Facundo looking good

Now let me preface this, with the knowledge that his freestyle has always been a strength, but, I saw something this weekend. I think he has jumped levels. You can tell he has worked with Dake. His neutral is markedly better, he has angles now that he gets to. His defense is better also, and he looks a lot stronger. Thoughts on this fellas?

2024 Olympic Team Trials previews - April 19 & 20

Coming up in in less than a month. April 19th-20th. I’ll post the entire list of qualifiers but first look at 74kg. Absolutely loaded! Whoever comes out will be battle tested. I’m hoping it’s Nolf but still think Dake wins it. I’m most interested to see how Mesenbrink does against this group of killers though

DelcoPanther was right KLS only getting looks from Akron, Bowling Green etc.

Just kidding Delco. Penn State wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith has scheduled his first two official visits, a source tells On3.

The fifth-year player led the Nittany Lions with 53 catches for 673 yards and four touchdowns in 2023. Texas A&M, Auburn, Colorado, Georgia, USC and West Virginia were among the teams who contacted the wide receiver. KeAndre Lambert-Smith, who is 6-foot-1 and 184 pounds, leaves a Penn State team looking to make the first edition of the 12-team College Football Playoff.

A source tells On3 that Lambert-Smith will visit Auburn from Thursday to Saturday. He will close out the weekend traveling to College Station, visiting Texas A&M from Saturday to Monday.

I guess he was not worth a little NIL $, since: Voila, over night, CJF says the receiver room is loaded with talent. I'm guessing he will get a little NIL love now. Just guessing.

Honestly, I think the passing game will thrive as long as Wallace and Evans stay healthy and develop and the backs play a more prominent role in the passing game. The TEs will do well, too.

No matter, I hope the double standard with NIL for transfers in vs HS recruits doesn't lose PSU some of these talented youngsters CJF is talking about. I kinda doubt that partial scholarships and minimal NIL vs NIL and full scholarships isn't gonna keep young talent in the fold very long. I hope I am wrong. We will find out in the fall and next spring. Onward....

Carter's FLO video.....

Apparently just went up. He talked some about the trials and the problems with trying to cut, trying to heal and to wrestle at a high level. What may be more interesting is that he now says that he's MORE LIKELY THAN NOT returning (he says 60/40 in favor of returning). He also mentions that Cael mentioned the possibility of him bumping to 197 for next year. Hmmmmmmm.......

Remember Gregg Doyel, the giant douche from CBS sports

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.
