It started with RUCrackers posting about our squad transferring to Rutgers. But I’ve been hanging around since just reading the comments. And then I watched the Rutgers - Ohio State dual and rooted hard for Rutgers basically because I’ve been on your board recently. Even posted in the dual thread during it. I mean no disrespect being here. Except for maybe to one poster.
I’m not gatekeeping or anything. I don’t really care who posts, I actually enjoy when other fans can come in here and talk wrestling. That’s what grows the sport.

Just don’t understand the need for some to come here with no other purpose but to start problems and pretend that Rutgers doesn’t matter.
 
Crackers
I had dinner last night at the Rutgers Club with your teammate Tim Grifa, Bob Wymbs and Scott Becker(who took your place when you graduated. At the other table was Tim Hennessy, Tom O’Rourke and Tim Anderson, all 1980’s guys. They told me stories about you. Grifa was a frosh when you were a senior. He wrestled 142 when you wrestled 150. You dropped down to 142 for the EIWA and bumped him from the lineup. The 158 guy dropped to 150 so Grifa sat the bench. Great night reminiscing.

So what the hell happened to him because he doesn't act or talk like someone who deserves respect ...disrespecting kids who wrestled here with class ...challenging parents to fights. Numerous conflicts in this forum where he acts like a total ass...I believe he is who you say he is but he has totally disrespected RU coaches and numerous alumni for years ...he was banned 3 times for a reason ...now says we are getting 4 PSU studs and 2 Iowa Suriano types and there is no way I believe you think that any of his fantasy is true. You see the way he responds to critics ...that's not the way champions talk ..

Geez. Your obsession with Crackers is bizarre.
 
I have never seen this many PSU fans on our board, ever. It appears they are genuinely concerned about what Crackers is predicting.
Because it is true and alot of the fans have overheard wrestler talk about them leaving.Its gonna happen.Someone spilled the beans amongst the Penn State faithful who they are.Its just a matter of time. Put all your money on it.
 
Agree the crackers obsession is too much...
It's actually comical and pathetic. It's almost like a weird se*ual obsession or something.Its like he is so starved for attention he never got as a child and then tries so vehemently to discredit me even though Wng and has said he has spoken to me.Ive known Bill since late 70s to the mid 80s. I don't even entertain this low rent moron anymore, because he says the same shit, over and over and over and over again. The reality is, is that he is pissed off because I told the truth about the VanBrills and Aragona being choke artists. Am I wrong? Aragona was too busy playing stinky finger with his girlfriend and then dicked us around for a year, using scholarship money, that could have been used for wrestlers that really wanted to wrestle.Then he transfered to Campbell saying he was going to " reinvent himself " and flopped their too. Need I say more?

Grifa!!!! I hated that situation with the weight drop.1980 I was at 150 and you know what a disaster 82 was for me. Bill, Timmy Hennessey was after my time but a helluva great kid and wrestler.A Jefferson product if I remember correctly. He Fred Goldbach and McHugh were great recruits from Sach. I was almost certain one of them would AA. McHugh had a very tough weight class that year. I think he ran into Jim Martin from Penn State at the Stroudsburg tournament and got pretty roughed up. I remember when Rutgers Newark had a team.They had some tough dudes for a division 3 squad. I went to the Trenton State tournament in I think 1988 or 89? I forget( I was friends with Pete Gonzalez from Montclair State and wanted to see him Wrestle). I saw this big Italian looking kid at heavyweight for Rutgers Newark go out and dismantle the Rider heavyweight who was ranked in the top 10.He then majored the Seton Hall heavyweight who was the returning Catholic College National Champ and ranked 5th.He then met Wayne Catan in the Semis and took him into 2 overtime before loosing on locked hands call. I struck up a conversation with some of the Rutgers Newark guys.Some guys named Kurt and Donnie and they told me that heavyweight kid only took 2nd in his district and never made it to the states.I couldn't believe what I was hearing. They said a couple weeks before ( because I wasnt there) that he made if to Stroudsburg tournamnent semis, pinning the 14th ranked kid from George Mason, tech'd the Army heavyweight, making it to the semis, where he met 3 AA Andy Voight who bumped up to heavyweight from 190.Apparently Voight got called for stalling twice. They went into overtime and again this kid locked hands and lost by one point. This kid was brutal.Not a technician by any stretch, but extremely physical and great motor. He took it too Catan and gassed him out. His first named began with a C. Charlie, Carl or Chris, I forget. Driving me crazy that I don't remember his name. I was gonna go back to Sach and tell him to grab this kid, and have him inter campus transfer, because Getz was long gone and the heavyweight at the time was not cutting it. Their team was small, but they had some scrappers.

