  1. This says everything one needs to know about "Offthemat," and why I won't bother reading anything posted by that user.
  2. COVID is a virus, not a microbe. FFS. Better do some more YouTube research.
  3. What an odd post. Too bad they can't be as good as, say, Rutgers. What did they finish, 11th of B1G teams in the NCAA this year? With a whopping 8 points? Out of three NJ teams, they finished third behind Princeton and *Rider*!
  4. That is easy, you are correct. GB turns out to be horseshit. You can follow the links in https://www.queensu.ca/gazette/stories/5-failings-great-barrington-declaration to read more. Just an example.
  5. Good insight.
  6. 29 first period pins.
  7. Why would you assume or even think that is my view? I don't give a rat's ass what Max Dean does with his life. Just pointing out that your "start at 23 or 24" has long since passed for him.
  8. Max Dean is at least 25, married, and has a kid.
  9. I have no insight whatsoever into Penn/Princeton recruits who deferred. A bunch of Penn (and Drexel) guys competed at last summer's U23 freestyle, but only Colaiocco and Miller (5th and 4th place, respectively) placed.
  10. Penn: Ferrante, Zapf, Artalona, and Goldin are out of eligibility. Princeton loses their only real NCAA threats (Glory and Monday). They have Marc-Anthony McGowan and Tyler Vazquez as big recruits. Columbia loses Kazimir and Fongaro; most of the starters will be back. Army/Navy/Columbia/Penn have no or lower-ranked class of 2023 recruits.
  11. I know it was freestyle, but last June at the U23 WTT, Greg took third (pinned Columbia's Babin under a minute), losing to Noto 3-3 on criteria in the semis, then beat Ryan Miller (Penn) 10-0. Ungar did well but went 5-2 and didn't place. Ungar lost to Caleb Smith (NQ this year from Appalachian?) 7-3, and Greg beat Smith 10-0. Greg also beat Ventresca last year at the Scuffle.
  12. He was not on the Cornell roster this year, likely training at Spartan Combat. He just appeared in a team photo with the NCAA trophy, so he's still around. Probably can't beat Cornella at 141, and surely won't beat Shapiro at 149. He hasn't graduated.
  13. Cornell is pretty easy: 125: Greg D (back from surgery) 133: Vito, duh 141: Cornella 149: Shapiro (that's pronounce "sha-PIE-row") 157: Handlovic (finally at weight) 165: Ramirez 174: Foca 184: Loew 197: Cardenas 285: Fernandes
  14. Not that it will happen, but Cornell has four guys who would qualify: Vito, Cornella, Foca, and Cardenas. Ugh.
  15. Ben Darmstadt had 18 pins his freshman year. Guys stopped choosing bottom against him.
  16. In other words, "if things had been different, things would have been different." Excellent. And Chaz Tucker would like a word.
  17. It's like I kicked your dog or something. And don't deflect onto what I think. This is about *you*. A simple answer might have been "Those losses don't affect my perception of Spencer Lee's greatness." You might then proceed to explain *why*. But, hey...
  18. Where does Spencer's getting pinned twice and losing six matches figure into your calculations?
  19. $$$$$ I thought this was about Yianni.
  20. International goals: people seem to forget that somehow Dake got to be multiple world champion and Yianni got to the WC final while training at Cornell/Finger Lakes/Spartan Combat. Yianni is always giving credit to Mike Grey for his successes. I've noted that people on the PSU forum often say that the PSU graduates are "better" than those from Cornell, as well.
  21. For accuracy, Shapiro is spending his senior HS year training with Spartan Combat. He will be a true freshman in every sense of the word next year at Cornell.
  22. If he counted that, then Eierman would count for like eight alone. AAs: 2023: Demas, Murin, Van Ness, Sasso 2022: Sherman, Murin, Sasso, Lovett 2019: Red, Demas, Eierman, McKenna 2018: Meredith, Eierman, Heil
