its awful for this sport and all others
if you can even call it that anymore it is Soley business , for many where the 1st 3, 4 years are a audition to hopefully reap a huge payday for final year of service at a school with deep pockets
He’s a massive doosh. The wrestling board is 10x better once you put him on ignore.
Since it’s the Christmas season, I’ll refrain from going there, and I’ll just leave this instead.

From what I heard Iowa and Iowa state play two different games. Iowa plays a game where Bob Nicholls buys them a team because he can and Bob isn’t a coach so he can meet with any of these athletes who are not in the portal. Iowa state will not be like that. Everyone would love to have a rich guy who has Bob Nicholls money. Also what Iowa does is very slimy and I’m glad we aren’t like Iowa.
FD wrestler coming back from surgery.
Fort Dodge two-time state champion and top-ranked 215-pounder (IAwrestle) Dreshaun Ross is scheduled to return on Jan. 16 at Ames.
“Dreshaun told me he was going to make two trips to Ames that day,” Thompson said. “One during the day to get cleared and back that night for the dual.
“He is chomping at the bit to get back on the mat.”

Ross would look great in cardinal and gold
Crablegs is the ONLY person I ignore on any message board. He's that bad.
When I was coaching at the CB Classic he wore an Okie State sweatshirt the first day, and ISU the 2nd day. I was sure to remind him he made the right choice that day
There was some speculation and rumors that Richie Figs was shopping around. Iowa already bought two of his teammates. That was Arizona States response.
It's interesting because Figs tweeted "sellouts" after Teemer/Parco left. He recently posted a pic of himself posing in an ASU singlet, someone commented "Sellout" and his response was "I love ASU who said I'm leaving". But I do think it was out there that he was testing the waters.
Not sure if he was shopping around as much as Iowa was being Iowa and doing their normal things reaching out to athletes not in the portal
I will believe it to an extent knowing if there are any Iowa rumors out there they were probably offered a huge amount of money.
Tough year for Mizzou thus far and doesn’t look to get much better.
The NCAA is considering allowing five years of eligibility for players in all sports moving forward, an NCAA official told College Hoops Today on Friday.
There is no timetable on when a decision will be made, but the topic will continue to be discussed in the early part of 2025.
All players currently have four years of eligibility.
This would be a landscape changing move for college sports, which has seen many radical changes in the past few years such as NIL and the Transfer Portal.
The 2024-25 season is currently the last year for “COVID seniors”, who gained an additional season of eligibility following the COVID-19 pandemic.
