Iowa news - 2024-25

Been there - fun tour. I wonder what Bob’s underlying guilt (Winchester heir was all of the lives lost to the guns) is that would make him certifiably in sane??

Wouldn't he also have some benefit from all the lives saved by guns?

It was a she, but I’m just repeating the explanation given at the Mystery House.

 

[Cstroke]

The tunnel is envisioned as a shelter under a bridge for all the single moms he has evicted.

Address and any thoughts on what they’d like to have for dinner?

When not a single poster calls out stuff like the Mesenbrink post I referenced above, it is the consensus of Iowa fans. I don't recall you standing up and calling out the idiocies on your board, but you sure dismiss their behavior here.

To be fair, cesspool gonna cesspool.

 

[raslen007]

Or 5th. I think UNI out scores them

I wonder is Schwab would ever have interest in the Iowa job. He seems to a decent job with far less resources.

Sorry.

I can't define a woman, I'm not a biologist.

And far fewer crazies with a sense of entitlement.

 

[98lberEating2Lunches]

There is maybe one dude there that isn't some deranged lunatic and absolute scumbag.

Who? The suspense is killing me.

@mcpat can you gin up a poll real quick of candidates purported not to be deranged lunatics?

If memory serves, Lunatic Fringe was on the Vision Quest soundtrack.

That would be great walk out music: Wasn't MM called a "lunatic"?

We also met Kasak's little brother. Great personality on that rascal. He recently won a huge youth tournament in State College. His grip strength is incredible for a kid his age.

We also met a couple of Iowa posters with PSU Mike (who rocks!!) , they say Iowa is buying a line up that will compete with PSU next year. 197, 141, and 125 will be free agent signings and more.

Elam and Figueroa I assume but who are they thinking at 141?

 

[horraybeer]

Honestly, I read it and just kept scrolling. There's just no response to it because it idiotic and imbecilic. Even engaging someone who posted would have sullied my keyboard. It was just... f'ing weird.

And definitely NOT the consensus of the board. Come on man.

Well, you being an Iowa Wrestling Alum. You should have stuck up for the Integrity of sport and expected better out of the fans that cheered for you. Come on man!

 

[hlstone]

Elam and Figueroa I assume but who are they thinking at 141?

Those are the only 2 they would confirm. Those guys are also in a text chain with Bob Nichols.

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

You mean the 6th grader on that board who always capitalizes weird words and uses weird names for our wrestlers? Lol. That guy has the IQ of a ****ing turd. And to think he's actually a teacher at a school is ****ing scary

This guy?

Soon to be 24 year old Rocky Elam who would be in his 6year coming off an injury.

Good luck with that

I've seen claims that CJ Composto is on their radar for 141.

You see? It's so difficult.

 

[Conewago]

Actually, chicken in Iowa is known as pork.

Years ago I told my grandpa - who, as I've mentioned elsewhere, hated Iowa - that when farmers in Iowa butcher, they don't make scrapple. He said they were a bunch of savages. Uncivilized scum.

 

[Conewago]

I can’t blame Bassett because I’d probably take the money too, but I’m surprised someone would put that much effort in to the last 15 years of wrestling to trust the rest of my career to the Brand’s Brothers. I could’ve understood Oklahoma State. I know they say he got $5 million, but it’s not like Penn State or Oklahoma State would’ve given him zero. If he’s as good as people think he is, he would’ve made out really well financially. I don’t know how any objective wrestling person could think they would be developed properly at Iowa anymore.

I applaud the one year rentals for taking the cash. Guys like Parco or Teemer weren’t gonna win a national title, regardless of school. Take the check and hopefully save some of it.

I do wonder how long Slumlord Bob will keep spending this much money. You can’t be a moron and be this successful in business. At some point you would think he would want to see some return on his investment. I’m not saying he would stop giving, you would just think at some point he would use his influence to force them to hire a new coach. Very strange situation.

As a Penn State fan, I hope he keeps the Brands around for another 20 years

In fairness, I actually think there's a LOT of morons who are successful in some businesses for one reason or other

I had a great Uncle that had a farm in a little town called Victor. I'd have to ask my cousins if he made scrapple.

Logistically, I think he was just always confused why you *wouldn't* make scrapple or something like it. By and large, you're just taking things that ordinarily aren't good to make more sausage and stretching them into more food with a pan sausage type.

So to him, not making scrapple, or something else it, was just a disgrace. Like, why the hell even have pigs? Plus, if you do it right, it really is delicious.

He was a real old timer. I miss him.

I believe the reference was “psycho”.

I don't think he's as good as people says he is. I'm sorry I just don't buy into that kind of hype. That's not to say he doesn't have talent but when he starts rolling around with men things will even out. Maybe I'm wrong but I just don't see it

The twins have been beaten down and only have one choice but to rent a competitive team. How sad for them to come that realization.
