you want to talk about doing Iowa State dirty, lol. $hit, he had his brother staying on campus for free, using all the Iowa State facilities for free. Wrestlers would be getting in cold tubs, his brother would be in there. He is looking for a big pay day, not sure what he will do after this. Frost will for sure go up to 141, I think he will have better success there. Whoever gets ECH will get a for sure AA, but there will be family members coming too. 

This would make a lot of sense then, and be a great reason to move on from someone. Super weird that family members not on the team are being treated to the team benefits, and without someone from the U showing up and being like “umm no, you are an athlete enrolled here, so you have access. He does not. Fix it or leave, and we will head to court for the NIL/scholarship money to be returned” or whatever

Sketchy Etch has always seemed like A LOT

Reminds me of the dude from my frat that brought his brother to EVERYTHING. Even tried to bring him to our semester retreat where we did our super secret rituals. He eventually got excommunucado

While we are piling on Ech, keep in mind when talking about potential destinations that he did try to kill his (ex?) wife.

I imagine EVERY school with a woman AD or a Women's program will automatically say no.

And he did go up, got hurt one month in, got an infected ankle and now has an easier time making 141. 
 

Good chat. 

Guess he didn’t want to go 141 after all?

I'm guessing all this attention that Iowa is giving to 149 transfers means Block is going 157. He looked bigger than most of his competition and looked comically huge when wrestling Casey Swider

Wasn't the reason AJ never ended up at Iowa was because of the AD? Why would they let Ech enroll? 

[VakAttack]

 

Fine, you win Ohio State.  You take Ech, we'll take Schubert.

It seemed like AJ was going to get in until the double bird, not the sexual allegations.

She hates rapists.

We'll see if she hates attempted murderers.

Double bird is some serious stuff, obviously bigger than that other thing

Then ech won't go there

Sort of portal related.... Ramos just posted new recruiting rules for 2028

Call can start Aprl 1 of Junior Year

Home visits start June 15 after junior year

Official visits start August 15th prior to senior year

I think this is good for kids who commit early to 3 different schools. I hope they adjust the portal opening a little to give coaches time to make calls then focus on the portal. Overlap would be a lot.

So Ech back to the Buckeyes and Stiles up to 157?

Seeing apparently that Jaxon Smith to Pitt is in the works according to CP. I hadn't heard anything about that on the Pitt end but will keep eyes and ears peeled now
