Fixed it for you.

Oh Please. Neumann didn't leave the program in terrible shape and there was no impact on the sanctions that was essentially "we are watching you closer" based mainly around the archaic NCAA rules. Of course Manning has improved and built on what was before him but the cupboard was bare either.

I don't get the Norman at 184 thing either unless he has spent the year filling out. Agree, Minto is probably better at 184 than Norman but Minto probably scores more points at 174 than combination of Norman at 174/Minto 184 considering the depth at 184.

Is Brian Shaw the new Jawn Cena??

If you need to make up a new fact pattern then you certainly did nail it! If you are still confused Yes, this is what being triggered looks like by the phrase the built not bought.

If you have an issue with some one else then you should take it up with him and stop responding to me. Or go take your strawman argument to someone who cares, I wasn't bitching about teams buying guys and never have so I don't really care what has gotten you so upset.

Okay, then I am lost again. You are clearly triggered by the built not bought phrase, which I find hilarious. How that turned into a Nebraska v. Iowa thing in your head, I will never know.

I honestly had no idea it was the Iowa fans that took such offense to the built not bought phrase. Okay makes sense, now I get all the "whining" about it.

Thanks! I don't follow HS that closely so it was just surprising.

Whoever goes 149 for VT should pose a good challenge to Sergio if he goes up.

Was VRob not a highly touted recruit? This is even more of reason why it it surprising he is leaving. They took someone no one else wanted and made him a NCAA champ as a freshman. Crazy to leave that environment.

LOL indeed. Who is trying to have it both ways besides JaJenson? I doubt Nebraska cares that they said it after last season and are buying transfers now. Is it some mantra that they say all the time now? It is hilarious that saying phrase "built not bought" has caused so many people to whine and cry that they are now paying to bring in transfers. "But but but that one time they said built not bought "

Let's me get this straight, you are bent out of shape because when Manning said it was true but now they are buyers it is no longer true. So now that he has grown their NIL budget after doing something never done in school history, you think he should avoid using NIL to make his team better?? And who is the whiner?

He is officially in the portal. The current rumor is he is going to Nebraska but there is nothing official or confirmed. Even though Nebraska is the rumor, what will happen when Iowa or Michigan throw even bigger money at him?

Not AJ. He had his worst finish ever.

If you could get VRob for a comparable price as they were paying AJ, that is a no brainer.

In some ways it should be a good sign that kids didn't go in already knowing where they are going, like when they go in with a do not contact label and then show up a the new school 3 days later. I never think those deals are on the level.

If we are taking about which State is the best, should we even include the teams that don't compete in the PIAA or NJSIAA? As you noted, LL was a Missouri kid recruited to compete in a school that just happens to be in PA. I don't ask the question to put more work on it just the philosophical question since I think when we debate which state is better, we typically mean which state championships are harder to place at or win. At least that's how I have always thought of the question, but I could be the minority.

Ridge and Caleb Smith mentioned McCrone was on visit during their radio/streaming show.

Stanford needs to find high level wrestlers that are smart enough to get into Stanford but not smart enough to graduate in 3 years. These smart and motivated kids are hurting the wrestling program!

Is starting mealiness April Fools threads any different than Jimmy posting troll threads?

Cael probably gave him 1 of his 3.

Blaze wrestled his consi semi and only MFF his placement match. Ryder finished 8th and only MFF the placement match. I think just the Ferrari's and Echemendia were the only 3 to MFF out of the consi semis. And the Ferraris were the only ones to lose their semifinal (Ech won 2 matches in the consolations on Friday night) and then MFF out of the tourney.

Tony Ramos's X/Twitter has been very pro Iowa lately.... Telford out, Ramos in?

Respect to Younger for calling him out but this all seems fake to try and get hype for a paid match on RAF. We just watched Younger destroy him, nothing is going to change. Let Younger face some better competition and AJ can wrestle one of those YouTube/social media personality matches instead.
