Probably zero.
I knew twins at PSU who subbed for each other on dates. Doubt their parents had anything to do with that either.

Just another example of kids poor behavior because they weren’t taught otherwise.
Or, something completely harmless in the big picture.
Really. Anybody here able to withstand that microscope in 9th grade thru college? (Anybody who says yes is a liar.)
I think this is a big deal and deserves some kind of suspension. This was a case of blatantly cheating at a premier national tournament. If I were in charge, I’d suspend them from any Team USA freestyle events for at least a calendar year.
How would people feel if the kids took steroids? Would we say “they are only 15, no big deal.” They cheated. Got caught. They deserve to be suspended. Not forever, but something significant.

I'd be ok if this guy had to walk them to the scales for every weigh-in for the next year
Bingo. They made a mistake and should face consequences.
Also it's not a forever stain on them. They shouldn't be branded as red flags. Their parents are not failures. One incident doesn't make them the Downeys.
If the behavior continues, that's a different story.
I dated a twin while in college. You mean I may have slept with both of them? Were the twins you knew Pi Phi's?
They weren't. And if you say you did, who's gonna dispute it?
Yeah, you had to be sitting on the other side of the field. It is only going to spell “ahia” from one side.
I totally get this sentiment, but I'm fairly positive coaches aren't allowed all throughout weigh-ins. And... Major tournament weigh-ins are an absolute cluster****. They could have easily gotten in line, the heavy one just kept standing in line while the other gained possession of both USA cards/weigh-in slips. The adult easily could've had no clue.
Not making excuses for anybody (as this is kinda serious IMO... not serious enough for a huge punishment, but does need serious addressing), but as a coach... They could've been pulling a fast one on the adults in their circle, too.
Interesting- I didn’t know coaches aren’t part of the weigh-in process. I’m a volleyball mom 😅
Only one (maybe two?) Pi Phi or me. If you want to talk Chi-O's I have a much larger number.
If the coaches didn't know about this can you imagine the workout they'd get the next week in practice??
Well I know of one XO that is on morning TV every day that built a prodigious hit list at PSU.Only one (maybe two?) Pi Phi or me. If you want to talk Chi-O's I have a much larger number.
When I was 15, weigh-ins were a joke. In Jr. Hi we were weighed in in the morning by the AD. We had this big meat scale. The counter weights had a hole in the bottom that were exactly the size of a quarter. That gained everyone about a half a pound. I don't think my little brother ever came close to being on weight. He'd get on the scale, the AD would be moving the slide and looking closely. There was guy on the HS team who always came to the Jr Hi weigh-ins. He would sidle up to my brother who was on the scale and lift his elbow. It was embarrassing the way the weight would drop just as the AD slid the scale down to 75 pounds. He never caught on - or he didn't care.
Great article highlighting the PSU recruits, current wrestlers, and the NLWC athletes performances at the open

The 4 Biggest Takeaways For Penn State Fans After The US Open - FloWrestling
A breakdown of the biggest storylines for all things Penn State Wrestling after the 2023 US Open.
I was a recipient of that……pretended I didn’t know, and worked out for me!

OIHO >> this is where they move the “I” up. In the age of Instagram …. it is an accepted practice.
I can't do my family dirty by posting the pic, but my brother inlaw is from Columbus and of course a giant bucknut fan. Once recently when he and his 3 boys came for a visit to State College, they thought it'd be cute for them to get a pic spelling Ohio "YMCA" style in front of Old Main. I was thrilled to be the photographer when I realized they made this exact same spelling error. That pic has gotten a LOT of miles. Bottom line: spelling in the public schools must be like getting off bottom, over there..... 🤣
Should be a flag for not posting the pic. But, I’m picking it up since you apparently took the pic without correcting their spelling.👍
First we have Spencer's dad holding an interview (post #504 in this thread in case you missed it) with Pyles acting as a facilitator yet neglecting to ask the only question that needed to be asked that being "What's wrong with Spencer?".
Now we have an 8 minute long video of Pyles defending Spencer. Why is he doing this? Is he being paid by an Iowa booster? Perhaps Lar offered to let him see the binder?
