BaldAt23 Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 It seems like all Penn state wrestlers talk about how much faith all the members of the team have. It makes me think they might not be very accepting of a wrestler who is not religious. Any thoughts on this?
El Luchador Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 Well I don't know if that's accurate or not but whatever is going on there is working. Although I think statistically most people have some level of faith. 1

jchapman Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 Carl recruited Andrew Long twice, so I’d say anything goes at Penn State. Craig Henning got screwed in the 2007 NCAA Finals.

Paul158 Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) Isn't it nice for a change to hear about young men who are hard working, very dedicated student athletes. Who just happen to have faith. I'm good with that. Edited March 6, 2023 by Paul158 missed a word 2

He probably would dislike that actually
