Starting to think it's the "oral of Carl."
I remember Phil Hartman [impersonating Sinatra] using the 'chunks in my stool' line back in 90's SNL as well. Back when I used to watch more.
What he said.Great point, and Warner is a stud, no doubt. I personally love who we have coming in, but there is always something in my head asking, "how in the hell are they getting it done"..
Let's just stay in our lane, focus on the studs we have in house and the ones that are coming the next two falls and watch them win a few titles! Independent of what PSU is bringing in.
That's exactly where I got it from. The Sinatra Group skits. I don't know how to link to youtube, but go there and search "You don't scare me - Phil Hartman"
Are u the new pr man for Penn State now? Thanks for the information but then I don't think the Hawks really care where the h*ll he wrestle...
Well, one guy in this thread expressed an opinion about it. You know, the guy I responded to.
That transfer rule no longer exists. Just the normal 1 year NCAA seat on the bench.
Well, how did Jered Cortez get to Penn State? Sat one year per NCAA rules. Was pretty sure that was an across the board rule change. Took place a few years ago. Cortez was at Illinois originally.
From the linked article:
Due to NCAA and Big Ten regulations for intra-conference transfers, Cortez will lose an entire year of eligibility. A red-shirt freshman this year, Cortez is competing only unattached this year and will be a sophomore for Penn State next season.

Am pretty sure that an intra-conference transfer is still more penalizing than an inter-conference transfer, but reading the NCAA rulebook is a dicey proposition..
Correct, 1 year, but he can still transfer. Previously, coaches could put restrictions on where a student athlete could transfer to. The 1 year is an NCAA rule across the board in all sports.
Okay, I see where you were going with that. If Cortez wanted to go to ASU and Illinois gave him a full release, he could have started the next season. If they didn't give his release, the NCAA rule would have kicked in and he would have lost a year. In Cortez' transfer to PSU, there is no decision. He sits a year regardless of whether the school releases him or not. A slight, but important difference I think.
There's a one year sit no matter what per the NCAA. What was in place, was a staff could put restrictions on where an athlete could go. For instance, a direct competitor that's in your schedule. That part no longer exists.
I disagree with the bolded part for wrestling, but I've been wrong many times in my life so will not be surprised if the Hawkeye sleepyheads agree with you.

That usually depends on the level of the transfer. Div 1 to Div 1 has always been a one year sit. For instance, when Pat Devlin transferred to Delaware, he could play at QB, right away. Same with Troy Reeder, lbr. Our new CB from Texas, can't remember which school, he's sitting out one year per NCAA.I disagree with the bolded part for wrestling, but I've been wrong many times in my life so will not be surprised if the Hawkeye sleepyheads agree with you.
That is precisely why we disagree. I recall that football has different transfer rules than sports like wrestling. I don't think you could find a wrestling example. If only my buddy Roarlions would see this. He sleeps with a copy of the rulebook in his arms at night I think. lol
Anyway, good discussion.
I'm not quite sure what you're disagreeing with, but maybe someone can chime in. I know Cortez sat a year due to the NCAA rule. That applies to all sports to the best of my knowledge. That's not changing.
Different rules for wrestling, if you get a release, you do not have to sit a year as long as it was not a BigTen to BigTen transfer (conference rule, not NCAA)

One-time transfer exception: If you transfer from a four-year school, you may be immediately eligible to compete at your new school if you meet ALL the following conditions:
- You are transferring to a Division II or III school, or you are transferring to a Division I school in any sport other than baseball, men's or women's basketball, football (Football Bowl Subdivision) or men’s ice hockey. If you are transferring to a Division I school for any of the previously-listed sports, you may be eligible to compete immediately if you were not recruited by your original school and you have never received an athletics scholarship.
- You are academically and athletically eligible at your previous four-year school.
- You receive a transfer-release agreement from your previous four-year school.
NCAA Rules allow for a one-time transfer, and wrestling immediately for the new school, if certain criteria is met. The first link below contains the information...too wordy to write here...but is tied to getting a Full Release from their school. The 2nd link below is an ESPN article on the B1G Transfer Rules change from 2011-12.
