Jimmy (pronouns pinfall/loan default) suffers grievously from fan dysphoria because he identifies as a PSU fan while having an Iowa chromosome. Most of us cannot imagine what it is like for orange supremacists to pressure Jimmy to conform when all he really wants is to have fun. He is one stunningly brave bun. This is an affirmative action issue. The Supreme Court willing, it is high time that we have a trans-fan moderator head up a forum. Only through acceptance and tolerance can we hope to grow the sport.

Gary Busy and Jack Black are too old

Pyles vs , naw. I'd better stop

Technology vs Flo? Maybe not an upset but it beat the spread

Maybe Jordan's singlet vs Chance's opposable thumb?

Or Berger's head over Zain's

Chance over previous mistakes

"Rather, the issue was that wrestlers untrained in handling such weapons were placed into advanced-level military training exercises." Huh? Could someone explain what I'm missing here? Were they fighting with pugil sticks? Good for Perry getting a settlement but this sentence ..?? Pugil Sticks are used in BASIC training. As a Marine I was taught a slash, a smash and a thrust. We then proceeded to slash, smash and thrust (mostly wild whacking) each other. Nothing "advanced-level" about it. It was fun. I'm guessing that cavemen did this without any training. Nothing about those BASIC training 3 techniques would prevent injury from a faulty equipment issue in this basic-level military training exercise. The issue (IMHO) was world class athletes stressing faulty equipment. See below link. Notice at 8 second mark the marine using an open face mask. Hopefully these have been retired and replaced. https://www.google.com/search?q=pugil+sticks+marines&rlz=1CAKDUD_enUS890&oq=pugil+sticks&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0i512l9.6659j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:2b5ffb15,vid:wqbNFfyUVpQ Sorry for the old guy vet rant. Get off my lawn.

Some in the wrestling world are worth following. Quentin Wight is one worth following - anybody have other suggestions and examples? Here is a reply from Wright:

Wow. I just heard that MInnow has posted that all the children at University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital are transferring to Penn State Health Children's Hospital in Hersey if any Ferrari's join the Hawkeye program. Bob Nicolis can't understand it but we all know its about Ferrari, Thon money and being repeatedly woken up during football games.

My sources tell me that an irate forum poster, outraged over non-payment of a gambling debt, took Jimmy out just as he was stepping out of an Ann Arbor bakery. A letter signed by 100 former intelligence officials has been published which states that, subsequent to Jimmy's demise, Pastry posts have all the markings of a foreign disinformation scheme targeted to divide and confuse PSU and Iowa wrestling fans and thereby to weaken America. According to experts, a self aware AI developed by UM scientists and processing in a Wuhan China virus lab could very well be the source.

The King Pin started young. Legend has it that he used a cradle as an infant to pin his own diapers.

Grant knew how to apply superior strength to maintain the initiative against defense, stalls and counters. That was his genius. No other cracked the code against Lee. If Lee had not entered the portal he may have developed an effective offensive game, but he made his choice and was effectively countered on his two offensive thrusts.

I rank Lee below General Grant even though Lee was funky in scrambles and a real bugger to take down.

Max absolutely made the best decision for himself. The portal tipped the scale from school to athlete. Kudo's to him for not succumbing to pressure and sacrificing a year to COVID hysteria. Link to Max Dean's Letter

Isn't it great that we live in a country where Brooks was free to say what he did, network wasn't afraid to broadcast what he said, and we can therefore exchange opinions regarding what he said. Free speech and freedom of the press in action. I love it when a plan comes together

It does sound like Cornell could make some noise with organic (i.e., non-transfer) talent alone. From what I understand Cornell has some handicaps regarding red shirting, transfers and academic entrance standards that make it hard.

Pretty much the usual suspects - from the B10. Iowa, PSU will be in the hunt almost every year. Ohio State is the sleeping giant. Michigan is a very popular destination as a graduate portal destination and can patch together one year runs quickly, as can some of the high end Big10 academic schools (Wiscy and NW). Minn and Neb could strike if they can attach transfers to add to organic talent. If Pitt starts to care about wrestling I could see them sneak in as an ACC disrupter - but they will need a deep pocket donation. I'd really like to see some ACC team emerge but until mid-atlantic states churn out more HS stars probably not. OKSt is damaged right now but will emerge again after it finds the right coach. Iowa State is probably doomed to be a little brother. Cornell is a dark horse but I have to believe that the Ivy's will remain also-rans. The PAC12 situation is unsettled so probably nothing from here - Arizona State maybe. There is a lot of talent on the left coast afterall. But then again I never thought PSU would keep it together as long as they already have. The University is currently cutting staff in order to address a $145 million operating deficit so they are not exactly awash in money for wrestling facilities. I don't think this will impact wrestling but who knows.

Murin is underrated and exploited SVN difficulties with penetrating a really good head, hands defense and handling tough mat wrestling. I think you're right and SVN would suffer again if Murin were in his draw.

Iowa and TnT will be just fine. What PSU has done over the decade is remarkable. But in this age of portal, NIL, etc it is the wild west. I could see four or five teams winning championships over the next decade.
