A billion Muslims would like a word.

Do we count David Arndt? I can't tell for sure if they seeded the 1946 NCAAs. He was a 2X returning champ and was placed on the end of the bracket. In 1941 and 1942 he won it as the #1 seed.

I feel like that was implied...

Does that include weigh-ins?

Mike Caruso

Yes, that was the easier of the two. But not easy.

Boom and kaboom. Well done.

Pat Smith was seeded #1 all 4 years he won it

Joe Williams and Pat Smith

No one's saying that. But if he were ramping up for a competition, there's be a stronger inference of intent to cheat. Since he wasn't, the inference cuts the other way. The point is that the supplement was allegedly purchased *after* he was sick (according to his dad), and he didn't find out about the negative test result until *after* Final X had passed. It isn't dispositive, but that too cuts in favor if it being inadvertent. Um, OK. Whatever that means. Well, the problem here is we don't know exactly what he bought, or how that product lines up to his explanation. His dad says he was "looking at his doctor’s report and all the things he’s lacking in. And he went to get supplements to replenish whatever it is that needs to be replenished." If I'm the USADA, I want to see what the doctor's report says, and whether/how the product he bought replenishes that. Again, it isn't a defense, but it might tend to show it was bought more for healing purposes than competitive purposes. Conversely, some are claiming he bought supplements that are literally called "DHEA." But do we know that? His dad says he bought "a supplement, a natural, plant-based supplement," which doesn't quite track, unless he's referring to the soy/yam from which I understand DHEA can be synthesized. I guess we'll find out. If it was literally called "DHEA," that's some next-level stupid and you can't claim it was ingested accidentally (only that you didn't know it was banned). This we won't know until the report comes out, but don't see the point in definitively stringing him up without knowing the truth. What's the basis for tagging the "asshole" label on Brooks, besides his misfortune of having gone to a college that kicked everyone's butt? I could do without his Christian proselytizing too but he's entitled to his views and I'm entitled to mine. You may find his outward religiosity cringey but a-hole is a stretch.

11986 for the win. Now we have two of the four timers. Who can get the other two. One is easier than the other.

Yeah, why wouldn't they just start speculating?!? Also, thank you for understanding the definition of that very complicated word "dismiss."

You have a point Joe Pa was 4 times the man!, but Cstar has 5 to Joe's 2; and the school got out of nothing thru all that. and Carl is winning 12 to 2

I agree with everything you said here. I just like reminding everyone that Mr. Pastry really wants to push the "Caliendo to 157" narrative.

makes no sense 157 is 13-14 deep next year with guys he has yet to crush and who are accustomed to the weight and competition. Match ups are matchups, he's won all those accept to number ones at 165

... the Sandusky law ...

My 'thinking' he could go 174 is that he has a different kind of monster to go through than Monster Mitch. I don't think he's the same animal at 157 as he is at 165. I don't think it makes any sense.

yeah creepy! but what law did this break? and nothing happened at there ? And sometimes they were not even alone. Maybe a team rule maybe school policy. He's no longer on the team; he graduated before disciplinary action.

It wasn't missed, it was just floating in a sea of what amounts to "I know you are but what am I", and then continued by the other half of the angry little fellaS (I know its summer school time, but you should still remember that an 's' on the end indicates plurality). But you're still so damn adorable!!

But we still have video of an underage girl going to the team sauna correct?

Lehigh gets a winner

This article doesn't even attempt to speculate as to why Gabe was dismissed. One thing is for sure - dismissed implies it was not his choice to leave.

The get out of jail free card is her desire to forget that she ever met him or it happened. I don't think she will put herself through that( public hearings and trials) since she willingly went to his house; all the rest is her word against his. Unless texts surface.

Someone missed my comment about the topic Huh? Someone’s not perfect like they think
