Its not just "some flexing" its who & what he (and they) are doing such to, showing no respect for others. Such lack of respect then shows up off the mat in the form of pulling a gun on someone and rape.
I keep seeing you guys talking about pulling a gun or shooting up a house, but the charges were misdemeanor assault and battery charges. That doesn't add up.

For the most part I do agree with this wholeheartedly, but I think some nuance applies.
If a kid steals from Walmart, of course they should get a second chance.
If a kid gets blackout drunk at 18, pees on a wall, and then vandalizes a car, of course they deserve a second chance.
When you start talking about the sexual assault and rape I think you start to get in that nuanced area because someone else is involved. If the allegations are true, the woman in the situation will spend the rest of her life living with what happened. It’s not something she can just get over and move on with life.
Did Brock Turner deserve a second chance at swimming after his 6 month sentence? I’d argue he did not.
This sounds very similar to the Gable Steveson situation after his RS freshman year. Let's see how it plays out before comparing someone to Brock Turner.

Someone on HR alluding to a Bouzakis and Poznanski transfer as well. That would make things interesting.

Anthony is facing assault and battery charges.
I have a hard time believing the shooting rumors with these charges. AJ is more of a worry, IMO.
"Two misdemeanor assault and battery charges have been filed against former Stillwater High School wrestler and former Oklahoma State signee Anthony Ferrari, the younger brother of AJ Ferrari."

Iowa - thank you so much for the "ha ha" emoji. Glad you find that funny - me too! What I really find HILARIOUS is how quickly the eyeglass destroyer went viral NATIONWIDE! Now that deserves 100,000 + "ha ha" emojis!
Make it a great day chief!

He called Mohammed a false prophet. That may be his truth but it’s also a diss.
Would you be fine with a Jewish or Muslim wrestler who used his speech to say “don’t worship Jesus, he is no god or savior”? They are just speaking their truth too, so it’s all good?
I wouldn't care just like I don't care about what Brooks said.

Luckiest ever? Probably not. Luckiest this weekend? Absolutely.
Also, LOL at the dude claiming there is no such thing as luck. That's a top-self idiotic statement lol.

The thought of having an opportunity to win 5 NCAA titles does not sit right with me. Other student athletes lost a year and only had 3 attempts at winning a national title while someone else received an extra year because of it. Its the NCAA who caused this problem and not the athletes but still does not sit right with me. As a whole NCAA wrestling is a fantastic product with many generational talents as high school wrestling seemingly continues to produce higher level wrestlers each year. Brooks and Starocci must be added to the all timers list but many like Ruth, Quentin Wright, etc. get overshadowed because of their lack of production post collegiate carrier which is unfair.
I could be wrong, but I believe Carter has said before that he's not interested in going for five. That could change, but I honestly don't see what he gains in terms of GOAT talk going for the extra title. It's not like Cael or Dake wouldn't have won 5 if given the fifth year to compete.

The irony keeps piling up. Not only did I use ironic correctly, but you incorrectly posted an article about the incorrect use of irony. Are you starting to see the irony? I doubt it.
The link works just fine for me, so no idea what you're talking about. You're also still not using the word correctly, but whatever, dude lol. The fact is the Big Ten schedule costs a lot of its wrestlers' seeds. This isn't anything new and for you to dry and deny it is weird.

Ironic that you say you can't look at one situation and then look at one situation.
I am not looking at one situation. I am looking at the totality of all situations. And when you do that you see that Big 10 wrestlers get seeded higher in spite of their loses.
I think you need to look up the definition of irony because you aren't using it correctly: Is Ironic The Most Abused Word In English?
Either way, I literally took the first weight. Do you think Orine gets the 5 seed at 133 wrestling a BT schedule? How about Henson at 149? Think he's only losing 3 times wrestling Sasso, Gomez, Yahya, Murin, Van Ness, etc? I don't

Think about that for a second. The post I was responding to said that the Big 10 gets screwed by wrestling each other, but Brooks' lose was a non-conference match.
You can't look at one situation and apply that to every bracket.
Hell, let's just take a look at the first weight. Do you really think guys like Stevo and Caleb Smith would be the 5 and 6 seeds had they wrestled a big ten schedule with Spencer, Cronin, Ramos, McKee, etc? I certainly don't.
You can find examples of these types of seeds in nearly every bracket, hence the "Big Ten beats each other up and affects their seedings" argument.

Iowa's seeds were all relatively as expected and fair. This tournament seems to get tougher and have more parity every year. That might be a result of the free years given to the COVID group. There are 3-4 top guys at most weights that are seniors this year that would have typically left the field after last season. Remove the group of hammers below from the field and it probably looks much more in line with past NCAA tournaments.
125 - Spencer, Cronin, Courney, Cardinale
133 - RBY, McGee, Phillipi
141 - Hart
149 - Yahya, Millner, Murin, Zapf
157 - AOC, Humphries, Gfeller
165 - Monday
174 - Labriola, Smith, O'Reilly, Romero
184 - Coleman, Romero, Finesilver, Bolen
197 - Nino, Dean, Laird, Warner
HWT - Parris, Schuyler, Hilger, Orndorff
Why are people taking this as only Iowa getting screwed by the BT schedule? It's the entire conference, and the FRL crew talking about this in depth this week.
It's real and I can't help but LOL at the morons suggesting Big Ten teams make their non-conference schedule even harder. That's some logic right there!

I could care less who Iowa wrestles but if you think wrestling the current ~#60 to #80 teams is challenging then maybe keep the rocketship in the hanger.
Wait, you think Iowa is wrestling the top 60-80 teams? WTF are you talking about?

Maybe Tommie should fire up the rocketship and fly out west to wrestle those goons.
So you want Iowa to wrestle a weaker schedule? If you can't agree that Big Ten teams get screwed by wrestling and beating up on one another during the season, you're lying to yourself.

Look forward to it. I expect this will reinforce all sides' views.
The coaches will come across as intense and engaged and deeply committed to their athletes. The athletes will come across as dedicated, earnest, extraordinarily hard working fine young men grateful to be part of this great program.
But this great senior class falls short of its potential, due to inordinately high instances of injuries and an inability to find a higher gear in the biggest matches.
I expect that iowa fans will see noble efforts thwarted by bad luck (covid costing them the 2020 title and injuries out of anyone's control blowing up 2022).
Non Iowa fans will see uncreative overtraining leading to injury and an inability to adapt and score needed takedowns against top competition.
This can't be disputed.

Only matched by Sebastian Rivera at the college level when Spencer was battling mono.
FIFY
Seabass definitely didn't look like he matched Spencer's strength the year before when he lost 7-3 and then 12-0.

Moreover, won an Olympic gold in college another 4 years later never lost folk or free during that time. Smith won a World gold in college but did lose a couple matches each style. Gable was only 2x but perhaps still trumps RBY as might a couple others. I'd said RBY is fighting for 3rd at best.
Lol, perhaps. This thread is hilarious.
Where will AJ and Anthony Ferrari end up?

Do you know what a misdemeanor is? You don't shoot into a house and get a misdemeanor. Even in Texas or Oklahoma lol.
