i think he was asking who you would knock off... you know, hypothetically...
Thought so too...Doesn't everyone have a list? Asking for a friend.
Sasso & Hidlay
- Thread starter DayHawk18
- Start date

We need some boys that like hoagies and making lists.
I am not sure if Bayside High had legal mats. I think those looked like those cheerleader mats. Probably cant get a regulation mat in that hallway.
Make it 21Guns and i'll drive them to IC myself
I remember AC Slater lateral drop a guy on those cheerleader mats. They are the mats cheerleaders typically kneel on at high school wrestling meets lol.
Lax - scroll a little further down his twitter feed. There is one particular tweet that is rather encouraging.
Young Trent appears to be rocking a mullet. Sammy Brooks 2.0???
21 guns, that new Iowa guy on the mat forums, and Spyker are all 3 amongst the worst of the worst.
Or discouraging from the standpoint that some j-hole Iowa fan is contacting recruits on Twitter.
Possible but not sure about "more likely." We have fans on this board, including posters that I enjoy, who think this practice is a good idea.
Not only a bad idea but is a rule not to really do. NCAA rule. Don't have the time to look it up. This has been discussed on BWI and they telling spyker to stop saying stuff like he does.
Just to clear my name - I don't have a twitter account and have never tweeted. I looked at his account as I was curious about the "beats to his own drum" comment on Flo and the guy definitely seems to be in the Jaybo/Sammy Brooks mold. However, I did pick up a new term today that I like from Spooner - J-hole.
Grown adults should NOT be contacting/stalking potential recruits. Once a recruit officially becomes part of Hawkeye nation, then ok. But during the actual recruiting process, stay the hell away from them. 17-18 year old kids don't need to be stalked by 50 year old keyboard warriors before they even step foot on campus. It's creepy and probably does a lot more harm than good.
Thanks Dad!
Obviously I agree with this, but haven't we already gotten this lecture, like a dozen times. This should not even need to be said.
What are you talking about here? The Iowa guy tweeted the wall of fame picture and Hidlay retweeted it. The original tweet wasn't directed at anybody or at least it appears that way.
And for the record, the J-hole Iowa fan is Kaleb Young's dad.
Mr Young is the man! Follow him on twitter. Like the Brands article he shares lots of positive thoughts and insight. Oh and his son is a damn good wrestler!
One thing I have to say about all social media, that most kids don't understand and it seems some adults do not either. It is public information. Creepily stalking at 16-17 yr old would be peaking through their windows and reading their dairy. Things never intended for the public eye to see. If so and so recruit posts something on a "public forum" they are deciding it is there for people to see. It's this day and ages newspaper. Heck, you could say they basically just bought billboard space on I-80 and put a message on there. That's public. Another route is this. Sasso, for example, has his locked down and only allows those he "approves" to see his info. He wants to keep it private and that's his choice.
An article about a recruit where he talks about a wrestling tournament or him posting on social media about the wrestling tournament are no different. Seems as though over half the "news" these days on anything is a tweet from someone about something. So, in my opinion, viewing public info is not stalking an individual. Posting directly at them, not my cup of tea but to each their own.

I was with you until the last sentence. As university representatives (yes, everyone on here would be considered as such for their respective colleges), it would violate NCAA recruiting rules for any of us to interact with a recruit in any way that gives the appearance of recruiting. My advice to people is to read, but don't type directly to recruits.

I am open to the possibility that this is true. And that I suck at Twitter. Also, I hope it's true for many reasons.
I think you owe Mr. Young an apology for being a proud Iowa wrestling parent.
Makes sense. And if accurate and seems as though it would be, then not only is it NOT my cup of tea, no one should do it!
This is from Oregon's athletics page, but is representative of all schools:
http://uoregon_ftp.sidearmsports.com/pages/general/NCAA-Rules_Regulations.pdf
Page 6:
A “representative of athletics interests” is an individual or business who is known by the University of Oregon to
Participate in or be a member of an organization promoting Oregon Athletics
Contribute financially to Oregon Athletics, the Duck Athletic Fund, individual athletic programs or any other UO athletics or sport-specific booster organizations
Assist in the recruitment of prospects
Provide NCAA permissible benefits to enrolled student-athletes or their families
Have been involved otherwise in promoting the institution’s athletics program
What this definition means is representatives of athletics interests typically include boosters/donors, alumni, faculty, staff, and fans.
Once identified as a representative of athletics interest, an individual or business retains the status forever. In addition, a person can be a representative of more than one institution.
Bold is mine. I fail on three counts. Donor, alumni, and fan.

Page 7 of that Oregon statement says the following:
As a representative of athletics interests, when you fail to follow NCAA and PAC-12 rules you not only impact the University and its relationship with the NCAA and PAC-12 but, more importantly, you hurt the eligibility of current and prospective student athletes. Therefore, it is crucial that you follow the rules and information given in this brochure. Institutional control of athletics is a fundamental requirement of NCAA legislation. Specifically, the NCAA Constitution provides that each member institution shall be responsible for:
Establishing a system of sound policies and procedures that will help ensure compliance with NCAA, PAC-12 and internal institutional rules
Ensuring that members of the institution’s athletics interest comply with all NCAA rules
Sharing responsibility for compliance throughout the institution 7 Due to the consequences, if you are ever unsure about the rules and/or whether an action is within them, please
ASK THE COMPLIANCE OFFICE BEFORE YOU ACT!
So as a representative, all this applies to us.

So let me get this straight, don't tweet at teenagers I don't know? Got it.
Well Butch, I'm in the process of buying a house and my lender deserves a baseball bat upside the head. Another delay because of laziness. So rather than having to explain how my bat ended up on someone's head, I've decided to torture this forum with words to defray my anger. Any more questions, or do I have to introduce you to my friend Louis?Seriously Penn85 - it's Friday afternoon, why so many words
Besides, it was all cut and paste.
