Hey, you're using my lines now, there you alchee.Ill be nice because its XMas....now go shine yours and the Van Brill last place and biggest flops trophies.
Unbelievable you are willing to consistently trash a wrestler (from your own program!) who just missed out on one of the lofty goals for a collegiate wrestler yet you have a massive erection for someone (Pinto) who has achieved the exact same level of accomplishment in the tournament. Go figure.
Bill you obviously know more than us.Im hearing from several sources that he is coming here.That its a done deal.Hope they are right.
I feel like I've heard that before. 🤔 Eventually, if you sling enough sh*t against the wall, some of it is bound to stick.

He does it all the time because he is a classless piece of ****. Neither JVB or MVB were top ranked kids out of high school yet both were 4 year staters and represented RU with class and achieved goals only some of us dream about and way beyond any expectations they had coming in but that’s this clowns MO because he trashed kids here all the time including Joey O now ..he thinks his 40 year ago 8th place gives him that right I guess as if that means something..
There is a reason RU wants nothing to do with him and he has gotten kicked off here 4 times

Really have to question what’s the point of having mods on the forum. Guy gets banned from here multiple times, does nothing but peddle lies and start arguments, badmouths people affiliated with the program, and most of his posts are filled with pedophilia references mixed in with homophobic nonsense and hate speech. Somehow he’s still allowed to post here.

Nice angle. There's no Pedophilia references there trouble maker. And yet, here you are contributing nothing to this forum and if anything , you have more anger and hate speech than anybody. I just mess with people. You , on the other hand take this stuffed , literally , because of whatever your shortcomings in life are. As stated previously by prolific posters , I was a legend in his program and also an academic scholar. All kidding aside , don't make slanderous defaming comments that sets you up for legalities. I have several family and friends who are in the legal profession that can easily find your I p address. You've been warned.
So inferring that Joey O missed last week's matches because he and his family were mixed up in that mafia gambling crap wasn't slanderous ...yea some legend you are at RU ...they want nothing to do with you because your such a legendary classless fool ripping RU kids and Goody every chance you get ...finishing 8th in the only sport that considers 8th something special is not legendary ...you never came close to actually being a National Champ ..you were on the last step of the podium just one step above 9th so don't be so full of yourself...you really believe your crap which is sad...you were so proud you hid under 4 different names of which 3 got booted off here because of your classless behavior ...you speak most of the time from the bottom of your brown bag ....now go ahead and sue me too ya clown.

Doofis, you say the shat, over and over and over and over again. You're just some nobody who's trying to gain acceptance from people who can give two c**** about you. That's what makes you so pathetic. Plus you've never achieved anything which I can understand why you're so angry.

I don’t have to share with you anything I’ve achieved in my life and I guarantee you. It’s far more than you ever have just because you’re so nobody that finished eighth and you seem to think that makes you something special in the real world and is pathetic that you attack these kids who have gone on to far more things than you ever will or have and yet you seem to think because of something you did 40 years ago, give you the right to attack the people here the way you do with your nonsense and classless comments and that’s your MO that just because anyone who doesn’t agree with you didn’t wrestle or wrestle at the college level makes them not worthy of even talking to you, which is a joke cause half the things you say, are lies and innuendo …
What happened back then? Did you choke in your wrestle back matches? Is that why you stood on the bottom rung of the podium instead of being up and even the top three you must’ve choked.lol as you always say …

I hope Anthony Knox does choose to come here and be the face of RU wrestling and go on to prove wack job Crackers wrong because let’s face it. He’s been wrong about everything else he ever spews.

It would be libelous, not slanderous. Regardless, please consider starting a private conversation or a dedicated topic for you and Crackers to piss at each other. I don't want to see it, and I expect that many others don't either.

Ditto, but that should also apply to our resident royal jackass who initiates the warranted responses.

They make plenty of sense to just about everyone here except for one Lone Ranger. Your idiocy, absurd predictions, disrespect to the wrestlers/program and being a jackass here is well documemted and remembered. Not that you care, but the icing on the cake is with the above post, you just pushed away one of the only people on this board who threw you a rope, tried to befriend you and give you some semblance of respect. Congrats! You are a strange dude. Most people would just DM the person privately instead of posting some douchey retort for all to see.

I have plenty of others who agree with me. Im not looking for approval from a bunch of faceless, screen names.Second, although somewhat harsh with my input, I speak the truth to what and how our program is doing and what direction we are going. We bargain basement facilities when I wrestled, yet myself and others beat some of the best in the country and legends.What we have now is great talent and incredible state of the art facilities, yet the regression is real. After a while the -we gotta get better-speeches get old and redundant.Just shut up and do it.Stop being a businessman and be a coach. At least with coach Oliver you knew where you stood and there was toughness with no expectations.

this isn’t true . The NIL has rules now and no wrestler that isn’t grandfathered in already is making 7 figures
There’s no rule that prohibits any individual athlete from making any amount of money. The rules cap schools for total payouts not individuals, and there’s still loopholes through endorsement opportunities.

Rather have Basset at that price point but damn.. these kids getting paid
I think Knox is a better wrestler than Bassett, but Bassett markets himself better than anyone.

It’s irrelevant though, Bassett isn’t coming here and Knox might.

You think Knox is currently a better wrestler then Basset bc there is a chance Knox might come here and bc he beat Basset some years ago.

I’m being objective about this.. Basset can wrestle this year and be a title contender. He bonused Joy in folkstyle this year. Knox gave Bouzakis a close match but I cannot as confidently say he has a better chance to win a title this year.

Then it’s a difference in an opinion but I don’t know the point of the debate anyway. I’d rather have Jax Forrest than both of them, but that’s not an option nor is Bassett.

Every deal has to go through the ncaa NIL clearinghouse , this was a huge topic of discussion when Basset Decomitting from Iowa bc his Iowa deal was pre clearing house and the new deal was after and many said he left a lot of money on the table when he switched

Well then we aren’t getting him at 7 figures. We probably dont have low 6
I dont think we should put any stake in this kid. Let Va.Tech, and UNC have that headache I spoke to some North and South Jersey friends of mine and they said he had some issues with a DWI, a problem relation with a girl, and terrible academics.Do we want that headache.Sounds like another Camp situation.No thanks.

I’m not surprised that 7 figures is the asking price. Even Top talent not named Bo are pulling $250K p/yr X 5 years. I don’t know how that’s sustainable for a sport that generates little if any revenue.

Anyone know where VT is getting their bags of cash? Their recruiting has gone through the roof with guys like Konopka and Fortier in addition to BB and MM.

The difference in our opinions is that yours is based on emotions and biased. My opinions are generally based on facts and logic.

You think Knox is a better prospect bc we might get him and bc results from years ago. Hey and I hope you are right, especially if we land Knox! And I might even agree with your opinion had Knox beaten Bouzakis.. but he lost which means he probably is a underdog to Robinson, Lilledahl, Sprayley etc too..

Guess u don’t compute that Basset already bonused #2 Joy and #9 Tyus this year in folkstyle… that makes him an instant title contender. You’re probably salty we couldn’t land Basset and I don’t blame u I am too. You think he’s just a better marketer but look at the facts he bonused the #2 guy. Knox is not bonusing any of the top 3 guys at 125 at the moment.

Forrest I agree is more of a debate tho.

I love how you discredited my take because you feel it’s based on opinion, and then proceeded to list opinions to back your take.

It’s also my “opinion” that Knox beat Bassett.
