Interviewed_at_Weehawken

Exactly. I know a Teams guy. Did a greyshirt and then college. They took him, no problem! Not to mention that I have heard it said all the time that there is no real formula for guessing who will make it and who won't. I am told that stud athletes fail all the time. Supposedly a big thing is dealing with failure. You are going to deal with finishing low, barely finishing, or failing various tests. Sometimes star athletes can't deal with that. (Does this sound right to anyone more knowledgeable than me?)

Dislocated elbow

DNP?

Not to mention that Noto (and I think) was getting mouthy with NC State bench after his bout (OT win?) during their dual this year. If I remember correctly, several people had to be restrained and/or removed from the situation. Not even nearly as bad as the other allegation, but it just doesn't scream "class act."

Everyone is doing it. Woods was initially tied to PSU, via reports but that was later denied. PSU also has had plenty of others with Hildebrant, Conel, Betancourt, etc. Some have worked out better than others. Let's not forget the supposed Griffith and Wick attempts. The point that I made was: don't pretend that Dean was the only guy to ever transfer to PSU and wrestle. Also, don't pretend that PSU doesn't use the portal. It is just not accurate. They have the best overall program and it is not even close. It is ok to tell the truth, though. https://victorybellrings.com/2022/03/29/penn-state-wrestling-transfer-real-woods/

There is a hall of fame coach in another collegiate sport, a sport known for having even far crazier parents than wrestling. When he was asked what qualities an ideal recruit would have, he replied "an orphan."

...but I'm 100% serious. The photo is out there. I'm just not willing or able to transfer it from the Minnow forum comments section to this forum.

You don't have to have less than 4" if the defensive man is in a bridge, on both elbows, or at 45 degrees (or less).

Would be real tough for Starocci to make 74 kg if he moved to 184. That is his stated goal, the 74 kg. It is going to be tough enough already. Could he reevaluate his goals? Certainly. I'm just going off what he has said.

I believe it was Parker Keckheisen.

There is a picture of him drinking a bud light, supposedly in the concourse. It seems to be the reason. He has his warmups on, and his holding the beer in the same hand as his trophy, so the story checks out. It was definitely shortly after awards.

Yes, I was on past board. I don't really hate UNC, Tech on the other hand! (and my wife went to Tech) I headed down for ACC tourney this year and had a great time. I was actually sitting with UNC team members and parents for a bit. Had fun rooting for AOC vs. Andonian in the final.

NC State fan here.

I take it as "sick of wrestling; going through the motions; doesn't really care; wants his season/career to be over with."

THanks. My main point was "don't pretend that Dea is their only transfer."

Yes, but they can at least admit that they both exist!

"Yeah…Penn State really needs that portal! Without Max Dean’s 7th place points, Iowa would’ve smoked them!" "How about Kerk's points." So clearing up the record and asking for accuracy is a bad thing now?

LOL I responded to a post that recognized Dean's points as being from a transfer, acting like he was the only transfer PSU had. It was incomplete, inaccurate, and misleading. I set the record straight. You don't like facts? No "whtachamacallit" here!

How about Kerk's points?

Too bad!

Are you talking about the same guys who are fine with Kerkvliet forfeiting at NCAA, but act as of Lee is a villain for forfeiting?

Is JC actually the Minnow?

The great PSU fan from the other board said it wasn't ok to say "Tummy Time" when talking about Kerk! He had staph two years ago, and its not his fault and I was told that I was a bad person for bringing up "tummy time."

It exists. Jimmy's "Penn State Wish List" thread.

Since when?
