Eastern Michigan gets first AA since 1999 and then drops wrestling

Dang shame! We need more teams, not less.

If only Sa'Derian Perry wrestled 133 instead of 141. We could have found a home for him.

They were close to dropping football a few years ago.Athletic Dept. is in tough shape.Also dropping softball,mens swimming and diving and women's tennis.This will continue to happen at schools where they are spending more than they are taking in.

I’ll still take an all American at 141.

He wrestled 33 last year I’m pretty sure

Rats. Was hoping this was Penn State

According to his EMU bio, he did wrestle '33 last year. He was '32 as a HS senior. Don't know if 33 is still realistic, but Iowa wouldn't certainly have more than a little appeal to someone like him.

Of course, his 15-16 regular season record this year makes you think twice about him being the answer.

Stop -- I don't want Penn State to ditch wrestling. I just want them to ditch their lowlife coaching staff.

Lol that's not gonna happen. The only way it happens is if there is proof that they are doing illegal shit.

I don't believe that is inconsistent with fhl's sentiments.
