In Iowa desperation news…
- Thread starter CSauertiegPSU
- Start date
This says it all
"Kids come here because they see the way our guys compete and they see the way our kids love to wrestle, and they love to wrestle even more as seniors as they do as freshmen"
"As blessed as we are, kids don't come here because we have a hot and cold tub. If they do they're probably not the right kids"
We are so fortunate to have Cael as our coach. I know the article was from 2016 but I'd bet he feels the same way 7 years later.

Your theory would only apply to WWE. Guys in MMA and specifically the UFC don’t just walk off the street and get in the cage with a veteran like Holland because they put a staged altercation out on social media. There are definite steps to that no matter who you are.
Uncle Carmine is the gift that keeps giving. Please, please send more than 1 Ferrari to Iowa.
I can't wait to see him in the stands, let's hope he is more vocal than Uncle Tony, but with a manhood to match his IQ.
The whole family in one section matside so we can capture their reactions, as the inevitable takes place when we come to town.

If he’s like Uncle Carmine he’s only one scalpel swipe away
Reading GIA this morning, it sounds like the Ferrari family were in Iowa City yesterday being courted by Cassioppi and Morningstar. I do feel bad for some of the Iowa fans that have a moral compass and don't want this to happen to their team. They publicly displayed their displeasure and are subsequently chastised for speaking their opposition. It just goes to show how desperate the Brands (and some fans) are as this makes them appear that they will do anything just try to win. Some fans have even changed their tune and are now welcoming this family to their team. I wonder if they would still welcome them if the possibility of a team championship was totally out of the question.
It (team championship) is out of the question they just can't process the obvious.
This shows exactly how out of touch they are -- Spencer himself said Iowa is only recruiting the youngest Ferrari, not the entire family.

- The only way this ruins the program is if the Ferraris continue to get into trouble and TnT look the other way and allow them to continue the bad behavior without consequences. I don’t see that happening.
Montell Marion is saying hold my beer!!!

I just don't see any way that AJ is going to be able to wrestle anywhere unless his charges are completely withdrawn and the victim's story recanted. In this day and age, no school is going to look the other way at a felony sexual assault to admit a kid for athletics. I know it happened (frequently) in the past, but it is different now.
Anthony's case was far less serious and lent itself to the type of resolution that it got (basically anger management, restitution, and probation), and Angelo doesn't have any legal woes that we know of (only potential genetic deficiency, I guess, LOL). Iowa could get those two kids, and as long as they keep their noses clean, it would be a huge benefit to the program, but I just don't see it for AJ unless something remarkable happens with his criminal case first.
I agree. The AJ story can't be swept back under the rug like it used to be in some cases. And that's a good thing.

Perhaps one or more of the Ferrari boys heard about the team's Mike J. McGivern Award and is gunning to dethrone Marion as the wrestler to overcome the most legal troubles to regain a spot in the starting lineup?

From the article above:
"Marion's once-permanent suspension from the Hawkeye wrestling squad was lifted in January 2011. Despite an offered transfer release from the UI, he chose to stay and try to regain his spot on the team. Marion earned his spot back and received the team's Mike J. McGivern Award for the team's most courageous wrestler. In March, Marion made his second NCAA finals appearance and placed second in an overtime battle."
They embraced bringing in Pat Downey. I think they'll be just fine.
I have no idea how Iowa fans watch AJ's recent social media posts and his antics at UFC 287 and think it's going to work out. This dude hasn't even gotten his charges cleared yet and is going about like he's still king of the world. Combine that with the inevitable hero worship he's going to get if he makes it onto their roster and wrestles and they think that's going to cause him to behave?
Disagree, if he is found Not Guilty or the Charges are Dismissed, he will be free to join the team bottom line. However, if AJ were to commit the same crime again, the school is opening itself to a very large lawsuit and Brands will be in the hottest of waters.
No really. This is the one everyone should really want, and the rest of the circus already relocated to Iowa City.

Why is everyone in that family determined to reenact Eddie Murray's stand-up about Italians?
How funny would it be if Rutgers got Angelo and Iowa is stuck with dumb and dumber?
They’ve been stuck with them for many years.
Heck they’ve been coaching the Hawks for nearly 2 decades.
You and @WexfordWarrior got eligibility?
Is there any way we can bring him in? This kid demolished Sealy without breaking a sweat! Sealy couldn't even defend himself against this baby AJ. This kid will be 4 time NCAA champ and Olympic champ if he keeps his head on straight. He will humiliate Sealy if we don't bring him aboard! He could probably take Carter to the limit now in HS. Gotta get him or we will be sorry!
Wow, kid twist. A little over the top. I’d rather ride with our guys and coaching. If Sealy ever needs to beat him, Cael and team will have a plan. Have some faith.
1. Sealey will be 1 or 2 weight classes below Angelo.
2. Carter would kick his head in right now
3. We’re fine
4. I'm good with Barr and Ryder.
5. We'll be every bit as sorry as we were for missing out on Glory.
6. Cael had the family in for AJ's official. Anthony and Angelo aren't visiting. Draw your own conclusions.
