I don’t know if anyone else is having the same issue but these ads are so damn intrusive. They often cause the page that I’m on to refresh and they take up a good portion of the screen. I’m all for monetizing your site and getting that money. However this is probably the worst user experience for a site that I visit on a near daily basis.2 points

According to the Google …. I don’t know him or his story. Didn’t see him until I saw that trailer I do know this The left would never prosecute Wrongfully people who make them look bad, right? The charges in the case were reduced from a felony to a single misdemeanor count of entering a federal building under false pretenses.2 points

I will never forget my grandmother that refused to leave her bedroom for well over a year until she became brittle and died (not of covid). I will never forget the absolute panic and anxiety the media caused my healthy wife who had zero scientific reason for concern. I will never forget or forgive my CEO forcing my colleagues and me to vaccinate or face termination. I will not forget that my son went from doing well to failing foreign language immersion school when given months off school and then moving to remote schooling. I will never forgive the media and government for the lies and control and censorship well beyond the point the data showed their bullshit. I'm aware that people were harmed and died from covid. The measures were worse than the sickness.2 points

1. He is not technically a convicted felon. That happens at sentencing. He has not been sentenced. Therefore he legally is not a convicted felon. 2. His court case will be thrown out as there were no specific allegations against him for anything he did wrong. The 33 allegations read similar to as follows: "He cooked the books in furtherance of some other crime." The first item was a misdemeanor not allowed to be prosecuted due the statute of limitations. And the second item is supposed to be what makes this a felony. Please point out the specific felony indicated. Right and the appellate court won't be able to either. This case will be dismissed as it should never have been brought in the first place. mspart2 points

Yes there policy is Orange man bad. try to destroy him through the courts encouraged by the DOJ. Militarize the liberal media with 99 percent of all stories on Orange man to be negative filled with hateful false rhetoric. Then finally if that doesn't work they have Project Terminate Orange man. Find someone to assassinate bad Orange man. I'm sure I missed a few.2 points

It was a terrible movie and it was especially terrible if you wanted to know what happened in regards to the true story - like often happens in Hollywood they decided to spin a tale that was far removed from what actually happened. Mark Schultz was done competing (in FS Wrestling) in 1988 - the murder happened in 1996. For most of the early 1990s Mark was living in Utah coaching at BYU - that's pretty far removed from Foxcatcher - watching the movie you sure don't get that impression. If you are interested in what actually happened watch one of the documentaries - Mark Schultz had very little involvement with DuPont from 1988 on.1 point

Cutting from 9 to 3 scholarships, but the worst part of all is: They will not allow any wrestler that is on scholarship to compete. In essence going from 9 to zero scholarships for their actual wrestlers.1 point

Cougar Clash from what I can gather is going to be as of now. Northern Colorado Missouri Illinois Minnesota Northern Illinois SIU-Edwardsville Little Rock Army West Point was here last year and they wrestle in St. Louis the night before vs. Iowa. So it is possible they will be here as it is a 30 minute drive to SIU-Edwardsville from where they are wrestling. Little Rock duals Central Michigan the day after the Cougar Clash and since they will have already wrestled Mizzou and SIU-E at the Tiger Style Invite. Plus they dual Mizzou two weeks after the Clas. I think they might bring a backup and true Freshman. But they could bring starters since it is only an 8 hour drive to Mt. Pleasant, MI and Edwardsville and Mt. Pleasant have International Airports within 45 minutes of each other. They might wrestle both. Eirsman has been known to wrestle anyone, anytime.1 point

They literally changed her answer to a better one. That’s beyond reprehensible. They’re consciously lying to American undecided voters to get them to vote for the team they support. The free press is dead. It is beyond election interference. It’s straight up a propaganda engine. We complain about let’s say china or North Korea or Iran etc. are we better than them????? ooooh. Also. Those 51 intelligence agents are on your front porch……. Go answer the door.1 point

Thanks for pulling this together. What would you put the O/U on Illini AAs at right now? Maybe 3.5? I'm looking forward to seeing Byrd back on the mat and hopefully his tall queen Ellie matside.1 point

Word. I teach high school, and when the little shits get me down my wife always reminds me, "They might be assholes, but there not fully formed assholes." I hope that is the case with AF. However, I get the sense that they're gonna need a team of CBT specialists, two on-call life coaches, a couple of emotional support pugs, a priest, and a medium to get in touch with Lacan and Freud as needed.1 point

