Best Wishes Tom Ryan

I posted this above, but I'll post it again to make sure everyone sees it. This is Ryan's email address at tOSU. I got it directly off their wrestling web site. We can all send him our best wishes personally.

Fortunately I was not. I did know officers who were there, though. Many of them were tasked with looking for and guarding bodies and body parts strewn throughout the large urban crash site.
Would it cheer him up to know he won the "whiniest coach in the B1Gs" award? j/k
I know you're joking, but go ahead and email him and let him know that the Penn State fans are wishing him well and a fast recovery. Bet you'll get a nice reply.
My attitude about coaches and wrestlers from opposing teams is that we are rivals, (but not enemies) only when we step inside the big circle on the mat. Outside of that circle, we are all brothers and sisters.
I agree completely. I can’t imagine what he and his family are going through right now. Overall, I think he’s the second best head coach in the country. He recruits well. His wrestlers are respectful and focused. Many wrestlers progress over time. You can’t ask for much more.
Edit to say that he adds transfers for need, and not to hide coaching deficiencies like Michigan.

I know you mean well, but if I was in an accident and came back to my work email flooded with emails to sort through, I would not be excited. I wonder if tweeting him support would be easier for him?
The pilot's last words in the few seconds between the collision and crashing to the ground were, "Ma, I love you."
PSA Flight 182 crash: CBS 8's coverage of the San Diego tragedy 45 years ago
September 25, 1978 is a date imprinted in the memories of many San Diegans. Those that lived here – and elsewhere – remember the shocking images of plane wreckage on fire and homes ablaze following...

I am subject to back spasms that will keep me floorbound for three days due to some "irrational exuberance" with squats in my youth. I have to keep my back strong and flexible, but occasionally..
On the other hand, one episode saved my life, driving me to the ER when I was so pancytopenic that my blood was basically pink lemonade, so I can't really complain about them.
I'm just starting to have better days after getting run over by pickup as a pedestrian on Nov 2, 2022. Initially the 5 broken ribs and collar bone in 4 pieces was what was painful.
Having Vertigo for over a year was mentally difficult. Started to feel a little better about 2- months ago. My collar bone still has not mended but I do have decent range of motion. Trauma Ortho Dr. thinks having a bone graph might not be any better than what I have.
How quick a person's life can change.
Hopefully Tom Ryan has a speedy recovery.

I wish Coach Ryan - and all of you - speedy recover and good health. At the end of the day, not much else matters.
As for back spasms… I’ve had 2 had required an ambulance. Laid on the floor for a day or two, took muscle relaxers, peed in a jug, the whole bit. Couldn’t get up. Finally called for help. Both times steroids provided relief.

Sure that’s a good option too. I’m sure glad to hear that he didn’t get hurt any worse than he did. He’s a very decent guy who actually adds a bit of positive infinity to the world.
Will Willie see these comments or are we still in the doghouse?
Let's go Ryan. Need you back in the winter at full strength so we can beat you at your best!
Looks like Tom swerved onto the shoulder of the highway and rammed the back of a parked semi. The force of the collision pushed the semi onto the highway. Both airbags deployed. Ryan was cited for "failure to control".
I have a friend who fell out of a tree wearing that exact harness..
Could have easily been a fatality, especially if he had been driving a low profile vehicle. Say what you will about large SUV's and full-sized trucks today, but they do afford you solid protection in a collision like this.
I don't wear that harness in a tree. Oh, um, wait.
Something must have distracted him. Hope he wasn’t texting.
I worked for a while for a company that built test equipment for auto manufacturers to do collision testing. It was a pretty interesting job. I might still be there but my wife just couldn’t handle the weather in the Northwest. When you get into the engineering and physics of an auto collision, the forces and acceleration rates are pretty scary.
He got cited for lack of control but not for texting while driving.
More likely he was speeding and then lost control while trying to avoid road debris or a massive car-eating pothole.
I came really close to causing a high speed accident one time when I swerved to avoid some big road debris. Fortunately the driver of the car to my right rear had fast reflexes and I just missed them. I probably got a middle finger salute afterwards.
He's going to have plenty of time in a recliner to answer work and personal emails. Ask me how I know. 😀
Because his twitter thumbs weren't broken?
Got a nice e-mail reply from Tom today. Excerpt: “ ……dodged a bullet no doubt. I’m healing and improving by the day.”
I got the same response:
Rich-
Thanks for thinking of me. I dodged a bullet no doubt. I’m healing and improving by the day.
Tom
I never heard a thing from him.
good luck in his recovery but that won't stop him from running his mouth!
Did you put the $20 bitcoin in your message? He only answers paying customers. The other guys just neglected to tell you that. How do you think he funds his recruiting trips to Aruba?
Does that word mean you were a fancy pants? 🧐
Congratulations on being alive!! 👍
Me neither, probably shouldn't have started with were you at least wearing your robe. Glad to hear he is on the mend.
Basically, I had pink lemonade for blood.
Pan: All
Cyto: Cell
Penia: Deficiency.
Low Red Cells, low White Cells (I was wearing a mask before all the cool kids), low hemoglobin, low platelets..
And thank you.
