Which of his claims are false? -
I'm not sure of the details regarding the drama between Buchanon and Wyoming, but IIRC it was a dispute over a redshirt that boiled over into Buchanon leaving. Volk went back home to a school with more NIL money, and I haven't heard anything about Novak transferring, especially after getting a training partner in Carroll. Also, Laramie is not for everyone. It's definitely possible that some kids don't enjoy living in a "city" with a population of 32,000, especially if they're aren't big outdoorsman. It's one thing to think you'll enjoy it, it's another thing when you actually spend a year or two there and find out it's not for you.

We are looking for a wrestling head coach to lead Parkview, as the long time head coach has stepped down after 20+ years. The program is a feeder to a well established high school program ran by USAW Gold Coach and Indiana Hall of Fame Member Danny Struck. Jeffersonville is growing fast and has a school corporation that is dedicated to capital improvements. If you are interested, please contact Danny at dstruck@gccschools.com

Even then it’s only as long as he can get his stuff cheap. -
With the USA's struggles at 65kg over the past twenty years and the revolving door that is USA reps at the weight, I went back year by year to 2006 and looked found every medalist in Worlds and Olympics. During this span, 12 wrestlers have represented the red white and blue. 6 of them were 1 time reps. 4 have represented the USA twice. Zain has been the man on three separate occasions, and Metcalf leads the pack with 4 trips to the World Championships. This made me wonder if other countries have had a similar lack of continuity with their representatives, as well as similar struggles to place at the worlds most competitive weight class. Here are the most to least medals by country since 2006. 1. Russia: 12 total medals from 8 different wrestlers. 4 gold, 2 silver, 6 bronze 2. Japan: 6 medals from 3 different wrestlers. 4 gold, 1 silver, 1 bronze 3. India: 6 medals from two different wrestlers. 1 gold, 2 silver, 3 bronze 4. Iran: 5 medals from 3 different wrestlers. 1 gold, 3 silver, 1 bronze 5: Georgia: 5 medals from 2 different wrestlers. 1 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze 6. Cuba: 5 medals from 2 different wrestlers. 1 silver, 4 bronze 7. Hungary: 3 medals from Muszukajev. 1 gold, 2 bronze 8. Azerbaijan: 3 medals from two different wrestlers. 3 silver 9. Mongolia: 3 medals from two different wrestlers. 3 bronze 10. Turkey: 2 gold medals from Sahin. 11: USA: 1 gold from Zadick, 1 silver from Diakomihalis. 12. Italy: Chamizo 1 gold, 1 bronze / Armenia: 1 gold and 1 bronze. 13: Ukraine, Navruzov, Kazakhstan, Puerto Rico all with 1 silver and 1 bronze each. 14. Poland with 1 silver. 15. Moldova, Kyrgyzstan, and Albania with 1 bronze each. Some other interesting notes that I discovered during this research include.. No wrestler has won 3 golds at 65kg, and only three have claimed 2. Otuguru for Japan, Romonov for Russia, and Sahin for Turkey. Only Tushishvili of Georgia, Lopez of Cuba, Punia of India, Romonov, Muszukajev, and Yonemitsu have medaled 3 times at the weight. Only Tushishvili and Punia have earned four medals with 1 silver and 3 bronze respectively, and no one has 5 medals. Of the 40 medalists over the past 20 years, exactly 20 of those wrestlers earned just 1 medal at the weight class. I spent far too much time putting this together (I'm sure someone better with excel could have done it much faster than I) and maybe @Wrestleknownothing can create an interesting graphic from this information if it suits his interest. Nevertheless, if you actually take the time to read this, I'd love to for you to share any takeaways you might have from the information, how it pertains to USA wrestling, or just the landscape of 65kg as a whole.

Most overtly religious NCAA wrestler?
SNL Wrestling replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Anyone remember when Greg Kerkvliet won big tens and said it didn’t matter bc god?! I forget the exact wording but that one was for sure weird. -
Not that it matters, but on Sunday the ACs were on and it was actually cold before the wrestling started (greco for Central Regionals) - it stayed somewhat cool the entire time

Lunaticfringe replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Just because you are vocal doesn’t mean you are not fake. I work with 2 religious women and 1 acts like Brooks and Carr and the other is an older lady who says nothing. The older lady attends church a few times a week, donates her time at a homeless shelter and food shelf. The younger lady misses church all the time, whores around with different men all the time and won’t give someone a ride home 1 time who lives in her neighborhood. Actions speak a hell of a lot more than words and I doubt guys like Carr, Brooks, Dake or Snyder would help someone random roadside not in their cult. -
Novak transferred out?
-
Is he a good salesman but a dick of a coach? He seems to recruit rather well and develop as well having some guys who AA early career like Buchanan, Volk and Novak and others qualify early on but transfer out. I feel this might be more than NIL as he loses way more guys than schools like Utah Valley, SDSU, Oregon St.

Heard it was the Russians. Possible Russian sub off the coast and a commando frogman swam in, arranged the shells and escaped back to the sub in the middle of the night.
