Recruiting

I don't remember @johnstownsteel coming here to talk down RU Wrestlers...
He Just asked a question, everyone has such thin skin around here.
O Bobby, you don't know johnstownsteel. I peruse the psu board from time to time just to see the chatter and he's not someone you wish to side with. His actions during the Suriano brew haha and what he says over there about us, would not sit well. Let's put it this way, Matter and him usually agree.
 
Ahhhhh, i dont remember some of the chatter during Suriano xfer.
I am blinded by his screen name....
As i said before...Grandpa work at Johnstown Steel
Soft spot in my heart fir Johnstown

Heard a rumor Rutgers made an offer to Ferrari , you guys think this is true?
I would guess YES, but i have zero insider info.
AJ is polarizing.
People will complain if we bring him in and people will complain if we don't.
U have to at least evaluate....
Adding Elam to help train AJ...... Has to help a little.

I wouldnt be surprised. Rutgers needs a high talent level additions to the roster. This obviously helps but I wonder if it would bring in more talent with him or keep some away from Rutgers.

I believe it, sadly. As for bringing in more talent, Anthony is also in the portal - double trouble. I do wonder if it will put off some others; Chittum certainly wouldn't come. It would also likely add the father, especially if both boys come. Hide your daughters.

Be specific on what my actions were during the Suriano thing. To be honest, I don't even remember talking about it much.

Edit... Found the thread. https://rutgers.forums.rivals.com/threads/nick-suriano-status.126619/#post-2826281

Exactly where in this thread do you have a problem with me? And it looks like the only time of me mentioning Suriano himself is me admitting I'm fine with him leaving to go to Rutgers if he doesn't want to be at PSU. Also, show me some posts where I talk about Rutgers on my board. I have over 10,000 posts there and I'll bet I have under 20 that I talk directly about your program. Nothing against you but I spend my time trolling Iowa fans. I rarely think of yours at all.

Dang gotta wonder how team morale is rn.. first, a team leader abruptly quits, followed by a bad b10+nationals, and now another team leader portals…
Hey kid. You're a regular visitor over on the PSU board.... how much time do I spend discussing Rutgers over there? Better question, am I known to run down any of your athletes or coaches?

Poz departure wasn’t abrupt. If you’ve followed what those in the know have said about him the last few years, you could see this building. It reached a point where he didn’t want to wrestle anymore. I don’t think Rutgers influenced that decision as much as his own mental well being did.

Peterson is hardly a leader in the room. He’s a good wrestler, but I’ve heard the term “diva” thrown around about him. That includes both high school stories and Rutgers stories. I wouldn’t go as far to say his teammates don’t like him, but many think he’s a baby.

Never heard that about Dean. I have never seen him pout or not give max effort in the room. The staff has never said a bad word about Dean he hasn't been a issue at all.

Tbh a lot of psu posters have clowned on RU but I don’t pay attention to who. The main culprit is Matters tho even tho he claims to not be a RU hater lol.

It felt like Poz was burning out but never expected he would suddenly retire right before b10 like that. He was looking alright until right before the Barr match.

Heard this directly from someone who has wrestled with Rutgers/SKWC but is not a current team member. Have also heard this among shore conference wrestlers around the time Dean was at Vianney

Yeah... he's definitely known for that. I play off of it with him from time to time because I find it interesting that he trolls them so much while most of us are indifferent. That may change if Rutgers becomes more of a threat. I always did agree with you that PSU fans should want to see the kids we don't get go to programs like Rutgers instead of teams like Iowa and OSU.

In a sick way, I actually do find his trolls quite amusing and funny.. and if I was a PSU fan on a PSU board I can’t blame anyone that trolls along with him, I’d prolly do the same if I was a PSU fan.

But yeah it’s a 3 horse race for the foreseeable future, maybe only 1, since DT mighta awakened the beast mode in Cael.

Not sure how RU will ever be a threat to u guys unless elite recruits/transfers start suddenly want to come here and/or magical donor comes along.
