I am about 2 miles down the road toward Ephrata getting ready to show a house. Small world.Yeah. Wished I could be here more. My daughter and son in law live in Akron area. My grandsons first birthday party is today.
Well if it wouldn't be so rude I'd jump in the car and meet you. I guess my daughter want to eat at a restaurant called Nanna Rossa tonight. I come out here alot more now that grandson is here. Maybe we can get together sometime. Do you golf?I am about 2 miles down the road toward Ephrata getting ready to show a house. Small world.
Who Nagao?We seriously think he may commit tonight? It's been an off season for the ages.
I think if we’re getting any, and we will most likely, it will be soon. Not some insider info, just makes sense. Finally on the visit, don’t really want to put off the decision into May, etc.Who Nagao?
That's what it read like, but he indicated he'd be announcing later this month so not holding my breath.Who Nagao?
I read each and every post dedicated to hating one single poster and I also comprehended how all 132 posts ruined every thread. It's boring and nobody cares about how much you hate someone. It's not what most of us come here for. Most of us want wrestling takes.Tell me you didn't read and comprehend without telling me you didn't read and comprehend.
Makes sense since he said he wants to take his visits,If he hasn’t already been to Ithaca, I suspect Aaron might take that trip before announcing anything.
PSU will most certainly come back to earth once Lilledahl and Sealey graduate.Lilledahl and Sealey win gold overseas:
If Nagao is spotted in church with the PSU coache's families, it could be a done deal.Who Nagao?
So you read this post and called it hating?I read each and every post dedicated to hating one single poster and I also comprehended how all 132 posts ruined every thread.

Not even remotely the same. Predicting injury for a future competition is not the same as suggesting leaving an injured brother behind. One is a prediction, the other is occurring.I don't disagree with you one bit. Just keep in mind that what this is, is not just a forum to talk about wrestling. It is a community. We discuss a lot of things here and wrestling, specifically being PSU wrestling fans is the glue that binds us. Like most good communities, we welcome others with differing views. We have shown that many times. However, what makes a good community is community standards. At GIA, to a large extent the inmates have taken over the asylum. They revel in it by referring to it as The Cesspool. Is that what we want here? So when anyone posts shyte like Robbie Howard will never make it through a season. Or Robbie Howard won't make it through a single match without a career ending injury, the hammer should come down swiftly and made clear that type of comment isn't appropriate in our community. You're a military man. How would you have reacted to one of your guys suggesting you leave an injured brother behind? I bet not well.
Not even remotely true. You can choose to let something go, in most cases it is your need you are fulfilling when you decide to confront. I can see certain circumstances where there is a need to confront such as coming to the defense of someone in a time of need (racial slurs yelled at wrestler) but if someone yells that a wrestler was pinned, you can choose not to engage and it does mean you are affirming their opinion. I agree a person betting on a wrestler getting injured should most likely be met with a respectful counter-point but all those that chose not to respond were not affirming it was true. Examples used were extreme to prove point not for further debate.Now speaking specifically to the idiot reference. That was not appropriate either. I think that response was unfairly lumping your opinion alongside one that suggested we needed to fill a hole as a result of Robbie Howard's next injury that hasn't happened yet. A poster that challenged others to a bet that Howard would indeed be injured. I was sitting with Robbie and his father at Spire after he re-injured his shoulder at the U20 Team trials last summer. Robbie knew that he had a problem and the look on the kid's face sucked.
So if I'm going to be a member of this community, I'm not going to stand by and allow some anonymous poster to spew that Robbie's wrestling dreams will never be realized, without a rebuttal. My choice of rebuttal is to do it through GIFs using a little bit of humor. If that can't be accepted as a form of disapproval, then I don't know what would be. Silence is affirmation

Did he visit Iowa already?If he hasn’t already been to Ithaca, I suspect Aaron might take that trip before announcing anything.
Take it off the board. Damn, dudeSo you read this post and called it hating?
Not a frat boy. Not an insider. I'm not even an insider on this board who engages in the typical back and forth banter but I also think you come across as schtick and the times you are correct you are boastful but I cannot recall admitting errors. Not trying to start something here but thought maybe feedback from someone else that somewhat agrees with them might alter your perception. Also strengthening your position through anonymous name dropping seems immature.
Then you read this post defending PSUgo and call it hating?

Maybe you should let it go and stick to wrestling because your generalizations just don't hold water.
I was with clients all evening anyway. I don't golf, but I am know to go out for an occasional cocktail!Well if it wouldn't be so rude I'd jump in the car and meet you. I guess my daughter want to eat at a restaurant called Nanna Rossa tonight. I come out here alot more now that grandson is here. Maybe we can get together sometime. Do you golf?
How is the surfing there? Any snorkeling opportunities?The weather in Iceland is supposed to be lovely this time of year.
The mustard plants are in full bloom out here in California….
And the effin’ garlic mustard is popping up along roadsides and other abused places here in New England.The mustard plants are in full bloom out here in California….
Ticks are bad already this year.Any intel coming out of the weekend?
But, but, but …. We’re not the best light weight room in the country 😜I believe he left Minnesota in the discussion because he genuinely likes his coaches and his teammates.
Nagao is a smart guy who recognizes his own potential. I believe he will choose Penn State and the NLWC because they will provide him with the best opportunity to be a 3-time NCAA Champion, win an Olympic gold medal, and be a World Champion.
Was just coming to post this. I was looking through FLO’s portal list and Spratley was on there for today. They don’t list the no contact portion thoughReports are that Troy Spratley in the portal with no contact requested.

I’ve seen a poster use the abbreviation “PS” instead of “PSU” when referring to the university. Sacrilege 🥸What would Bo “Nickel” and “Zane” Retherford say about that?
Spratley moved to Oklahoma while in high school.3 things stood out in Spratley’s bio:
1. Hometown is Norwich NY
2. Attended Wyoming Seminary
3. Younger brother named Cael
Joe says otherwise.I’ve seen a poster use the abbreviation “PS” instead of “PSU” when referring to the university. Sacrilege 🥸
Anyone with any pride wouldn’t stand for that 😉
Hmmm. Soon after Bernie and Nagao visiting PSU.
So you're thinking Bernie to Iowa? Is he really worth $250k? Why not use those resources on a young kid who could him them in the future. Iowa isnt competing with us next year.I'm guessing it is Bernie as he cancelled his trip to ISU. Iowa perhaps made him an offer he can't refuse.
I guess we get to find out if it takes a quarter million to convince someone to live in Iowa City*.I'm guessing it is Bernie as he cancelled his trip to ISU. Iowa perhaps made him an offer he can't refuse.
I don't think it matters as long as the most delusional fan base in all of athletics believes the playing field is leveled. Remember they are counting on multiple things happening.So you're thinking Bernie to Iowa? Is he really worth $250k? Why not use those resources on a young kid who could him them in the future.
