WRESTLING ROOM/PSU fans reportimg KASAK to wrestle 157LBS which to me seems a bit high. :roll: Kasak last wrestled at 138lbs as junior in high school. That was 3 years ago. While not huge this year at 149 has been growing. Writing was on the wall to make lineup, 157 is the place to be. He will put ...

Just a side note on Alirez and Northern Colorado U. Northern Colorado offers 9 separate post graduate degrees in Sports and Exercise Science and an online Masters Degree in Sports Coaching. That is the definition of a good fit. Lehigh was never going to be in this discussion. Could have had a go at...

Apparently there was not a 7 figure or 6 figure deal available for Andrew Alirez, NCAA Champ and who is 17-3 at Men's Senior Freestyle thus far and US National Champion in 2023. I have no reason to doubt the people I know from other programs. Ira Lubert might have signed a check to ensure that Carte...

Well they just landed a Heavyweight. Would not surprise me at all that Taylor could get Barraclough and ask him to do the weight cut to get to 157. Oklahoma State just added a LOT OF POINTS through the portal.

>>>>>>NIL == Freedom. Freedom can be uncertain and even messy, but what it provides is Opportunity. We now have the opportunity to match any offer a targeted recruit receives. Crookham and Beard are the two elite recruits (ranked in the top 20) on the team———no surprise they are AAs. Rogers will be...

So now we’re not only thinking (unrealistically) about signing guys like Alirez simply because he hits the portal — we’re extending that to out of work assistant coaches? Yeah, that’s bizarre. Coleman Scott left a terrible recruiting class when he left Carolina. Only Koll Magic has turned lemons in...

Clowns who selected Simon (horrible reputation at UVA with Phi Kappa Psi incident) and Helble. Just so everyone knows, you can go into IPEDS database. Lehigh thus far with College of Health Population has graduated just 23 graduates. It is a $100 million plus boondoggle. Counter that to DeSales U, C...

NIL. Not quite a 4-letter word, but it should be. A vile, corrupt, illegitimate vehicle to bring professionalism to college athletics. Profane indeed. D1 college athletics are in total disarray. Conference realignment that makes no sense and de-emphasizes natural regional rivalries that fans want. ...

Looks like we will have an elite team out the gate. Lehigh Valley produced a couple of state champs in first year. I am sure there will be a local pipeline also.

Portal closed. Elite athletes with announcement dates. Shit or get off the pot time. Best available for Lehigh's needs.
