I missed that. At least the French helped us against the British in the American Revolution. Belarus would be far less welcome on a singlet lol. But I'm not actually upset about it - I was just surprised by it. I guess respect for another person can transcend politics in a way that I should be happy about.

I'm not a very patriotic person, but wearing a French national jersey is kinda weird during an American World Team Trial tournament...

Olguin back down to 165 then I suppose

Wow great move! But what does that mean for weight class?

If Bono starts next season as coach, someone is asleep behind the wheel

Thanks and noted! I think its a great fit for him and whoever called out that he would prioritize academically strong institutions for his next landing spot was correct.

Askey I could see fitting in well. Regarding Oakley - if they brought him on board, would the plan be to redshirt Tyler Wells?

They should hone in on Rylan Rogers for 184 and Evan Bockman for 197.

Fish beat Julian Ramirez in the first round of NCAAs in 2023. This past year his best wins were over Cam Amine, Garrett Thompson, and Noah Mulvaney

OK State now has zero holes and lots of depth 125: Spratley 133: Hughes / Blankenship 141: Jamison / McComas RS 149: Williams / Young 157: Travis 165: Fish 174: Hamiti 184: Plott/ Thompson RS 197: Surber / Carroll 285: Doucet / Merrill RS

Absolutely. I was happy to see him in the portal. Any thoughts on where he could land?

I believe there are many shades of grey in understanding and assumptions when it could come to something like this. Robinson could have believed he was coming when that was never an explicit intention. And maybe that's okay on both sides.

"Last impressions are lasting impressions" and in spite of winning the title all I can remember is that snot hanging

Exactly

I think Ethan Oakley would fit in well on the West Virginia lineup

Yep he was a freshman NQ for the Bulls. It also makes me reflect on the immense success Lock Haven has had in the portal recently. Noto, Henson, Bassett, and now Stampoulos. In this age of everyone whining about the disadvantages of being a small school, they seem to he doing just fine.

One of the participants on the women's freestyle side is one of my daughter's coaches, so we will certainly be spending the six bucks

@ionel btw you've got quite the rotation of avatars going!

Not a bad choice! There was some chatter on the Virginia Tech boards about whether or not Seidel would stay committed given this change. Apparently he was quite close with or fond of Brewer.

Good luck to him. Wonder who will replace him at VT

I also saw on the Rutgers forum that someone cited Mineo's breakfast sandwich tweet as a reason to expect Hendrickson may come to Rutgers. The poor sap!

you know I'm partially messing with you @Le duke, but its only because your bias is so strong its fun to be a diehard fan. many of my best friends are homers of one sports team or another. for me, I am a homer, but its harder to tell, because it's not for a team, its for guys who wrestle a certain style or come from a certain area.
