    Zach Edey from Purdue. National player of the year 2x and is unable to get NIL monday

    I say him talking about his shaft is more indicative of him not coming back than his weight class for OTT.
  3. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    I can’t imagine any program being willing to drop to d2, probably not a great look for a school.

    After more digging, Buffalo currently sponsors 6 men’s sports and 8 women’s sports. This is the exact minimum of men’s teams a university can have to be considered D1. “Division 1 schools must sponsor seven men's and seven women's sports at a minimum, or six men's sports and eight women's sports at a minimum.” Buffalo is trapped with wrestling, unless they want to add another men’s sport to cut wrestling or drop to d2 or whatever that process would look like.

    Why do we think this when they posted the job, mentioned a new hire being announced, and mentioned looking towards the future?
  6. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Also, they are saying they will announce the new coach in the coming weeks. Hopefully the AD and Stutzman didn’t get along, and not the AD hates wrestling.

    “I do feel that the future is going to be very bright for our wrestling program,” he (AD) said. Hopefully they’re not looking for an excuse to cut it, but an excuse to better the program.

    But let’s name him, just for those who may not know who you mean…not me of course, I know “he who shall not be named” but the others.

    Seems more like a changing of guards rather than anything else in my opinion. I assume asu will continue to have an RTC, like every other college program. Maybe I’m wrong though. https://thesundevils.com/documents/2024/2/20/After_winning_over_100_World_and_Olympic_Medals__Sunkist_KIds_Wrestling_Club_Closing_After_Four_Decades.pdf

    Florida, GA, Texas (adding one currently) all need a school the recognizes that they are “good” Hs wrestling states and can have success and attract in state talent. hopefully we see a day where all states have a D1 team, but those three are a good start.

    I don’t get how we can’t get a full 10 weights, they’re already doing the event, paying for venue, promotion(?), mats, referees, TV/streaming, etc. the cost of adding weights is much less than the cost of adding a new sport or whatever’s
  12. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    To break the mold on this thread, besides his name, I don’t know much about him. he sounds pretty good though, I don’t know how good though
  13. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Never
  14. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Idk what half this means, it is ridiculously stupid, like you said, not sure how that differs from “terrible”
  15. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    This was horrible, I don’t generally mind Adam Sandler but wtf is he doing singing about some dudes ears.
  16. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    I hadn’t heard of this, seems like old news, but still love to hear it! https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/college/wrestling/2023/02/01/felician-university-to-add-mens-and-womens-wrestling-in-2024/69855955007/

    What an idiotic and pessimistic post, schools are adding wrestling, albeit at smaller schools, at a good rate. Be positive brotha!
  18. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Solid house tbh
  19. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    I’m biased, but they can remove 2 men rowing teams, a women’s rowing team, men+ women’s water polo, and women’s bowling before they start to look at wrestling.
  20. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Yeah idk why people say this. Askren is a goof but he seems like a good dude. Based on what I’ve seen on FRL and YouTube, at least.
  21. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    I’d buy a shirt, at a minimum and root for them in all matches except against Purdue.
  22. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    Holy shit if Askren goes to Wisconsin I’ll become the biggest fan overnight.
  23. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    I know so little about them but my gut feel has been cornell for some reason.
  24. FanOfPurdueWrestling
    If you wanna tweet something stupid, you wouldn’t be the first. But to constantly double down is so stupid, I was surprised they were willing to go in this podcast (which is huge) to basically explain how stupid they are and that they didn’t learn anything from this experience.

    I believe the most recent numbers show over 300k at the hs level. Growth happened but almost solely due to women’s participation growing so rapidly and drastically.
