Offseason Catch Up thread

[dunkej01]

Its not a stretch to think that there will be folks venturing back to the board in the coming weeks with the start of the new season upon us.

Instead of endless threads about this or that, which most regulars know, how about trying something different.

So I was thinking we should have a catch all thread that can be read and bring someone up to speed in a couple minutes?????????????????

ok, I'll start. No return of Spyker, just yet.

WE ARE RETURNING NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!

The off season is un-ending.

1. David Taylor is good at wrestling.
2. Brady Berge and Aaron Brooks aren’t bad either.
3. Be careful who you comp your Uber ride to.

I tore my meniscus, moved, watched my first kid come into the world, Dave, Kyle and Jaden all won World Championships all in the same week!

There has been no change to the requirement that a team must have 8 wrestlers to compete for a national championship. This requirement is known as the "21 Guns" stipulation.

Sorry to hear about the meniscus. I just had rotator cuff surgery last month and the rehab isn't much fun. Good luck, and congrats on your first kid!

First time poster here. This seemed like a good place to start. I’ve been following this forum for a while and thought it was time to join the fun. Live in PA, about an hour and a half from State College. Get to 1-2 matches a year. I was fortunate enough to attend the Ohio St/Penn St match last year. Great birthday present from my wife. Looking forward to the start of the season.

Pre-seasons suggestions for Over/Under posts/pics for each match?
I'll need to add another person to Bo/Jason. Who should it be?
I'll include a request for fastest pin.

Other suggestions?

Quickest takedown, most takedowns? (Nolf excluded?)

Suggestions?

Nick Lee (I would say Cezno, however, he seems to be predictable)

... and Turk selfishly didn't let all of us on the board choose the baby's name for him.

I'll try to summarize the main discussion points this summer.

There are three key weight changes this year:
- Rasheed to 184
- Nickal to 197
- Cassar to HWT (where he'll presumably wrestle off with Nevills)

I don't think anyone is certain about 125 and 133 but the majority opinion appears to be that it'll be Teasdale and RBY, respectively. Teske could challenge at 125.

Majority opinion on 149 is that Berge will probably start, though Verkleeren is a fantastic second option and could challenge.

There was also some rumor-mongering about Hall and Cenzo flipping weight classes but it doesn't appear that anyone is taking them seriously. Similarly, Nolf floated a rumor, probably joking, that Hall would redshirt this season.

It's official, I have ventured back. Random thoughts: I love endless threads of jibberish. Where in the Sam Hill is Vodka? Teske is challenging at 65? Congrats to Turk on the kid! Nolf pins everyone. Noodle arms wins again. I have endless random thoughts.

Number of (almost-)never-before-seen moves.

Who cares about naming the kid? We still don't have any pics of his wife. At least send one of the kid. It is a boy, right?

A boy indeed! Handsome as it gets. (I was an ugly baby so he caught me off guard). Momma is a beautiful woman I assure you. Also she just went from a C to a DD

Worst part of the busting out is they are off limits to hubby. It's a darn shame...

.....they are off limits to hubby......

Hell I was told by her doctor that everything was off limits . I felt like Pete Rose with my Ban. Wish I would have asked the end date, the kid is now 28.

Congratulations WT.

Why are you posting photos of Suriano Posing? Not cool man

Why are you posting photos of Suriano Posing? Not cool man

The photo settles it. There’s no way Suriano can go 125. Even 133 may be difficult by the look of him.

 

[diggerpup]

A little note that folks may have missed:


Ariz St @ Penn St will be shown live on ESPN2.

Some nice mainstream exposure.

 

[NJPTCAP]

Anyone know when media day is? Also, is the coaches show going to be on Wednesday night?

NOVEMBER 6, at 1:30pm.

Also, the first Coaches Radio Show is Wednesday, November 7. That announcement, and the plans for the shows throughout the season could be announced anytime.

Your fun is just beginning, mostly the discovery phase. I'll leave the rest to your imagination, dream on.

A very sincere congrats Turk!! You are living the best time of your life. Enjoy every little moment with your son as it really does go by like the damn song...don't blink.

Going to get rotator cuff sugery Monday. Is it as bad as they say?

And a host of challengers including Kemdog and MJordan are fleeing 157 in the hopes that they'll never have to wrestle Jason Nolf again

Kemdog is even moving up two weights.....just to be really sure.

Not unless we have gone Metric in the last week and I missed the memo.
