Unless you want to go down the donor dinner rumor mill, the most likely story is he wants to go back closer to his wife's family and didn't love coaching enough to continue to make the sacrifice.

I actually thought Pinto looked better at 174 once he got acclimated to the weight. He always seemed a little puffy at 184. Haines was coming up from 157 so while I think he filled out the weight well, I don't know if he was the biggest 174 either.

UNC is a good school but its not impossible to get into. Has admissions standards similar to Michigan and other top B1G schools. Plus they make exceptions for really good basketball players, I am sure they can get AJ in, who probably has a respectable transcript. I assume UNC main donor/NIL person s the guy that lured Koll to comback. I haven't seen the rumor of AJ's deal, but I would almost bet its going to be inflated more than his actual deal.

Interesting. Iowa was the speculation ever since he took his Medical year and they need a 197. All of the other contenders don't really need a 197 (to my knowledge) so it could Iowa or bust.

Thanks Mr. PB

This isn't how Friday afternoon new dumps are supposed to work....

More smoke:

But will we get an update on his deadlift or a new split double ::hand gesture:: as part of the announcement??

My bad.

What does that mean? Not hating but when I think of Dake I think 4xer, went up every year in college, stuck behind a legend on the international scene before breaking through and winning worlds. Kueter can be a world champ but curious why you used Dake as the comp?

PSU's Eric Gibson -174 is in the portal

Not every Nebraska star is B1G caliber. Obviously Trumble is and they did go after him, just lost the recruiting battle.

Holy Strawman, Batman... Saying the word "fact" before making a statement doesn't actually make it true. What are you talking about?? Not one person has accused PSU of a rule violation or a massive conspiracy, including myself, who just challenged the ridiculous notion that Rocco is only getting some minimal NIL deal that all PSU athletes get. Just because you offer less than somone else doesn't meant PSU is offering nothing or the minimum deal everyone else gets. Cael recruiting over Ryder isn't a crime, rule violation or conspiracy, but it is a fact because it actually happened.

What "facts" point this this???

Nebraska did go after Trumble, but were a little late and couldn't make up the ground NCSt had made by getting in early. Nebraska HS talent has come a long ways recently but it wasn't good enough for the first 20 years Manning was in Lincoln to build a strong B1G team. I don't think they did not want NE kids but they probably were defaulting to the areas where they had built strong recruiting ties over the local scene that hadn't historically produce D1 AAs regularly.
