Well I had Mrs Warner hunt me down and get in my face from a section away for raising my arm in victory, just like Kasak did, albeit without her son draped on my shoulder.I don’t think anybody is saying people couldn’t have done better. I’m just questioning what exactly requires defense against a finger gesture. IMO about a “c’mon, man, be better!” at a non-threatening distance is about the max response needed.
He ruled potentially dangerous even though neutral danger existed.Who the hell was reffing that melee, Angel Rivera? I distinctly saw a takedown, but no 3 was given, even after review.
Funn
Funny how nobody has managed to do that to either Ferrari, or to the Mason Beckmans of the past ... when it's so easy.
Maybe because they're on a knee out of range.
Don't be so dense. You're smarter than this.
We liked her enough before you don't need to sell us on this..Well I had Mrs Warner hunt me down and get in my face from a section away for raising my arm in victory, just like Kasak did, albeit without her son draped on my shoulder.
Luckily no fingers or fists were thrown at anyone. And Roar had my back!
Should either of us “been better?”
I know I can always count on you to have my back also! Pawrestlerintn always speaks highly of you!We liked her enough before you don't need to sell us on this..
I'm afraid we love her now.
The video shows when the fight broke out Knox ran up in the stands and started punching a 16 yr old that he was chirping back and forth with all day, the kid wasn’t fighting and wasn’t near Knox dad so the whole “help his dad “narrative is just what SJV and Mineo have been putting out as damage control , knox jr just went to settle his own score which is why he left in handcuffs.Also, Knox's dad "confronted" the gentleman by walking across the gym, going into the stands where he knew the opposing side who clearly did not like the SJV people were sitting. Now, the person showing the birds to the SJV wrestler who lost is classless, but does Knox's dad not have the ability to control himself to the point where he needs to do what he did. As for Knox himself, if I saw my dad go into an opposing sides area and get into a fight I am not sure I would be thinking clearly either and might have jumped in as well. He probably was not thinking anything other than " I have to help my dad". I put the blame for this entirely on the father.
Also, from the video, it sure looked like Mrs. Knox was holding the kid from behind while her son was throwing hands.The video shows when the fight broke out Knox ran up in the stands and started punching a 16 yr old that he was chirping back and forth with all day, the kid wasn’t fighting and wasn’t near Knox dad so the whole “help his dad “narrative is just what SJV and Mineo have been putting out as damage control , knox jr just went to settle his own score which is why he left in handcuffs.
For the record I’m from NJ and been a knox fan and hope he has a lot of success in college (unless he ends up at Iowa) but he’s 19 and assaulted a minor on camera and it’s national news so the state didn’t have any other choice but to suspend him
Whoa, Alex T. Clemsen sighting!
I will give Mrs. Knox the benefit of the doubt and go with the "ineffective peacekeeper" explanation. If I had to venture a guess, I think going into the stands was the last place Mrs. Knox wanted to go. I am sure she is none too pleased with her husband and son. Ineffective peacekeeper is a great term and I am bummed my LE career is over or I would have gladly used that in one of my reports : ). My report might have read something like this: "Due to Lisa Morales' extreme intoxication, general lack of social skills, and diminutive stature she was an ineffective peacekeeper."Also, from the video, it sure looked like Mrs. Knox was holding the kid from behind while her son was throwing hands.
Maybe not, but at best she was an ineffective peacekeeper.
In any case, we have a new nominee for parents who should sit directly behind Terry at NCAAs.

Star N.J. wrestler won’t lose spot on Ivy League team because of brawl, coach says
Former Delbarton 4-time state champion Mike Grey spoke to his recruit after his DQ.www.nj.com
Cornell sending a contingent of Lawyers.Knox has appealed the ruling. Hearing at 10:30 am tomorrow
I thought it came out he threw punchesGive me a f ing break. You see your dad up in stands going at it, and you expect him to sit on his hands?
Knox Jr wasn’t involved in the altercation but to run to bleachers to make sure your dad ok shouldn’t be a reason for suspension
So every athlete’s parents should start fights when opposing fans are being, fans and doing what fans do to rivals You ever been to a Steelers vs ravens or browns or bungles game ? Or eagles vs their division I mean come on They got what they deservedJust to give some insight into the situation. SJV wrestled in a new district then they normally do and wrestling in a district that’s nearly an hour and a half away from them. The gym was unhappy with SJV being part of their district since only top 3 from each weight advance from districts to regions and SJV qualified all but 1 weight (2 now with the DQ of Knox).
The gym was not happy with SJVs success that day and when the SJV 190lber lost in the finals, a few parents from the other schools showed their spirit and 1 father of another team was showing his middle finger to the wrestler that just lost. That is when Knox’s dad confronted the gentleman. Not saying it was the right move and defending him, but i respect him for sticking up for a wrestler that cannot. Anthony Jr should have known better
Paywalled, but the arrested parent was Anthony Knox's dad.
Found it on Reddit FWIW. Apparently the fans cheered when one of Knox's teammates lost. Another of Knox's teammates started yelling at the fans, and an adult in the stands flipped that kid the bird. At that point, Knox Sr went up into the stands to confront that guy. Somebody (maybe the bird flipper?) shoved Knox Sr, and the stands erupted into a brawl.
Just another day in New Jersey.
Nobody got DQed from SJV, since everyone who qualified from District 25 is now listed in the Region 7 brackets, including #1 @126 Anthony Knox. That could change, but I'd think it unlikely.
(edit)
Looking much more likely than not (see below).
You are correct, my statement was worded poorly. I honestly forgot who finished 2nd last year. I guess winning by over 100 will do that. Cornell only had 3 AAs, so it’s not like they had some incredible tournament.2024 NCAA Tournament Results:

Quit being melodramatic, what’s the chance of someone from Iowa being able to read?Fans can be crazy especially parents.

