Not sure why people don't look at the portal as recruiting because that's what it is. Just because it's not a HS kid that doesn't mean he wasn't "recruited". With some guys it's known a year ahead of time hes gonna portal next year so he's then a target just like a HS kid would be
Bc it is, just love for Lisa's dong

The $$$ in wrestling is a rounding error to football and basketball. Also the talent pool is vastly smaller. I am not a fan of portal hopping and it needs to be governed better. It exists and it is what it is, but I believe the sport would be better off if there wasn't a constant raiding of other teams talent.
I could be wrong but thought with the 5 for 5, there was also a 1 time only transfer throughout college career. That should slow it down.

Slander of Fruity Pebbles is acceptable. Have to eat it like your Kobayashi, just to enjoy it.

Yogurt? Is she a communist?

I’m a crunchberries fan myself. Or Peanut Butter cereal. Need to get my daily recommended allowance of Thiamine somewhere
We burn commies in these here parts…seriously though, there are so many worse things she could be eating. I am happy she is at least finding a way to get calcium into her diet!

Since this is a recruiting thread, do we have any thoughts on who else to look for in the 2028 class? We’re off to a great start with Bachmann and Kenny, but who else should we be looking at? I know Matty O’Neil was thrown out there already. Idk how Sammy Sanchez would fit into the class but you would never say no to making it work.

No one is the bigger waste of talent than TanTom. And refuses to change a thing.

He's gotten 7 total AA finishes from 14 postseason appearances from Mendez, Bouzakis, Feldman and Kharchla.
Seems like maybe head coaches on the wrong side of 50 and known to be stubborn in their methods aren't the best way to win championships?

They make fruit loops with marshmallows now . It's lucky charms on steroids
Did you know that all Froot Loops are the same flavor, just different colors?
I agree I couldn’t understand what he was writing as well. Just gibberish.
It wasnt that hard. In other sports, transferring isnt a big deal for either the athlete or the receiving team. In wrestling, it's talked about like a mortal sin.
