in the form of university and law enforcement officials "pursuing the facts," making this person's decisions (good and bad) public. Internet misogynists then follow suit with even less info. The fact that this didn't enter Rash's mind makes me think it's him or a close friend. -
yes only going back 150 years makes it look menacing

Bac is the biggest psu apologist on this board. That snippet of the article has been shared with him at least 10 times in this thread. He doesn’t want to see what he doesn’t want to see.

As much as I dislike the PSU fan base. This isn't the way I want to see it come tumbling down. -
Disagreeing is a good thing, as a process of coming to common ground. It’s the very core foundation that built the greatest country in the world. And this whole R vs D and if you disagree with me you’re an idiot who shouldn’t be listened to mentality, is at the core of what will tear it apart. This place could be a good spot for wrestling brethren to discus world and national topics in a productive way. Unfortunately it’s mostly adults running around like elementary kids on the playground. Yes you and I haven’t seen eye to eye the majority of the time, but if you and I were just to have a simple discussion and ask me “how do you feel about (enter any national/international issue here)” you’d probably find we’d be in agreement a lot. On the contrary, I’d be open to listen to what anyone, for example RV and/or anyone he’s constantly in spate with, have to say about any issue, if they didn’t act like such jerks.

Penn State University police investigating? Nothing has changed since Paterno and Sandusky. It’s a community driven by athletic department interests. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I'll read the article when I have a minute. But whether he was warned about a coming ice age in high school (is he serious?), or not, the science surrounding climate change is consistent. Antarctic ice melt and ice core sample data (not to mention 100+ years of temperature records) illustrate our climate has been warming since the mid 17th century. So far at least, the author agrees. Although correlation doesn't indicate causation, it's certainly interesting that the warming timeline begins with the Industrial Revolution and accelerates in lockstep with our fossil fuel consumption. Science has also consistently demonstrated the mechanism by which fossil fuel burning might heat up a planet with our atmosphere (through the depletion of atmospheric ozone, increased carbon dioxide production, and subsequent greenhouse effect). A mechanism that matches our own atmospheric observations. But frankly, who cares whether we're wholly responsible, merely a contributor, or somehow, completely innocent? Certainly not the consequences, which we're only just beginning to experience (e.g. wildfires and hurricanes are suddenly becoming much more common, and much more destructive). And the author's 'gotcha' comments about incorrect predictions? Early predictions about Antarctic ice melt and ozone depletion were wrong. What he neglects to mention? That the predictions were actually way too optimistic.

Why is Tom Ryan even in this conversation? He is probably closer to retiring than Brands. JB is the only person who makes sense in the short term. He would attract a lot of recruits, generate excitement and hire a killer staff. That being said I don’t think Tom has any desire to hang it up soon. So I predict that he goes through 2028 then Spencer retires and Tom does a warm hand off with Spencer taking over after a year as assistant.

Yes. Give Ryan at OSU at a Bob Nicholls and I'd bet they compete with PSU...or are more competitive at least. Okie State... we already know. They went from a legend...one of the few coaches and athletes who was more decorated than either TnT. Great recruiting and great coaching is... what wins titles. Iowa had a group that maybe could have silenced the doubters with Keuter, Arnold, Ferrari, Deluca, Bassett, Miller, Mocco. They were gonna be STACKED from '49 up and they always find lightweight studs. '25 Deluca '33 Hernandez '41??? They'd find someone like Bailey '49 Bassett '57 Estrada(Or better, but I think HE is type of guy who needs the work on scrambling that Iowa doesn't provide. '65 Miller - We remember he NEARLY BEAT PJ DUKE '74 Arnold If he figures it out, he should contend for titles. '84 I'd say 3-4X NC potential(and he does have that potential) but I'd say it with my chest more, but this is the toughest weight moving forwrad. Sinclair, McEnelly, Ryder, Welsh and Ferrari? '97- Ludington? He's a stud HWT- Kueter NC This could have been their team for 2028 But...they can replace Bassett and Miler, they have good recruits, but I just see really good Wrestlers coming in and they can brawl or they're good at whatever they're good a and I don't see them really developing anything than what they came in with and it's usually brawling. I think Melvin Miller may have been a great fit...I don't know if Basett would have seen nearly as much improvement. But...who knows. And Iowa seems content to MOSTLY be 2nd best.

Over on the Penn State forum, a lot of the cult members (who preach "In Cael We Trust") are either defending Starocci (passively, actively, or passive aggressively), criticizing the reporting (when they are also unaware of what fully happened), or questioning Bartlett's account, words, or actions in either staying at Penn State through the years or now leaving. It's such a cult obsessed with Iowa; prone to religiosity; and focused on excommunicating anyone who doesn't toe the party line. While one naturally shouldn't "convict" solely on this basis, Starocci's character, as evidenced by his words, tweets, macho posturing and preening, threats to others, and self-involvement have repeatedly raised questions about who he really is; whereas Bartlett comes across as a likable stand-up guy, a supportive team member, and a humble athlete who respects his opponents.

That is my concern. Ben Askren isn't a normal schmuck like us who go to the Hospital, get home, get a bill and we say, 'well gee, this should have been covered.' It's one of the bigger news in sports. So if the insurance company is going to contest it...EVEN if he were a normal schmuck, you'd appeal it and then you'd have Hospital social workers who could help you navigate this, but a guy with money and a massive following? I won't entertain anymore of the stupid 'wow.... you don't know insurance companies suck,' posts, but for them to do this-this brazenly...it at LEAST makes you wonder if it's NOT an illegitimate denial. And I hope I'm wrong.

You must be reading a different thread than me if you took my postS to come to such a stupid conclusion. I gave you the mechanism to challenge the Insurance companies decisions. I said they deny legitimate claims... I'm well aware of how they work. For a sleezy year out of College or two I worked in Insurance. Please read the rest of my posts before "informing" me of what world I live in or how it actually works.
