Holtfan Posted March 21 Posted March 21 (edited) It is fair question, following the Quarterfinals match. Some may call it whining, but some believe he had a legitimate claim for a challenge, and the corner didn't even consider losing a brick. So does Davis feel his time there is done, and he heads to a different program who will respect him just as they would anyone of the other stars on the team? Just my view from the cheap seats........ (and no, I have not read ANY comments on here about it to date---only my thoughts after watching the match, and then watching again on replay). Edited March 21 by Holtfan
The_KC_Godfather Posted March 21 Posted March 21 If he stays, I don’t think he’ll ever be in the lineup again. There’s such a traffic jam at the lower weights. Lilledahl and Desmond at 125, Blaze and Ono at 133, Cunningham/Nagao/Davis at 141. And even if he redshirts, the following year you have Sidun and Burnett coming into the mix. I think he redshirts then transfers out for his final year.

The_KC_Godfather Posted March 21 Posted March 21 My question is, does one of Lilledahl/Desmond transfer out? And does Blaze RS and let Ono go, or is there any possibility he leaves to join his brother after he finished 4th?

The idea that a coaching staff doesn't respect a guy because they didn't use one of their 3 challenges for the weekend. What a sad read on a situation.
Jimmy Cinnabon Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Honestly, I like Davis but he isn't good enough to start anymore. Crazy to say as a former #1 seed at NCAAs and 5th place finisher, but he's just not good enough currently.

I believe we all can agree that in the same situation with a questionable TD late in the match with Lilledahl, Mesenbrink, Haines, or Barr, the corner tosses the brick. Edited March 21 by Holtfan

Wasn’t not using a challenge allegedly part of the reason for Peterson leaving Rutgers? Edited March 21 by 1032004

BIGTENFANBOY Posted March 21 Posted March 21 If Davis was at most other programs, he would be the face of the program and likely their best wrestler. At PSU hes been viewed as the weak link, 2 seasons in a row. Thats gotta play on his mind, and could explain his resentment and frustration. 1

Competitors hate to lose, and doesn't matter how much of a good sport the opponent is.

Braeden Davis Accused Of Resisting Arrest After Frat House Altercation Aidan Conrad | Onward State By Joe Lister 4/23/25 6:05 pm Penn State wrestler Braeden Davis was accused of resisting arrest, evading arrest or detention on foot, criminal trespass, consumption of liquor or malt or brewed beverages, and public drunkenness. The accusations add up to three misdemeanor and two summary offenses. According to a criminal complaint, Davis and a friend were seen leaving the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity house at 1:35 a.m. on March 29 — the week after NCAA Championships — after police received reports of two males trespassing on the property. When police arrived, Davis and the friend were arguing with a Standing Stone security employee, hired as security for the house. Police heard the security guard ask Davis and the friend to leave, and the two had been asked to leave twice beforehand, according to the affidavit. Before identifying Davis or the friend, police said they could identify the smell of alcohol on Davis’ breath. While talking with the officer on the scene, Davis asked if he could leave, and the officer said he could not until he had been identified, per the affidavit. Davis then moved his friend in front of the officer, which the officer saw as an attempt to flee. Police grabbed Davis’ sweatshirt, and Davis attempted to flee, tearing his sweatshirt, per the criminal complaint. Police caught Davis within 10 yards, identifying themselves as police and ordering him to stop resisting. After a struggle, Davis was subdued by police. Police noted that after the struggle, Davis broke the officer’s wristwatch and radio earpiece, and ripped the body camera out of the officer’s vest. After police took Davis to the station, he was identified as 20 years old and transported to Mount Nittany Medical Center for an alcohol overdose, according to the affidavit. Police later found Davis’ BAC was .225% at the time of his arrest. “We are aware of the charges against Braedan Davis,” a Penn State Athletics spokesperson said in a statement. “These alleged actions do not reflect the values and standards of our program and will be addressed. We will not comment any further as this is an ongoing legal matter.”
