  1. I bet that these figures floating around are most likely inclusive of tuition, housing, use of cars from some local dealership, etc. Tuition, room, and board for out of state at Iowa is just about 50K.
  2. Grant McKay from Pitt to Gannon (Gannon already has had several former D1 wrestlers on their squad)
  3. 2nd: 44/48 3rd: 48 4th: 52 5th: 58 6th: 64 7th: 70 8th: 80 9th: 103 10th: 103 11th: 112 12th: 125 College Club: 133
  4. I had not seen these before, but apparently he's been in the portal since Octorber: Diego Sotelo from Harvard could be a great pickup for someone. I'm gonna throw out Illinois because he's from there and it's an excellent school. Any other thoughts?
  5. Yes that's a great point. Those that may not make the cut at the power five schools can most likely find another home. It's a nice start to the weekend for the Phillies to beat the Dodgers and for this misunderstanding of my to have been resolved.
  6. If that's the case (which I don't doubt despite your username) then this entire thread has been created on the basis of a false premise. And for that I apologize.
  7. Part of me worries that for some of the smaller programs, a larger roster (where most did not have scholarships) could be seen as a positive for school revenue. capping off like these could make it more difficult for smaller programs like Sacred Heart (who has always held a large roster) to stay viable. I worry about the impact of then schools closing programs because of worse funding situations when we are already up against it in that regard.
  8. Using WrestleStat rosters, we are due to lose 398 D1 wrestler to another division or perhaps from the sport altogether. I wonder how many will seek to transfer to another program (perhaps in a lower division)? I would think it would be a shame if the net result from these restrictions would be to lose 14% of all current D1 wresters. These are also people that could be supporters and boosters in the future, depending on how their experience goes.
  9. https://www.flowrestling.org/collections/6752213-the-bader-show-clips/video?playing=14040846 He comes across really personable and relatable. I had a similar but far less sever story and I'm sure many other former weight cutters do as well. For me it wasn't t-bone steaks though - I ate a few slices of pizza (I know - very dumb)
  10. rumor that TJ Stewart may be joining AJ and Kysen in Chapel Hill
  11. https://www.instagram.com/p/DICfKNSSgIp/ Zach Redding to NC State Suggests he will be back down at 133 next year! Vincent Robinson Zach Redding Ryan Jack Koy Buesgens Jackson Arrington Derek Fields Matty Singleton Dylan Fishback Andrew Macchiavello (or portal) Isaac Trumble
  12. Bill Belichick has a big appreciation for wrestlers. I wonder if he ever joins recruiting trips for other sports to inject a bit of star power
  13. I want to see Amos fully healthy, fully fed, and boiling with rage against some big oaf that he will chop in half
  14. but he's done 197 so many times and he looks like a zombie. if he doesn't have a whole new cutting program in mind, this seems like a mistake.
  15. reading on buckeye forum that the Chittum addition (which felt unnecessary to me IMO prior to Herman and Hepner joining the portal) may be in question.
  16. moving passed the nitwit - I think its safe to say Ferrari to Wisconsin right now seems improbable.
  17. JimmySqueaks.. another fart out of his mouth
  18. You should run and hide from Seth Gross if you're so horrified by him. Good Lord
  19. I don't care enough to search for it. He doesn't need need any judgment from me.
  20. didn't his "criminal offense" amount to underage drinking and potentially use of cannabis? pretty common and hardly what we would consider a significant red flag for a young person. sorry I shouldn't have even responded to that
  21. Not a bad replacement for Moore for this year. Moore seems to be more focused and consistent, but Terukina has his moments.
  22. My sense is that its a lot less calculated than we think from the outside. I think its more subject to spontaneity, chance, and happenstance than can be imagined. Relationships and human emotions are unpredictable by nature so I think it's hard to say that teams are making some sort of calculation. I think the primary calculation is to get directionally better which means always being open to wrestlers who might want to try out for the team
