I think NIL is tricky for foreign student-athletes. They come via a student visa, which technically does not allow them to work the same as a domestic student. I think this was in the news recently regarding a basketball player from Canada who could not participate in NIL

I just got back from the NCWA tournament and can confirm that coach Leeth is a class act. They asked him to speak about the importance of fundraising at the coaches meeting. TSU just had (what I think is) their first All-American (or one of their first) in this year’s tournaments. Hopefully their success at that level helps their fundraising efforts.

Pardon my ignorance, where is the PSU forum?

Somewhat related to the topic. Starocci’s B1G counts as 2 losses because he stepped on the mat twice? thanks in advance

Stoked for the “Aaron Brooks RS Fr” era…

Is there a reason for so many forfeits? Do teams need to weigh in here to be eligible for the Olympic qualifier next week? My apologies if I missed this elsewhere.

I believe Penn State lists the Covid year seniors on their last year of eligibility as a Senior+ if they are not a graduate student. That is how they listed Nick Lee for his last year.

Hello list, I was at an NAIA/NCAA D3/NCWA open this weekend. They had 4 mats going total and it was a long day. I saw some teams leave early and forfeit in the finals/consi finals (including a few of the double FFTs). Do those circumstances not count as a loss? I know that the first medical forfeit in an open counts as a loss now. thanks in advance.

At the Newberry Open (Newberry College, SC; NCAA D2) both of Newberry’s coaches are competing (149, 184) as a result of a fundraising challenge. I can’t help but feel as a fan of the sport that we need more of this! https://www.trackwrestling.com/opentournaments/MainFrame.jsp?newSession=false&TIM=1706461466768&pageName=%2Fopentournaments%2FBracketViewer.jsp&twSessionId=ecavakfdqi

According to this Cox is qualified: https://www.themat.com/news/2023/november/20/2024-u-s-olympic-team-trials-qualifiers-as-of-november-20

Doesn’t Cox’s medals from this past cycle qualify him?
