Then at beat the 80 Olympic gold Russian after cutting 10 pounds in a day because he couldn't train because of some skin rash.

He pinned everyone in the Tublisi following the 80 Olympics. Only American to be Most Outstanding Wrestler

I know there’s no chance but…

Wait a second, that doesn’t look like sitting on the fence. Which is it? You should make up your mind…..or even better, have your own original thought. -
I think it is also important to note that Bo has been involved in MMA a lot longer than 3 years. He began pursuing it in 2019. DC was involved in trying to get Bo managed by Zinkin Entertainment, but it looks like Bo signed with First Round Management instead. That was November 2019. Bo was sidetracked by Covid (and so was everyone else) but I'm sure he was still training MMA, even going into 2021 Olympic trials. So, basically he has been a pro MMA fighter for about 5.5 years. That should be enough time to figure things out.

Alvarez can’t have another year…can he ?
1032004 replied to Cornell Kevin's topic in College Wrestling
Seems plausible he could get one for 2023 if they’re being more lenient now, he only wrestled once in January or later. I do appreciate your insight and agree with most of your takes, but aren’t you the guy that claimed Yianni could have had another year if he transferred somewhere else? (He couldn’t have) -
He did also basically say he still thinks he can beat Chimaev. Seems like he wants to have his cake and eat it too since he acknowledged RDR was better and said “everyone I’ve fought since my first fight has had way more experience than me.” I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect him to be champ caliber already, but I do think it’s reasonable to expect him to be top 15ish. I think the better question then is Bo overrated, is is RDR underrated.

Have you never heard the term: accomplice?

I have an Honorable Discharge, but I don’t remember considering the Constitution much while I was earning it and I don’t understand why you bring it up. You don’t seem to be strong on communication skills, you certainly have misconstrued this subject. NBC and it’s ’gotcha’ headline works for a minute, but disintegrates quickly upon honest review. Sorry, but TDS only works on the fellow afflicted.

“Don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?” This is the question he was asked. The context of the question is irrelevant. Why? Because one of the things that is in the oath of office, very similar to the same oath I took when I joined the military, is that I will protect and uphold the constitution. You either uphold it or you don't. You don't get to pick and choose which parts you don't want to follow. Which is why I believe Trump answered the way he did. Because he doesn't feel like he should have to, even though he took an oath saying he would. That's not how this works. Either you do it or you don't. And if you don't then he shouldn't be president. Just like if I didn't do what I was supposed to or did only what I felt like, I'd have been kicked out of the military.

Looking at his wrestle stat, and looking at the current rules for red shirt/med shirt and covid year, I don’t see this happening. 2020- Freshman 2021 - Sophomore 2022- Still a sophomore because of free covid year in 2021. 2023- Still a sophomore because of a medical shirt taken in 2022. 2024- Junior 2025- Senior * He never took a red shirt but you can’t use red shirts retroactively. Even if you could, he would not qualify for a red shirt in 2020, 2023, 2024, or 2025 due to the fact that he wrestled in duals each of those years. * Some said that he was trying to retroactively get approved for a medical shirt. The rules say that it needs to be done in a timely manner although that is quite vague. What is not too vague, is the rules that state it needs to be a season ending injury in the first half of the season. You also cannot have wrestled in more than 30% of teams matches. The only seasons that he could be trying to get a med shirt for would be 2023, or 2024. In 2023 he wrestled in much more than 30% of his teams matches, having wrestled in 8 of their duals plus Midlands. In 2024, he went way past the half way point of the season having wrestled in a dual meet every week of January with his last one coming on January 27, just 5 weeks prior to conferences. 2020 he wrestled at Big Tens…2021 was the free covid year so you can’t be awarded an extra year that never counted, 2022 he used a medical shirt, and 2025 he AA’d. So unless they completely disregard the rules for 2023 or 2024, he does not qualify for a medical shirt. * I argued with this knuckle head on facebook for far too long in regards to this last point He argued that he could get a red shirt year for 2021. No he can’t. 1- It was the covid year. The covid year was just the year 2021 not counting against ones eligibility. It was not a free year that you use whenever you please 2- He was not a first semester freshman in 2021 and he wrested in duals so no soup for you So does anyone have a clue on how in the world they think he is going to have another year?? Another way to visualize it is he wrestled 6 years and never did he use a red shirt in this time He had 1 medical shirt year 2022 (1/6) He had 1 free covid year 2021 (2/6) He had 4 seasons of wrestling 2020-2023-2024-2025 (6/6)

For Evan Bates, I have a couple of ideas: 1) Lehigh: Bates is an engineering major and this is Lehigh's specialty. They also have a relative opening at 197 2) Purdue: Another good engineering school - this time in Bates' homestate of Indiana. He would be an upgrade to Vanadia -
Good to know Marco was thinking of me.

Caveira replied to Tripnsweep's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Like presidents from every era didn’t consult their lawyers as to what was or was not constitutional. Him saying he had to consult his id a big fat nothing burger y’all are trying to blow into something they are not. -

Two wrestler stand out to me. Ivan Yarygin. It's not just the name of a tournament. A great siberian wrestler, extremely strong, and built like a greek god. Pinned everyone at runs at the Europeans, Worlds, and Olympics. He doesn't have the medal haul of other wrestlers, but he was so special. The other one is Tomov. Best wrestler to never win an Olympic Gold. Three times silver medalist and was number one in the world for 15 years. He was so talented that he beat a giant like Rostorotsky, after a 5 year lay off at his first tourney back. Choked terribly at the Olympics each time. If it wasn't for politics, I think he would have finally won at the 84 games.
