Gotcha. Yeah I’d be shocked if that had anything to do with it for other reasons, most notably him openly talking about how he “didn’t get along with some people on the staff.” Unless maybe one of them was the compliance person…

Yes, Buchanan also.

Sure but it’s not like it’s anything new. And if AJ wasn’t a good athlete he probably wouldn’t have gotten into UNC in the first place.

Koll’s been around the block. I guarantee the AD and admissions staff knew. The President, maybe not (and still might not)

You think the admin didn’t know about the charges when they brought him in? Unless maybe the “alumnus’s partner” that was quoted is a big donor or something?

No clue if these “reports” are true, but the difference between AJ is that any revenue he brings in would be a blip compared to a basketball player. And I’m not really a Belichick fan but I don’t think it’s fair to lump him in with sexual misconduct. If anyone is being taken advantage of in that relationship it’s him.

Depends what % of the crowd is PSU/NLWC fans. But TBH, he kinda deserves to be booed IMO. Just maybe not to the extent some NLWC fans treated Jordan Burroughs (who of course has never been arrested to my knowledge)

I think it’s reasonable to believe he didn’t realize a USADA suspension could effect his coaching.

I think that was just Willie TBH. However, Basch acknowledged that his initial opinion was that Gilman DGAF, but backtracked off of that while claiming he had no inside knowledge. But Basch was Gilman’s first interview after he left OSU, I’d be surprised if he hadn’t heard from Gilman before he commented on this story. Kinda seems to me that Gilman really DGAF until he realized it could effect his coaching, but yes that’s just speculation. But I also would bet Gilman didn’t realize he could be suspended until after he had already left OSU.

He doesn’t coach an NCAA team…

Over and over? It’s only been like two weeks since he was arrested. I’ll be curious to see if any interesting signs make an appearance if he’s at Final X though.

Ha yup. I believe it was also reported he grabbed her butt, I forget if that was before or after payment was made, if before, that doesn’t seem like something a novice would do

I believe there were folks claiming it came from Columbus police officers that were former wrestlers. Of course still second or third hand though

Willie seemed to be saying that he didn’t need it just to coach a practice, but I’m not sure that’s correct (and Basch disagreed with him)

Listening to the show now. They said because of the USADA suspension it means he is also suspended by USA Wrestling. So yeah, that likely means both he and his employers probably care.

I don’t thinks he’s really a “paid hater” of other programs TBH. Just a “paid lover” of PSU and “his guys”

You wouldn’t put Iowa above any of those?

He’s appealing? I thought the report was that he accepted it?

Pyle said on FRL that he is “almost certain” that Snyder will wrestle at Final X.

I’m not blowing it off. I just think it’s silly to try to shift blame from the recent incident to someone that’s been gone for 2 years.

“Former” dad? Was his kid on the team during the recent incident? If not why is he doing interviews? If so, I am no PSU fan but sounds like he’s just in CYA mode. If it’s been an issue for years why wasn’t it reported previously? Edit: and how the heck would a dad that’s not a coach even be involved in hazing?

Is his Dad a coach or something? Braeden has been gone for 2+ years, I’m not sure I’d blame him for anything especially if this is about a specific incident

I think sometimes he leaves out the “Veterans” word altogether

Could probably also add their 5x national champ drawing pictures of sex toys on competing wrestlers, and the guy running an MMA gym in town telling haters to suck his D (I guess Snyder isn’t the only PSU/NLWC-affiliated athlete looking for that outside of marriage)

Well to be fair, given he had to call an ad, he may not have really known where to look.
