  1. Call it a bit...it could legit happen unless I missed news that Gable was definitely not wrestling NCAAs this upcoming season.
  2. Can you imagine if Iowa trots out AJ at 197 and Gable at 285? I think that would actually push them to #1 over Penn State.
  3. AJ is a NCAA champ and has bulked up considerably while Cassioppi has lost weight (and lost more matches). I'll take AJ with Cassioppi probably transferring out.
  4. I feel so bad for Tony Cassioppi. What a rollercoaster of thinking your college career is over due to NCAA suspension, only to be reinstated, only to be supplanted by another Italian Stallion.
  5. Yes I'm aware, but I'm still slotting them in this hypothetical at 184,
  6. Entrants: Bo Nickal (4x NCAA finalist, 3x NCAA champ, Hodge winner) Ed Ruth (4x AA, 3x NCAA champ) Aaron Brooks (3x NCAA champ, potentially a 4x NCAA champ) Quentin Wright (4x AA, 3x NCAA finalist, 2x NCAA champ) How does this shake out in a round robin format? Bonus: how does Cael do if allowed at catchweight?
  7. Why is this so important to Trump's endorsement of Jim Jordan for Speaker of the House? "So much is learned from sports, and Jim was a master! While attending Graham High School, he won State Championships all four years, a rarity, and compiled an amazing 156-1 record. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Jim became a two-time NCAA Division I Wrestling Champion. He won his 1985-86 Championship Matches in his weight class."
  8. Yes, RBY improved since then. So has Gomez. Doesn't take away from the fact that Gomez was one of the few people skilled enough to beat RBY.
  9. How many people have beaten RBY in college? Beating a 2x NCAA champ means Gomez has a certain level of skill...doesn't matter that it happened a few seasons ago.
  10. With this development + the potential dropping of Iowa suspensions there is a real race for the team title this upcoming season. I still favor Penn State (as I'm a PSU homer) but I think Iowa and Michigan will be nipping at their heels. If Iowa can find a way to squeeze those 5 or 6 transfers into their lineup they will be all the better for it!
  11. Gomez pinned RBY. He's a title contender and very dangerous.
  12. Yes, I'm very against gambling as a moral matter.
  13. We already have that...it's called the NCAA finals.
  14. It's hard to follow your train of thought when you keep moving the goalposts.
  15. So you now contend they lacked the requisite authority to impose punishments? That's very different from complaining that the punishments were overly harsh. And the NCAA reducing the severity of any imposed punishments =/= an admission that they lacked the authority to punish in the first place.
  16. Ok, so your beef is that the NCAA has the ability to punish athletes for conduct that is not criminal? If so, you're basically railing against the entire NCAA system as they've always had a regime that is considerably more restrictive than what is allowed by criminal law.
  17. Is Robb coming back? I thought he almost died from his infection.
  18. Yes, do we really need to go into how an athlete placing bets on his own team (or another team at his school) where he could (a) have insider information or (b) influence on the outcome of the game could potentially cause (1) monetary losses to other bettors, (2) affect the outcome of the game or (3) affect the integrity of the athletics program as whole?
  19. Actually, I am hearing now that all the Iowa wrestlers will be back and not face any suspension. So it looks like my "nothingburger" prediction may ultimately be 100% correct. I wonder if any of the transferees will want another free transfer home since they now have to battle for a spot they thought they had locked up...
