Not sure how you are equating OKSt coaches knowingly breaking the rules with the Iowa wrestlers betting online. One involves the coaches and wrestlers, the other involves the wrestlers. Not exactly apples to apples.

Pitzer did beat Shultz last year and has put on 20 pounds. Gavin does a good job developing his guys.

According to the Olympic website Lincoln amassed over 300 victories in 12 years. https://olympics.com/en/news/abraham-lincoln-usa-president-wrestling-champion

Feldman will be a factor also. Kueter may also play into this depending on how Iowa decides to handle that situation.

Not triggered at all. Just have different a definition of “lock” than you do. Again, I think Howard has the ceiling to be a high AA but in no universe does his body of work suggest that he is a lock to AA.

It must have been his losses to Barnett, Deaugustino, McKee, Lamont and Heinselman that make you so certain he will be a lock. Or perhaps his current ranking or #19?

How is it not the failure of the administration to feel a building up to code? Why in the world should the coaches be in charge of keeping buildings up to code?

Howard could AA but he’s certainly no lock to.

I think they also got in trouble because redshirt wrestlers had transportation and lodging provided by the team. Seay instructed the wrestlers to lie and not tell the investigators the truth initially and then by the time that they told the truth they had pissed of the NCAA so much that they were made an example of. The punishment didn’t necessarily fit the crime, but they were not honest up front and it cost them. They lost Jaworsky because of this. The guys that had redshirts available (like pat smith) stuck around and used their redshirt. Some guys (like Alan Fried) were super loyal and stuck around despite losing a year of eligibility.

I agree that things were kind of a mess when Eggum inherited. We are going into year 8 now so it’s time to make the jump for the gophers. Maybe the expectations in Minny are not as high as I have perceived them to be.

I did not make the statement based on last years performance but more so Eggum's full body of work. The expectation for the Gophers should be to be a top 5 team semi-regularly.

Correct

I would say the seat is getting hot for Eggum at Minnesota.

with 40 pounds of extra size, I am sure he is.

USA has traditionally crushed in basketball, though there has been some parity over the years. The other sports have international parity.

I would love to see Folkstyle wrestling in the Olympics, it's just not a style that is popular internationally. It would be like putting football in the olympics, USA would just crush.

Isn't Kerk in the 250-260 range?

Let's focus on getting the olympics back to 10 weights. Folkstyle wrestling olympics happen every March in the USA at NCAA's. Not enough interest for it outside the USA.

So it’s okay to murder babies as long as it’s done by a doctor? Got it.

Biden/Harris "facts"

Read the definition of chemical castration from the Cleveland Clinic. Read the article where they have lowered limits for chemical castration to 14 years old. Read the article where they have lowered the limits of trans surgeries to 15-17 years old. Read the article where a 22 year old trans had her breasts cut off at 16 and began chemical castration at 16. Then after you read it, try to comprehend what you have just read. You should be an expert at that with your high levels of expertise in education.

from the Cleveland Clinic https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/22402-chemical-castration What is chemical castration? Chemical castration, sometimes called medical castration, refers to the use of chemicals or drugs to stop sex hormone production. While many people know about this process as a way to stop sex offenders, medical castration is used as a treatment for tumors that feed on sex hormones. The treatment, also called hormone therapy, may be used to treat breast cancer and prostate cancer.

"Gabe Poulos, 22, had breast removal surgery at age 16 and has been on sex hormones for seven years."
