I was referring to his view that countries (Syria, Lebanon) are refusing to take refugees for fear that Hamas would start working with in those camps and would be come targets for Israeli air strikes.  Different from your take. My bad. 

I read his comment. I think myself and Uncle B are pretty much on the same page on that issue.  But Iran not being discussed in this conversation is a real failure in understanding the current situation.  The latest figures reported (estimated) was $300 million from Iran to Hamas.  The idea that peace would come if Israel just packed up and left is nonsensical.  Iran is hellbent on creating as much chaos and conflict in the region.  Currently the Ayatollah is the root of the problem

yeah but there’s no scenario where the us wouldn’t support israel and defend it against destruction. it’s a nonsensical scenario. 

the question is how the us can help them secure a sustainable peace. you guys think endless war which hasn’t worked for 75 years. i think there’s another way. 

Kudos to you for taking on all posters.  Here is the big piece of the puzzle you and this board are not addressing.  This is a Chess match between the US/Israel vs Iran.  Palestine is a pawn on the board.  Despite some grandstanding you might see from these nations the truth is the Saudi's, Jordan, & Egypt are also siding with the US & Israel.  Palestine's peace will only come with it's divorce from Iran.  Look into Jordan and Egypt's refusal to take in any Palestinian refugees.  There's a real fear militants would set up shop in their countries launching attacks on Israel from within their own countries causing more chaos.  If Israel capitulates Iran will now know that it's blueprint to set up proxies and cause chaos is the recipe for success

While this is true.. don't use it as a cop out if the fact Dake without a doubt had a mental edge

How is what I said a cop out?  Seems like you're just trying to start a a fight

Taylor's losses were in the ultra nitty gritty side of the mental. If you had to put a word on why dake never lost to him, it's "present". Dake could jump on the half second per match taylor was relaxed. Taylor being so dominant probably contributed to this problem, like spencer lee but not nearly as bad, he was just not that inexperienced in a chess match and dake wasn't.

Dake also had the ability to pull off wrestling positions that you'd teach every other kid not to do because it's fundamentally wrong.  There are things Dake did back in college that defied the laws of wrestling physics

Exciting to see these names announced and confirms the insider info @Husker_Du and Basch received was accurate. 

I'm curious to see who the big guy coach is going to be. Any leaks out there?

Just a guess but I'd put money on Gwiz

How does this look at Beaver Stadium?

125 - Spratley VS Lilledahl (Davis)
133 - Cannon (Hughes) VS Nagao (Davis)
141 - Jamison VS Bartlett (Evans)
149 - Alirez VS SVN (Kasak/Evans)
157 - Parco VS Sealey (SVN)
165 - Fish VS Mesenbrink
174 - Hamiti VS Facundo
184 - Plott VS Barr
197 - Carroll VS Starocci
285 - Pindrickson VS Kerkvliet
*BOLD INDICATES TRANSFER

Is it wild or recency bias that makes me believe that is an actual dual?  Does this make Coach Caelingharner keep Haines down at 157 and Starocci at 174 as a precautionary?

Everything that's been projected for '24-25  to this point is Mesenbrink to 157 and Haines to 165.  Star to 184 or 197.  @Husker_Du might have some insider info but this scenario has been the most consistent

Would love for Omar to lose, but doesn’t seem likely.

Omar will have a tough primary against Don Samuels

Fun fact: David Taylor is Stiebers lone loss in high school as a freshman (DT was a soph).

Also, this isn't the "other OSU" but THE OSU. Don't believe it? Look at the .edu email addresses for all of the supposed "OSU" schools:

Oklahoma State: @okstate.edu

Oregon State: @oregonstate.edu

Ohio State: @osu.edu

I arrest my case. 

How does one arrest their own case? @VakAttack???

Parco is a great wrestler but he’s not in the KOT beating David Carr realm. He’s not a U20 world champion running into another U20 champ.

You should never take what Ionel says seriosuly.  Don't fall into the quicksand

Wasn't Carr once 2-0 against KOT? 

Yeah but neither KOT nor Carr have ever beaten SVN.  and Parco is 0-2 vs Shayne

But Cornell?  Dake can only survive so long in State College, he will soon have to migrate back north.  

Cornell...42.4522...But Dake is the King at beating Taylor at his own game.  He'll beat Taylor in coaching wearing blue and white

But think if it was Iowa, although Dake prob can't live in a southern state below 42 degrees. 

State College is at a latitude of 40.79339.  Iowa City is 41.67.  

@nhs67 I would love to start a, "Wouldn't it be ironic if Kyle Dake becomes the next HC for the Nittany Lions" but out of respect for you I'll post it here.  But, Jimmy might steal it

I think its just the m2 ties I think Ryder is the only guy that may go personally and maybe Duke or Perry flip but thats about it and I don't have high confidence in any of those things.

This.  Have been on the record Ryder might go with the log jam at PSU and PJ Duke wouldn't surprise me either.  Everyone else either than Facundo is staying

165: Haines or Kasak

What'a up with the Haines Kasak rumors?  They're PA kids who are already on the roster and will start.  Their family is within a mornings drive to campus.  You fellas are getting a little crazy

5 minutes ago, CowboyYe2024 said:

Really?? SVN is a great wrestler, but Parco training at OSU with the magic man as hc. Give me Parco. It could go either way.

That's wishful thinking.  Both SVN and Kasak beat Parco.  Parco has a ceiling.  Hamiti on the other hand is a wrestler every Okie State fan should be excited to watch with DT at the helm.  He definitely hasn't reached his full potential

4 minutes ago, CowboyYe2024 said:

OSU 141 if Alirez Comes, 149 if Parco comes, 174, 184 (If Carter goes 184), 197

PSU 125, 133, 141 if Alirez isn't a Cowboy, 149, 157, 165, 285

5-5 maybe 4-6 3-7. Depending on where Starocci goes, IT IS NOT GOING TO BE 10-0 PENN STATE DIPSHIT!!!!!!!! 

 

 

Parco is not beating SVN 

Ryder and Facundo are the only studs currently on the roster that I could eventually see transfer to the Cowboys

Why would a NY kid and 2 AWA kids go to OK state after comitting to PSU?

not supporting the theory but because taylor is still a workout parnter

Ryder is a M2 kid.  I don't think it's crazy to think he'd go with Taylor and company  considering the log jam of middle weights at PSU
