2024 Olympic Redshirt criteria

Of PSU’s 8 returning starters, I think 7 are currently qualified. Six top three finishers at NCAAs (some of whom meet other qualifying criteria too) and Facundo has a couple of cadet world medals.

Dean made the U23 world team but I can’t find any info on medaling at U23, U20 or U17s. Anyone know?
Really no point in worrying about Dean or RBY qualifying. With no eligibility left can’t use a red shirt of any sort.
 
Does it catch anyone else’s attention that wrestling has an old stigma/perception of being a ‘dummy’ sport . . . and then it doesn’t really do itself any favors when the lead organization in the country fails elementary exercises in grammar?

Dear USA Wrestling,

Joey created one list of six criteria.

Bobby aims to meet at least four of the criteria on the list.

Rupert is smart and knows he needs to meet only one criterion on the list of criteria.

Singular, criterion. Plural, criteria.

Sincerely,

I don't think that error is terribly egregious, but I cringe when I see news stories written by supposed professional writers and supposedly reviewed by professional editors that have lines like these:

"Second body of missing kayaker recovered from Salt River"​

"The Cayce Police Department has announced that Sabri Brown, 9, and Isaiah Brown, 10, were safely located."

FYI

Was checking Ticketmaster today. Lots of $40 tix available to final x in Newark.

I noticed the same thing. But never even remotely considered posting about it.

I think this time it was just in good fun. Don't take it personally. (I actually learned something new about criteria vs criterion. So thank you for that.)
My theory is that they are so desperate to be "one of the gang" that as soon as one of their "leaders" shoots out a hate post, they all pile on mindlessly. Think for yourself.

For the record, I have to say I am a wee bit disappointed that only @jayridescarbon seems to have picked up on the stunt I was pulling. This board is usually as sharp as a knife (even if its grammar is less than perfect 😉).

What are the criteria for when a dogpiling is just in good fun?

It's an epidemic. Per Nexstar:

Final approval of the settlement isn’t expected until September, but Facebook users don’t need to wait to file their claim.
You can verify you meet the eligibility requirements on the settlement website. The criteria is pretty simple: “all Facebook users in the United States between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022, inclusive.”
