Have you ever seen Jimmy and Mineo in the same room together?
I haven't

Have you ever been to a high school dual between rivals? An NCAA border brawl between rivals? Watched a national Duals final that came down to Mocco vs Konrad with Konrad getting the pin for the title?
Yes. From Pennsylvania. Have been to and been involved in these types of duals. But wrestling is still not a team sport. And in these rivalry duals people show up for specific matches moreso than final team score

Never been to a BBQ among friends who are golf fanatics that cared about the Ryder Cup. Not once have any of my wrestling buddies been devastated by the results of the Wrestling World Cup. Does tennis have a team category?
I get it. Universities are involved so we need to crown a team but at the end of the day it's an individual sport. I know we cant but I'd rather a format where we removed this false idea that a team is actually competing

yes .. there were no Jews before Adam & Eve ... at least that I recall
There was. Homo Homer and Homo Marge were the first two of the Judiac church of Homo Erectus

That ain't Jesus. You do recognize the difference between the Sermon on the Mount and the distruction of Jericho and all the innocent women and children living there, too.
Edit: wrestling is older than Judaism.
Calm down Jeremiah

BTW has it ever come out officially that the Larry Lee texts were fake? A couple weeks ago, Flo said something to the effect that the Larry Lee recruiting story was a fabrication.
No idea. I try my best to ignore Mineo's shenanigans. Only got invested in the Mineo Nagao to Iowa trolling when @Jimmy Cinnabon started posting that garbage on this forum.

What has Mineo’s response to being wrong here been? Did he simply admit he was wrong? Did he say “well I only said it ‘looks like’ Iowa”? Or did he do the “I knew it was gonna be PSU all along and I was just messing with people” thing?
Posted he was messing with Iowa fans all along and posted pictures from early April of texts he had showing Aaron to PSU all along.

Ah. I see we've gone full HR/GIA this morning with a PED reference.
Well played.
17 minutes ago, Interviewed_at_Weehawken said:What PED reference? Certainly there is a reason why Taylor, Nickal, and other choose to train under the guidance of a California based math teacher instead of their own resident genius. Coach Cal is just that darned good. Send "MM" to Cali !
NLWC has been very open about juicing their athletes. It's not like they hide it. Kendra Taylor even has her own website

Most of us are going to watch anyway, but there have been other years where the team title was actually still in doubt after the quarters.
The adjusted scoring record?
If Robbie Howard is healthy as @PortaJohn pointed out. Also, does Messenbrink and Haines wrestle next year?
Does Haines get knocked out of the starting lineup? LOL...that's...actually possible at this point.
I believe returning points including Robbie Howards from a few years ago is 140 plus

I miss the days where guys transferred to ASU because the girls were hotter.
Lived in Tempe post college. Can confirm. Hands down the hottest but oddly enough after some time I began to consider personality as an attractive attribute.

Penn State will be amazing.
I like how Nagao talks about how he has become a better man for going through with this process and how it was all about God. "God" is how he justifies breaking his commitment to Minnesota. Breaking his commitment and searching for the best offer made him a better man.
I am fairly religious, but I would prefer him to be honest with us, and probably himself. "I had a good year. I am a hot commodity. Minnesota is really cold. I am going to leave for a better team, a better training situation, better coaches, slightly better weather, and a bag of cash. Don't hate!"
He did say Minny understands that ultimately wrestling is a selfish sport @10:20

Or Cannon makes the drop to 125.
Who knows at this point. That would be crazy if they snag him too and suck him down to 125. But to Rutgers I believe he'll go

They have to break the scoring record now I would imagine.
Possible if Robbie Howard can stay healthy

Special thanks to @Jimmy Cinnabon and Pat Mineo

For the record, was it TBar or Tbar?
MSU accused me of being Tbar once. And when I replied I was not TBar, he suspected me even more. Said that was exactly what TBar would do.
He has accused a few other posters since, so I think I'm off the hook
MSU is a grouchy old feller

Thought about this conversation when I ended up on BWI today scouring for Nagao news and got these two gems randomly:
https://pennstate.forums.rivals.com/threads/transfer-portal.291745/page-69
which included, in reference to Nagao wrestling with Spencer if he chooses Iowa: "The faux GOAT don't roll like that." and "Like some young upstart is going to be allowed to touch Lord Spencer in live wrestling at practice."
I think you're underestimating the things said about Spencer.
To be fair wasn't it Drake Ayala's mom that started that rumor

With only Mineo's unverified claim how do you guys see tonight going? Nagao trending Iowa or does PSU still have a chance.
See @Jimmy Cinnabon...That's how you do it

Always a dangerous game. Mineo being the loser that he is.
Another poster on HR, gobblin, described it thusly "the information on this is a shitshow."
Exactly. And from Gobblin himself. That says a lot. No one knows right now except for the coaching staffs, Aaron, and a few insiders keeping their mouths shut. Jimmy could've of easily posted "Does Aaron....?".

Check out vhsalum's posts on HR.
Vshalum said "I think" and Mineo said "looks like"...that's what your basing your prediction on? Hey. I think it's 50/50. You might be right. But don't come on here and make claims when you have no actual solid concrete insider info

There are many HR posters who also believe Nagao is locked up for Iowa. It's far more than me and Mineo who believe Nagao is a Hawkeye.
Nope. They're all working off of Mineos tweet

Justin Basch is a fan first, business man second, and a PSU podcast third.
He has more non-PSU clientele than he does PSU clientele. He is pretty open about Johnny D, who isn't a PSU guy, being his favorite person alive.
Thanks for clearing that up Justin but why are you pretending to be a Michigan fan on this forum?

I wonder how the forum is going to react to the decision, hopefully people don't assault each other
As a PSU fan I hope he chooses where he feels most comfortable. I will find it amusing if he picks Iowa on a PSU podcast.

Why do we care about the team Championship?

In horse racing they announce the horses name when they declare the winner. Ponder that
