silver-medal Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 The thing about PSU is that everyone always thinks that "so and so's are graduating" so they'll be weaker. But then they reload and it's the same talk all over again. Bucks have a terrific young squad but they're not close to knocking off PSU anytime soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s back, unless maybe he hits the portal well he's probably going to demand a raise, so thats effectively hitting the portal. As far as what he says, the guy claims he doesn't care about anything until he's quitting and throwing tantrums. "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

steamboat_charlie Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 With Penn State’s resources, what they have returning, and how aggressive they’ve been in the portal, they’re the favorite for the foreseeable future. It’s fun to think about someone knocking them off but there are too many weaknesses in Ohio State’s lineup. Round of 12 wrestlers at 5/10 weights is not likely to get it done. Also, I won’t believe Starocci, Bartlett, and Kerkvliet are done until it’s logistically impossible for them to return. Whether or not you think Cael “needs” them, he’s not in the business of leaving things to chance. RBY was also supposed to be done. Wonder what on earth could’ve ever convinced him to come back… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a big dramatic announcement his senior year about returning for a final season and wrestled a half ass schedule before lostng to Vito at NCAAs last year. For the current PSU seniors with eligibility left, NIL $$$ might tip the scales in favor of them staying. I'm under the impression that they make some decent coin, likely more than they'd make if they left. Barlett was in national ad campaigns for Gatorade and had a deal with a restaurant chain; Starocci and Brooks had a deal with a Healthcare network. And son on. Caitlin Clark has demonstrated the value of NIL sponsorships to companies and brands. She's making around $3mil (estimated) this season and may have opened the doors athletes outside of football & basketball to receive more or better likeness deals. If a wrestler could make just 2% of what she brings in, it would be well worth their while to extend eligibility.
