Moron. You’re in for a few more surprises in 2023. This year is going to suck for you. Stop believing what you read. You’re being led by other morons.

some losers can't take a joke but it might end up being true!they will all love him!
Unfortunately for his future opponents, I believe that switch has been flipped on in his match against Maryland. He's been on an absolute tear since.
Not an Air Force vehicle. US Army.
From the same manufacturer: he'd fit into the V-22. It's primarily USMC, with USAF owning the special operations variant. Hendrickson isn't that much bigger than some of the Marine pilots.
I remember that air show back when I was a kid. That c5a was huge.
Hmmmm.
Which of these is the best lightweight (125-49) room in the country?
1/2, 3, 3
1/2, 1/2
1/2, 6, 6

I assume you are referring to the Ramos interview immediately after he walked off the mat. This one is great too. Super impressive kid.
Max illustrates a mindset that I think the coaches do a good job of developing in our wrestlers. When asked in the interview what's next for Max, he mentioned: "I would enjoy staying in wrestling, but I certainly don't need it." For some people wrestling (or name something else) is everything, and when that doesn't go their way, they're devastated. It puts tremendous pressure on them. I remember what Tony Dungy once said when he was head coach of the Colts. (Paraphrased) "The guys that have something in their life more important than football generally outperform those for whom football is everything. They don't have that tremendous pressure that losing means the loss of everything." Tony Dungy was speaking from the perspective of his faith in God. It's interesting how many of the wrestlers interviewed (not just PSU guys) gave credit to their faith in God.
Do you expect Chittum to make 149? I know he was wrestling at a higher weight in freestyle but not sure if he was cutting any weight. Would be big for you guys if he can make 149
He can sit in an air-conditioned office at Edwards AFB and fly a drone halfway around the world.
And if RBY decides to sign up, maybe the Darkstar would be about the right speed for him.
Good illustration of the philosophical differences between Cael and TNT. Cael views wrestling as one small element in the grand scheme of life. His focus is on effort and improvement and if his guys win, that’s a bonus.
TNT view wrestling as the essence of life. Their focus in on winning at all costs. And if their guys lose they are failures. No wonder Iowa wrestlers learn to hate the sport. Anything short of perfection is disastrous.
Look at the difference in how Max and Spencer responded to their losses. Max personifies a warrior who is grateful for the opportunity to compete. I greatly admire him for that.
Spencer is a broken man. If he were a leader he would have put his teammates first and been there for them today. He’s right about one thing. Excuses are for wusses, and he has no excuse for abandoning his team.
I think Lee is showing a little bit of emotional immaturity today. If he were to get some good advice, (as he would get at NLWC) he would be guided to understand that his loss today is showing him a weak area that he needs to work on. At one point, although somewhat begrudgingly, Gable acknowledged that his experience at his loss to Owings showed him that he still had a weakness which was his mental state. He resolved afterwards to not let events outside of his control affect his own performance. Lee needs to learn to just accept what happened and move forward. If he keeps stewing about losing yesterday, he will have a lot of trouble improving himself later.
LOL I certainly don't beleive anything you write!!
So is 7 guys in the top 3 good? What a performance so far!! Up to this point this is the best top to bottom performance I have ever seen from PSU. What Cael and company continue to do to have these guys peak at the national tournament is truly special. I’ve never seen a team that year after year has their best performances when it counts the most like Caels teams have. It’s extraordinary. One of the best parts is how this team is still fairly young and with the recruits coming in this train shouldn’t be slowing down at all. What a time to be a fan of PSU wrestling!!
When I was at PSU Mont Alto in '82-'83 we'd drive 15 minutes to Hagerstown to drink. MD had grandfathered in 18 year olds by '82 or something like that. I was a 17 yo freshman but no one carded back then. Lowenbrau at Pizza Hut was big back. Another place we went had backgammon tables.
by the way your the one passing out name calling just like a good little maga boy!
Absolutely I remember. Inside, they had all the stats of what would fit Inside the plane. I specifically remember how many ping ping balls was listed. Lol
Yeah, I hope we haven't seen the best of Spencer because he lost the match between his ears.
A little help for those that can't find the Test/Politics Board:

Don't muck this board up with crap.

Would you two move the politics somewhere else?
not here for politics.
not here for politics.
Even numbers not good.
In fairness, I do think Tom Brands once quoted Dan Gable as saying something to the effect (after a loss) to go out and get the best that you can. In other words, if 3rd place is the best you can get, you try to get it.
So, either Spencer is really hurt, or he is too devastated to compete. If it’s the latter, that will haunt him forever.
So there is nothing to the Lee family trashing PSU to recruits etc. Based on his mom's reaction it seems they are a bit over invested.
Yanni tweeted some very nice things about SVN. I wished he hadn't done that...
Even if they do, we'll catch up and tie them next year
We should care exactly zero.
If they have, so what? It hasn't exactly affected our recruiting.
Is that true? I have heard about the “binder” but do not think that I have heard any specific’s associated with it or his parents.
Let the politics off the board that's for stupid people
The whole moron reacks of hr. What happened to civility. Starting a conversation with moron is a non starter.
Don't engage those types next thing we will be neck deep in conspiracy theories and uneducated guessing games lol
I was looking at the past team scores for PSU at the NCAA's, with Cael coaching.

This year we are currently at 127.5, which would rank 7th. So with 4 points for each wrestler getting 1st place, we could possibly break our record with 147.5 points. Tall task I know, but possible.

Holy hyperbole. Haunt him forever? C'mon, man. Even if it's the latter and Lee grows to regret his decision, he won't be "haunted forever". Good grief.
