Thx PSUscooper, but we already have reliable posters here who share this kind of info, so you can put your little birdie away.

You might want to consider these implements for some of your future scoops.

I've always liked Shaker architecture. Would love to own a "Salt Box" house some day.
 
Cassar has one more year. Love Shak, but wouldn't be devastated. Would kind of suck for Sponseller, who had a down year this year.
 
Didn't Cassar get an injury waiver, he has two years left.
I believe as or right now, Cassar has not received a 6th year of eligibility. He should have an excellent chance or receiving one if he applies for one.

Sorry. Horribly written on my part. Meant that he has one more year than Shak. Not sure how I neglected that part. For that reason, my preference is to keep Cassar (if can't keep both).

With Beard grayshirting, I think the coaches believe that Cassar will be around 2 more years. Beard grayshirts and then redshirts while Cassar's eligibility expires. If necessary, Beard wrestles after grayshirting if Cassar does not stick around or is denied a 6th year.

The only reason I can see Shakur leaving is if he were told he likely would be the back up next year.. which wouldn't be likely at this point.. Doesn't really make sense otherwise but we will see..
 
Given their vows of celibacy, the Shakers are not a viable source of recruits.
According to Smithsonian magazine, 61-year-old Brother Arnold Hadd, one of the last two Shakers alive, still has all his eligibility. He doesn’t know wrestling, but he knows all about wax on wax off and paint fence. :)

Yep, makes no sense given he just AA'd in his first full season. Cassar is much more likely to leave (Rutgers) than Sheed.

Not sure, but I could have sworn I heard Rasheed right after his All American win for 7th say "Next year, Shakur Rasheed, Penn State, National Champion".

Also, I believe the Shakers settled in Ohio if I am not mistaken.

yeah, among other things, they believed in celibacy; procreation was forbidden after joining the Society -- a tough way to sustain a community

The actual name for the group is The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, though they are commonly known as Shakers.

Interestingly, they were an offshoot of Quakers, though as with Shakers, Quakers is what members of that faith are commonly called, though the actual name of the group is The Religious Society of Friends.

As the Shakers were an offshoot of the Quakers, in the early years of the organization (on or after 1747), they were initially called the Shaking Quakers.

royboy's post does identify one of the issues they had in sustaining their organization. For those that joined the group at some point after their marriage had to agree to end their marriages upon joining. And the members took their celibacy so seriously that those of opposite sexes could not even shake hands (the horror).

there was an exception/caveat to royboy's post -- pregnant women were allowed to join the organization.

interestingly, there was an alternative which if adopted by the larger community would have helped with their sustainability. A number of people were attracted to the general concept of Shaker life, but did not agree with the celibacy platform. Groups of such individuals often lived together in noncommunal orders. Shakers took an interesting stance towards these people -- they basically accepted them, and allowed them to marry or remain married. However, they also made it clear that they were less-than-perfect Shakers, as they weren't celibate.

Well, Cael was not at all happy over the hair issue. Especially when SR nearly got DGed in one match.

they started in Bolton, England around 1747. In 1774, a group of Shakers sailed from England to the colonies. They first settled in Mount Lebanon, NY. They established additional communities in New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine. In the early 1800s, they established communities in Ohio and Kentucky. In 1824, they established their westernmost community in West Union, Indiana.

Nobody was! Cody was wildly livid--inside the arena! James freaking Green was in attendance as a fan and he was not at all happy.

But nothing I've seen has indicated any unhappiness at anybody other than that ref who chose to keep his warning words in his pocket and wait til Rasheed toed the line to make any kind of deal about the hair--by calling injury time until Rasheed capped it with the net.

Thankfully, Coach Pop squashed the issue by choosing neutral on Mach's choice upon restart.

He already stated he was cutting it.. Forget the words he used.. I think he said he would make sure it was cut to have a good flow but it would be cut.. LOL..

Kind of like how a Catholic person that was divorced, is a less-than-perfect Catholic as they cannot be remarried in the Catholic church without getting the previous marriage annulled. I just love organized religion...

So the Shakers were nothing more than monkey spankers and diddlers that could make furniture.
