I guess you should tell those guys with Nazi flags

You're joking right? That is absolutely one of the variations of it.

I already addressed the latter, but I know you have trouble reading, so I'll reiterate. You're talking about pictures of people speaking with their hands and happened to have them raised in the moment a photograph was taken. That's normal. I'm talking about a movement. Video. Motion. Done deliberately. Twice. I don't know what his motivations were for doing a Nazi salute. Maybe he's a Nazi sympathizer. Maybe he did it for the lulz. Maybe some other reason. I don't know. I'm saying he did it, regardless of his reason, and he didn't deny it or repudiate Nazism.

So a group of people liked when someone did something they thought was good and then disliked when someone did something they thought was bad. Wow, that's crazy.

He didn't invent a solution to climate change, but I don't know what that would even have to do with Nazism. But again, I didn't call him a Nazi. Though you could certainly make the argument that his beliefs and family history aligns with Nazism. I'm saying he clearly did a Nazi salute (fact) and that he did not deny doing it intentionally (fact).

Are you you really that thick? He didn't just happen to have his arm up in the air dude. He wasn't illustrating something, or talking with his hands. He wasn't even talking. Watch the full motion of it. He made a very deliberate salute from his chest, to the air. And then he turned around and did the exact same thing a second time.

If you accidentally did a perfect Nazi salute, wouldn't you at least say "no, that's not what I was doing and I would never do such a thing" ? What he said isn't a denial of doing the Nazi salute and it isn't a repudiation of Nazism.

Sorry but I have a hard time believing Cael's game plan was to prioritize giving Carter Starocci an advantage lol

Big coincidence then...

Yes. The coaches didn't agree on what weight to start, so they flipped a coin. PSU won the coin toss and they started at 174.

That's a very narrow view of what a team is, and I think it's wrong. Wrestling matches obviously aren't collaborative in the way a basketball game is, but the matches aren't isolated like you're saying either. The matches don't happen in a vacuum. Your teammates affect you and your coaches affect you. In training and also during the match. There is also a momentum that affects how a dual goes. That's pretty clear when watching it, but it's also been explicitly stated by the wrestlers time and again. It's also evidenced by things like Cael refusing to start the recent Nebraska dual at 125.

Don't be thick. Doing the guns up sign to the crowd is entirely different than standing over a guy and imitating emptying a clip into his head

I wasn't a fan of wrestling a year ago. Never wrestled; never followed it. I was only familiar with some of the biggest names and would only watch NCAAs if I happened to need something to watch and it was on ESPN (though it's been a long time since I had ESPN), as well as a bit of the Olympics. I got a little more interested after learning John Smith was retiring and David Taylor was taking over. One Olympic legend passing the torch to another plus the possibility that maybe Penn State won't win 11 of the next 13 team titles was pretty interesting, but I really knew nothing about wrestling. Flo's podcast has been an accessible way to learn about the world of wrestling and their live match commentaries (along with others) has been a way for me to learn what is actually going on during the matches. I probably couldn't give you a textbook definition with qualifiers for what is and is not a takedown, but I feel like I know it when I see it now. I never miss an episode of FRL now and I'm invested in a lot wrestlers I've become a fan of at all levels of wrestling. I attended my first dual meet recently and took my family. Hope to go to more in the future when time and funds permit. I'm sure there's plenty to critique and improve about Flo and their coverage, and since I'm a new fan, I can't say if it's better or worse than it was in the past, but I can definitely say they make the sport "palatable" to new fans.

They cover matches that otherwise wouldn't get quality, nationwide coverage. They even put a fair amount of it out for free on YouTube, including some free livestreams like the recent Bishop McCort-Wyoming Sem dual. They have a crazy number of rankings, updated regularly, at all levels of wrestling. Articles, recaps, interviews, and so on. Brackets with live updates. Athlete profile pages with biographies, match videos, and results. A fun and accessible wrestling podcast with nice production quality. Tons of free video content, with a ton of variety. Watch Bader's Chance documentary, or watch Tyler's video with Bo and Jax on the first day of open recruiting. High quality work that gives insights and access you wouldn't get otherwise. And they're literally putting on events. They matched up Ono and Spencer Lee. Is there more of a dream matchup even possible of any current guys at any weight? Insane to say they don't do anything for wrestling.

he's had a rough week, but has had a great year otherwise. he'll be fine imo

OSU is holding a women's exhibition match during intermission on Sunday during the WVU dual

Have there been similar exhibitions as part of collegiate duals in the past? Any involving coaches? Kinda wild, I love it though. Maybe they can add a couple more matches from their RTCs. Between this and Flo's event a month later, the state of Iowa is getting spoiled

I could see them hiring his dad

Can you cite your source?

You're the guy who just wrote a whole breakdown about where Bo Bassett is going to school next year with the incorrect assumption that he is a senior. Maybe you can forgive Flo for a couple typos?

That's the nature of all tournaments, including the individual tournaments. There is variation and luck with styles and matchups and seeding. There's no perfect system.

You want to give examples?

March 27. Not May. March is before May. Check the date

Hamiti said in an interview he was already coming. Wyatt also was already coming, but had to get everything worked out first. If you don't believe that, fine, he had already taken a visit to OSU (his first), so obviously your line "They got several elite transfers they'd have never gotten otherwise." is bs
