I think Bartlett and SVN both have a much higher likelihood of going 3rd or better than they do of going 4th or lower. A lot of AAs departed (Yianni, Murin, Yahya, Gomez) and may clear out more if Sasso goes up, and SVN is coming off of his first, only real season of collegiate wrestling. He's going to make additional gains this year. The only guy he's lost to that returns is Paniro, and he beat him resoundingly at NCAAs. Ridge returns at 149 but I think SVN might beat him in a dual, at B1Gs and at NCAAs. He took three higher seeds out at NCAAs with Paniro (5 seed), Parco (3 seed, 4th place) and Hensen (4 seed, 5th place). He's going to clean up some of that wildness and improve from neutral. Maybe he'll even learn how to sprawl at some point. Lovett returns, but while he's very good, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see SVN beat him. Bartlett is in a similar position. NCAA champ at the weight expected to take an OLY. Bartlett wrestles his own match; he's extremely difficult to score on and picks his spots. Went 8-3 against AAs last year, with losses to Hardy, Alirez and Woods. Confidence has to be really high right now with a 3rd place finish at NCAAs and taking Nick Lee to a 10-10 loss on criteria. Like I said in another thread, there are going to be some Top-10 level teams who would get shut out by PSU this year. Very few will get more than 2 wins. Iowa likely won't break into double digits at the dual, with Penn State taking every weight from 149 on up if Messenbrink goes.

Here’s a (open source) picture of a vehicle stolen from a Russian private citizen and modified for military use by Russian conscripts. There are plenty of examples of this. You’re telling me you don’t believe they are having trouble sourcing and producing military equipment, when THIS is happening? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm guessing there will be a recall petition started in the next 60 days. Not joking.

I was pleasantly surprised by how many people called them out. Not enough, but, again, a surprising number. There were a lot of people who felt compelled to bend the knee to Bob, though. I'm guessing Bob Nicolls rarely, if ever, apologizes.

Because he's "a socialist" and "soft on crime" and "equity".

Four people in my office just found out, and it's hilarious. All talking about moving to other states now.

They will be very, very good this year if everyone wrestles. I don't think there's a single team that scores more than 6 points on them in a dual, and there are some Top 10 teams that could get blanked. Robbie Howard is predicted by WS to take a lot of Ls, but he finally had surgery and is supposedly healthy. If he's good to go that hole at 125 could be very well plugged. Start at 125 and pray, because it's going to get worse, and worse, and worse from there.

He was labeled a socialist by his Republican opponent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Penn State: 125: Howard, if healthy, low AA. 7th-8th. 133: Nagao, top 3 141: BB, finalist 149: SVN, finalist 157: Haines, 1st 165: Messenbrink, top 4 174: Starocci, 1st 184: Truax, finalist 197: Brooks, 1st 285: Kerk, 1st Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You'd move up from 5th to 2nd or 3rd.

So, his official report doesn't recommend any new charges. Got it. I'll admit I was wrong about one thing. A single guy, Kevin Clinesmith, pled guilty a couple years ago. He's the single person who was charged and convicted of anything as a result of Durham's probe.

A verdict is something that a judge or a jury hands down. Given that one person has been charged by Durham, and found not guilty at that, I don’t believe I’ll take the words of Kash Patel at face value. Surely, if there are verdicts, there are charging documents, right? Where are those? When were the trails? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A report has verdicts? Even Kash Patel can’t be that stupid, right? Or, is he selling a pack of lies to idiots? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As I've said elsewhere (here? BWI?), it's great when guys are able to parlay their wrestling abilities into not one but two degrees. The three NU guys who transferred to Michigan? That's a win.

Hey man, Bob Nicolls just KNOWS that everyone on PSU (regardless of credentials, which is weird) is getting the "standard" 30k/month.

You strike me as a "I would have signed up, but I'd knock a Drill Sergeant out if he yelled at me" type.

Yet you call others soft and weak. I'm pretty sure you're the soft one, bud.

It's kind of weird that you are so cavalier about discussing a topic that you, by your own admission, clearly know very little about.

Tell me, LJB, how many people have you killed? You seem quite comfortable with the topic.

I didn’t say that. I’m simply pointing out that there would appear to be some limitations on what arms you could bear, legally. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
