    2027 Recruiting Thread

    If we only hadn't started the stadium renovation project, had more NIL buy-in sooner, had more alignment, a new offensive coordinator, a new defensive coordinator, a new AD, and paid him more money after the ND loss, James Franklin would have won a national championship at PSU. Did I miss any...

    Will we get Will Wood?

    Franklin paid Olesh $1M to be TE 3/4 on the roster. If he wants to overpay for Borque to be QB3 at VT, let him do it. The portal matters much more than standard recruiting.

    Suffering thru CLE courses today so my License isn't suspended. I p-ll this sh-t every year.

    TRTCLE - $75 bucks for 6 credits. Just fast forward for the codes. Other 6 in person, which sucks

    “Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby to enter gambling addiction program”

    This generation has replaced drinking and social engagement with gambling and TikTok. In the old days, you used to have to get dressed and inhale cigarette smoke next to other degenerates frittering away your paycheck. Now you can do it from the comfort of your toilet.

    FC/OT: Franklin tells USA Today PSU’s NIL budget in 2024-25 was $7mm. PSU says close to $14mm.

    This should help us all move on from Franklin: "You go through that deal, and you're thinking, I don't want to let them off the hook financially," Franklin said. "That's something you're struggling with. But it wasn't about me penalizing Penn State. At that point, it was about what do I need...

    2025-26 PSU MBB Thread

    At this point, just take PSU's NIL money for basketball and divide it amongst wrestling and hockey. PSU had no history to speak of pre-NIL, and habitually paid some of the lowest coaching salaries in the conference. Now with NIL, unless we get a Marc Cuban type who is going to earmark a ton of...

    The 3-Point Takedown - Folkstyle's Sea Change

    3 point takedown, 3 point reversal, 1 point for a force out if you have opponent’s leg and opponent doesn’t have your leg/ankle in scramble (rewards aggressive wrestler who can’t finish edge takedown). No review of force outs.

    Step Out rule. MUST CHANGE THIS YEAR

    Middle ground: if attacking wrestler shoots and has control of the opposing wrestler’s leg or ankle and the defensive wrestler goes off the mat, 1 point. Rewards those who attack edge wrestlers. Leg in the air and don’t want to burn energy in a split scramble - push them out and take the 1.

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

    Overall thoughts: 13 National Championships in the last 15 years. Cael is 3 championships away from breaking Gable's record and he's only in his late 40's. PSU broke its overall points record for the third consecutive year despite 2 non-AA's and Duke/Blaze leaving points on the board. 4...

    2026 NCAA Championship Session VI Thread

    If you’re Luke, hard to shoot when your opponent constantly backs up and grabs fingers for 7 minutes. Good job by Luke to win against a guy who didn’t want to wrestle

    The OK St maneuver is to grab fingers to slow our guys down.

    Caliendo and Sorensen, two Iowa guys who always battled but were stuck facing all time greats. Props to Caliendo
