  1. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/31/florida-house-parental-rights-bill-pronouns-lgbtq-00089971 I have pointed this out to you a couple of different times, but they are already working on expanding that to K-8. Then it will be K-12. It's all been a stepping stone, shifting the Overton window on this subject. "Oh it's just K-3, of course this is ok..." and already, here we are expanding it.
  2. Yes, but you have to use a veterinary student.
  3. I'm making my assessment of Sealey based off of my watching of him, but I admit my sample size on the high school kids is limited.
  4. I don't care if he's doing whatever he wants with his site. I just think it's hilarious given that his fans (and he) were screaming about the previous regime doing the same thing. I agree: it's a private company, he is the owner, he can set the terms of use.
  5. Yes. Get your money, BernDawg.
  6. @Husker_Du has semi-backed him up on this one on Twitter, so maybe this one is accurate, but the guy is still a moron.
  7. CAN WE PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT AJ FERRARI GOING TO IOWA I'M BREAKING OUT IN HIVES!
  8. Middlemen went to prison. Regular folk like us. Not the big guys who are actually spending the money.
  9. I think that people paying money for NIL purposes would want those athletes at the highest profile places to get the most visibility.
  10. Follow up: the.make up is going VERY slowly as Elon is posting screenshots of their Signal chats now, lol. https://www.theverge.com/2023/4/10/23678105/elon-musk-substack-notes-battle-matt-taibbi?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=news_tab
  11. I'm not truly an insider, so I would say no based on the fact Iowa wasn't mentioned in his top 7.
  12. I dunno. I'm certainly not a ranker. To my eye, I think Ferrari and Sealey are the best guys in the year, but that's all gut feeling.
  13. I think he's taken a couple of losses recently, so I'm not sure if he will, in fact, be the #1 overall recruit, but either way, very high level kid.
  14. So the suppression of the speech by private entity Twitter (which legally I have no problem with though morally I would quibble with) is ok and good, or overlooked because it MAY have gone back to "normal"? Isn't Elon's whole thing "free speech absolutism"? Because....well this only the latest example of it not actually being his thing, only speech that he agrees with and/or serves his financial interests. Also, I see no evidence of a make up, Taibbi's most recent comment as to attempt to disprove Elon's claim that he is an employee of Substack.
  15. https://www.nationalreview.com/news/elon-musk-lashes-out-at-former-ally-matt-taibbi-in-growing-feud/ https://reason.com/2023/04/10/elon-musk-matt-taibbi-twitter-substack/ So much better.
  16. Nah, I'm just busting @nhs67's balls a bit from last year when he kept insisting Reyna was a threat to take a starting spot. Reyna is a tough kid, but never developed into a high level D1 wrestler.
  17. Somebody might want to look into Bretli Reyna.
  18. I agree that Penn State is the stalking horse in modern NCAA wrestling. I think Iowa can make a strong claim that they would be better for developing Nagao, given their track record at the lower weights, whereas Penn State's "holes" tend to be down this way, but that's a relative term for Penn State, since their big hitters tend to be 165 and up; they still have had RBY and Nick Lee recently, and with regard to RTC talent, you're 100% right, nobody is within a mile of NLWC right now. It was super sweet of Nagao and Basch to run cover on the potential money portion of this, but I refuse to believe that God (if they exist) has an opinion on which school Nagao wrestles for. This is a Nagao decision, and that's fine! I don't begrudge him that, even if he end up at Penn State and I suddenly realize I have always hated him!
  19. While I appreciate that the tone of the thread is now assuming he goes to Iowa, I think it's relatively clear that, as of now, he's a pretty heavy lean to Penn State.
  20. OMG, this whole thing was a terrible abortion analogy? Lol.
  21. Hey @BAC, here's an example! There were a bunch of threads expressing similar sentiments.
  22. ESPN literally said on air that he wasn't in the building, and people were running rampant with that narrative to demolish him, including on these boards. I think your painting of him as a beloved figure outside of Iowa wrestling is not based in reality.
