I was looking into this HOF and their credentials. Does anyone know what exactly self-identified means in this context? Does this mean you claim and you are a member of one of the recognized groups?

I think a lot of the bigger programs have in house advisors for athletes with significant NIL deals. They don’t want athletes getting in trouble with taxes and etc. one thing I’m wondering is for big-time prospects how long until the state’s tax laws start becoming a recruiting advantage. I believe TN, TX, and FL don’t have state income taxes. I saw when the QB from TN transferred to UCLA, that even though the deals were similar in total amounts (2 vs 1.75 million/year) because of CA income taxes his take home is much, much less in CA than what it was. Probably only a football and basketball issue though.

I thought I heard something on a podcast that alluded to an injury. is he planning to go to 92 or directly to 97? I’ve heard that 97 for the next Olympics was the goal. Going directly to 97 would be interesting with Snyder in the same room. With respect to the other suggestion, can’t you look it up if someone is out of the testing pool?

A pharmacologist and a wrestling coach here. The muscle loss (sarcopenia) associated with this drug would likely negate any advantage for an athlete competing at a high level. One of the unanswered questions is what happens once you come off these drugs? Some of the companies that make them are trying to get a “childhood obesity” or similar label in the thoughts of people needing to be on them for life. As an aside. Has anyone seen anyone use these drugs and lose weight and look healthy afterwards? The folks I’ve seen on them all have an unhealthy “sucked down” appearance.

I consider myself an educated person, but not in criminal law. Before this thread I honestly never really understood why time was taken off of sentences for good behavior. It does make more sense to me now as an incentive to maintain order in prison. Thank you for pointing that out the way that you did.

Anyone have insight as to what happens after a transfer? The wrestler that is leaving still has to finish the semester’s classes. Are they barred from practices until the term ends? Classes are probably less of a concern now with all the online options, but I’m curious if anyone has any knowledge here. Thanks in advance.

HS: 275 (PA did not have 215 until a few years after I graduated) college: 285, 197, 235 (NCWA) made it to 198 last summer on a dare!

We just got back a few weeks ago from the NCWA national Tournament, and Tarleton had a great showing. Teams that are moving to the NCAA or NAIA can compete in the NCWA postseason prior to being eligible for their new league’s postseason (Bellarmine did this last year), but Tarleton is not listed on the NCWA website as a transition team. So I guess they are a few years away from setting that up. I do wonder what conference they are anticipating joining. I believe they are part of the Texas A&M system.

Sorry to be late to this party. Did Gable get a stalling DQ in the second round last night? I was called back into work before I could see 197 and 285. Thanks in advance!

PSU fan (and alum) PSU will always be #1 ISU fan (and alum) current #2. Dresser was just getting started when I graduated and I like what he’s doing. I went to tOSU as well, and root for them when it’s not against PSU

I’m not sure if anyone has brought this up yet, but a good cap to a career by Gavin at Lock Haven this season. 15-2 record, a conference championship and another NCAA tournament bid.

This is a great question. Does post season format prohibit this?

Didn’t one of the Nevills play football while wrestling at PSU?

It’s a shame we can’t see a super fight type match between the Midlands and Soldier Salute champs. The timing could work.

Agreed. It’s also hard to find at a reasonable price outside of California, or at least has been for me in Iowa and Tennessee.
