  1. AI is definitely coming for our jobs.
  2. Would've been funny if the wrestlers switched into the black singlets right before their match and the admins. that went along to audit had to shoot in on them to stop them from stepping onto the mat.
  3. Lots of guys seem to have that these days
  4. How does Ventresca have another year? RS + medical RS?
  5. I can't speak to CA law specifically, but that "eavesdropping" law typically only applies to audio recordings/phone calls and not video (even though the video includes audio).
  6. I doubt any of these kids are on wrestling scholarships. These kids could've chosen other schools to wrestle at but they chose CBU. They should be getting a "thank you" from the AD for agreeing to represent CBU.
  7. What a scumbag. He thinks he's doing them a favor by letting them wrestle. They're doing CBU the favor by representing their school on the mat. Very Christian of him.
  8. By definition NIL cannot be performance based. That's a violation of NCAA rules.
  9. NIL is for name, image and likeness, not performance. So as long as Nichols got Bailey and Williams to do meet & greets, sell t-shirts, and sign autographs during the season, he got every penny's worth.
  10. I don't think Angelo has the frame to get to 197. He looks average or even small compared to other 184s. But how wild would it be if AJ, Angelo and Anthony all went in the portal and offered some team a package deal?
  11. Post them if you got them. Thanks!
  12. Are we trying to turn college wrestling into college football?
  13. Yeah - injury to the starter.
  14. You're right if you limit the pool to Big Ten D1 starters. For every starter there's 2-3 guys behind them working on their degrees. Not to mention the guys at the Ivies, SoCon, EIWA, etc. Most of these guys are 4 year grinders who recognize this is just a college extracurricular activity.
  15. I was a 17 year old freshman. It's not too young. "As would any wrestler" - you just made this up. Vast majority of wrestlers opted not to take the covid year. Vast majority every year decline to redshirt and compete 4 yrs. instead of 5.
  16. Would you want to be a 17 or 18 year old college freshman standing across from him in a dual meet? Doesn't seem fair, does it?
  17. When it comes to white-collar professionals, they're not doing what they love. They just want the cash grab. As far as athletes go, nothing was sadder than seeing MJ play for the Wizards, late-career Muhammad Ali, even Randy Lewis get teched by Muz at Midlands a while back. People need to know when to move on to the next stage in life.
  18. I'm 55 yrs. old. Been there, done that.
  19. He's 25 yrs old. It's time to get a job.
  20. Funny - I was just thinking about this today. Big bro is at NE and Silas Aldred done there after this year.
  21. If he was a player/coach like Paul Newman in Slapshot or Crash Davis in Bull Durham, I'd be more sympathetic.
  22. If it makes you feel any better, I feel the same way about lawyers, consultants, and other professionals working into their 70s and refusing to pass clients/work onto the younger generation. Just greedy.
  23. I don't cheer for any of these old timers who keep hanging around college, taking opportunities from younger wrestlers.
  24. People who do this are so f'n gay.
