I can understand Cassar. He was hurt for his first two years, but Rasheed. How?

Interesting that this breaks on a message board before anywhere else.
Also, we should have a dual in Carver next year (I think) and Big 10 tourney.It was a lock for Cassar so not surprising. For Rasheed he had a solid case in comparison with some of the other recent guys so also not surprising. Next year PSU is going to set a record for the number of 6th year seniors in the lineup.
The team race at NCAAs will be a blast.

For sure. Im glad PSU gets them back. Lets take down their best team without any excuses left out their for them.Bring em on.
Yes, getting beat out for your starting spot can now be used as a redshirt. We better ****ing do this with Nelson next year. Let him wrestle one competition then sit him with an injury.
Was Gravina's situation different though because he never took a redshirt?As mentioned somewhere previously, Gravina may have set the current low bar for 6th-years.
EDIT: And it remains to be seen which of the eligible guys actually compete. Cassar may move on, and Conel may not be the best option. Rasheed is injury-prone.
A guy on TheMat.com says it's fake news, that these have not been determined yet.

Maybe that is what happened. It did seem like that at the time. But if it is the case then he must have gotten medical documentation for some sort of injury during that time period.
Expect this new standard to be totally abused by Cael. This is just the start I am sure.
Is there a reason Rasheed shouldn't get one? I'm honestly not familiar.

I asked him how he knew, he said:I was told at ncca’s it was a done deal and they were waiting to announce.
Thanks for the clarification. I was looking at wrestlestat, which has 14'-15' listed as his true freshman year.Gravina redshirted his first year. Injured the next year. Wrestled at Nationals the next 3 years. Got a 6th year.

Beat me to the punchRasheed redshirted 2014-15 and was injured much (if not most) of that campaign.
In 2015-16, he couldn't hold weight at 165, and they pulled the plug in late January.
He was not "beat out" in 2016-17. He got injured first semester, Morelli slotted in, and then Hall decided to burn his shirt.
AA'd in his 1st postseason in 2017-18.
DNP in his 2nd postseason in 2018-19.
LOL, what standard???? They are doing whatever they want over there! Bizarre happenings are just the norm. Red shirt, grey shirt, 6th year, guys "playing their own way" just to be a part of the team, Refs not knowing what a takedown is even when reviewing it on video........
Beat me to the punch
Outstanding! I can proceed with “Duck Dynasty” night at Carver!
Until it comes from a credible source and not a anonymous poster, it's just not worth it. I'd much rather start the rumor Valencia brothers are coming to Iowz.
If it's becoming so easy for a wrestler to be granted a sixth year, why did we not attempt to take advantage of it and sit Stoll for this season? He clearly could've used more time.
And as much as I don't want to see these guys back in their lineup, but if it's true, then good for them. As far as I'm concerned, every college athlete deserves another year of eligibility, especially if one year was lost to injury. After all, we will be pulling this same card with Kemerer.
The sit out rule was so petty to begin with. I understand the purpose behind it, but that doesn't make it right.The NCAA is a cluster F**K! Just look at the transfers they are allowing for football with no sit out year:
Justin Fields to Ohio State (afraid for his life at Georgia)
Tate Martell to Miami University (afraid of losing his position to Fields
Nah, more like an angry mob that's about to kick down the wooden door and set sh** on fire.......Guys come on. Were talking about a 6th year. Cael has absolutely nothing to do with this and frankly the responses in this thread make us like a bunch of crybabies.
They probably have a medical doctor on their payroll for the PS wrestling club. Really a sad day in wrestling when you can buy another shot at a championship. Might as well just hire three or four former PS wrestlers to be refs. at the nationals...Maybe that is what happened. It did seem like that at the time. But if it is the case then he must have gotten medical documentation for some sort of injury during that time period.
