Anybody know what mat Grothus v Pletcher is on?
Gilman possibly but the other 2 defensive wrestling is not Ayala style. Spencer great technician but Desanto is the one to train and spar with.What if Ayala reached out to OSU?
Iowa has Spencer but OSU has Gilman, RBY, and Fix
Maybe Drake didn't appreciate the 2022 SS after all. Just posting food for thought from a non-Iowa fan.
I mean, technically he has to, boosters are not allowed to bypass NCAA rules, but also to your point the NCAA does not seem to currently care. I sure hope they don't start caring soon and come after usWell Bob isn’t on staff so he doesn’t have to follow NCAA rules. Is it right? No, but it’s how the NCAA operates in the NIL era.
To everyone saying no one predicted brands winning.Look guys sounds like Buch is on board and Teemer is at least 50/50 maybe more like 70/30 on board but if this lineup can’t give psu all they want I would be shocked.
Cruz: ???
Ayala: Top 3
Block: Low AA-rd of 12
Parco: Top 3
Teemer: Top 3
Cali: Top 3
Arnold/PK: Top 5 or 6
Brands: Top 3
Buch: Top 3
Big Ben: AA
Top 3’s all have pretty damn good shots at finals and even winning it.
The last ruling by the courts says that boosters can contact athletes and offer them. Currently it's the wild westI mean, technically he has to, boosters are not allowed to bypass NCAA rules, but also to your point the NCAA does not seem to currently care.

TnT are doing what they can to make it a possible dog fight with PSU. And I’m really happy to see them take this route and make an effort to put the best possible team on the mat this upcoming season.To everyone saying no one predicted brands winning.
You really think that? You REALLY think I haven't talked to a single guy that isn't currently or hasn't recently been on the team?
Come on man.
Teemer was in the room
Yup. you're correct. Teemer was never in the room. Weird that that one got floated out.
Oh. i know he's an insider.
I'm not saying I am or ever was. I get good information from multiple sources though.
vhsalum has quite the legacy. 🤣You lied about being a Hawk to make your posts seem more legitimate.
Regular Juke Box hero….vhsalum has quite the legacy. 🤣
You're welcome? I think we are coming out on top in that deal.Thank you guys for giving my school glazier
This place would be better if the supposedly more reliable people would share at least 83% of what they know to be true. I highly doubt it would somehow hurt the program, or if so, we got bigger problems than their sharing. If they don't share, then weak sauce to complain about others speculating or sharing tidbits they've heard, whether reliable or not. JMO.There are people on this board with more reliable information than vhs. They choose not to share, because shockingly it’s often not in the best interest of the program.
Agree 100%TnT are doing what they can to make it a possible dog fight with PSU. And I’m really happy to see them take this route and make an effort to put the best possible team on the mat this upcoming season.
this board is not sure if they should share or not. they are also selective about what they should share. and then they are also critical of some things that are shared. and critical of the messenger that shares particular things.This place would be better if the supposedly more reliable people would share at least 83% of what they know to be true.

I know the answer to this question.So does anyone know if you have to be a grad transfer to leave a program at this point?

Judge grants preliminary injunction over NIL rules
A federal judge has barred the NCAA from enforcing its rules prohibiting NIL compensation from being used to recruit athletes, granting a request for a preliminary injunction and dealing another blow to the association's ability to govern college sports.www.espn.com
what do you mean by 'get back' ?
like, retroactive penalties?
Bloviators running amok!this board is not sure if they should share or not. they are also selective about what they should share. and then they are also critical of some things that are shared. and critical of the messenger that shares particular things.
in short, they don't know what they want.
This is true to a certain extent but I feel that this board is fair and has significantly less gate keepers than some other boards. You can’t let everything go unchecked, some people just crave attention.no. quite opposite, really. people that might have some insight reluctant to post b/c some on here shoot the messenger.
I hope some of those with more insight post here more often going forward.no. quite opposite, really. people that might have some insight reluctant to post b/c some on here shoot the messenger.
You lied about being a Hawk to make your posts seem more legitimate. The truth is your "sources" aren't even good enough to tell whether Teemer was in the room, but you expect us to believe you have intimate details of an alleged conversation between Beth Goetz and David Taylor, LOL. Come on man.
My last point on all of this. I couldn't care less about your lying (but that is weird, dude. you're a grown-ass man) or your bad sources. What I do care about is that you created a persona here of someone with reliable information, and use that persona to run down our coaches every chance you get. I don't like that because it fuels a false narrative about them, and that hurts the program. The truth is you have no clue about them or what they're doing or not doing to try to get the Hawks back on top.
Now go tell Metcalf, Borshel, et al... I said hi.f

Others have already answered this as well.I know the answer to this question.
That’s not food for thought. It’s brain rot made up bullshit.What if Ayala reached out to OSU?

That's why I said no ASU but maybe another state school. I heard that as wellSDSU?
If your response when a transfer comes in is to leave, presumably because you don’t have any confidence you can beat him, then you probably shouldn’t have had the spot in the first place
ThisI’m sorry but Glaizer, Cobe, PK, and others have had their chances to place at NCAA’s and solidify the spot. They haven’t, can’t blame Brands for doing his job and trying to get a better team on the mat. I’m not a fan of the new way, I prefer recruiting a kid and having him for 4 years and we have that right now with starters Ayala, Brands, Gabe, Kueter, Angelo, etc. I don’t know why everyone gets on Iowa for doing what PSU did last year bringing in a 33,65,&84.

This is where I’m at, I hope Tom was upfront with his wrestlers about these possible additions.I generally agree here. But there’s a distinct difference between getting portal guys in April/May and getting them at the end of August. What was the message to the existing wrestlers? If they were mislead or told bold faced lies it’s a much different story, and that’s what people are hinting at.
Or OSU bringing in Hamiti, Hendrickson, Amine and Fish.I’m sorry but Glaizer, Cobe, PK, and others have had their chances to place at NCAA’s and solidify the spot.
