In Iowa desperation news…

One thing about ADS' recent behavior, he has had his bad moments. But are we positive he threatened to kill the NCAA official. A similar thing was said about his incident with Schriever's dad and that was false (many credible witnesses who saw it said it wasn't a good look but that's not what he did)

The reason I say this is not to defend him per se but because that's a very serious thing to post if it's not true. There were rumors he was close to being DQed also for that and his points being revoked. I'm not sure Brands would just be allowed to sanction ADS by not letting him partake in awards if it was that serious. Not even a team point was taken?
Let's be honest, if AD as an assistant coach just follows the lead of his mentors and head coaches, TnT during matches, what could possibly go wrong?🙄

Also to clarify because i'm seeing a lot of people misunderstand, this is a position for Marinelli's new youth club in Iowa City, not the HWC or college team. I've heard good things about the way ADS works with young wrestlers.

As long as it wasn't Gobblin that told you, then maybe this is a perfect setup for him then. Would be awesome if helping out kids gave him something to take pride in.

It was what precipitated the throwdown with Anthony. He paraded around the locker room in his sister's panties after spending the night with her.

i’m assuming cleared as in it’s almost impossible to prove sexual assault in criminal court without physical evidence or witnesses, which is why so many predators end up going free.

him not going to jail does little to convince me given the other public stuff out there about him.
There is no way these kids for into any type of Iowa culture not going to happen. I can see it now brands tells him to do something and an saying **** you ok I'll do it my way. This is going to be a nightmare I couldn't wish on even Iowa which makes it really sad
 
I'm sure they will all be on as short of a leash as there is. They themselves have to know no missteps at all will be tolerated, but the question is whether they have the impulse control to follow through.
Brands don't follow through with the leash thing look at desanto threatening peoples lives and he doesn't get in the picture. That's a joke. If Tom is selling out he's selling out period

Ummm… maybe… thank you?

Lol! I go on a business trip, have limited time to check the latest on the board and I stumble upon folks wondering if I’m a woman in a thread about Iowa signing one of the Ferraris. Didn’t even use @ so I’d get an alert. Lol!
Your even keeled and that's good. You contribute to making the overall board seem sane at times. We need that. And you hold others accountable on here and hr and that I respect. I need accountability
 
Considering middle Ferrari got all freaking nuts because the little guy at Okie State did his sister and girlfriend. The family moving to Iowa City seems to be setting kid up to fail. Someone is going to be doing the sister and if she likes taking her brother's girlfriend along for some of her rides Mr. Unstable is most likely to appear again.
Anyone taking bets on who it is?
 
Desanto is a special case. Downey is the better comparison and Tom sent him packing before he ever wore black and gold. We'll see how it goes.
What I was going with was in regards to desanto being on the team Downey not so much and don't think he ever wrestled for Iowa. Time will tell. I sure hope the brands don't put up with their shit they have earned better than that and I'm not a brands fan

Pyles called out gobblin today on frl…..said something along the lines of thinking he’s an insider but whiffs on most things 😂😂

Brands + Brands + Desanto + Ferrari + Ferrari + Ferrari =

2BDF to the 3rd.

It's been a while, but thinking back to my chemistry days. Isn't that the chemical formula for either Dynamite or Cyanide, I am not quite sure.

Desanto is coaching some youth club run by Marinelli. He won't be anywhere near the Ferraris.
 
I know everybody is enjoying piling on the Ferrari's joining Iowa and how much they think it is going to fail but it would seem that if it happens and there are no issues it could make things tighter.

125 Ayala/Howard- Toss-up, maybe favor Ayala on past results but I am a fan of Robbie
133 TBD/TBD I would doubt Davis goes as a freshman
141 Woods/Bartlett Woods has to be favored
149 Chittum/Van Ness- I like SVN here based on experience in the big tournament however Chittum is showing very good results
157 Ferrari/ Haines Haines, no more needs to be said
165 Kennedy/ Facundo- Past results, edge Kennedy
174 Nobody beating Carter if he wrestles. Personally I think his comments get him more NIL money and he returns limited
184 Assad/ Brooks or Barr?- Brooks easy but if / Barr can't be more of a toss-up or edge Assad as freshman making an impact is rare.
197 Ferrari/ Brooks or unknown- I would really enjoy seeing Brooks here. I would give him the edge because he is such a tactician and stud when it counts
HWT Cass/Kerk- Obvious edge Kerk

Depending on how things play out Iowa is favored in 4 with complete unknown at 133. If AB or Carter take OLY RS this changes completely and makes Iowa the favorite barring any issues with the Ferraris. It is too far out but it does make things interesting.

I made some notes above. Yes, the addition of AJ Ferrari makes a difference. I don't even see Anthony seeing the mat at Iowa.

No doubt things get tight in a dual - it was a little tight this year. Tournament is another story.

Let’s see Chittum compete in college folkstyle before we get too crazy with predictions. Carter Young is a cautionary tale. Plus it won’t be a 20 year old beating up on 16 year olds anymore

Talk on GIA is that Chittum might be a 157 and they have a hole at 149 with the best options being either Rathjen or Siebrecht making the cut. If Chittum can't hold 149, then Ferrari isn't seeing the lineup. He's not better than Chittum or Kennedy (or Arnold, their presumptive 174).
