Ummm... What we're not talking about

[PSU Mike]

Love the way a few on here take what they hear or don’t hear as fact and then assume that Is the way it actually is. Maybe TNT should just email you and others so you know exactly who they are and are not interested in and talking to. Get your opinions so they are doing what is best...more importantly what you think needs to be done. None of you take the time to consider that our compliance department is completely different than other schools. We have ONLY 9.9 scholarships to give out and no extra income to “promise” incoming recruits. Extra income may be available via clinics and camps, however, it can not be used as an added inducement in recruiting. Some schools do it, we can not and do not. It must be that if you don’t see it on a forum or on twitter that it just can’t be taking place. I do apolojize, however, if you have actually spoken with Tom or Terry and they have told you that they are not recruiting anyone at the weights you mentioned.

Oh, cut the crap. (coming from an overwhelmingly civil visitor) Seriously, you’re selling great staff way too short with this.

You seem to be overly defensive since I am assuming, since you are a psu poster that you are concerned about how their staff is perceived. If you will reread my post you will see that psu was never mentioned. You must have specific information to then assume I was referring to them.

133 is the only weight we missed on this year. Every other weight you listed can be recruited next year if needed. Not having a bunch of 2019 recruits committed at this point really isn't concerning.

Sorry but totally disagree. If the goal is to catch Penn State you have to throw 84 in there as well and likely 74 also.

And what would your solution be if money was being saved for a possible 133 sign or for a bigger better group next year.? If there were just no schoarships available to do more this year...with bringing Lugo and Cass in? Plus it’s just as likely that Nelson wrestles at 74 as he does 65. Would you advocate giving more than 9.9 scholarships or promising money from other sources?

Busiello said he has been locked to Psu since he was very young don't see a flip. There will be a traffic jam for sure in there lighter weights. I firmly believe when SL and Warner take the mat as redshirt freshman that lineup along with new facilities and HWC continuing to get top level competitors all these things will trigger another run of championships imo.

Who got Teasdales money?

What the heck is going on lately? We've got posters constantly complaining about how other schools cheat. We've got our coaches complaining about how other schools recruit against us. What is the point?

Put Spencer and Warner in the lineup this year. And have our team do the talking on the mat.

Lugo and Cass both came after he split so I'd guess they did.

Hey ummm... guys.

Who the hell are we in on? We have two top 100 recruits coming in. One of whom is a legacy.

We have no early commits from the 2019 class. Who are we in on?

Needs:

133
149
157
174 (not sold on Young)
184

That's FIVE weight classes without an elite recruit (and you could include 141 if you were being really honest). Somebody tell me I'm wrong, but 2019 is not looking so good for us.

Hey aren't you deflating the ballon for all of those who were in a celebratory mood after Whittlake decommitted.

Not saying you're wrong on a flip but weren't Teske and family life long Hawkeye fans? I thought that had been "reported" many times on here. More power to him if he wants to go test himself in that room when there could be a "better" chance somewhere else to actually make a lineup.

Maybe True but Busiello wore that old that old Psu singlet in all his super 32 wins says it just feels right when he wrestles in it. I know when push comes to shove he could change his mind he prob wants to be a 4 year starter I don't see that happening there.

What about Jordan Grace from Graham is he on Iowa radar I have not seen him wrestle.
