This is the answer, imo. But...why would they have wanted him to go 184? They recruited Truax from the portal...why make him cut more if Starocci can make the weight and it helps his Olympic plans.

It is as simple as if Starocci had chosen to not take a team-first mentality to it, he could have said the weight he was going and not given the coaching staff the opportunity to 'talk him down' to 174lbs.

That said, I am now on the 'BS' route, because he did intend to go 74 KG (163lbs) for OTT.

When Perry was going thru his Pee Wee Herman phase?

“I just feel like it was my natural weight. Talked to the coaches. I think they wanted me to go 184 last year, but I can be stubborn at times and things like that. So for me, I think them telling me to do something, I kind of want to do the opposite.

I'm guessing this quote from Starocci was before they got Truax, not after.  Like a discussion after the season ended, the Star said he's staying at 174, then Truax gets brought in.

That would make sense. Can’t imagine they’d do that to Truax after just pulling him in for his last year of eligibility.

Speaking of PSU , FLO might have messed up big time

If true, that is journalistic malpractice of a kind.

They might be talking about The Ohio State College or Oklahoma State College, Iowa State College etc.   Sure probably not Idaho State College.  They said nothing about him having fun in College so I think we should wait and see.

Typically news organizations are given advance notice of information so that they can have the story written and ready to go. But the info is under embargo until the news is broken by the person the info is about.

Pretty common practice in various industries to have reviewers swear themselves to secrecy before a product is released to the public.

Often times the brands will find a way to get “spy shots” out to build hype before the product is released. A new bike is seen in a lift line at Whistler or in the T1 at Kona. New shoes at Berlin, Chicago, etc.

I really hope Flo didn’t accidentally leak a young man’s big decision. That would be super shitty of them.

So apparently I haven't seen the show called Fargo, yet.  And now because of embargo and fargo sounding similar I want to.

Thanks guys.  As if I don't have enough shit going on.

I have only seen the season with John Hamm, Juno Temple, and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Highly recommended.

You need a simple plan.

That is legitimately the one I was thinking of starting with, too.  I believe the series is anthology in design (season to season, that is), right?

That plan is pretty simple.  Watch the season of Fargo with Jon Hamm (Season 5?).

Yes. As near as I can tell one season has nothing to do with the other.

I've only seen the movie.  Not planning to watch a series about a movie.  The movie was good enough.
