  1. Maybe Iowa, maybe Oklahoma State, maybe both. His last name is Mocco. I doubt it is that long of a way to go.
  2. I really hope this isn't true-especially the Nelson Brands part. Really a difficult situation if so. But I agree that if they did place bets on Iowa, they should be banned from NCAA competition.
  3. There's objectively much less to do in the areas surrounding Columbus, Ann Arbor, State College, and Iowa City than the Bay Area, LA, and Seattle. The same is true for Utah, Oregon, etc, for those who like hiking/camping/the outdoors. That's just a fact.
  4. The market for running shoes is larger than the market for wrestling shoes.
  5. Why add wrestling? The money would be better spent on platinum plated golf carts for the football team
  6. I think a big thing for Cal, Stanford, and Washington is that there’s professional football in the Bay Area and Seattle. So nobody cares about college football. There didn’t used to be in LA, but now that there is, I wonder how that impacts USC and UCLA.
  7. There is no chance cal and Stanford get added to the big ten. The fact that they get research grants has nothing to do with how much money their football team generates. Nobody goes to or watches Stanford or Cal games. College athletics are about money and nothing else. I have no clue why they added that line about research partnerships. Maybe to make it seem like it isn’t just about money, which it is.
  8. Did this guy learn nothing from 8 years of college?
  9. Greed killed college athletics.
  10. Because the old place had stupid rules.
  11. Student athletes can influence the outcome of games. They therefore shouldn’t bet on them. Having an athletic scholarship is not a god given right.
  12. Those guidelines say permanent loss of eligibility.
  13. This is interesting. If all the ISU bets were prior to being an ncaa athlete he may be off the hook- unless some were done with inside info through affiliations among the athletes. In that case, ISU still might kick him out.
  14. They just made the rules notably less draconian for gambling. An exception is gambling on your own school, which is still a permanent ban. There’s zero excuse to do it.
  15. The victim is the counter party to the trade/bet.
  16. I don’t on the NCAA level. He bet 25 times on Iowa state events. I’d see an argument for reinstatement if all his bets were other schools, but he should be done. The rules on gambling are made very clear from day one of compliance meetings. He also knew it was wrong, which is why he concealed his identity.
  17. wrestler. Wow you're right. Looks like pinfall doesn't get edited though.
  18. This kid looked like a mix a DT, Cael, and then I saw the footsweep attempt, so he's definitely a Mocco. Most impressive highlight that I've seen in a while.
  19. Why do you think he would only be training part time? Based on what i've seen in the WWE clips, if anything I'd assume the WWE gig is part-time.
  20. What about if I want to refer to greco too?
  21. How do I refer to freestyle and folkstyle together? Gable was going to do both
  22. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_wrestling Should we just call it wrestling and hope people assume we aren't talking about the joke that is WWE?
  23. It seemed like he had realized WWE is heading in the Logan Paul/influencer direction and not toward the undersized elite athlete who needs a ton of acting development. It would make more sense to focus on amateur wrestling and MMA-two sports he will dominate.
  24. Here's the clip. This guy looks like a fish out of water doing WWE. I guess he's giving it one more try, but wow, that clip was not good. Here is how it's done:
