Looks like he started a firing petition of his own "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his 'reporting' that is shit. If he had two usernames and let one do his 'reporting' and the other be his social media handler (mind you he would have to get over his Rutgers hard-on, no disrespects towards Rutgers intended) everyone here would love his social media handler. The guy does push for what's obviously right when it is obviously wrong. You know what? Make that three handlers: - 'Reporting' - Rutgas - Social Warrior "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poorwrestler Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I hate to be that guy that always brings unrelated threads back to the subject of his own team, but… the gophers lightweight room just got absolutely cleaned out. Spratley, Nagao, Jamison all leaving so there’s no depth and little star power whatsoever. Eggum needs to get Joey Cruz, Wyatt Henson, Anthony Santaniello and/or Zan Fugitt on a visit and see if he can seal the deal with any of them. A team with a potentially elite group of upper weights coming in could actually make some noise if they were relevant at the bottom of the lineup too. Frustrating to watch unfold. Okay rant over back to Jason Leonard being pond scum. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would he be an AA talked about riding RBY hard 2x if he went elsewhere? He saw greener grass and dollar signs.

I know Northwestern's is a bit different as the guys who left were Grad Students and of the four gents Michigan got, only one has more than one year (there 'Free' Covid one) in Cannon, who has two (2) seasons of eligibility remaining. That said, they have three 125lbers on the roster, two are true frosh and one is an incoming redshirt soph who went 3-8 his redshirt frosh season at Buffalo. They have zero 133lbers on the roster and the covid stuff also screwed up their 149-165 lineups. You have Chumbley and Mayfield at 157/165 when one should be down at 149 - but having to wrestle a season up at 165 may have made it so Mayfield can't get back down to 149 as efficiently as originally planned. So now they have two decent 165lbers and nowhere for the one to go because 157 and 174 are also covered. Read that all in one breath, btw. That is how I imagined it being done.

SoonerKing Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I too feel for Zan and hope he ends up loving his year at OU and decides to stay. Our RTC is non existent though and has been. We had better guys competing before we had an actual RTC. It's sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holtfan Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Reading this reminds me of the whole fiasco surrounding Minkel's failure to release--I believe it was Nik Fekete--from his fifth season. Fekete (or whomever it was--I know someone will correct me if wrong) had already completed his degree, and needed to enroll in a graduate program to continue wrestling. The issue was--Michigan State didn't have the program available, so he couldn't stay if he wanted to......and Minkel refused to sign his release form allowing him to transfer to Lehigh (again, I believe...going off memory). Dick-move extraordinaire!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Hofstra....and even though it was a while ago, it still is probably the biggest dick-move by a coach--well, ever.  He couldn't stay at MSU, and he was leaving for a school that posed no threat to MSU. Minkel had no reason to hold up his transfer, other than he was just being a prick about it.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
