Is Nebraska focusing too much on the built, not bought?
Johnyt9 replied to huskerlucas's topic in College Wrestling
What Nebraksa is doing is certainly impressive. I think the statement is meant to build positive narrative around the team - some people think it means UN won't go after guys in the portal. I don't think that is true. I think they've tried and weren't able to land them. Things don;t go there way so they use what they have at their disposal to sell their success. Any team (or any business) would spin it the same way. No harm, no foul. I just don;t think anyone should have the perception that Nebraska won;t add portal guys if they can get them at a price they can reasonably pay -
What about Ono and Blaze? rumor also is Kharchala will be back

its just PR spin. They dont have the fund to compete with Iowa, Michigan, tOSU for Guys like Bailey, McNeil, and Stiles. They had a good tournament and they spin all of this to say "built, not bought," but they are trying to buy guys too - just cant compete financially PR 101 -
He also predicted TJ Stewart to NCST - no announcement there yet either

Aaron Brooks Dad used to post on both the PSU and Iowa message boards
-
cult-like behavior - their lord and savior Ca-El Sanderson didn't sanction the event so they must trash its mere existence
-
I had a lot of friends at Iowa from Illinois that did this exact thing
-
is ohio state hard to get into?
-
Anyone ever see the two of them in the same room?
-
Gross? JO? wasn't Zach Sanders and Spratley pretty close?

Your boss trains you to do something. you excel at your job and ask for a raise, they wont give it to you but someone else will bring you in for more money, should you be able to accept the offer or not?
-
thats because he is mentally weak
-
What does this say about Rocco then? he left tOSU b.c of similar distrust with coaching staff / or adversity
-
Except that it is neither massive fraud or recruiting violations - not anymore And let know if you are consistent about this with other teams transfers or are you comfortable accusing them in this manner
-
I could see either at 133. Flynn is long hed need to hit the weights. Volk seems big at 125 but I think he could be a title contender there

3 months passed what changed

The once Great Iowa Wrestling Program reaching Pathetic status
Johnyt9 replied to feet2back's topic in College Wrestling
nothing pathetic about it. They have the money because of the fan support they garnered by having such an incredible Wrestling history. What would be pathetic is not utilizing the resources to try to become competitive and win a title or you know constantly slinging mud at a program online bc you have nothing better to do -
which also doesn't make sense b/c he also wanted to be closer to home. So in summary wanted better situation, wanted to be closer to home, but didn't know if PSU would take him. Any other school close to home would have been a downgrade in training partners etc. Clearly conversations were had ahead of time - and that isn't that big of deal everyone is doing it It's just PSU fans and PSU media refuses to pretend they play the same game as other schools
-
Could Chittum go 149? maybe hed have better results there - I think he looks big at 157 but not tall, maybe he could cut down IDK 157: Paddy 165 Cannon 174 Birden

Welsh confirms other schools offered more NIL $$$
Johnyt9 replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Basch is the PSU. PR team. He is completely biased and you can tell he coaches the PSU kids that come on his show what to say and uses leading questions strategically. With that being said - his shows are really great if you can looks past the blatant homerism. Particularly the Basch and the brain show with Willie (again you have to get past Willies arrogance) but very informative much better than Flo -
I dont think itd be wise for tOSU to RS Chittum - I mean they just had the debacle with Rocco, not to mention Chittum hasn't exactly shown that he likes to stick around a place for too long. I'd imagine Chittum came in to be the 157 starter and Cannon had a plan to change weights - I have thought he looks small for 157 but certainly has a frame to get bigger
-
doubt you can use the Greyshirt in this manner but your point stands

Johnyt9 replied to Jimmy Cinnabon's topic in College Wrestling
Rocco just said hes going 184 and will wrestled 79 kg for Freestlye b.c it is only a few weigh-ins - so clearly no longer wants to wrestle 174 for folk -
do you think he feels this way?
