Congrats, you guys got another good one.
Just trying to be proactive (there's always the undo button):
No need for the undo button!!!! Karoly and Duggan updated...
You can't quit more than once. You already quit 2 weeks ago post RBY/Wittlake. Is this a double-reverse quit?
Welcome Brady! Very excited to see him in B&W. Hoping to continue the line of middle weight success.
Also winners: IC Bars

C'mon, somebody has to say "I guess this means we're out of it for Fix."

Willie should really ask Cael for a raise.
Alright, I sounded like a whiny biotch. I'll delete it and just say congrats. And sigh into my beer.
Geez...you must have hated Gable's Iowa program.
Fair points, Vak. I don't think the arms race is quite limited to those 4 teams...ASU and NCST have been pulling in some great talent too. With Penn state's recent recruiting dominance, I wonder how it pans out down the road, when there simply aren't spots for everyone. It's possible we see our first example of that this year, with McCutcheon.
I didn't really watch back then. But that's hardly the same thing. Wrestling is different now. Recruiting is much more science than art compared to the old days. We know who the best kids are almost always. The biggest part of the job now is recruiting those kids, and Cael may be the best we've ever seen at that. Hell, no maybe about it.

Based on the article, it seem like it was Penn State or Oklahoma State. Iowa wasn't even second. Geez.

Oh, I've got a thread for you to read...
If we're truly interested in what's good for the sport then let's get the Berges of the world to Edinboro or Campbell or Bakersfield or Cleveland State.
FREAKIN AWESOME...Come on down Daton Fix...PSU JUST KEEPS ROLLING...TITLES FOR YEARS BABY !!!! CAEL IS ON A COMPLETE OTHER LEVEL....THAT'S IS VERY TRUE....
I would honestly love this. Even Purdue, where he was rumored to go. It's not that a lot of guys need to vacate from Penn State or Iowa, just...I mean, SOME, right? Obviously most top level guys are going to a top level school, but given how much we know about how good these guys are now, given how much more ready many are to wrestle as true frosh, it's hard to see it as anything but bad for the whole of the sport for one school, or a small cadre of schools, to get all the top level talent. I'm not insinuating Cael and Penn State didn't do anything wrong here, their responsibility is to their program. Or that Berge did anything wrong. It's more of a macro level I'm talking about, this case is just the impetus for the discussion.
How many state titles does he have in Minn ? What weight did he wrestle last year...Is he a Sr ? Where is he ranked in his class ? Overall ?
The amount of times he mentioned the PSU room is fun is going to send some posters from other schools over the edge.
you might want to get over this quickly, the street says your beer will have more tears soon.
When he wrestled 160 at WNO last month he was pretty clearly smaller than everyone he went through.
Nothing shocks me anymore. A top level recruit gets a call from Cael and that often becomes his first preference. The partners and atmosphere are unmatched, and it is a very good education to boot. I think Berge said a mouthful when he directly mentioned the bonus point wrestling. Top kids want to shine in a wide open style. Cael teaches and preaches that style better than anyone else. tosu,osu,iowa, and several others will continue to get top end guys, but it does seem like they are starting to fight for 2/nd place.
