Thought the same exact thing. Tom to first reporter: Ask the question you want to ask! Tom to next reporter: You know I can’t answer that! LOL. It certainly seemed like he was inviting the first guy to ask about Ferrari. He didn’t, but I honestly don’t have a problem with that question. “Do you have plans to add anyone to the roster for the second semester” answers the Ferrari(s) question without having to say the name. Of course Tom had to add the “at this moment” which adds ambiguity.

Stinks to hear. Was hoping to see him AA in a wOSU singlet

Apparently so. Wayback machine 11/27 https://web.archive.org/web/20231127091941/https://hawkeyesports.com/sports/wrestling/roster/

I believe he was already on the roster

this guy does in fact live in NJ (from Real Housewives show):

On Baschamania Willie said that “Fix is gonna try” to go 125

This. The answer is Starocci

Agree. Although I’d be curious about how many Cornell wrestling ag school alums actually work in that field.

Those averages for BTN and ESPNU are surprising to me, thanks. It was pointed out in some of the discussion about this on twitter that the Iowa/Rutgers bball game mentioned was womens and Caitlin Clark has been drawing big numbers. This person seems to post some other numbers and the wrestling numbers mentioned were comparable to some other womens bball games on BTN, which seems reasonable: And it looks like the ESPNU numbers were about half of womens volleyball playoffs, which also seems reasonable. So you’re right, maybe not as bad as it seems.

I get the complaints about wrestling being on things like “Midco Sports Plus,” but BTN and ESPNU are 2 of the more mainstream places to watch...

So you’re saying we shouldn’t have even talked about Fernandes? One other thing to note, it seemed his mom at least didn’t think he needed any help…

That was up there with craziest lines from the interview. I also liked "I really grew as a person" during the time off from wrestling while he's doing an interview trying to explain why he took a swing at a potential teammate and flipped off the crowd. And repeatedly calling Christian Pyes "Christina" when he was accused of sexual misconduct towards a woman And saying "I've never disrespected anyone that hasn't disrespected me" when we've seen the messages he's sent to women And of course, calling one of the coaches in his corner "Dillon" Dennis

The revisionist history from the Iowa fans is really something. Now some of them claiming Chittum wasn’t staying regardless of the Ferraris coming. The poster that Willie screenshotted just said Anthony allegedly pulled a knife on him at Blair…

I’d like to see Angelo get as far away from AJ as possible. Oregon State maybe?

No. It's #2 though.

3.5 hour drive from State College. What are we thinking…50% PSU fans?

Tagen Jamison’s dad posting in Minnow’s Fb group pretty confident that Fix is staying at 133

Not great. Although I do find it interesting when Pyles never says anything when Askren always talks about all the matches he watched on illegal YouTube streams…

Yes. Technically may be true, but…

If the Iowa staff doesn’t actually let him on the team, then I don’t think they look too bad. They were trying to give him a chance and he blew it. But if this video is from when it was posted, I imagine the AD may not be happy that he is using campus facilities (thanks to the RTC) - https://www.instagram.com/reel/C12PTlQrHIW/

They could have done it intentionally knowing what his actual race is. I would doubt it was more than 1 person saying it though.

I thought they did a decent job. I mean the first question they asked was about the criminal charges, it doesn’t really get much more hardball than that.

My guess is maybe slurs that Hispanic people are called? I mean other wrestlers have said Iowa fans called them racist names, that part is actually believable IMO. But him saying Glazier started the altercation and basically that he wasn’t really sorry for what he did was pretty cringe.

What makes you say that?

To be fair, even if Fix weighed in at 130 that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s going 125
