I hear that the PSU may go back to having wrestle offs open to the public??
anyone know anything?

It would be great to get a look at some the new frosh and returning RS in action.
I hope that this is just not a rumor..

Not exactly sure what this post means, but it's funny as hell.
It means, given all of Team Penn State’s secrecy, I could see you risking Cael’s wrath by surreptitiously filming the wrestle offs (if not allowed).

Don’t get caught like Rerun

Not sure where the OP heard this. I did see a reference to a wrestle-off, though can't remember the publication, and discounted it as unknowing. Not the "model" the coaches have adopted. A "kick-off event" is more likely, imo, though I know nothing about that at this point.

It was Foley in his Friday Mailbag. Maybe he knows something we don't, but I think the more likely explanation is that Foley is clueless, as usual.

Yeah, Foley did mention that. I don't recall if I called that out in my weekly Mailbag post, or left it for the board to find (my usual style).

What a surprise. ;)
 
If I remember correctly there were rumors that the wrestlers didn't like the public wrestle-offs when they were held a couple of years ago. I also don't like the idea of public wrestle-offs (full disclosure - I attended the last one). Perhaps wrap any possible wrestle-offs into a local tournament a la the NLO?!?
 
The starting spot isn't and shouldn't be won or lost on a single match.

A public "wrestle off" would seem to be a winner takes the starting spot proposition. But since there is much more that goes into earning the spot than a single public victory, I don't see the point in having a public wrestle off.

is this the point in the off season where we start talking about filling stadiums for wrestle offs?

Exactly what weights would be included.... "IF" this did happen?
Lee @ 141
Nolf @ 157
Cenzo @ 165
Hall @ 174
Shakur @ 184
Noodle arms @ 197
These seem set. That leaves 125, 133 149 & 285 (assuming Nevills is healthy).

If I can steal from dunkej01..... #trustincael
