I will start counting and circle back!

Good stuff, I was hoping that you still read this forum. Is Fujinami coming back next year? I should've tagged you in this other thread

A small part of my post got deleted earlier so I'll be brief: I have a very strong feeling that many of the boosters, deep down, are more comfortable being a near lock at 2nd-4th (and the rare 5th) than taking a gamble on the new and unknown. I believe I read a post on HR in the past where Bob claimed he would be "done when Tom's done" so whoever the next coach is better generate an elephant's worth of eggcitement in order to keep the cash flowing

How do you know that it was not Snyder who requested not to be interviewed and USA Wrestling simply acquiesced (I learned that word from Pirates of the Carribean) his request?

Precisely.

The kid who asked Cael about sequencing.

Spencer Lee for player-coach, ASAP. I'm telling you, if Iowa waits too long Ohio State is going to make him a offer he can't refuse...

Assuming Pyles but I like to think it was the kid who asked Cael if he’d like PSU to sequence better

It's not extremely common. Wrestlers do it and that's about it, until other athletes start doing it and it snowballs. It's not a good trend either, delaying your kids start of school because you want them to be more mature than the others. The remainder have the choice of also hindering their starts or being behind the increasingly higher number of kids doing this for an athletic or developmental advantage. I mentioned this to my colleagues here in Ohio, and they were dumbfounded that it's normal practice for wrestlers. One of them recalled that their state champion classmate was held back after I said it, and that it was a secret to everyone in the grade. One mentioned his kids team getting walloped by a team of handpicked older kids ruining the league for everyone. I'd personally be embarrassed being a 19 year old senior year. What the hell are they doing in high school still? Move on to college and stop playing with the kiddies.

Yes apparently it was USA wrestling that did not make Snyder available for interviews (the only 1 of the winners that was not)

Who?

I think this is a great summation. When the Taylor to Iowa rumors were swirling, i was pro. Outside of him, I don't think there's a candidate that moves the needle that way available right now. Even Burroughs, who has only just in the last month expressed any interest in coaching.

Trip, you're a million percent right. it's embarrassing. what do you think the breakdown is between R's and D's in congress that can locate a particular country? how bout the people that vote R and D? bonus question: can your most recent Supreme Court appointee define a woman? dems are r e t a r d e d

To my knowledge, USA Wrestling never even acknowledged Kyle Snyder's arrest. I figured they would've posted something when he was temporarily suspended by SafeSport. (Kudos to FloWrestling.org for posting the story.) But, nope, the adults at USA Wrestling just closed their eyes, put their fingers in their ears and held their collective breath until the suspension was lifted. So, yeah, It's tough for me to blame the journalists when our programs don't want to act like their in charge.

You're being 'that' guy. You don't need to be 'that' guy, bro.

When you have a phone that can find Iran very easily, why teach that in school. This goes for basic math facts as well. Many HS'ers are ignorant of basic math facts because we can do that stuff on a calculator easily. Schools say they want to teach critical thinking but how can you think critically if you don't know the basic facts with which to think critically with? The schools are failing the kids. mspart

Does anybody know if any eligible wrestler accepted the U23 spot? They had until Monday to do so, but USA Wrestling didn't issue a list or a team yet. I wondered if they postponed it because of the Jax/Vito wrestle-off