In street self defense cases, confronting someone in the way he did may be seen as escalating things. It's funny how people think they played in part in the situation .I love how people extoll the virtues of the life lessons that wrestling teaches but then make excuses and start waffling when the consequences get tough.
The people involved should face the appropriate consequences. Doesn't matter if you were provoked or not. Either control your emotions OR do what you think is right fully ready to accept the consequences of your actions.
That's being a bad-ass. Not throwing shade on Knox' dad, no idea if that's his attitude or not, just in the people already making excuses for him.
You're correct.I was friends with Ryan Jimmo, who was in the top 10 of the UFC light heavyweight division for a time. Looked like he could kill any normal person without effort, but a really nice guy.
On the night he proposed to his fiancée they were out on a date and got in a road rage altercation. Both vehicles pulled into a parking lot, Ryan got out to “discuss things” and the two guys in the other car ran him over and killed him. Had he not been so sure he could settle things physically I’m sure he would never have exited the vehicle.
Regardless of if Knox Sr was an MMA pro, not ever a good idea to get into a physical altercation, or put yourself into a situation where it could get physical. Lots of things can happen.
They have a poor understanding of how self defense works .This is a bunch of BS, sports parents have been living vicariously through their kids for years. He gets his adrenaline going by watching his son and has to show what a tough guy he is. Even if he didn't throw the first punch he's still at fault for getting involved at all. If there were racial slurs being thrown around then you talk to somebody who is running the event and ask to have the people removed, under no circumstances should you confront somebody because that's not your job.
And what's up with the kid? Mr. "I'm gonna protect my family" needs to be smart enough to know that protecting your family is trying to break up the fight or pull your family out of it, your job isn't to start throwing fists.
IMO NJ has to uphold this decision or you're going to have incidents every night. If you let him wrestle you're pretty much telling athletes and their dipshit parents that it's okay to fight in the stands because there won't be repercussions.
Thanks for the context. I mildly differ where the line of “sticking up for” is positioned. Somewhat happy my son looks to be interested in cross country and possibly track. Not too many brawls over a wider elbow on the last turn of an 800 race.
I’m not sure the Cornell administration cares too much about wrestling. Some academics don’t have a lot of respect for the sport. Think, “Stanford HAS to keep wrestling.” They let Max Dean leave…But Cornell HAS to keep Knox. He’s the only remotely top tier guy they’ve landed the past cycle or 2.
Wow, that's a really high bar you are setting here. Did you also forget who finished third two years ago? Is the only definition of "incredible tournament" to have more than three AAs, or to finish within 100 points of Penn State? Flo had Cornell ranked fifth prior to the tournament, by the way.You are correct, my statement was worded poorly. I honestly forgot who finished 2nd last year. I guess winning by over 100 will do that. Cornell only had 3 AAs, so it’s not like they had some incredible tournament.
My thoughts about Cornell have more to do with recent recruiting. Outside of Shapiro, I feel like the last 4-5 years we’ve not been in many recruiting battles with the Big Red. To be fair, nobody has challenged us. And let’s be honest, we may have dodged a bulletin with Shapiro (more injury related) and landed a stud in Kasak.
But Cornell HAS to keep Knox. He’s the only remotely top tier guy they’ve landed the past cycle or 2. And that’s being favorable to Knox. I’m not sure how hard Cael, DT, or the hobbits went after Knox.
A few years ago Cornell felt like the top 1-2 threat to us. Now I feel like OSU, tOSU, and Iowa (you could probably make a case for a few other teams ) are in a way better situation than Cornell is.
Hard to understand given that there is video evidence of what he did.Court hearing is going on now. It is being streamed by NJCOURTS if anyone wants to check it out. His lawyer is going after it and saying Knox was not given due process in investigation
It seems like Knox's attorney is arguing that due process has not been followed. That includes providing to the defense the evidence that was used by the board to make its ruling, and being given the opportunity to argue the evidence (and possibly provide other evidence). Seeing videos on social and other media is not legal evidence.Hard to understand given that there is video evidence of what he did.
Regardless, his school should suspend him for this. Most private schools have honor codes and even if they didn't it is not representative of any school values. I really do not get why so many people (mineo leading the charge) are defending him.It seems like Knox's attorney is arguing that due process has not been followed.

Judge closed by saying he hopes to have a decision today (good thing, as the Regional tourneys start tomorrow afternoon!).