This guy's name is Matt.He is a neighbor of the Van Brills.He had an average high school wrestling career.Other than that, he is low rent nobody.

You should just copy and paste.Its the same old, same old, same old tiresome rhetoric, every single friggin post!
1) Mike the overweight Hawaiian, Aragonas white trash father are gonna stomp me.
2) I'm a disgrace to the program
3) I berate kids
4) I have this alleged drinking problem
5) I never AA'd and I'm an imposter.

Have I covered all the grounds? Come up with some new material.I actually love going back and forth throwing insults at each other, but you are making it really boring and actually annoying that you say the same thing over and over and over and over again.

No, you left out the part. Of you coming back as a supposed student because you were banned, but other than that, everything else Is spot on I'm glad you're proud of all that....I never said you weren't what you said you were ...WNG confirmed it...that's the saddest part lol...a former AA proud to trash kids who work their asses off and challenge their parents for defending their kids....yea I'm glad your proud of it .. The headline of this thread says it as you attack a kid for choosing the number one program in the world and then attack his dad for letting him do it. That says all we need to know.

Let's get a couple things straight. I commented how poorly aragona and the van brills were doing at the Rider match. I wasn't the only one. Then their fathers got on here making threats. So I started joking around with them telling them that I was right up the street when I was actually in colorado. Then tenth year senior janzer got on here , trying to play tough guy. People only get mad when they know other people are right. As far as hard work. Yes,I will say the van brill's worked their ass off in the room. I was actually one of their biggest fans and probably got more upset with them performing poorly. Maybe I should have rephrased it differently. But to sit there and malign my career that's a different story. Not one of those people came any near close to what I achieved. From a tough guy perspective, i'm certainly not afraid of any of them as I could easily take them down, even at my age. You're not too tough when you have someone on top of you. Regarding aragona,he knowingly dicked our program around. From what I recall, they passed up on a solid recruit to keep him on scholarship. Then he leaves the program and goes and shacks up with his girlfriend at third rate campbell. But that was the constant with our program.And it was getting aggravating.Winston,Mason, Camp, and that black kid from Bound Brook ( forgot his name). Year after year we had goodie putting good faith into these kids and them.Just floundering. But not just floundering sacrificing the integrity of the program at the same time. When I wrestled we had nothing.

You are like a jilted gf...

We get it. You hate him and have no respect for him. I respect your pov. I genuinely do.

But do you have to pollute every single thread with this. Please give it a rest. Please.

I agree. He won't stop though. It's like some kind of wacko stalker. Could you imagine if a girl broke up with him. He'd probably be outside her house with a trench coat ,completely nude with a steak knife and a stiffy, yelling "If I can't have you, nobody will".
 
Can everyone just declare a cease fire on the personal attacks and stick to wrestling? I’m not calling any individual out but making a general statement. This was a great board for discussion about the progress of the program, the SKWC’s efforts, duals, tournaments, and other wrestling focused topics. The occasional invader from other schools would get a taste of Jersey Justice but the infighting that now permeates this board serves no real purpose. Many of the historically more active posters have bailed on this board as the discussion has gotten away from the main reason the board exists. Nobody needs to hold hands and sing Kumbaya but again can everyone just cut the crap and stick to wrestling?

So what, he didn’t pick us. Respect his decision but not going to root for him. Mesenbrink kicked Caliendo’s ass too if anyone cares.
Exactly! You never see these penn state douchebags root for us. So you're telling me we're going to root for some kid who basically turned his back us? If anything I'm glad I watched Barr get his ass kicked by Buchanan. I loved what I saw from Ferrari last night. The whole third period he was attacking Starocci.
