***College Wrestling Thread***

Bad for the sport...

The popularity of CFB rises no matter what. Now with the transfer portal amd NIL, teams just go buy a replacement. Not the sport we grew up watching. Sad deal. I am working up in North Dakota now and miss games all the time. Doesn't bother me a bit.

I didn't even bother to watch the replay of last year's OU Bama(Missed the live game due to work.). In years past, I would rewatch every game of the previous season in the off-season. Now I barely watch a highlight.

Same with recruiting. I used to follow all the developments during the offseason and watch every players hs film. Now it is an occasional clip.

So you've lost your fandom?

Be gone, Satan.

They have almost shut their wrestling program down. Decided that the collective NIL will go to FB, MBB, WBB, and softball.

That's terrible. Programs will keep slipping away. For a proud and storied program that could be the death knell. But I don't think it will be the only school to suffer the same fate.

Hard to believe that women's basketball is a better investment than wrestling. Priorities are priorities... I guess.

Where will Gabe Arnold land?

Mr. Arnold needs to get his head right and figure out if he wants to put in the work and time to be a d1 wrestler. If he can he could be a force and if that happens I hope he returns to Iowa. But partying and not showing up to summer workouts hinders development.
 
In other news, Oklahoma State just released their dual opponents. My phone's screen shot function is currently broke or I would post it.