No the worst case is the program gets dropped, and sincee there is no way of turning in any real results as a team, its best if the admins at least think you have a bunch of pleasant guys who make grades and stay out of trouble. They're pretty close to the floor but it doesn't change the fact that if they are bringing in guys who make building culture impossible you are at best robbing peter to pay paul.1 point

the way jones coaches has a ceiling. for the most part they recruit athletic guys, and turn them into snakey type guys with overtie shrugs and shots from space that they are way too patient with. I assume the philosophy is something like "we should be coaching at the same tactical level as a world title match", but that means you think of every match as a chess match, limiting action and therefore development, and neglecting the physicality which is more inherent to folk than free.1 point

NONCONFERENCE SCHEDULE SOUTHERN ILLINOIS Wrestlestat.com is calling for a 34-0 win for the ILLINI. There will be some interesting matchups in the dual, but the final outcome is not in doubt. #29 Jason Kraisser versus #63 Brock Woodcock at 157 is intriguing. Woodcock is a real good wrestler, and was a 3x Missouri state champ. He was 3-1 against ILLINI wrestlers last year as a Freshman with wins over Joe Roberts, Logan Swaw and Jake Recin. His loss was to an uninjured Joe Roberts. At 165, Braeden Scoles takes on #138 Bradley Gillum, an ILLINOIS schoolboy who's fun to watch. The same goes for Zac Braunagel versus #75 Nick Nosler, another ILLINOIS schoolboy we all enjoyed watching at National Duals. #51 Deron Pulliam doesn't exactly represent a threat to Edmond Ruth at 184, but it will be a nice early test for RUTHLESS to see how he does against a strong, completely filled-out 184lber. Last season, this was a 28-7 win for the O&B under the lights and on stage. Hopefully, the Cougars have something special planned as well. Finally, watch out for assistant coach Daryl Thomas of SIUE, as he will steadily improve this team. Former ILLINI. Outstanding wrestler. Great recruiter. JOURNEYMEN DUALS (ASU & Binghamton) Some of the matchups to look forward to in the Arizona State dual include Kannon Webster versus Kaleb Larkin, Luke Luffman against Cohlton Schultz, and Lucas Byrd vs. Julian Chlebove. Wrestlestat.com is calling for an 18-17 ILLINI victory. In an earlier post, we had Bloomsburg as the opponent in this match. That was gleaned from the Wrestlestat.com site, and it has been changed to Binghamton. It will be an easy win for the Orange and Blue, but there will be a couple of good matches. The Wrestlestat algorithm has #10 Cory Day beating Luke Luffman. Day made it to the Round of 16 last year with a surprise pin of Cornell's Lewis Fernandez. He is a pinner, but he also loses to folks that Luke has whupped. Avoid the pin, and Luke'll win! Additionally, at 165, the Binghamton Bearcats have #15 Brevin Cassella. We expect Braeden Scoles to beat him. In fact, we are predicting 10 spladles in the match for the ILLINI. JOURNEYMEN COLLEGIATE CLASSIC This is new on the schedule for the ILLINI. We've heard about other teams participating in this event, and from what we understand, in the past, it is an individual tournament with lots of round robins among the wrestlers at a given weight. The other big name besides ILLINOIS is Cornell. Pennsylvania is always tough as well. Army can be tough at various weights. The same for Lock Haven. The rest are probably tech falls for the good guys. Here are the teams currently listed as participants in the classic: #8 Cornell #13 ILLINOIS #22 Penn #24 Army (unofficial) #45 Lock Haven #75 Franklin & Marshall #76 Sacred Heart Teams have sent their Freshmen and non-starters in the past, Penn sent 24 wrestlers last year. PSU sent a bunch as well. Also in the past, the Classic has used a very funky format that puts a certain number of wrestlers at a weight--usually from four to six--in up to five different "pools." The wrestlers in the pools do a round robin. The pools seem to have been divided by ranking, experience, ability and whether they are starters. For example, Danny Pucino might be put in Pool A, while Will Baysingar and Hudson Goebel are placed in Pool B. As the newby, Olin Walker would get to test himself against wrestlers in Pool C or D. Assuming the likely ILLINOIS starters get placed in Pool A, these are the matchups we might get to see: #21 RAMAZAN ATTASAUOV vs. #8 Greg Diakomiholis (Cornell); #18 Max Gallagher (Penn); #2 Anthony Noto (Lockhaven) #7 LUCAS BYRD vs. #14 Brett Ungar (Cornell); #28 Ryan Miller (Penn); #34 Gable Strickland (Lockhaven) #37 DANNY PUCINO vs. #15 Vince Cornella (Cornell); #14 CJ Composto (Penn); #12 Wyatt Henson (Lockhaven) #9 KANNON WEBSTER vs. #14 Ethan Fernandez (Cornell); #31 Kelly Dunnigan (Penn); #41 Nick Stonecheck (Lockhaven) #29 JASON KRAISSER vs. #1 Meyer Shapiro (Cornell); #20 Jude Swisher (Penn); #35 Nick Stampoulos (Lockhaven) #50 BRAEDEN SCOLES vs. #5 Julian Ramirez (Cornell); #57 Kaya Sement (Penn); #71 Caden Dobbins (Lockhaven) #13 DANNY BRAUNAGEL vs. #180 Simon Ruiz (Cornell); #10 Nick Incontrera (Penn); #66 Tyler Stoltzfus (Lockhaven) #5 EDMOND RUTH vs. #7 Chris Foca (Cornell); #31 Maximus Hale (Penn); #57 Colin Fegley (Lockhaven) #9 ZAC BRAUNAGEL vs. #147 Mikey Dellagatta (Cornell); #36 Martin Cosgrove (Penn); #147 Tucker Hogan (Lockhaven) #16 LUKE LUFFMAN vs. #36 Ashton Davis (Cornell); #113 Matt Cruise (Penn); #114 Ethan Miller (Lockhaven) As you can see, a lot of great matchups! Looks like Danny Pucino will have a tough pool, especially if Will Baysingar and Hudson Goebel are in it! Ramazan Attasauov may have the toughest. Simon Ruiz and Mikey Dellagatta of Cornell will be better than those rankings, as they just haven't been in the Big Red lineup. Edmond Ruth is 0-2 against Chris Foca, but that was a long time ago. The ILLINI will crown a number of champions at the Classic! MISSOURI This was a 6-29 loss for the good guys last year. It was a great show, but a bit of a disaster result. It'll be different this year, as the algorithm calls for a 16-16 tie. There are explosive matchups up and down the card. Who wants to see Zac Braunagel versus Rocky Elam? Sign us up! We remember Danny Braunagel wrestling a completely even match with #1 Keegan O'Toole at the Tiger Style Invite two years ago. O'Toole got the fall late in the third period, but not before he had a little fear put into his heart. Finally, think back to 2019, specifically November 14 of that year, as true Freshman Luke Luffman toed the line in the dual against Mizzou with the team win hanging in the balance. LUUUUKE came away with the late 9-7 win in his match as the ILLINOIS bench erupted! We could see that take place again, as he'll have #25 Seth Nitzel. NORTH CAROLINA The ILLINI will have a return match, presumably in the Tar Heel State, against UNC. It will take place on November 25, just three days before Thanksgiving. You might recall that last year's matchup in Champaign ended with a 20-13 triumph, and an early look at three young faces, Kannon Webster, Braeden Scoles and Chris Moore, with each picking up a win. There were additional victories from Edmond Ruth, Tony Madrigal and Luke Luffman. Also, AOC was awarded his National Championship ring during intermission. [EDITOR'S NOTE: There will be folks from ILLINOIS who show up for this match, then go out to eat afterwards. You might think BBQ is a great option. Think again! Most North Carolina BBQ uses a kind of baby diaper mustard sauce. Before ordering, ask them if they have an alternative.] There will be some fireworks against the Tar Heels despite Wrestlestat.com looking for a 26-6 win for the good guys. The matchups to watch are Kannon Webster against Lachlan McNeil, Edmond Ruth versus Gavin Kane, and Danny Brawlnagel up against Josh Ogunsanya, the ILLINOIS kid who transferred into UNC from Columbia. COUGAR CLASH Last year, the Cougar Clash was an individual tournament that had about 14 or 15 wrestlers in each bracket. Many teams brought their entire lineups. For example, Minnesota fielded four wrestlers at 197. So, this can be another way to see a lot of the ILLINI lineup in one place! It will also be a great place and time for the ILLINI to settle any lineup questions. Ruth versus Connell? Pucino versus Baysingar/Goebel? 157? We want to see Braunagel and Pettigrew throw down. Don't you? Northern Colorado, SIUE and ILLINOIS are the only teams listed at this time, but expect more to come later. The best wrestlers for Northern Colorado are #12 Stevo Poulin at 125, #22 Dominick Serrano at 133 (Lucas majored him already), #3 Andrew Alirez at 141, #15 Vince Zerban at 157 and #33 Clayton Ulrey at 165. The rest of the Bears are ranked in the hundreds. You have to think there's a holiday tournament, almost certainly the Midlands, missing from the schedule so far.1 point

The fact that they are terrible at wrestling doesn't mean the locker room can't get a lot more toxic. Particularly since building culture gets real difficult if you can't hold the only talent on the team to the rules that need to be imposed on everyone else.1 point
