Brennan

[Spencerlee]

I don't want to hear these small school coaches complain about preferential treatment for big schools ever again. This is blatant cheating and they are going to get away with it.

Thought Biden already did, hence why he started the season. 

But was it signed with an autopen?

He's more likely to start an insurrection, impose tariffs, hawk some cheap product with his image on it, or request construction on the arena and stiff the Philadelphia workers by never paying them.

I love when this board turns political.  That's why I watch college wrestling, in fact.

SocraTease in case you haven’t watched the news, there may already be an insurrection started and it’s not the people on the right burning Teslas, charging stations and taking over buildings. You may also have forgotten about our cities being vandalized and burned as well.

Please, I beg you. Go to the cities you think are on fire. They are fine. We are fine. I have no other comment on this because I have no interest in getting into political arguments on a college wrestling board. I'm with @NormMacDonald (RIP).

Who certified him twice before it was ratified by the Pac-12?

[mspart]

The issue is that Brennan got 5 years of post seasons including this one so he should be out, right?   What about Starocci?

To wrestle 5 postseasons you must have wrestled the 2021 'free' Covid year. Brennan did not. He wrestled Pac12's in 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025.

Yeah that’s bad. It seems so simple to see he wasn’t eligible too. I’d also like to know who certified him? I highly doubt it was someone from the NCAA

It would seem to be the school. The school looks to the conference or the NCAA for ratification. The conference looks to the NCAA for ratification, but not the school.

Or maybe it was just some jamoke on this message baord.

Interesting that it was the Pac 12 that first ruled him ineligible and then they didn't even get to send a Pac 12 guy. Ouch

Yeah, that's what happens when you send an ineligible wrestler.

I keep seeing people in this thread stating Carter Starocci got special treatment. People keep saying he was given an extra year. Does everyone know that he was not singled out and given an extra year? You do realize that this isn’t a Carter Starocci got an extra year while this kid not right? Because it sure seems like a lot of people don’t get it.

It's true. There are plenty of people who wrestled the same four pre-2025 seasons as Starocci. The difference between Starocci and the others is that Starocci is undefeated in the postseason.

My guess is they get it.  Either f@n haters or don't like the rule.

Way to wait until the last moment for the NCAA
