    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    He should have stayed at CSUB. The coaches there seemed to know how to handle him, and he might have ended stayed long enough to graduate.

    Great coaches help athletes maximize heir abilities. Would CSUB win a team national title with Gable or Cael coaching? No, but each athlete could be significantly improved.

    Check this Google search out regarding our own Jeff Byers

    Byers is a true radio announcer. He gives the listener the ability to visualize exactly what is happening. I went to grad school with a visually impaired guy. His dad was the basketball announcer for a DC university (American or GW maybe) and his dad announced it so his son could follow exactly...

    As a fan, which NCAA loss left the biggest bruise?

    PJ’s loss because he won on the mat and Cenzo’s because he is one of my all time favorites and I thoroughly expected him to win. Then COVID taking his last opportunity to win another one makes it an even harder pill to swallow

    Best Part of the Offseason

    I am as big a sports fan as there is. I just don’t understand piling on the athlete when the sacrifice and time they are obviously giving their best to try and win. I am a less understanding of professional athletes, most of whom are older and “should” be more mature. Legally or not, young...

    Who impressed you the least? 2026 NCAA Championship Edition

    Caliendo shook hands after the match ended. Maybe standing there and watching Mitch get the medal, again, was just really difficult and he didn’t feel the need to shake hands again. I am sure members of the board are giving it way more thought than Messenbrink. I know I have never lost on the...

    Not me, as much as I dislike the Buckeyes, I would rather wonder “high school senior” boy loses in the finals

    Blaze with headgear off- doesn’t look like he expects the call to go his way

    2026 NCAA Championship Session III Thread

    Back from PA and listened to Byers for the entire Session 3. I thought I would miss watching it on TV, but listening to him call the matches is its own kind of joy. The suspense when you can’t see it, and then his call can’t be beat. I must have looked like a lunatic punching car and screaming...

    I know- grown men probably sitting on the couch drinking beer hating on a college kid working his butt off is not a good look
