Where does the "Johnny-Come-Lately" label come from? Just curious. Maybe from a couple bandwagon-jumpers that are over-the-top exuberant?
There's many more like me (I guess we're been called "blue hairs"), though I'm one of the younger of that group, only following Penn State Wrestling since 1974.
Since it was adopted as an NCAA sport (1928), Penn State has had;
47 top-10 finishes
27 of those were top-5 finishes
17 of those were top-3 finishes
6 of those were National Championships
One could argue that Penn State is the 5th or 6th most successful program all-time...hardly chopped liver, and certainly not Johnny-Come-Lately's.
Okie State has 44 top-2 finishes and even more top-5 finishes
Iowa has 29 top-2 finishes and even more top-5 finishes
Iowa State has 24 top-2 finishes (8 NC's) and even more top-5 finishes
Oklahoma has 20 top-2 finishes (7 NS's) and even more top-5 finishes
HERE'S WHERE I WOULD PLACE PSU ALL-TIME --- 5th best
But in the past 6 years, PSU has the best results in D1.
Oh, and I enjoyed the discussion about CHA and Rec Hall. Apples and oranges to me. Crossed CHA off my bucket list after attending the B1G Championships this year. It was awesome...Iowa has something special there, but I'll take Rec Hall for home duals. Less capacity, but more intimate. Not sure which I'd give the better "home-mat-advantage" to...both can get really loud.
As an aside;
-- Had my picture taken next to the Gable statue outside CHA.
-- Enjoyed a famous ice cream cone, inside CHA.
-- Thoroughly enjoyed every discussion, early morning (breakfast), and late evening, with the mass of Iowa fans we shared our hotel with (hotel was full of out-of-town PSU and Iowa fans).
-- Yep, I personally met some Iowa fans that weren't very nice (at the venue), but they were very few, and frankly just as bad as a couple of the PSU fans. Overall, we were treated great!!

Ironically, #8 and #9 were both originally, and correctly, used to describe Eddie Klimara.
Ok Ill bite down....Its well noted about Eddie and working his way back from whatever it was he was dealing with. Charges that were later dropped and a conspiracy theory that he was set up I might add.
So Im not sure what this has to do with the post by FT at all. I also did a quick google search of eddie klimara and hookers to see if I missed something. If my quick search is accurate I could not find where eddie had anything to do with hookers. So what does "originally and correctly used to describe" .....really mean? Again you hooked me, I had to stop what I was doing to look this up. I mean who doesnt like a good drugs and hooker story.
So my question is what does your post mean? Eddie has nothing to do with the post by FT, and is not discussed in the 3 pages of posts to this thread. From the edges, Eddie is not even in the wrestling news right now. Not competing in FS, has graduated from Ok St so hes not coming back and flamed out last year.
You have twice called me out for ad hominem attacks on you, so I will turn this around a little bit. What did eddie do to p!ss in your cheerios????
You should know about the ignore function more than anybody Bud. Seems like you are taking all of 21guns posts personally. Your better than that aren't you?
I remember those NCAA's, NoVa--my first time to attend the NCAA's. Rich Lorenzo placed 3rd I believe that year.
It's a joke. He was arrested for cocaine possession. He had a bag of coke on him, and was arrested.
As far as anything else, it's irrelevant how you feel about anything, my posts or anyone elses.
I would not get into a Big Swinging D contest with Willie.
