    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    We could also argue that the athletes are taking advantage of a system that was designed to make them well rounded people by providing athletic opportunities while getting a college degree. We have come so far from the intended of sports in college and the college experience that it is hard to...

    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    Thanks for the response. I was trying to say that this is a silly situation and a 10 year old could come up with a system that makes sense. Now that lawyers, bureaucrats, and other eggheads have gotten involved, I understand that it will take special wording and defining words and rights etc...

    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    You give a kid one year to develop and be ready to compete in college. If a kid gets injured one year, he can still complete another year. But let's get rid of all the possible different ways to get an extra year and let's get these kids out of school before they are 25 and 26.

    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    Yes, but could he withhold funding from universities that do not comply? Is that correct?

    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    It amazed me that no one has any common sense anymore. How can the NCAA not see this as a problem and make changes that are needed. A 10 year old could come up with a plan that makes sense, but the NCAA needs the president to issue and executive order. WOW!!! I do not know whether it will...

    President to Sign Executive Order on College Sports - Changing transfer and redshirt rules

    I would rather see 5 years to play 4 and that is that. It is good to get rid of Olympic redshirts and medical redshirts etc. The system was broken and it is a shame that we need a president to solve the problem when the supposedly greatest minds in college sports could not come up with a solution.

    Crookham has been injured for 2 years. Why take a chance on him?

    Coaching Staff Next Year

    I am guessing if there was a clear heir or alternative to TnT, Beth would consider it. However, no one has yet to come up with a name that fits that criteria. DT was the big fish and there is not another one around at this point in time. Also, remember, when it came to DT - it was a donor...

    Name three wrestlers...

    I am guessing TnT will try to find the best fit and the best guy than can in the portal. I am also assuming they learned to look for the best fit and be more critical of that aspect. Sometimes the options are not ideal, but they are the options. If it happens to be a second stringer at PSU...

    Stalling

    How about we get rid of the stall warning and just give a point for every time it is called. You have 24 seconds to take a shot in the NBA. They do not say "hey you did not take a shot -this is a warning. They just loose the ball. Same with Football. If you do not run a play in the time...

    If anyone ever needs to see a post that is totally classless - just show them this one.

    Taylor has passed us now.

    DT has his guys wrestling loose in big matches. That is coaching and philosophy. The only way that happens if if he believes it and understands it and exudes it. They get after it and that will continue to bring in the big names. They will continue to wrestle loos and that the best of their...

    Coaching Staff Next Year

    I do not think being able to spot talent is the weak spot of the top coaches. Willy is great at it and is in the information business, but dow anyone really think cael, TnT, and DT need Wilie telling them who is great. I think looking at the 17U/20U world team would give you a pretty good idea...

    Coaching Staff Next Year

    I agree. He is proving to be a coaching genius. He is getting his guys to win the tough matches and get the upsets that people thought were impossible. I would way he has both wings of the bird. Coaching genius and the ability to recruit.

    The Brands have silenced the haters

    No doubt about it. If I were an Iowa fan, I would be extremely proud of the fight the guys exhibited this weekend and most of them are midwestern boys. They are wrestling to their talent level and a lot of that credit goes to TnT for not giving up and instilling the desire to reach their...
