Almost posted this same thing with a Forrest Gump pic. That's why it's wise to read the whole thread before ya post, less effect when you double down on the silliness. Nice work Chief.
"Wherever he wants him" ??? 133 would be just fine.
Much better than being a dumbarseI hate to be a smart@ss on the board, but this thread deserves it
On second thought, I really dont mind
EDIT: Bearslim beat me to it. EXACTLY what my dad said! lol
Update from FRL:
Iowa coaches visiting Desanto. Word is Iowa is still the lean with Rutgers and PSU in the mix.

I'm on the Safarov train! Let's get the Uzbek-Iowa pipeline going!
Safarov was discussed in another thread (NJCAA) and there seems to be some questions about whether his age is an issue with his D1 clock.
He is 27 years old. The question is whether or not your D1 clock of 5 years starts at a certain max age. I don't know the answer but some seem to think it does.
There have been football players who played college ball at age 27-28? Is it different with wrestling?
Eligibility clock starts once you enroll full time.
Eligibility clock starts no later than one year post high school or when you enter college, whichever comes first. Exceptions to the one year clock include military service and missions, but there may be others. So for 99% of wrestlers, they have one year to enroll into college and then five years to complete four years of sport. Medical hardship and Olympic participation are exceptions to the five year rule.

Being from a different country could be some sort of exception, maybe it started once he went judo..
I think Safarov wrestled at 133 in November or December but then was 125 the rest of the season. I question if he is large enough. But he may have my kind of old man strength.
Way too easy to look this up.
Division I five-year clock: If you play at a Division I school, you have five-calendar years in which to play four seasons of competition. Your five-year clock starts when you enroll as a full-time student at any college. Thereafter, your clock continues, even if you spend an academic year in residence as a result of transferring; decide to red shirt, if you do not attend school or even if you go part-time during your college career.

My bad, missed a w at the beginning, should be good now.
True, but there is a time limit as to when the clock starts for the 5 year window.
In the link you posted, the athlete asking the question had already been enrolled at a community college. I think that started his clock, not his graduation from high school.
Brandon Weeden played D-1 college football at the age of 28. His excuse was trying to make it in MLB baseball.
Pretty sure it isn’t just one year after high school to enroll. Fairly certain it starts at 21 whether enrolled or not. If you enroll prior to 21 then it starts.
Downey for example.
2011 HS graduate 18yrs
2 years at OTC
2014-started at NE, then ICCC 21years (redshirt)
15-ICCC NC
16-ISU AA
17-ISU DNC
18- tried to enroll at Iowa for last year of eligibility. 25 years old.
Just one example.
Other divisions are different.
