Nah, they haven't figured out yet that we're actually the same guy.

I gave you a like just for knowing the dudes (assuming of course......) name was Francis. That's some top flight internet sleuthing Columbo. Much respect. 😏
even more insecure calling someone names after being called out on it.
Damnit, there’s that word again! Btw, I thought math wasn’t allowed on this site sir. But it did prompt me to open up my calculator. Ended up getting bored and just spelling boobies. Had a good laugh and ate a sandwich.Nope, I was just being a "pedant"...
Seriously? I was literally as friendly as I could be while essentially making fun of myself. Look up the phrase I used before thinking I called you a name. What I did was a bout as far from insulting you or name calling as I could get…
Hell, I’m at a 2.17 ratio and I’m a terrible poster. Clearly this formula is skewed. Just feel free to like this post if you all agree I suck.
They was raised proper.
Him being a wanker might be a factor.
ISU is generally a mix of engineering, design, computer, various research and agriculture students. I wonder if recruits have a difficult time figuring out where they fit academically?
There is lack of recent program high level success and a coaching staff which hasn’t had success at the Olympic and World (Championship) level.
Ok bottom line is no way in Hell would I have brought Dean in over a returning AA to me it’s like selling your soul to the devil. At some point people in that room have to wonder am I next? But it’s still working over there for now. Now if you were bringing in Dean for a non AA I could get behind that a bit more. But here’s the thing we don’t know what went on behind closed doors and Carl obviously has something figured out. As for Teske I would lean towards him over Schriever but either way I will cheer for whoever is out there.
Regarding the problems getting the top Iowa high schoolers to come to Ames...is the absence of a reputable RTC a factor? I heard the entire club fits in a Kia Sol when they travel to events.
Something ain't right in Ames.

The younger Lara brother had committed to ISU, but then ended up at UNI. I always thought KD's strategy there was see if Teske would follow Lara and when he didn't he cut bait on Lara. I could be wrong as KD does take in a lot of the second tier Iowa kid's. Probably as room guys, maybe that assumption is wrong.
I get it. But I think you always want iron to sharp iron. My opinion it was a good move. I don’t want every weight that way but it worked. I will not and refuse to shit on carl for this one. Totally understand your post though.
Let’s not get too crazy. He went 10-6 and finished 7th. Even for a young guy that’s not a meal ticket to the starting lineup for 3 more years at a major school. It shouldn’t be, anyway. Dean was a near no brainer for them and he showed why last March.

I think Dresser is just pissed at the Ft Dodge kids that have been using the RTC and then shunning the program.
Pro tip...stop sucking and get somebody that would be a good workout partner for the lightweight recruits.
From what I'm hearing...the RTC is funded pretty well but he still can't attract top tier guys to join.
He's just lucky expectations are so low.
And the excuses about not wanting Teske are weak, at best.
I think they've decided NIL is more important than having RTC athletes. Kids aren't asking who do you've that will make me better in the RTC anymore it's what NIL deal do you've
The Albaugh clan and the guy that owns Brownells are gonna have to open the checkbook wider. And Gary Lynch if he can avoid prison.
LOL
Well, we do agree that Karl has something figured out. Winning national championships is good for recruiting.
I get what all you guys are saying and I want to win as bad as the next guy but to me there is a right way to do it. I can respect how you feel but tell that to the young man that got crapped on and his family. Where he finished is irrelevant he’s a AA and had plenty of time to get better. Correct me if I am wrong Carl still wins it if he does not have Dean correct…
Bottom line is I would never do it. Do I understand it I guess so just something I don’t believe is the right way to do it.

Beard was not even close to 100% in his AA year. I believe it was a knee? He did beat Dean last year. More to follow this year.
The RTC isn’t real well funded. They’ve had issues raising money since the start. And the college program should be the feeder for it, but it just hasn’t been.
Not according to info I've seen. Supposedly the RTC has had success raising $$$.
But I agree that ISU kids that are worth a shit don't stay in town after graduation outside of Gadson.
Pretty sure the situation in Ames after his 5th? year isn't what Dresser envisioned when he left VT.
They certainly raised money but missed their fundraising goals for several years. Not sure about the last couple. But $$$ continues to be an issue.
Okay. Dresser should take a lesson from Clone fans with his fundraising..."If you can't reach your goals and expectations, lower your goals and expectations".
Spooner, can you cite some specifics here? Are you basing the lack of funds off of the lack of CRTC athletes? I believe those aren't one in the same. From my understanding KD has done a fine job raising funds. I could be wrong though. That's why I ask.
That “10-6” argument is beyond disingenuous. That was a Covid shortened season. Two of his losses were to Amine 8-5 and 8-6 in OT. 2 more were at B1G’s to Caffey and Davison, while hurt. His last 2 were to Elam and Woodley at NCAA’s while also still AAing while injured. Still, out of all those the only one not to AA is Caffey and he has won 7 matches at NCAA’s in his career.
With that said, you don’t pass on Dean if he was the one initiating. But, I think you will see this season that the difference between the 2 is very small and may not actually be in Dean’s favor. I say that with Dean being the ONLY PSU guy I actively rooted for last year…

You can check their website to see that year over year donations are down, this while the cost of doing business is up. They miss fundraising goals annually (which aren’t terribly aspirational). It isn’t really talked about—it’s still much better than it was so that’s saying something.
He did pull a break being the 15 seed when the 31 seed caught the 2 seed and stuck him.
Spooner, it looks like the first year reported was in the $600,000 range and the following two, as this year hasn't been completed yet, was in the $400,000 range. Yes, that is down from year one, but I wouldn't say there's a problem over there & I don't see where they posted a fund raising budget? I ain't trying to be "right" here. You just had me really cornfused with how you "framed" it up.
