By the way, how do you boys feel about Mark Hall (MN), Bo Nikal (TX), Suriano (NJ), Nevills (CA), Wittlake (OR), RBY (AZ), Cortez (IL), McIntosh (CA), Molinaro (NJ) and all the others helping the state university that's home to the best wrestling in the country.
Remember, our coach is from IOWA, your coach is from UTAH!
That's not what Google says - page one had three frat hazing stories and one Sandusky. No mention of Cael or wrestling.
I tried googling Cael Sanderson and it came back "Did you mean Carl Sanderson?"
that sounds more like Siri than Google-Google rarely argues with me or tries to tell me what I meant-or is that my wife? Sorry, I gotta get a drink.
Have to admit, that was funny.
if you google "bail," you get a rough description of what Cael did to ISU:
<< 2. abandon a commitment, obligation, or responsibility.>>

I think we need Slushead to write one of his funny short stories about this thread........
I am just waiting for the first person to write naana naana boo boo - you're a big fatty head butt face!!
Well said. I don't expect it will be very popular with the Penn State crowd, but good post nonetheless.
It's fair, but I can't relate. I was Never raised to care what others think, especially if I did nothing wrong. I actually made it a point to wear my Psu gear more post scandal here in PA. Maybe that's the difference, all I got was more We Ares than before . A few guys wanted to talk scandal with me and we disagreed a few times but that's about it. Each persons experience is different, I'll respect that
That's the difference. You live in PA where about 1/3 of the adult population has a connection to Penn State.
Very true, probably best I stay here then as I'm not one to put away my gear or turn from confrontation which isn't a great quality I'll admit at times. I just can't imagine confronting a dude for wearing PSU garb or labeling an entire University as he obviously had Nothing to do with sexual misconduct.
I agree with you but that's the reality outside of PA.
Sad, but true. Really are many stupid people in this country. I'm glad the reception from Hawkeye fans is mainly not shared by those of which you describe Cali , regardless of the back and forth between bwi and HR. The Wrestling world is a better place
Yes!....
If you want perfect weather and balanced politics try San Diego. (You may have to donate a few organs to afford it though.)
The reality is a lot of Penn State fans have no idea about the perception of Penn State outside of their own personal bubbles, mostly contained to Pennsylvania. The perception of Penn State around the rest of the country is that they made the choice to protect and allow a pedophile to go unpunished and continue his life unrestricted, rather than risk hurting the program and legacy of a coach. They were willing to look the other way, because they didn't want to have the program look bad in any way. Is that totally accurate or a fair assessment? Maybe not, but it is a reality.
Another reality, if you bring this topic up on BWI, you will be banned. No questions asked. They will come to everyone else's board and say anything they want, but they will not tolerate anything on their board that is not in lock step with "the company line," so to speak. Which,by the way, is a big reason why so many Penn State fans still have no idea about the perception of Penn State outside of their own echo chambers/bubbles. BWI is just a constant repeating of the same 5 topics and identical opinions. Any different opinions are shut down and then blocked. That is why they have to go...ruin.... I mean... discuss.... topics on everyone else's boards, because they are not allowed to have different opinions on their own message board. Anything other than Cael is the greatest, PSU is the greatest, and PA is the greatest is not to be tolerated.

I thought California leaned heavily to the left, or is SD a little different than most of the state?
I did the same though in SC, and after a few months, no one even mentioned it again. Maybe it has to do with the progressiveness/conservativeness of the area you live in.
I don't believe that is true in any way, and is more a description of your feelings than reality. Well over 90% of those commenting on my PSU gear commiserated with me about the NCAA overstepping their bounds. Everyone including me condemns what happened and that those responsible should be punished, but a miniscule amount of people blame the athletes, students, fans, and school (in general) for what happened. Much of drama after the fact was a political power play within PA and at the NCAA. Frankly, little of what was done had anything to do with helping children escape abuse. It was simply a power struggle by the governor, the PSU Board, and Mark Emmert.
As a whole it does but it's a big state. San Diego has traditionally been a Republican stronghold because of the large military presence. The city actually has a Republican mayor. The Central Valley is different too (I refer to it as the Oklahoma of California). It's the San Francisco/Bay Area and city of Los Angeles that really gives California the leftward tilt.
The scandal was certainly a dark period for Penn State but it doesn't define the school anymore then Watergate defines ours government or Tailhook defines the Navy and Marines. Any institution around long enough will eventually have a period of time where it's leaders fail it. The key point is that those people were not the institution itself, they were only representatives that failed in their fiduciary duties.
Reaction to the scandal is just one of many of life's real life I.Q. tests. The dumber of our society are the ones that feel the scandal defines the university and it's many alumni. They just can't comprehend the fact Penn State was established over 150 years ago and has been/will continue to be known as a leader in Research & Development, Business and Academics or that Penn State has the largest alumni base in the world and could produce a list of notable members that would dwarf the vast majority of other schools.
I know this is contrary to the narrative some of you want to promote, but I think people that read these boards realize the ones that play the Sandusky card are the lower rung of posters around here that have a history of resorting to name calling and other juvenile methods to get their point across. Worse they trivialize the awful events underlying the scandal by using it as fan fodder in a psychological attempt to deal with current state of affairs in college wrestling.

Basically the O.C. and below is somewhat balanced politically
Could have sworn this thread was about Suriano?
THis thread should be about Suriano…
Personally, I think he just feels embarrassed having to compete in the gawd awful singlets PSU wrestles are forced to wear and we're forced endure. I mean, who wears a (high-waisted,) white belt after Labor Day?

Now you've crossed the line!
The longer this thread lasts the more I am convinced that Suriano is leaving PSU.
That Grothus thread was so last year… Apparently some folks enjoy living in the past.
Speaking of living in the past, did you know there are STILL folks in PA who think Suriano is a member of their wrestling team?
I think he's gone too, but he's on shutup mode until Cael gets his contract.
BTW - I don't think PSU can possible pay Cael and company what they think they're worth.
Penn State has a billionaire donor, Terrence Pegula. He funded the move to give Penn State a D1 hockey team. Paid for a new arena for them to play. I am guessing he is the money behind the wrestling team too. Money is not an issue. Whenever they need more they can just run to him.
So I'll go everywhere but San Diego. .. o wait I live in Iowa. Nevermind
It is a great place to visit. Especially during an Iowa January...
How can you possibly underestimate the slush fund?
Back to the actual thread topic. This is still based on conjecture but if it's true that Cael is denying a release perhaps he actually has a reason beyond being a big meanie. Maybe he thinks that there has been tampering by Rutgers. Anyway, if that conjecture based on another conjecture based on no actual solid information is true, I would grant him a release to anywhere except Rutgers. (It's still hard to believe that Suriano would risk a year of eligibility to the whims of Delany.)
An update from the guy who originally posted the Suriano thing on BWI (I think).
