    Just watched. Good film. Kudos to Flo, Chance and his wife in particular. On a wrestling note, can we talk about the reviewed call vs Burroughs where both corners wanted 4? The singlet pull got much of the press but this call is a great illustration IMO of why I don’t like the freestyle rule of “who initiated the move.” It’s not ideal that the refs’ decision can decide an 8 point swing (9 if you count a lost challenge point)

    I also wouldn’t think Rutgers would be the best place to go hunting

    So much for the people that claim they can always tell if someone is trans then

    “With her teammates”
  5. 1032004
    This is a lie.

    I believe even the girl on the same team that’s suing says she lived with Fleming for months before realizing she was trans. I agree she shouldn’t be playing, but those calling it a “safety issue” are reaching IMO. She seems to be above average, but that’s about it. If her participating is a safety issue then it’s also a safety issue for Carter Starocci and Gable Steveson to still have eligibility also.

    Also rules can change, but not really in the middle of the season. My guess is folks are trying to highlight the issue now so that they will change the rules later. Unfortunately any players involuntarily forfeiting are collateral damage.

    On the PSU forum they seem to be expecting some of the bigger name guys to transfer, just not to Rutgers and I’d agree with that. Only semi-notable guy on their roster that makes sense to Rutgers IMO is Gibson. I’d give an outside chance for Sealey but unlikely IMO. Only guy from Iowa that would make sense to Rutgers is Ferrari, but he doesn’t seem to fit the description the poster described anyway.

    San Jose State lost in the conference tournament final
  10. 1032004
    I don’t know for sure but I’m afraid the women are being used as pawns for political theater. IMO, if I was in their shoes I would rather beat the trans player than forfeit. Especially since she doesn’t even seem to be all that good.

    Yes in the case of Nevada it seems clear it was the players’ choice, as evidenced by their official statement. Not so much for Boise State and Wyoming who as far as I’m aware only issued vague statements. The most recent one from Boise State was particularly weird IMO, saying they “had to” forfeit. Maybe I’m reading too much into it but I also find it interesting that they did not post anything about it on their official x profile, despite multiple posts during and after their win in the previous round

    Yes I’m aware. But the conference tourney is a lot different than a regular season game. And speaking of the other teams, it does appear that “outside pressure” was involved in Wyoming forfeiting. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/wyoming-volleyball-coach-worried-about-political-pressure-to-forfeit-vs-san-jose-state/ar-AA1tNjec Again, I am all for them forfeiting if that’s what the players choose, but hopefully it’s actually them that chose.
  13. 1032004
    I commend them for doing this, although I’m curious if it was actually their choice. This video seems odd to me, they’re celebrating their win in the previous round and they already know their opponent is going to be the one with the trans player, but the trans players don’t seem to know they’re about to forfeit. I’ve also noticed the Idaho governor has been posting about this topic on x often. Is it possible this wasn’t the team’s choice?

    Minnesota and SDSU could be good. Too bad no one has Midco sports plus
  15. 1032004
    The ranking seems pretty good but I think Lee is being treated a bit unfairly, mainly by giving major decision % equal weight to pin and tech %. Changing that would move him ahead of Snyder. Wins also hurts Lee and Steveson who won during the shortened 2021 season, unless did you include 2020 wins also?

    Parco was in the portal
  17. 1032004
    Not in college folkstyle matches
  18. 1032004
    Where they already have 2 guys that can AA and when Arnold supposedly spent the offseason bulking up? I still think they should have used Arnold last year and he potentially could’ve redshirted this year
  19. 1032004
    I get the “wanting to see the new recruit” angle, but Arnold hasn’t had a lot of matches, people probably want to see him too. I also don’t think it’s comparable to last year because Arnold was clearly better than Riggins or whoever else they would have put at 184.
  20. 1032004
    I’m still surprised there isn’t more discussion about Ferrari/Arnold. I’m still assuming Ferrari redshirts, but using in the ISU match with the match on the line (and depriving Arnold of an opportunity for a ranked win) is a pretty big statement IMO. Does that mean Ferrari is beating Arnold?

    Wait Ben Kueter is really vegan?
  22. 1032004
    But there’s also a decent chance they might not be 3 deep at 197 and/or 285…
  23. 1032004
    My understanding is that the RTC is a completely separate practice
  24. 1032004
    Are you saying you know how Steller Trained came about and it’s a good story, or just you wish he talked about it more? Not sure about Steller Trained, but IIRC, didn’t he first start coaching at his local high school while he was on house arrest or something? (I have not watched the film yet)

    Blaze and Forrest already have wins over NCAA 2nd and 5th place finishers respectively in college folkstyle matches, so they will have an argument to be able to be ranked higher than Lilledahl and Barr before putting on a college singlet.
