  1. He had his contract extended 5 years through 2031. But that was under the previous AD. I don’t know if the powers that be care enough about an underperforming wrestling program to buy out his contract. We do have a new AD, so maybe there is some hope there. I also don’t know about what type of donors they have and if there is an appetite for buying him out. Whoever the next guy is, I hope it’s someone on good terms with Askren. That’s huge in terms of recruiting in state.
  2. Has Ono wrestled internationally since coming to Penn St? Is he planning on making a run at the Japan Olympic team? Seems like he’s hurting his freestyle chances wrestling folk in the US.
  3. South Korea seems to have fallen down a few notches in the last 10 years or so. They used to have multiple medalists each cycle (a bit more in Greco), now they seem much less competitive.
  4. Already mentioned here but Bryan Snyder, Tyrone Lewis, John Trenge immediately come to mind. Mike Poeta is up there.
  5. As far as Stanford and Valencia go, why is his ceiling at 2 when he already has reached 1? Minor nitpick in an otherwise great overview.
  6. Dylan at his poetic best, Mark Knopfler on guitar, it has a hypnotic quality to it with a reggae influenced rhythm, biblical/political metaphors. This song is a masterpiece for me.
  7. Ever read Camp of the Saints by Jean Raspail?
  8. Lee looked firmly in control until his arm got hurt. He did come back and I don’t know if he actually got injured or if it was more of a quick sting type of thing. But after that sequence he didn’t look the same, so I think it’s hard to say that he is worn out and his days are behind him.
  9. I guess that begs the question, Basset, Henson and Shapiro?
  10. Maybe it’s obvious, but I’m going to go ahead and ask who Johnny is?
  11. They just brought Tanelli in a year ago. Something must have been very wrong for it to end this quickly.
  12. I ended up getting WRE04 and 08. WRE04 greco 77/97kg semis, 60/130 kg medal matches, women’s 53 kg semis and 50kg medal matches WRE08 free 57/86kg semis, women’s 62kg semis, Greco 67/87kg medal matches, women’s 57 kg medal matches Wanted to get freestyle medal matches but nothing I could find.
  13. How was the ticket buying experience? I got selected to buy in a slot tomorrow so looking for any pointers. Wrestling tickets seem fairly reasonable.
  14. I’m no fan of the “elite” network effect these schools have and promote, but what’s your solution, cut the program? Might as well cut the Ivy League and others while your at it.
  15. How did the cornhuskers let a Nebraska kid like him get away?
  16. I just bought a day pass for sling tv
  17. Same here. Any other options out there?
  18. Starting with 165 match there is an ad for the ncaa wrestling championship blocking the video of the championship right in the center of the screen!
  19. Man, Valencia gave it everything. I thought he might gas out, but he pulled it off. That was awesome.
  20. I don’t even have the option to give them more money. It says I don’t even have access to buy espn.
  21. The problem with YouTube is you can’t really pause for long or rewind. This is BS.
  22. Got it up on YouTube
  23. What are other options to watch?
  24. Nice turn around for American who had 0 qualifiers last year. In addition to Campos achieving AA, Leete was round of 12.
