PSU finished 4th in the B1Gs in 2020. Sure the NCAA tourney was canceled but ya really think PSU was winning the big prize in 2020? You can try to claim Iowa wasn’t a shoe in, but no way even the biggest homer thinks PSU was winning it.
What an idiotic post. The NCAA Tournament is a team tournament that accumulates points over three days and yes, sad that you can't admit it just like CP on FLOW can't bring himself to understanding that Iowa won the Team Title... Iowa won the team title with a team that was no where near 100% this year, but were still able to defeat the mighty Nittany Kittens. As far as 2020. Iowa crushed the Nittany Kittens at the Big 10 in 2020 and were healthy going into the big dance. They would have won back-to-back titles this year. Accept the facts that Iowa has been the BEST Team in the nation for the past two years and are favored next year. The Penn State Nation and FLO can do all they can to change the narrative, but the facts remain. The University of Iowa won their 24th Team Title and are still favored going into this year. Some of you from PSU are writing Iowa off in the following year, but I think we're still going to have a very good team. The momentum is on our side now. That must really sting.
You miss the Point, If you want to "posthumously" take the Championship in 2020 I am fine with that (I think you would have) but you then need to inform Iowa that all their 27 year olds can't come back for a 7th season. Next season is ONLY possible because you in fact did NOT win in 2020.
Next Season Should be fun for you, Enjoy it-- some footage of whats to come below
You missed the point. Saying PSU “didn’t win one year” is just as inaccurate. I’m not giving it to Iowa. I’m saying PSU would not have won in 2020 and didn’t win in 2021 so that’s two years running for Carl “not winning” the big one.You miss the Point, If you want to "posthumously" take the Championship in 2020 I am fine with that (I think you would have) but you then need to inform Iowa that all their 27 year olds can't come back for a 7th season.

And anyone from Penn State talking about the age of their wrestlers is truly ironic. With grey shirts, medical shirts and now a COVID Year....
. With grey shirts, medical shirts and now a COVID Year....The RTC guys get paid obviously, but I doubt recruits are being promised RTC jobs 4-6 years down the line. I could see that happening with accomplished upperclassmen transfers though, but then you’d probably have to include Eierman in that speculation
Sounds like if there’s any funny business it’s likely inflated camp payments, but if so I kinda doubt it’s enough to make a huge dent in what they’re paying for school. If so then yeah we could have a scandal on our hands.
But getting back to the RTC’s, I do think they’re an issue for college recruiting, but not because of the money. Organizations that “aren’t affiliated” with the school, yet using the same facilities, having the same coaches on staff and able to have college athletes train with professionals not to mention holding Rokfin events for HS athletes that can visit the campus during a dead period doesn’t seem like something that would fly in other NCAA sports. 60% of the MFS US Olympic qualifiers are from the NLWC, why wouldn’t any elite wrestler want to go there if that’s their goal? I’m sure many do take less scholarship money than they’d get elsewhere.
Iowa won a national team championship last yr, know they have 1 more yr to possibly win another, then they’ll probably struggle to get top 4 for a few yrs. so they do nothing but bitch and moan about getting out recruited, basically all it is.
The only thing better than this take is your amazing syntax, showing your firm grasp of the English language!
Maybe you can tell me who is 27? If you are going to be throwing stats around, be accurate. And see me in about 2-3 years when all of your grey shirts, medical red shirts, and others come around.
Assuming Iowa offers 21 guys money:
125: Lee, Ayala
133: DeSanto, Schriever, Ybarra
141: Eirman, Henson
149: Murin, Rathjen
157: Young, Reyna
165: Marinelli
174: Kemerer, Kennedy
184: Assad
197: Warner, Glazier
285: Cass
+3 more. Christenson? Wilson? Costello?
125: Lee, Ayala

Keep in mind, Lee, DeSanto, Eierman, Young, Marinelli and Kemm do not count towards the 9.9 in 21-22. Same with Nick Lee. That's all money which can go elsewhere.
Iowa had a better chance in 2020 than they do next year, although they're still the favorites....so to answer your hypothetical, I'd rather see Iowa compete against the PSU team from 2020 for another team title myself.You miss the Point, If you want to "posthumously" take the Championship in 2020 I am fine with that (I think you would have) but you then need to inform Iowa that all their 27 year olds can't come back for a 7th season.

C’mon man, I’m as big a PSU fan as they come, but this kind of post is totally unnecessary.
i’m not perfect, but I’d like to think we can all be better.
unnecessary?? Just stating what i believe and what everyone can read on the forums from posters. Actually thought I typed it in a nice way compared to what could have been put on the post. But I don’t need to go down that dark rabbit hole some on here do.
Creative use of the customary period (.). However, very high marks for use of body language!
Finally something we can agree on. I still don't like you 😁
