Ferrari isn’t a recruit. He’s a guy who trains at their RTC who lost to one of their wrestlers and gave the middle finger to their fans. He should comment on the situation in that respect.

Based on his last interview, Liberty U.

The world was a better place back then!

The accusation sounded like they were using racial slurs assuming he was a race that he wasn’t? Obviously it didn’t make sense though, but we can’t expect it to make sense

There was so much in those ten minutes, but I felt like accusing the fanbase of the team he wants to join of being racist deserved its own thread

Funniest thing I’ve seen on here in a while.

Ferrari just claimed that he was having racial slurs directed at him during the Soldier Salute from Iowa fans and that contributed to his reaction. He seems like a trustworthy guy, so I guess his actions were justified and all should be forgiven.

No way he passes a background check for it after one google search. He needs therapy, not the army, and it’s not the army’s job to fix him.

Perfect example of why you shouldn’t try to push your dreams onto your kids.

Really? This is an even bigger issue in the non-Western world than it is here. Except those places are more tolerant to abuse than the western world is, so the whole logic of shitting on the West is nonsense.

Absolute destruction.

Yeah, but what would the revenue have been for a conference consisting of the worst pac12 teams?

Look up what a hydrogen bond is. Water molecules condense in the gas phase and then come back down from the sky as they adhere to each other and transition to a liquid. We call the result of this process clouds/rain/humidity. CO2 does not form a liquid except at extremely low temperatures or extremely high pressures. Do you really think people are going to read the nonsense you are writing and say, "Oh yeah, water vapor! That disproves that CO2 is warming the planet!" No, the science makes perfect sense if you have even a high school-level understanding of chemistry and read the wiki on the greenhouse effect.

All that matters is football. I agree that it's crazy they took the deal, but they had no other choice. And when the ACC collapses, they'll have no choice but to start cutting sports. It's a terrible situation and Koll was smart to jump ship. I hope wrestling can survive.

When Florida State, Clemson, UNC, and Miami leave the ACC, that is going to be 30% of a much smaller number?

At what age and after how many warnings is somebody no longer considered a kid and allowed to be held accountable for his actions?

None of these allegations are actually new. It's kind of interesting that so much is being made of the unsealing of these documents when the reporting on it was already there previously. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey-epstein-new-mexico-ranch-official-says-there-is-a-story-to-be-told-in-new-mexico/ https://www.theverge.com/2019/8/9/20798900/marvin-minsky-jeffrey-epstein-sex-trafficking-island-court-records-unsealed https://www.thedailybeast.com/sleazy-billionaires-double-life-featured-beach-parties-with-stephen-hawking

I thought this was America. We didn't fight a war to repeal the 18th amendment to have these coaches ban drinking on campus. This is an outrage!

It's a significant overreach for a coach to police whether an athlete drinks or. not. Obviously drinking too much would hurt athletic performance, but some of the greatest athletes ever drink from time to time (this is an understatement). And of course, if you're showing up to practice or matches hungover, that is a problem. Should coaches decide whether athletes are allowed to have relationships? Obviously they would perform better if they only focused on school and wrestling. What about policing exactly what an athlete eats? Should a coach be allowed to create a rule banning eating certain foods? You really think people can't drink in their dorms? What do you think those minifridges that every college student brings to campus are for?

A test that adjusts on the fly would be much more difficult for me than one that does not. In the old SAT, I think getting one question wrong dropped your math score to like 760 or 770 because there were so many easy questions. If now there are a ton of difficult questions, that is by definition a more challenging test. Something else I liked about the old test was that I could do all the easy questions really quickly and then go back and spend more time on the couple of difficult questions in each section. If you have to answer everything now in order, I would find that much more challenging.

Why is somebody who doesn't drink the right person? Yes-at least they did a decade ago.

What point are you trying to make? If all water vapor stayed in the atmosphere instead of coming back down to land as rain/humidity, we would be totally screwed. CO2 is kind of hard to get back to earth once it's released.

There could be many reasons. 1. Differences in the way the scores are scaled (I'm sure this factors into it significantly). 2. More low-scoring people taking the test now than before, not because the average person is dumber, but because taking the test itself is encouraged. 3. More affluent people opting to take the ACT instead of the SAT. Also, if you go from 1972 to until today, the scores look fairly similar..I don't think much can be taken from seeing the average be 500 one year, 495 the next year, and then 510 a different year. That's a 1-2% difference.

There's no question about it at the top level because there's just much more competition now. It's like comparing any sport in the 1980s and 1990s vs today. Sure, the NFL/NBA/MLB all were more gritty back then, but the competition is significantly stronger now. The SAT has always been an easy test once it became widely used. You can't have a test that is meant for every high school student to take unless it is easy. It's not meant to be difficult-that's why it only covers math through algebra. I guarantee you that the AP Calculus BC, AP Physics C, AP Chemistry, Sat Math section II, AP US History, etc are still very difficult tests.

Despicable action. This guy should not be wrestling in the NCAA anymore. End of story To the legal minds of the forum-is Northern Colorado potentially financially liable for continuing to send this guy on the mat? Obviously, if you are injured wrestling that's a down side of what everyone signs up for. But not a case where you have somebody who is known to go beyond the rules of the sport-and has repeatedly done so- to inflict injury. Is this a situation that will go to court? Should Northern Colorado have known not to let this guy put on their singlet? https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/sports-violence-lawsuits.html
