After a careful review, going to go hard on the under as to PD3 making a good point (ever about anything). He's about as sharp as a bowling ball. As to Snyderman, feel bad generally for the situation and hope he and his family can heal. Feel bad generally that prostitution operations are out there in America. Weakening the social safety net will only make it worse in my opinion. Finally, I remain skeptical that wrestlers professing their profound religious convinctions as part of their training formula are particularly more virtuous and ethical in their everday lives and communities than others that do not make such professions.

at the time when the Moscow Olympics were boycotted, I thought mean Gene could beat anyone and perhaps by fall But it was not a studied understanding - just my impression and way before there was so much data to review

I think it is relevant - tangentially. If Ono was moslem and speaking out ("Ruckus") for Palestinan rights, it might lead to immediate exit.

I read into the concept of "crushed" the net yield and roster impact. PSU got two wrold medalists and hard to see any crushing blow the roster.

its a rough sport and Latona hit rocky ground - I take your point as to his career and potential

Did anyone hear he is looking at Penn State?

Seems like Valencia has been on the way up and it may be his time. Not sure about Dake's anti-aging strategies. Should be a good test for both!

I am skeptical that one flavor of religious belief, background, or tradtion provides an edge in competitive athletics.

I think the PRTC guys in action at the senior level this weekend are Zapf and Jay Aiello? Have not checked for others. Joey is traning in Oklahoma now so not counting him as PRTC for htis one.

I'm no expert, but doubt this is useful to many at all. Maybe to anyone over the HWT limit jsut trying to get down - doubt that is many at all.

Mendez is excellent - but not unbeatable. Also, the way seedings work, it is not crazy that soneone could win NCAA;s without beating Mendez. Don't think anyone was saying Stanich is the favorate or even likely NCAA finalist. We will see. Guys keep wrestling and developing and get some new tricks and strategies. Anything can happen!

Had forgotten about him. He could be a contender at 141.

Team USA looks pretty good - not sure Garvin took the best strategy into his match.

So RBY, Fix, and McKenna at the RTC - would they be able to work with the lower weight of the collegiate team? https://static.okstate.com/custompages/crtc/team.html Also Khayitov Mirzo is listed - don't know him.

Yes - the sport has some areas where there is room for improvement. Long time in the gym waiitng for ver short time on the mat in youth wreslting can be a problem too. Kids want to have fun and waiting inh a gym is not much fun.
