How does anyone give what Minnow says any creditably? Let's think about. He wants us to believe: 1) the AD at Wisconsin has an open door policy and will just take meetings with club coaches of non revenue sports whenever asked? Ben isn't getting past the secretary who has no idea who he is and even if Ben has a direct line to the AD, that AD is managing 20 some sports and isn't taking the time out of his day for a bitch session. 2) That Ben scheduled this meeting to bad mouth Bono and then told it to enough people that Minnow got a hold of it? "Hey guys, I am going to Madison to trash Bono, go tell who ever you want" Minnow is just throwing stuff against the wall. Since Wisconsin hasn't fired Bono yet they probably don't plan to so why not make stuff up and hope people believe him. Kind of pathetic.

Congrats on the new NIL deal Barlett, way to renegotiate!

As mentioned, MSU has a much better history than what they are producing. But Minkel was so bad at the end that is looks like Chandler has made improvements. (It helps to follow a coach who got negative points at NCAAs). It just seems like apathy has sent in at every level. Chandler was on staff at the end, how much has really changed? Even the wrestling room condition just seems like an excuse. Every coach talks about being a fundraiser as part of their job. If it sucks, change it. It's clear the Administration doesn't care about the results. The coaches/boosters/alumni seemed to have accepted it as well. If only the administration would give them a good wrestling room, things would be different...

Are we assuming Forrest and Bassett go to PSU?
Dogbone replied to 1032004's topic in College Wrestling
Did how Spencer's career finished, end up hurting Iowa's image? They finished 5th this year, in large part due to the unforeseen and unique to them gambling suspensions, were runner up last year and Champs the year before. Spencer had a great career just not what he wanted. My point is looking at the results they are a a top team and Basset style/aggressiveness has that Iowa Style look to it. I guess I am just surprised he isn't considering them. If Spencer went 6/1/1/1 and Iowa won it his last year, does Bo think differently of Iowa? -
True Freshman in every sense. There is no such thing as a wrestling "true freshman". Should we make NCAA wrestling an "age level" competition so we can stop judging the appropriate age everyone must be to compete?

Chamizo will be going to the Last Chance Qualifier. He claims its due to corruption. Sure seems like a bad call to me.

Piles mentioned Mesensbrink specifically (probably becuase Ben told him) and Ryan's response was "yes, we have looked in the portal! Never said we haven't" Ryan's issues seems to be they are getting outbid in the portal and he would rather have unlimited NIL than 9.9 scholarship. None of that has anything to do with Piles original statement. TR is probably projecting his frustrations after watching PSU set the scoring record.

I am not sure, but Bear Claw did wrestle both 165 and 174 this year and beat Turley at 174 so there could be some flexibility if that comes to be.
-
Bono has a few years left on his contract and Wisconsin doesn't care enough to pay the buyout.
-
The Bearclaw rumor was he was going to transfer to ASU.
-
Assign each guy a color, put two balls in a bag and then grab one of it. Color of the ball grabbed gets top half. Has to be plenty of those laying around somewhere.

Isn't no show the only real option. It has to be 99% he no shows and 1% he shows.

Oops. Missed @BloodRound thread that was before mine. Apologies.

Penn announced that Matt Valenti will succeed Reina after 1 year as a coach in waiting. https://x.com/PennWrestling/status/1775901141735485946?s=20 https://x.com/PennWrestling/stat us/1775901141735485946?s=20

Is Michigan likely because they prefer 1 year mercenaries or is there any actual intel that he is looking there? Everyone thought Hamiti was Michigan as well but he picked OSU very quickly.

Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary

Now there you go bringing facts into this... -
Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary
Dogbone replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
Ego run amok!?! DC asked him the question. JB didn't select the timing. -
Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary
Dogbone replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
No Tony Romo would of done it before the ball was snapped Every single color guy is asked questions like "what would you do here?" DC did that and JB answered. Fairly common, and not every color guy is making it about themselves. Some people don't like JB, which is fine, but him doing his job is not making it about himself. -
Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary
Dogbone replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
I don't think basketball players are known for their toughness so now I get why people are upset if that is their standard. In football, every time a corner goes down the announcers/former QBs say they would go after the backup. If a Dlineman doesn't seem 100% they say they would attack that side of the field. I guess every commenter/QBs who does football games makes it about themselves too according to basketball announcers. MMA Color guys are consonantly talking about how they would attack a guy. It is there job, same for JB and DC. -
Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary
Dogbone replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
No. But he is being "criticized" here because DC asked him a question and he gave an honest answer. I guess, Bo and the PSU crowd can't enjoy having two 4-timers and setting the team record so they need to whine about something. Seriously, it was one throw away line that wouldn't have gotten much attention until Bo decided to call it out. JB is a ruthless competitor, he isn't trying to be miss congeniality and well liked by his peers. But he is good for the sport. Feel free to criticize him, just have an actual complaint and not "his answer to the question wasn't nice and made my feelings hurt" because people are pushing back on that one. -
Bo has issues with Burroughs’ commentary
Dogbone replied to TNwrestling's topic in College Wrestling
Last year, Gabe Arnold got into with Starocci on X when in HS and Starroci took issue with it, now Starocci is calling out JB (for answering a question on the air) before accomplishing anything on the senior level... Hypocrisy much. -
I get that Burroughs may be too old now, but lets not pretend that he couldn't of won a challenge tournament to make a team after 2011, he just didn't have to. He sent Dake and Taylor to different weight classes. These are just the list of guys in the challenge tournament which always has multiple time NCAA champs. If JB loses it will be to to father time, not because he had to go through a bracket with Jarrett Jacques in it.
-
There are 2 World Champs in the 74 KG bracket. We can't even get the dang 65 KG weight qualified. The cut may be too much for him but the decision seems very logical.

Do they still do this one? I just checked and it appears the last one was in 2020 or does Rudis put a different one out on a non-Apple platform?
