In addition to donor lists, I think living donors may be an option. I think they need to match Ben's blood type and have roughly similar sized lungs.

LOL. You are precious! You get called out for your nonsense, try to deflect, make personal attacks and go a bit crazy! I'm fine but not sure about you.

You're the one trying to dredge up old sh*t and I don't even know why you bring up Logan Ryan, nobody else did. Its like you are a spurned Iowa fan who still holds a grudge against Seth for leaving and having success elsewhere. I think Seth has commented on that night several times and he's the first to admit it wasn't his proudest moment and a learning lesson for him. But he's moved on and from all accounts has not gotten into trouble since and been a role model. You think SDSU would sign him, Wisconsin would sign and hire him as coach and MATPAC would sign him if they were concerned about his conduct? Geez, time for you to move on.

Ok, no response to my earlier question. I figured as much as the only stipulations not followed are either in your head or made no sense. Nobody would expect someone from out of state with a likely large scholarship to continue to enroll at a school when he's kicked off the team and likely now has to pay his own way. I think in Seth's case, if I recall correctly, the charges were later mostly dropped or made misdemeanors, but I think the legal process took time and maybe he didn't want to put his wrestling career on hold and couldn't easily afford to pay his own way and maybe didn't want to continue at Iowa given the circumstances. The other kid you refer to was from Iowa and may not have gotten much money at all and may have had little to lose by continuing at Iowa. I also think the kid you referred to only started a handful of matches, never qualified for NCAAS and otherwise had a relatively short-lived career. The situations appear very different. Perhaps, Brands didn't expect the success that Seth would have and was ok having him kicked off the team. Glad it all worked out in the end for Seth though. Hopefully, it will work out for Williams whether he stays or not in IC.

What stipulations are you referring to?

Who is PK? Patrick Kennedy is the only wrestler that comes to mind and I heard nothing of him being in the portal. Phil Knight is wrong sport and Paul Krause is a long retired NFL player. I have no idea what UNIC is, except for a castrated male and its spelled Eunuch.

Being charged with a crime doesn't make one an offender. Charges were dismissed. You just slandered someone and maybe you are the criminal here.

Charges were dismissed too. Original Poster "JimmySpeaks" is a douchebag.

Any national champs or finalists who were not top 16 seeds?

Of course it is. That is why the title of thread weightgate seems confusing as eligibility and weight seem entirely separate issues. Maybe, I'm missing something, but if the guy has used up his eligibility, why isn't it obvious to the Little Rock coaching staff and the team's opponents that he shouldn't have wrestled?

Thanks. Someone entitled thread Weight-gate? Seems really strange if the controversy is whether he was out of eligibility but yet still wrestled.

I see a couple threads about Brennan and even though I read about ten posts, I have no idea what the controversy is. Can someone provide a quick summary of what the controversy is as I saw a letter on twitter but unfortunately the print size was too small and I couldn't make it out.

Jordan Burroughs was 16-13 his first year.

He's already beaten Spencer Lee and he's at about the same level now, if he can handle the weight cut to 57. Fix is one of the better light weights and there are a handful of guys that are capable of winning 57 or 61. Fix absolutely should keep wrestling as long as he wants.

Completely disagree with this. Not much point to regular season if everybody is invited. You would just devalue the accomplishment of being a national qualifier for those that have done so in the past and those that would have done so without everybody getting a pass. I haven't even addressed all of the logistical issues created with so many entrants plus many more unwatchable matches. Just hand out participation ribbons to everybody. Kumbiya!
