I think Ramos makes more sense than Snyder and Jaggers who haven't been HC's before that I'm aware of. I guess you're right that Koll is a step above Kolat but I'd still consider him to be a "big name" and yes I would probably include Pendleton and Hahn in that group. I don't see Pendleton leaving the other OSU for UNC, Hahn maybe.

I think someone already shared this but this is one reason: It clearly was enough for OSU to seemingly want Scott to take over for John Smith. If I’m Ramos, I can’t fault them if they hire Koll or Kolat. But outside of a big name like that Ramos probably makes the most sense. Honestly I think Ramos makes more sense for UNC than Scott makes for OSU (as they do have more ability to hire a big name), but maybe that’s a different discussion.

7 years of college coaching experience including 4 as the associate HC all at the same school seems like a stretch to call him a "prospect." He of course also has the credentials as a wrestler that everyone seems to want in coaching for some reason too.

Aren't there usually requirements that jobs need to be posted for a certain amount of time or something anyway? (Which may also be why there appears to be such concern about calling Scott the HC in waiting at OSU)

Yeah. I think the only possibility was Musser chose neutral in the second and there was no scoring. I was a bit confused because the announcers didn’t even mention riding time until several seconds after it was secured, at first I was questioning if there was no RT or something back then.

Looks like Musser went to the AJ Ferrari school of top wrestling. Thanks for the video

This is interesting: Guessing OSU (maybe even Smith?) isn’t letting anyone report it until they announce it, even though everyone knows it’s going to happen. Minnow has a point for once…

I’m sure there have been other instances. On the flip side, isn’t it pretty often in folk that people complain that stalling seems to often NOT be called in the last 10 seconds or so?

If the ref was “determined” wouldn’t they have made the call without it needing to be challenged?

I thought @goheels1812 was saying he was disappointed in their performance outside of O'Connor?

Has it ever happened before where a HC of a top 25-ish team has left to become a non-HC elsewhere in D1? Will be interesting to see if there is still a real search for OSU's HC assuming Smith leaves after next year. I have to imagine other guys will be interested that wouldn't have wanted to be Associate HC first.

Scott leaving is official

Saw someone in Minnow’s thread mention Rob Koll. I know there was rumors he was going to their RTC after he left Cornell, so seems plausible. But I would think Ramos would be a good choice.

Mark Hall’s age was talked about quite a bit IIRC. Daton Fix a bit too, are 2 that stick out to me.

I think Mesenbrink will start. Cael hopes he doesn’t win to keep his only undefeated 4xer status in tact

Jimmy might’ve been right about something

The only shocker on here IMO is Caliendo at 2. Amine has a good track record vs Hamiti. But after watching Messenbrink this week I wouldn’t be shocked to see him win 165.

Yes I believe he made another recent social media post debating it. I assume he’ll be back though

Minnow claiming Coleman Scott to OSU as Associate Head Coach and heir apparent to Smith. I know Willie alluded to some “big moves,” so I’m guessing this is true.

Isn’t that the t-shirt brand that Stevan Micic talks about and costs like $800 a shirt or something?

I feel like I haven’t heard of many guys planning to take an Olympic redshirt this season, do we know of any notable ones? I know there was talk of Cassioppi if Gable went to Iowa, but doesn’t look like that is happening. Unless maybe it would help get out of gambling trouble if he is implicated - looks like Woods and Assad also qualify for an ORS for Iowa. Seems like Fix and Vito are not planning to. If this list is accurate, one that stands out to me is maybe Facundo https://yappi.com/forum/index.php?threads/2023-2024-olympic-redshirt-qualifiers.360487/

Meredith didn’t fight?

I thought the OP was asking about head or assistant? Then you have also have Gwiz, Telford, not sure who else
