The iconic sports magazine may be history. Failed to pay licensing agreement and is laying off almost entire staff.

The NCAA released its First Coaches Ranking for 2024 today. See link. https://www.themat.com/news/2024/ja...g-for-2024-division-i-wrestling-championships

It looks like it was voted on before the weekend so the only PSU wrestlers ranked are Davis 11, Nagao 2 (no Fix or Vito), Bartlett 2 and Mesenbrink 7. You need 8 matches to be ranked and Haines, Truax and Brooks got their 8th yesterday. Kerkvliet is at 7 and Starocci 8.

How did an impromptu dunk session in front of Ty Howle earn 2025 tight end Hayden Bradley an offer from Penn State?

The rising prospect talks about the offer and his upcoming visit to Happy Valley.

Would be quite the feat. The Ravens look like the best team in the NFL right now.

Nebraska at home so Carvered not the issue.

It seems that KLS and others intend to stay.

I'm haven't been too optimistic about the quality of players who might enter the portal in April but I forgot that grad students can transfer at any time. Maybe something there.

Good God have they been hit hard with injuries. All out for the season:

Sasso, Gallagher, Kharchla, and Hoffman

That's tough. I almost feel bad for TanTom. Almost.

Very anxious to see how this goes…………

He's getting to be a very valuable part of the rotation for coach Rhoades

Iowa/Purdue will start at 125.
