Wasnt implying nefariousness, just wondering why the need?
At ALL schools the need is to acquire more talent at the right price. Doesnt matter if you're a 100% guy or a books guy, if a coach has an opportunity to get quality that improves his talent base without a big sacrifice money wise - its happening. There are no promises - this is a business.

These things have a way of working themselves out.

This is true whether it's at PSU or at Binghamton.

Fair enough, ive offered my .02, carry on.
 


Head scratcher for me. If he can beat Beard, I guess that is a good thing.

I'm going to take a guess and say Vodka's blood pressure is skyrocketing, and he's fuming that he can't get through to the NCAA compliance office.

We'll be treated to a bunch of HR posts that either mention slush funds and or cheating. Or perhaps the HR crowd won't care because Warnerov will smash either Beard or Conel next year.

What is the timeline for these decisions?

When can we expect to hear anything regarding Shak, Cassar, or Conel?
 
These arent walk- ons we’re talking about here. Are you really telling me that you think Cael made no promises to the guys we are giving partial or full rides too?? Cmon

He promised them a chance to compete for a starting job. Do you really think he promises ANYONE that they will be the starter? Come on already. Plus, last season 32 total wrestlers got some athletic ship so all but a handful of kids got partial rides. I doubt anyone got a full ride.

There is reference in the rulebook to practice allowances after a request. It's 30 days, so I'm guessing we'll know by the 3rd week of April at the latest. The Committee on Student Reinstatement does not appear to have sport-specific responsibility, so it handles all requests, all sports.
 
Soooooo Im a little late to the party......but Im reading this thread and.....Just so i get this right, the dynasty may have just got stronger and we are debating if Cael and staff may not know what they are doing.

O.K.........

Man, first world problems really are hard to deal with.

I think it was 2, maybe 3 years ago information was released showing 30some kids got some sort of assistance. Maybe just a 100 bucks for books.
This is Cael's 10th season at PSU and, Suriano aside, transfers out haven't been a issue. It appears to me when the plan is laid out to kids and parents nobody is feeling slighted or misled.

Yep. Despite the obvious. One kid is being trained to improve his handfighting and pushing for a stall and the other two are being trained to improve their wrestling skills.

Vodka is going off, but actually not going the cheating route like normal. He’s denigrating the athletes and families that are greyshirting by refusing to believe any scenario could exist where somebody elects to forego scholarship money at the earliest moment of acceptance and instead chose to wrestle the best around the world and not just eagerly pursuing that coveted NCAA All-American status.
 
Wow. HR was fun today.

One poster accused Cael of starting a cult in Happy Valley.

And Vodka announced he’s going to “analyze” PSU’s grey shirts + tendency to “recruit over” certain weights w #1s & #2s.

Wait til Sunday Morning, good reading over there, just get the coffee ready. But by mid week they’ll convince themselves of a 2020 title. Hell, half of em have started the 2020 thing since November . I love 3 days before the Nationals start the lead story is Kyle Conel on the Hawk board, lol...
 
Conel wants to use his option to go to the best upper weight room on the friggin planet to be the best 197 he can be. He and we will find out.

Note I didn’t say in college. The planet. I hope he reaches every goal he has.

It’s finals week. I am not going to worry about a test next semester;)

Particularly funny was that grayshirts don't understand economic opportunity cost because they forgo a scholarship while deferring enrollment.

I agree I don't see offering anything g to connel if he already had a plan with beard

Save me the pain... How did they rationalize DeSanto and Lugo?

Hell even smalls is mocking their idiocy. Ole Vodka, what am I saying that isn't logical? A genius in his own mind. Who would have ever thought HR would be taken over by whiners. The best free entertainment on the Web.
