There is no such thing as an athletic grant at any Ivy League institution - period. It’s all need based which also applies to living expenses. If there are sources of athletic money as you suggest it has nothing to do with the AD or Admissions and would violate Ivy League By-Laws unless from an NIL collective and approved if over $2K.

The point w/ recruiting visits is that most Ivies will not even pay for the initial recruiting visit (which pisses off some recruits). You pay your own way and then if you commit they bring the entire committed class back at a later date which is then paid for.

Seriously? Needs based? So by that logic no one playing lax or hockey squash tennis etc… received aid. Because very few families that are on those rosters qualify for any “needs” based aid. Who said anything about it being labeled as athletic grants. They are grants administered to athletes. Think about this logically. The demographic that plays the sports that IVY excel at and recruit the best are so called “country club sports”. You think all these recruits are paying their own way? And paying full tuition when they can go anywhere else on scholarship.

Don’t know what sport you have experience with. Regarding the recruiting process but that is not at all true. They “want” to bring in groups. Just like we do at Rutgers with “official” visit weekends. But they are not waiting until you to sign to pay for your visit.
You realize you’re on an island on this one? Others and I in this thread have pointed out personal experiences regarding IVY.
Plus you attached 2 articles that had nothing to do with what you thought they pertained

Knox is an extremely disciplined wrestler. You don’t have to worry about him partying or being stuck between weights.

If he enrolls next year I think it’s a lock that he’s a 4x AA. Guys like him don’t come around very often.

Some reason I started thinking about Bouzakis’s hs credentials.. he was #2 recruit.. and yeah he won 3 S32 and all those freestyle results. I remember Leonard drooling over the possibility of recruiting Bouzakis before he commited to Ohio state. Was Bouzakis viewed as a better hs prospect than Knox prior to college?

Then I started thinking has Bouzakis underperformed relative to his expectations? I was wondering why he went 133 his first two years and it seems he chose to go 133 instead of 125 bc at 125 was only heiselman and Mccrone, both never AA, so I believe Bouzakis chose to 133.. and he hasn’t had any inj im aware of. He only went 125 this year bc of Davino and seems he locked in.

If Bouzakis went to RU and didn’t AA his first two years would RU staff be blamed for that? That he didn’t “fulfill” his potential? Did Bouzakis have the same expectations as Knox does coming into college?? If Knox, for some reason, doesn’t AA his first two years like Bouzakis will the staff at RU be blamed? Some will say Bouzakis hasn’t AA’d yet bc he went 133.. well looking at Ohio state’s roster it seems like that was totally Bouzakis’s choice. It’s not like they had Spencer Lee manning 125 so he was forced to 133. I mean it feels like everyone is penciling Knox as a guaranteed 4xAA but wasn’t this the same view of Bouzakis?

I know ppl can lose bud. I’m the one that’s been saying not every top recruit pans out for w.e reasons. There’s some on this forum that always think top recruit always pans out unless of some *insert* excuse/reason.

I never thought LL was untouchable either. Some ppl are too high on his freestyle results.

Yes I agree, and I’m a little surprised with all those accomplishments he was only #4 class recruit. Probably would be #1 in most years.

This loser was an academic scholar and two time american and has a very successful business. And that's coming from some butt sniffer of a head coach who's regressed our program to the point that a majority of the posters want him to resign. You're the only zero that thinks she's doing a great job.

Unequivocally false.

Listen to what you are saying. It’s true because a friend who knows a guy told me so.

Was this the same “friend” that told you about the transfers?

2 options. Get new “friends”. Or stop believing everything you hear from everybody.

what’s worse and more dangerous than option 2 is when you then come and regurgitate that hearsay, most of the time disparaging kids.

be better

It's not about disparaging anybody , it's about telling the truth. Unless you have some kind of refuting facts, bring it.

How do you prove someone didn’t get a DUI? Your job is to prove he did if you’re so confident about it.

But you can’t because you’re a loser who has nothing better to do than make up lies on a message board.

It’s not the truth dumb dumb.

Court records
  • Arrests, charges, indictments, convictions, and sentencing
  • searchable through:
    • State or county court websites
    • Clerk of Court databases
  • Anyone can access these unless the record is sealed or expunged
Incarceration records
  • Prison sentences and jail rosters

    Bottom line. You’re a chatty Cathy that gossips and spreads rumors like an old lady in a knitting class.

The amount of homophobic comments you make is concerning. Usually only happens by people hiding something. Anything you want to tell us?

Regardless, you continue to prove how big of a loser you are.

Bro why are you trying to force a fight between the father of one of the top recruits in school history and a Rutgers wrestling alum. Crackers may be trolling from time to time but your rants and non stop comments about it on every single thread is worse than anything he does. Just mute him if u don’t like him that much and not ruin every single wrestling discussion we have on here. Just let it go
