    2024 NCAA's - Day 1 - Match/discussion thread

    Unger never tried anything offensive. If the officials let this be the standard of wrestling then Lewan will be crowned King.

    2024 Transfer Portal

    Can't see anyone portaling in? Or cannot identify anyone? I see options from 174-197, maybe for 1 or 2 guys. Maybe none. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Truax like one year transfer. We have Barr at 184 (this year). He looks to go obviously. But if Carter leaves we have 174 and of course...

    Journeymen Collegiate Classic, Nov. 12 Bethlehem Freedom High

    Some very intriguing matchups ... if they happen. Top must see? 285. Kerk v. Schultz. I doubt it happens but would be must-see. They haven't wrestled since Kerk's freshman NCAA appearance. The team dual in 2022 involved a duck.

    Wrestling 2023 NCAA Tournament Live Thread: Session II

    I will say that Paniro Johnson looks like he transferred from tOSU weight program. He is jacked, but his attacks were very fast too. He was 165 last year and dropped to 149? He will be a force for the next few years. Great effort by both guys here. Very very entertaining. This is what the...

    Wrestling 2023 NCAA Tournament Live Thread: Session I

    Yeah, I get the people that are saying that he will learn from this. But those people need to rewatch his B1G action, and the last few weeks in duals. He was all defense in the first half of the year, and then he started getting in on the single leg attack. That was good because he really...

    Wrestling 2023 NCAA Tournament Live Thread: Session I

    Facundo's ability to secure TD on a single leg needs a lot of work. He really gets on it enough, but cannot finish.

    Wrestling 2023 NCAA Bracket Release Thread

    Nagao is a good scrambler in neutral, and he tied up some good takedown attempts. I saw that match like you did, as RBY seemed to have a very measured approach but that has been common. Only after he breaks an opponent does he turn up the pace. One thing ... RBY took neutral in the second...

    Wrestling Penn State Wrestling dominates Ohio State in Columbus, winning 29-9

    All-American Malik Heinselman?? He dominated against Steen but that doesn't make him an AA. Great team victory last night. Closed out a tough series of Michigan/Iowa/OSU, and they begin their training thru the rest of the schedule to get to March.

    Bo Nickal earns UFC contract after dominating performance in DWCS

    +900? Really? He was a heavy underdog? I'm a novice bettor but "+" denotes the dog, and the amount a $100 bet will payout at. His opponent might have been at +900. That puts Bo at maybe -300 (guessing). But I get the point. Get your bet down early on Bo before everyone else does.

    Wrestling AJ Ferrari done for the season

    If he can redshirt, if that still exists in a few years, he can still be a 5-timer. Does that appeal to him? If not that leaves C-Star as the only potential 5-timer. I know, I know ... but its true.

    Anyone know whether it’s possible to get tickets to match at Maryland?

    Yes. The Pavilion is the side gym, where they hold volleyball and other small turnout events. The last time PSU wrestled there it was advertised as being in the Pavilion, and tickets were purchased in advance. (Yes, you could get them at the box office walk up too) Advance sales were high...

    Why "Social Media" is great....

    You mean the guy that is 0-2 lifetime against David Taylor is ranked #1? Makes perfect sense. Hopefully they get to settle it on the mat.

    OT- Chambers quits

    Curtis, put down your Dobro ... Chambers was coach for 9 seasons. He did NOT make the NCAA tourney the year before last. Two years ago they won the NIT. The next year they bombed under .500. Last year of course was a shame that they didn't get the NCAA bid. They deserved it. Lamar deserved...

    Flow New D1 Ranking for next year

    Well, it goes like this ... 1. Dean 2. Bolen 3. Hidlay 4. Deprez (Binghamton) 5. Bonaccorsi (Pitt) 6. Brooks then four staight guys that AB beat last year. I only hope we get to see action this year. AB is just one of the many exciting kids on the team this year.

    Austin Boone and Beau Bartlett make Dapper Dan

    Well, USA has two guys going at 195 also, so you could both be sorta correct.

    Next Great Penn St Wrestlers

    Sarcasm seeking argument!! It will be a fresh year, not a punt, and I know everyone is looking forward to the next wave. We will see ... JLee Starocci Brooks Beard Nevills / Kerk ... next year. That is not punting. That is competing. Now if you want to talk shirts for NLee, RBY, and even...

    NLWC in Rome

    To be accurate, it was 4-0 when Snyder kept pressing and got thrown to his back. So the 4-0 became 8-0 on that feet to back combination, then the fall came off that throw. He had a lot of trouble getting on his offense and took a lot of tough shots.

    The rest of the season

    What is the wrestling season without little drama. No, the Champ getting injured isn't the drama. That is a shame. PSU has had some horrible luck with injuries in the freestyle season, and even further back. The Berge blackout and Cassar's shoulder are just the recent ones. We have no idea...

    Match Notes for ASU Dual

    Well this could be interesting depending on who steps on the mat. Even with the starters, it would be very competitive at 125, 149, 157, 165, 184 and 285. We would have the clear edge at 133, 141, 174 and 197. But we won't be rolling out starters at 157, 184 and 197 (maybe). If that is the...
