Damn autocorrect. I do not think the Buckeyes should try too hard to land Askey. He is not a big improvement, and time would be better spent on other people that may show up in the portal.

Probably odd men out with Oakley and Gallagher

Buckeyes have Paddy Gallagher. One of them would need to go 165

Tell me about the McKenna shenanigans?

Any details that can be shared? I understand the situation is private.

I can't imagine this is true. Also, unsure if you're a troll. I think I have seen you defending AJ before.

What is this joke about?

If AJ Ferrari joins a team and gets in a room this summer, that punk is the favorite.

125 - Luke Lilledahl 133 - Ryan Crookham 141 - Jesse Mendez 149 - Andrew Alirez 157 - Meyer Shapiro 165 - Mitchell Messenbrink 174 - Keegan O'Toole 184 - Parker Keckeisen 197 - AJ Ferrari 285 - Yonger Bastida

https://www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu/postings/49390 Job listed as salary range SL4, meaning a range from $62k - $119k. Deadline for external applicants is 4/30. Also important, if interested reach out to Heather Cooper, Assistant AD for HR, pronouns she/her/hers.

Yeah, Snyder is an anomaly. I'm happy to admit I am wrong. Did Bastida and Davison weigh less than 230? And what did Caesar weigh? Aside from Snyder, we don't usually see college heavyweights go down to 97kg. Again, happy to admit I am wrong here, but I can't think of anyone. Even if you are small heavyweight, you commit to staying big and don't go down to 97kg. I hope Carroll looks great next week. I am a fan, I just thought he would be an immediate threat at heavyweight next year with a lot of guys graduating.

Concerning that your heavyweight is going 97kg. If he is not going heavyweight, then it is not concerning. Being small at heavyweight can be a liability.

Christian Carrol at 97kg is a bit concerning for Cowboy fans. That's awfully light for someone you want at heavyweight. Maybe Merrill is bigger than Carol, who knows

I saw Aden Valencia registered for Last Chance. How has this kid not qualified yet? He has been very good

Taylor has spent most of his career figuring out how to not get beat by Yazdani's underhook. He will be well adjusted to how Brooks hand fights. But also, just no. Taylor has not taken a step back. Although Brooks is improving, you cannot say Taylor is going to lose unless you think Taylor is in decline. Taylor at 2023 Worlds: r1)pin, r2)tech, quarters)tech, semis)pin, finals)pin

Why are we not speculating on who they will hire yet? I saw that Stutzman made $90k-$95k. How does that compare to the pay of top notch D1 assistant coaches out there who might want to apply for the job? For reference, and I only know this because I am a Buckeye fan, I know the assistants make $100k+

Because or the rise of AWA, is the Wisconsin job more interesting than it used to be to potential coaches?

So what is the real argument against Tom Brands and this new generation mantra? Just because PSU is different, does not mean you need to change, however they are not accomplishing their goals and it does seem like their guys plateau before their senior year. Is the intensity not necessary anymore because skill is so much higher? People just use PSU as the foil to Iowa and point fingers(and I am an Iowa hater) ie: Intensity vs. fun/gratitude.

What recruits? Davino is blue chip. We don't have a clue about 2025

2026 is the Buckeye's best bet. Kilkeary is going to challenge McCrone. Davino or Bouzakis need to go 141 so the other can be at 133. And Mendez needs to go 149. They need to get all of these guys in the lineup at once. As far as the 2025 recruiting class goes, landing Marcus Blaze would be great but it creates a logjam at the lower weights. I say you do it anyways. And Vince Bouzakis would fit in to the holes of the lineup as well(btwn him and Birden at 157, 165). They're gonna need true freshmen to produce. Maybe Tom Ryan redshirts Mendez, Rogotzke, Welsh and has them all for a 2027 run, but recruits will be important. A lot of talent in the 2026 recruiting class

You are ignoring my point. I am not complaining or being a hater. To only earn the right to wrestle at the Last Chance Qualifier when you win OTT is not right. There should be a competition in place to figure out who gets to go try to qualify the weight at Pan Ams. That is my point.

But it is a new year. Our 2023 reps at 57 and 65 did not earn USA a spot in the Olympics at 2023 worlds. They should have to compete for the right to be the rep at 2024 Pan Am OG qualifier. USA did a good thing with allowing medalists to challenge, but it didn't work. Most opted out. So let's change that to Senior Nationals. World team member from previous year gets the 1 seed. I do not think moving trials to before Pan Ams is ever going to happen, so I prefer the idea of making Senior Nationals the qualifier

That is why I think the schedule to qualify for the team could be adjusted or something can change. Why let wrestlers from previous year success be the ones our trials winners have to rely on to qualify the weight for Olympics? The Olympic Team Trials winner only earns the right to wrestle at Last Chance Qualifier. Maybe we add an incentivize at Senior Nationals and have the champ be the Pan Am rep?

A lot of Buckeyes wrestling Hawkeyes in the early rounds. It makes me uneasy.

So from what I can gather here, Anthony has been living with Bunji Fretwell in Florida and Anthony was there to help the local wrestling team. Anthony got mad at him and robbed him the fled Florida.
