Michael Beard to the transfer portal

Willie said he'd guess one of Michigan or Lehigh for Michael today. ASU and Rutgers are in the mix and every school in the country (minus a few) basically called, some offered quite a bit of NIL money as well.

Said Michael was/is very happy at PSU and absolutely 0 hard feelings to the staff for how this played off. His GF is here also and he loves his teammates, training situation. He just can't wait any longer as the starter. Honestly, he wanted to go in 2020 (he beat Shak and Conel in the wrestleoff per Willie) since he kind of redshirted with the gap year.
 
I'm just saying--if he picks Lock Haven, he can keep those training partners, at least in the off season....

nothing will make up for lost years of competition. But if there is no hard feelings and he gets on a team to achieve his goals with NIL to boot....well seems its the best anyone could hope for.

this NIL stuff may start upsetting some apple carts and I liken it to the real world.

I have people I work with that have been at their respective companies for years and years. They are making X and happy for the job. However, during the last 2 years they have seen new hires get great starting salaries and sign on bonuses that almost come to what these people are making after years and years on the job. The sign on bonuses seem to be a big rub when these existing employees didnt get holiday pay or hazard pay through COVID, etc, etc

So they are resentful of the younger or newer people.

I could see this with NIL and causing some kids to get a little p!ssy how these bags are distributed.
 
WRONG!!!

1. The Rachel Maddow Show

WTF kinda line-up is that!!! You should be ashamed of yourself!
 
Interesting decision, love to see how/why you selected the two you did. A bit biased to say the least.
HEY.......unless there has been an exchange of bodily fluids ( In which case you have my best non-judgmental wishes ).....you two need to STOP. There will be no Hawk on Hawk crime on this board while I am still ( Barely) breathing. :)

Completely political in nature. He knows it. Big argument and the only two who receive consequences are in the political minority.
 
Hey 3 years from now he should be looking at grad school. Is it out of the question that he could come back for one final year and a swan song national championship? Unlikely for sure, but I expect we would all welcome him back with open arms. I'll keep this one in my hip pocket, to age like a fine wine until it is ready to drink.

Can’t lie - I had thought of the same crazy scenario
 
MB said he went to PSU because it was the best place for him to be the best wrestler he could be maybe he can beat out Dean next yr if not he would still have 2 yrs to start so really no reason to transfer please stay MB!!

He has been in college for 4 years already and has only started 1, maybe he does not want to stay in school for 3 more years and wants to start now. Cannot fault the man for wanting to wrestle now, especially knowing he has to sit for another.
 
I agree. Let's hope the seeding falls in place to allow that to happen. And if #11 is locked up, I'll be happy for the winner, whomever that might be.
If the NC is on the line....cael jedi mind tricks him into stepping into the bear trap
 
BREAKING NEWS I just made up: Michael Beard will be wrestling for Lehigh this coming year and then will transfer back to PSU the following year. Book it Dano :)

LOL he could get his Masters and be NCAA champ!
 
No, someone was made to look like a fool one too many times. Not that it’s difficult when you’re awful at what you do.
