    He's still working on perfecting spladel defense.

    Check this Google search out regarding our own Jeff Byers

    Maybe it's just me and growing up in PA with youth wrestling in the 80s. I never heard anyone talking about slapping, rolling or hitting or anything "resilite". That was my experience. It sounds contrived, corporate, and fake to me as a gen Xer.

    Shane Sparks = Gus Johnson of college wrestling. Can't stand that guy and his idiotic infatuation with resilite. Jeff Byers is the GOAT.

    Moving to Pennsylvania and hoping to become a Penn State fan

    I beg to differ Sir. Anecdotally, I've seen as many Stars and Bars in Pennsyltucky as anywhere in the South. I'll never forget going into a bar in central PA during a fishing trip and asking for the bartender to change the channel to an Eagles game during the Southern 500. We almost got into...

    You've got some great fishing close by. If your boys enjoy wetting a line, I'd give a lot of thought to getting a boat to fish for Susquehanna Smallmouth. Great fly-fishing options also.

    Tiger Woods in another car crash.

    He does look bad. Hard being on top hitting balls into cups I guess.

    Mitchell Mesenbrink amazement thread

    Yes that happened, and yes it was a bad look for Caliendo who I'm guessing will come to regret it. But Caliendo seems like a good guy and after a career 0-9 in that matchup that is an understandable reaction for a young man and outstanding wrestler. Bo Nickal already defended him. That's good...

    PJ Duke injury?

    He got stuffed on a blast double in that quarter final match where his head/neck took all of cannons weight just before they went OOB. I thought he was dazed from that. I just watched the replay and it looks pretty bad.

    A bit of deserved praise ...

    Welcome. It seems to me your kids are very lucky.

    Penn State is pretty good at wrestling.

    PJ is up there as the best freshman I've ever seen at PSU. He's got it all. The HR forum is calling him serial killer, PJSK has a good ring LOL.

    For Iowa fans, look on the bright side. With all the PSU award fatigue, surely Brands must be the leading 'Big Ten Coach of the Year' candidate going into next season after this year's Tom Ryan DEI selection. Just keep the dual loss within 29ish and it's in the bag Tom.

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    Yeah that was f-ed up. On the other side I have a good story about Ray Didinger. I never met him but I have a good friend who's kid was a journalism major at Temple. Apparently, Ray did a classroom guest lecture there after which my friend's son introduced himself to Ray and they had a...

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    Worst tipper: Gene Hart the "voice" license plate. Egomaniac a-hole.
