Carter Starocci faces allegations of sexual assault and theft

Somebody who doesn't think their teammate is a thieving pile of trash I guess. -
Carter Starocci faces allegations of sexual assault and theft
JimmyCinnabon replied to VakAttack's topic in College Wrestling
I am done. As a PSU alum and massive PSU wrestling fan I am finished with PSU wrestling. How many times is Penn State going to go through this before a coach learns? I doubt you'll see me around here much longer since I have no interest in rooting for another program and I won't be watching PSU wrestling anymore. I really have no words to describe just how braindead these people are. -
You were certainly a late bloomer then. I am a late bloomer in almost everything except biology. I hit puberty when I was 11 years old, the summer before I went to middle school.

Why are people so upset about someone spending an extra year in school? I really don't get how upset people are over this. People are losing their minds.

Yeah I don’t care how old Bo is or why. States are very different. You are correct. My brother is 15 months older than me. He was two grades ahead of me. My college girlfriend was 14 months younger than me and graduated the same year I did. She is from New Jersey while I am from Pennsylvania.

Are you from New Jersey by chance? Those ages seem young in comparison to Pennsylvania. I turned 18 about a month and a half into my senior year of high school. I had a few kids in my grade older than me. Everyone I was friends with turned 18 during our senior year of high school with one exception, a friend of mine turned 18 in August right before the school year started. None of us were ever held back or anything. When I went to college I found that people from NJ were about a full year younger than people I graduated high school with. I know that when I was in high school (1995-1999) you could be up to like 21 years old and play high school sports. There was a kid who went to Greensburg Salem (where Greg Jones went to high school) a few grades ahead of me that was held back a bunch of times but still played on their soccer team. I know he was 20-21 years old because everyone gossiped about it because he was quickly running out of eligibility.

People generally prefer the term that applies, not one that means the literal opposite.

The 3-Point Takedown: Friend or Foe?
JimmyCinnabon replied to Wrestleknownothing's topic in College Wrestling
This is a very interesting take. As a counterpoint do we think maybe guys take less risks as in they don't take any shots until the last minute of the third period if we do this? Maybe the 1.5 isn't enough incentive for guys to take a risk on generating offense and shooting? What about a 1-pt push out rule, but you can only be awarded a push out point in the last 30 seconds of a period? This way if someone is up 4-2 in the third and they run they risk being pushed out for an easy point multiple times. I honestly don't have a solution for this, I am just spitballing. This topic has been talked about for so long and they obviously thought they needed to address it by making a TD 3-pts but at this point maybe that wasn't the solution either. -
Penn State, Ohio State - sex abuse problems

Well that makes one of us! -
Could Spencer salvage the Bassetts?

None at this point. -

Well I tried. -
So what? Pat Mineo - if you're reading this please block me.

You are giving Spencer Lee way too much credit. -
I've been reading people here talking about Spencer being a great scrambler as well thinking, "what guy did they watch?" I think Spencer Lee is an unbelievable talent, but he was very meat and potatoes as far as wrestling goes. I can say the same about Zain Retherford. They dominated guys but I don't think about scrambling ability when I think about them. Spencer Lee had amazing fundamentals paired with insane grip strength that allowed him to dominate guys. Spencer definitely had a crack in his amor though and if you could exploit it you could beat him.

After reading everything the last few days I also think Tom Brands did the right thing.

I’m going to give you some free advice because I have been where you are. I’m a PSU alum. They made documentaries about my school too. This is not the way. Even if you think you’re right nobody else will. Your school is being dragged through the mud (rightfully so). It sucks. But this isn’t the way. Don’t defend what happened on the internet. -

30 teams? Sounds like a Royal Rumble to me. Get one coach from 30 teams and the winner of the Rumble gets Bo!

Remember like forever ago (last week) when Iowa fans were once again touting the downfall of the PSU wrestling program after the Bartlett stuff came out? They had like pages and pages on the cesspool and now it looks like their program is collapsing into oblivion instead. Meanwhile PSU may end up with Bassett. It's been a wild offseason, like always.
-
Someone is reporting that Tom Brands called up Mrs. Bassett and yelled at her. I won't say who is spreading this rumor but it is definitely Pat Mineo. Take it with a grain of salt because he probably read it on a message board himself.

I think this is covered in the NEW New Testament. I believe it's in Sanderson 12:10-3,4. Though shall not forsake FUN for FUN is the life breath of wrestling. Do not follow your path of greatness to the twin devils, work with your brothers at home. I don't know, some sh*t like that.

You can win 5 national championships by being a hyper religious narcissist at Penn State!

The reason I am predicting him to Okie State is because PSU has such a log jam at most weights but I didn't think about him going 149lbs after Van Ness leaves. That could certainly open up a possibility. Also - I did not know that Melvin Miller was his brother. A matter of fact this past week is the first I am really even hearing any hype about Melvin Miller. Are they blood related?
