I don’t think there are really any others that are particularly active unless you want to join in with a bunch of Penn State fans saying to trust in Cael or a bunch of Iowa fans yelling at the sky.
I recommend getting an ad blocker
Well if you’re saying Ferrari was “expected” to actually compete, then no. But even outside of him Glazier had also lost to fellow Hawkeye Kolby Franklin during the previous season (who did not wrestle in 2023-2024 and appears to have now “medically retired”)
5th year senior and 2x All American Nick Nevills was also “intentionally displaced” in the PSU lineup, albeit not by a transfer.
I agree that what Iowa did this offseason is “the worst” we’ve seen so far, but that’s simply because they’re poaching guys that weren’t in the portal. Doesn’t really have anything to do with the guys losing their spot in the lineup IMO.
Are you a PSU fan? This seems a bit biased. Drawing the line at Glazier is odd to me, considering he won 1 match at NCAA’s last year, and Penn State has displaced at least one All-American via the transfer portal. Glazier probably isn’t even the best guy this season to lose a spot in the Iowa lineup due to transfers, that title belongs to Kennedy IMO, and he’s still there. Overall I think guys at schools like Penn State and Iowa know your spot is never really safe.
It’s also a near certainty that guys like Nagao and Truax got significant sums of money to go to Penn State, even if was less than what Iowa offered, which may be more than what existing team members are getting (or maybe not considering the rumored amount that Starocci is getting).
I know the Helen doc was only advertised as 1 night only, but it’s 2024, how many movies that made any appearance in theaters never become available to stream even months or years later?
Yes I remember those allegations. But IIRC, it really boiled down to allegations of a consensual relationship among adults. Obviously inappropriate and worthy of being fired, but unless there was something else then nothing against the law, and I wouldn’t think that would result in no longer having women in the club at all.
If so, I feel like this should be a bigger story and I have a lot of questions that probably won’t be answered
Did he have anything to do with why Martori stopped funding it in the first place and/or why they changed the name?
Did he have anything to do with why the Helen documentary disappeared after one day? (I was one of the probably tens of people that saw it and he was featured fairly prominently in it IIRC)
Have any of the women commented on this situation?
Wasn’t Perry at the Olympics?
Have any of the bigger name women besides Blades announced they were going elsewhere? Seems like a pretty big deal for the best women’s club by far (four of the six Olympians had it listed as one of their clubs, three of which had only Sunkist listed) to go poof.
Looks like both Iowa and Penn State (and I’m sure many others) offer the opportunity to be a non-degree student.

I only saw Minnow saying one wrestler said no, which I assume was referring to Lilledahl. To me that (as well as the reported offers Iowa made to guys like Nagao) indicates that other schools are paying large amounts as well, even though they may be less than Iowa.
I get what he’s saying but I think he’s wrong because I imagine recruits are going to start getting similar offers if they aren’t already. The reason transfers are allegedly getting more than recruits is because the NIL craziness has pretty much just started.
