  2. Columbia janitors sue protesters who allegedly held them hostage inside Hamilton Hall — and reveal chilling maps from ‘coordinated’ attack
  3. yeah i knew you would memory hole it
  4. if you haven't figured it out yet.. he's MS 13
  5. Very nice of you to say! For anyone was was interested in the best sources for transfer portal news, Jon Kozak at Flo has been running this list that shows dates of portal entry by weight, by school, including past accomplishments. It's a huge list and has been a great reference this year. https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/13994973-2025-ncaa-d1-wrestling-off-season-transfer-tracker for a quick glance at who is currently still in the portal, I think wrestlestat has a nice view which is updated quite regularly: https://www.wrestlestat.com/transferportal Intermat keeps a solid list as well that can be a good reference source: as you can imagine - information flows through all different channels for transfer portal news, so sometimes one source gets the update before another does. as an example, intermat has been the only ones showing the Clem brothers from West Virginia to Sacred Heart. Other updates Flo will have first - or Wrestlestat - it's hard to predict.
  6. i was told trump wanted everyone afraid... it sounds like you are the fearmongerer
  7. That's a bummer and quite a surprise. He seems to be close with Dee
  8. A selfless act of humanity—much respect.
  9. He looks like a Braunagel - with more hair
  10. I think Minnesota will recruit the state of Iowa hard this year ('27).
  11. Bo started out in Masvidals iKon Fighting Championship,
  12. @flyingcement I respect your commitment to reporting the transfer news here. I'd miss a lot of info without this thread.
  13. I have a hard time understanding how this happened. I know my credit card company would flag and reject the purchase and would expect Amazon to reject it as well.
  14. The guys fighting for belts in Bellator, ONE, etc. are a lot better than the guys at the bottom of the UFC. By the way... Bo started in iKON...
  15. Today
  16. The bill was 43,000 dollars. Anyone else have some good stories of other kids doing things similar to this.
  17. As for your other question, is there an optimal seed for overperforming? Below is how the seeds have unfolded in the last eleven years by relative performance bucket. It looks like the 8 seed is probably the value play. But value is a relative term. It assumes you are "buying" the seed like in a pool. If it just a question of probability of placement, you still want that sweet 1 seed. That said, not only does the 8 seed beat almost 43% of the time, but by doing so it gets into the juicy portion of the scoring curve (see below). While the 25 and 26 seeds are the only ones to outperform their seeds more than half the time, they typically are not jumping into the AA slots where they can really impact team scoring.
  18. The crazy part is that this isn't shocking at all. Robie is as genuine as they come.
  19. Not exactly what you’re asking, but I would have paid good money to see Karelin at his best vs. Lopez at his best. Firmly believe Karelin would win, but would love to find out. If Adam Saitiev had a different brother, who knows what he could be at 74. He was so damn undersized and yet won. Those brothers were the definition of what a technician in Wrestling is.
  20. Mr. Tripnsweep. I hope that the phone number to the Whitehouse I provided for you was helpful. Please use it as often as you like. I would hate to see you die on this hill.
  21. That's the best NIL I have every heard of. Who else gives the family a kidney? On a more serious note, you can't ask for better people than that. What a great story. Can't help but be a fan after this.
  22. Regressing at the individual wrestler level is problematic as the data is not continuous because exact placement only goes to eight. For example, if the 33 seed wrestler wins one match they finish in the 17 to 24 range. But where in that range? Got me. And the discrete jumps are largest for the lowest finishes. Wrestlers who finish 0-2 in (ish) are a group of 9. Wrestlers who finish 1-2 are a group of 8. The round of 12 and 16 are groups of 8. And everything else is groups of 1. So measure to the mid-point of the range and regressed at the team level in an attempt to smooth out some of the discontinuity, but that was pretty unsatisfactory. The R-squared was a paltry 0.1255. Here is what that looks like for the 21 teams that averaged 6 NQ per year filtered down to just the years they had at least 5.
  23. And its not true either. Bo started out in the IFC.
