A better question might be: what holes are the guys being poached going to fill next year? It's not like they haven't been reloading all along with a strong recruitment program. Cael and co. certainly aren't desperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Penn Statebfan pretending to be an Iowa fan pretending to be an Iowa fan. ... so he's everything that nobody wants him to be, yes? D3 1 1 Never argue with an idiot.

I’m not putting my buddies under the bus who told me Nah, I'm not demanding it. I know how it goes. Just wondering if you were free to share.

Jimmy Cinnabon Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 4 minutes ago, Formally140 said: That’s actually why the transfer portal and blatant poaching PSU does… pisses me off so much (I know they have been straight up going up to guys at the tournament). It’s not just “well guys want to go there” Theyre good coaches. So coach don’t poach It’s not just Penn State though. Iowa has had way more high level transfers than Penn State in the last few years. For example, Woods, Desanto, Eierman. Penn State has Dean. Kerk never wrestled in another singlet so I’m not sure he can be considered poached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragit Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Just mad props to the 165 field for the last two years of superstar wars. Top notch guys going at it in the strongest weight class, no ducking. Wick gave Griffith four shots last year; Carr gave O'Toole three this year. High scoring matches, impeccable sportsmanship. And for KOT to come through with convincing wins over national champs two years in a row positions him as a potential all time great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formally140 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Just now, Pa in Taiwan said: I don't know, dude. Look at the performers this year: the finalists RBY, Haines, Starrocci, and Brooks ALL started their collegiate careers at PSU. Kerk came over from the Ohio State U when Snyder moved to NLWC, so I don't consider that an outright poach. Bartlett and SVN, both third place finishers, also were recruited before freshman year. Not so much poaching, besides Dean. When theyre talking to guys the way I know they are. I look at it the same whether or not guys transfer. I actually look at other schools doing it askance too.

Milner gets extra props from me for not leaving App State I personally know a ton of guys that have wrestled and do wrestle for John Mark Bentley. They have a lotttttt of loyalty to him. He gives kids a chance when no one else would (Milner was a 1 time North Carolina state champion). Those kids would do just about anything for him. It’s why they don’t leave. I knew Austin Trotman well back in the day and was the first one that started that ball rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
