Brands is an idiot!!

Mineo tweeting that Gilman may be on the move to avoid a Ramos/Dennis situation. What would we all think about him landing at NLWC? Have to admit he’s can’t miss wrestling, and a little like Snyder, I think the staff can give him more offense diversity. Him and zain are also very close ive heard.
Mineo just posted again and said “Thomas Gilman to NLWC. Write it down.”
This is who Mineo is:


Don't believe Pyles? Believe App State coach Bentley, who called Mineo "a special kind of scumbag."

Follow him to the sport's detriment.
 
Just cut woman's wresting at Hawkeye land

So Perry said I'm outta here as well
Tom and Terry specifically refuted any cuts to the women’s program. Some of the women may follow Perry to ASU, but it’s not funding related.
 
I wish I couldn’t! He keeps popping up everywhere, though. Now even Flo is talking about him.
So do pimples, hemorrhoids and people that can't spell Cael. Pains, Pains in the A$$ and Painfully stupid. I avoid them all. YOU can do it too!
 
Tom Brands interview on the state of HWC

giphy.gif
 
The woman of the HWC think otherwise.Terry made a plea to them if they're listening that they really want them.The publicity that started from it wasn't gonna be good so Tom went on Track and Terry on Flo to clear the air.The issue is the girls all think the money was cut.Why did the girls think that? The girls thought that because that's what they were told. Now that Gilman and Perry left money has freed up for the girls and now they want them to stay .


This is pretty much what I have heard with a slight twist. Iowa has a fairly influential donor who was a former wrestler ( lets call him AF). AF is a very good friend of Perry and made a donation to cover Perry's salary and has donated other money along the way. The money was still going to be short to cover the women and expand the men who are coming into HWC. AF and the Brands thought Perry would be ok with cutting the women some and he wasn't. I don't think anyone did anything bad, but they were trying to do the best they could with the available resources. The pledges toward the new stand alone facility have made it harder to tap those same people for more HCW money. Brands did not want to cut back anything he just couldn't raise enough money to keep it all and grow it at once.

You mean women....pretty sure these are no more girls than Spencer Lee or Kemerer are "boys".

Str8DBLz has broken some good information. Snyder to NLWC is the big one. He also said he heard Berge was out for the year and that was pretty true, he did wrestle one more match before getting shut down again.

lol.

Berge out for the year was not even close to true when he posted it. Berge was still working toward a return to the mat for six weeks after dblz said he was done.

It didn’t work out but his season was obviously not over when dblz said it was.

dblz predicted that Berge was done at a time when Cael was telling everyone who asked that he wasn’t sure if Berge would make it back this season. That really doesn’t make dblz Bob Woodward, does it?

I'm aware who AF is.And that's what I got as well.And now they want the woman to stay.

This.
I’m also near certain that when dblz was *first* saying “Berge is out for the year,” he most certainly was not. I usually match up what dblz is posting vs what I hear. Imo, he takes info that is close enough to being true and posts it as a “scoop”.

That there was any discussion about funding at all that lead to anyone leaving in any way was directly refuted by HWC president Randy Novak.

Being one of those not in the know, I am glad when @Str8DBLz posts what he does. It is worth every penny.
 
Shluld he have wrestled that Ohio state match? I'm gonna go with a NO on that 1

Now you're just plain lying. Coach JM
Bentley called the coach who spread the rumor to recruits about the program being in danger a "special kind of scumbag" because that's where it starteD... Clearly you didn't listen to the interview, coaches spread that his program may be in danger to gain leverage on recruits. I've spoken to both App state coaches about it, they know where it started. Clearly, you didn't pay attention to the interview.
