Things aren't going to well for him right now. That's too bad.

To be honest, I find the whole thing to be weird, not necessarily creepy or sexist.
But hey, what goes around comes around.

He disclosed his personal medical game status to a known NBA bettor. That bettor then placed an $80k bet to win $1.1m on Porter to underperform.

NBA not messing around.

Virginia governor signed into law Thursday morning legislation that will give Virginia universities freedom to provide NIL to student athletes.

Penn State always recruits well under coach James Franklin, but this 2025 class is flirting with top-five status. To grasp the significance of that, consider that Penn State has just three top-10 finishes in the 24-year history of Rivals team rankings.

But what really has my attention is the Nittany Lions are off to such a hot start this cycle despite changing both offensive and defensive coordinators this offseason.

Offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki is one of the bright up-and-coming stars in college football right now. He consistently has productive offenses and skill talent has already taken notice.

The Nittany Lions have a trio of running backs in the fold right now led by four-star

Alvin Henderson who could be a perfect fit in the Big Ten.

Defensive coordinator Tom Allen will certainly have more athletes to work with than he did at Indiana. The team is off to a strong start with three different four-star linebackers in Dayshaun Burnett, Alex Tatsch and DJ McClary.

This, coming from a HVI respected and good poster @vhsalum over at GIA this morning. He states:

"Now the biggie - yes. Kyven was right. The AD has plans to talk to DT. She is dead serious about WINNING chips again. She's not particularly happy with Tom at the moment. The gambling, the ferrari situation, and this performance - she's holding Tom accountable and will be looking to do what will have us beat carl. She is VERY AWARE of the legacy of Iowa wrestling and how we're falling further behind. Like I told you earlier, she shut down AJ coming in in January - she's not a fan and isn't a fan of Tom's decision to bring the circus in. She also told Tom to get a hold of Terry - it's why he's been "less" in the corners.

Now how this got out? Not sure, but it likely means there are Tom loyalists who wanted it leaked. Because the plan was to wait until after the Olympics to talk to DT. So now that its out, not sure if this will accelerate talks or stop them completely."

"I've heard he'll (DT) "listen" - basically, the offer would have to be everything and more."

How would this work with Toms contract running through 2029? Will they both coexist or will Tom get canned for it to work?

"canned"

University of Georgia today. I know PSU was recruiting him but might not have made the finalists.

It was before my time(80s), but a truly awesome Greco Roman match. 😂

I narrowed it down to pre modern era, but after the 50s and 60s, for continuity. Feel free to make changes if you want. I disqualified any Cael wrestler who started out pre Cael.

What’s your guys opinion on this P.A kid the Bucks just landed along with Bouzakis?

I know he’s a JR and #2 nationally at 138, just curious if anyone knows where he projects etc at the next level.

TIA

Did he participate in Spring drills or is he still rehabbing? It would be great if he is full go come Fall camp and for the season..Hoping he can provide DT depth as a run stuffer.

Richie, Dylan, Marty:
What are your opinions? I'm especially interested in the following currently rated 3stars:

RB Barker
WR Samuel
OL Aliciene
OL O'Hara

I think all 4 might be rated as 4star on at least ONE other rating service.

If you could go back in time, and attend any three sporting events that ever happened, in real time and not knowing the outcome, what three would you choose? Mine would be:
3 - Game 7 1960 WorldSeries
2 - Penn state Fiesta Bowl vs Miami.
1 - The Miracle on Ice.

I guess I’m just a Sucker for a good upset.

According to On3, Caitlin Clark's NIL deals are worth approximately $739,000. The young superstar has several active social media profiles, which is a big factor in the NIL projection.Jan 19, 2024.
