I'm doubting it would come to that, but could potentially get weird from the time of the positive test in the Fall.  I don't think anyone will really want to see that happen.

I’m totally slippery sloping ….. but could it impact team titles ?   The scoring record ?   If he’s illegally on peds maybe it should.

I’m guessing if he gets bounced from the Olympics the ncaa could take some of his ncaa titles away no?

I suppose it is theoretically possible, but is there precedence for the NCAA vacating individual accomplishments for a failed test like this in wrestling?  I don't recall them stripping Fix of anything.  Maybe he just had fortunate timing as he was Olympic redshirting the year he failed a test.

Thy suspended him, but indeed it was during his redshirt.

On FRL today CP got a text mid show that Aaron Brooks was cleared by WADA.

100% lying.

Keep in mind there are three types of lies: 

1. lies of of commission

2.  lies of omission

3. character lies

Brooks is certainly not being truthful in one or more of those ways.

Expand  

Which one is it then? 

lies of commission, which entails making a flat-out untrue statement, I missed where he had the flat out falsehood.

Omissions are not necessarily untrue, but they are misleading.  If he had a TUE wouldn't that mean you can nullify the lies of omission?  

Character lies are not necessarily untrue either, but they do attempt to create a false or misleading impression.   Was he taking Vyvanse for ADHD or a competative advantage?    I have a hard time believing its the latter. 

without the whole story,  it's hard to say if he will be sanctioned.

Mr brooks posted today Aaron is cleared and ready to go for Paris but if you guys want to go on for a few more pages about how his ncaa titles are going to be stripped that’s cool too

Oh no,  if True there will be gnashing of teeth by the anti brooks crowd.  

I hope its true,  I hope it wasn't a lie.

I think you are telling a lie.  100%  you are obviouly not happy to hear it.     You were 100% sure that Brooks was lying.

I think he left stuff out, but I am all for him winning a gold.  Who else would I root for?

(And I will still never support Fix)

[Scouts Honor]

he has been cleared

[pokemonster]

He's lucky............... I wonder who paid for the lawyers, hopefully Mr Brooks himself.

All that being said, good for Aaron and USA, I'm hoping he gets to go against Yazdani.

Chael said that if WADA had authority any money spent on lawyers would be a waste.  I suppose this could be interpreted multiple ways.  One way would be that winning is impossible.  Another would be that if you had a winnable case hiring a lawyer would not increase your chances of winning.

Chael is a bonehead,  for a former wrestler he comes off as semi clueless.  he constantly gets stats wrong,  calls folk college style and explains like he is talking to a bunch of elementary kids that have never heard of wrestling.    A point that can be made in 30 seconds fills a 12 minute clip.

You are being hypocritical when you say it is not about PSU, but about PSU fans.

There is a major difference between the Fix situation and this situation. In the Fix situation we had a statement of facts released by the investigating authority. Here we have a Minnow rumor followed by a fan-boy interview with softball questions.

Expand  

I'm confused why multiple people have commented about "a Minnow rumor," considering the athlete himself acknowledged that the only thing that was wrong about the Minnow rumor was the name of the specific drug.

Glad to hear he's been cleared, hopefully he learned his lesson.

The Vyvanse should help that.
