Say something nice

[peanut]

There’s a lot of negativity this time of year. So let’s use this thread as an opportunity to say something genuinely nice about a program you cheer against, or are tempted to cheer against. 

(I have nothing to add because I am happy for all athletes.)

[Boring]

I know I mock the Cowboys a lot on this board, but I do respect that most of their wrestlers can read and write.

One of Iowa's recruits has a nice looking mom.

Neil Erisman.  As a freshman in high school, he was already a force at 145lbs.  My alma mater had a successful senior wrestle Neil at a tournament.  After watching Neil's first match, I was surprised at his skill and thought Neil could beat our kid... but... strength against a senior?... Neil was in complete control and pinned our senior like he didn’t belong on the mat. Who is this kid? 20 years later he is coaching Little Rock into something legit. The team is making noise where people least expect it. Kudos to Erisman and the team!

I have nothing nice to say about the Green Bay Packers. Sorry @peanut, I just can't do it.

8/10s of Penn State's starting roster seem like really nice guys.

Their biggest data fan seems nice too, that's all I've got for now.

Fashion experts usually shy away from horizontal waistband stripes because it can make you look overweight, but Penn State wrestlers pull it off.

The Iowa Hawkeyes ... oh nevermind. 

[The Kid]

Nice

Oklahoma State is anti-waist band.

I appreciate Iowa and Michigan's fruitful use of NIL and the transfer portal

I think that was OU but it was still nice of you to say. 

[ionel]

Ohio State has some cool cats.  

[lisa morales]

Drexel isn't Penn.

For figuring out wrestling was a sport not long ago, PSU fans are really starting to learn the rules.

[Rassling2]

There’s a few super knowledgeable individuals in this forum who provide insight and clarity to the sport we all love - much appreciated.

[Mr. PeanutButter]

I noticed that not every single thread on the PSU board turned into a discussion on Iowa. I'd say the ratio is down to 9/10

[Elevator]

Do not root for Iowa or Ok State generally, but I do respect the investment and tremendous passion and work underlying their programs and wrestlers.  

[RandolphTJones]

I rarely watch ESPN these days because of the outlandish hosts/personalities they have, but I greatly appreciate the coverage they give the sport every year during Championship weekend; including battling against March Madness. 

[Konquest]

I am excited to see what Trent Hidlay adds to the broadcast team this year.  I have a lot of respect for the Hidlay bros.
