    Penn State Sports Economics

    Good catch. For that comment I was implying that the West Coast schools were the two in Los Angeles. Washington and Oregon certainly fall Into that classification too.

    Penn State Sports Economics

    At you didn’t say beach volley ball. ‘“Obviously“ that, or water polo, aren’t in the cards at Penn State, at least in this universe. Maybe, just maybe, we could see wrestling at one or both of the West Coast schools. UCLA had a varsity program at one time, as did Oregon and the UDub. Maybe...

    Penn State Sports Economics

    Along the same lines, sports like water polo and beach volley ball are prominent in a good number of West Coast schools (and other places too). USC and UCLA are those in the current B1G which are active in both.

    Why Social Media is enriching our lives, while it eats away at the fabric of our society.

    Seems like the "since 2002" date was selected to get close to the last 25 years it appears. Still, it is an arbitrary pick. Pick, say, 2012 as a starting date and see what happens.

    Transfer Portal 2026 + Other team movements

    Real Woods from Stanford to...Iowa. He was looking ahead to the years when he couldn't wrestle any more. That degree from Iowa was the allure.

    What was Cael referring to about "the rules"?

    Is he possibly suggesting that some schools are tampering (illegally contacting) with other schools’ rosters before wrestlers announce they are in the transfer portal? Football has a problem with third parties (agents or high school coaches) serving as the conduit rather than the schools themselves.

    The don't clog the board with final/stay thoughts from NCAAs, post them here, thread

    Okie State is still a year away from offering serious competition. The four freshmen (believe that was the name of a pop group way back when, but I digress) performed better than anticipated. The three winners will be very tough next year. Most here knew Forrest would be good, but maybe not that...

    IoWas our main rival

    If you could time machine back about, oh, four or five years or so, the old HR wrestling board on Rivals was far and away the most heavily used board there was. One of their better posters, who had the screen name of AZChief at the time, had sort of a signature line: "They hate us cause they...

    Coaching Carousel

    A satisfying bit of accomplishment from Hunter's wrestling past: In the Dapper Dan Wrestling Classic, Hunter defeated a four-time state champion from Iowa.

    Levi Haines Appreciation Thread

    Thanks for the chart. Great info. Now, a loss is a loss statistically. Can't change that but as a side note, that two of Starocci's were medical forfeits makes his accomplishments even more impressive. Data masters will want to take this list and then enhance it with bonus matches, tech falls...

    PSU - Ohio State '26 Match thread

    The big island is my favorite. Lots of things to see including - maybe - a volcanic eruption. The west side is dry while the east side (where Hilo Is) is lush tropical paradise. I like the dry side from Kona up to Waikoloa Village. Enjoy.
