At what point do we stop letting them blame all the former wrestlers, recruits and current wrestlers for the problems between them and everyone else. If what I heard is true about the things they said to Endene then they need to be shown the door, today.

There's some chatter about how TNT wanted Mo to wrestle even though he was hurt. Impacts to NIL. No one really knows if it's true or not, but why doesn't iowa give these coaches a spokesperson or training around delivering news. Their current way doesn't work.

C'mon man! 2 things:

A: The key word here is IF

B: See Duke Lacrosse, circa 2006

Since the beginning of time it's not wise to convict and execute people without PROOF. (with the possible exception of O.J. Simpson šŸ˜‚)

Too many things have happened over the last 10 years to continue to think it is always someone elses fault. The one common denominator is TnT. Look at Terry on the sidelines. Classless. Why have every stud wrestler that wrestled for them gone elsewhere?

There’s really no point in speculating on the Endene situation without any facts to back it up. I’m not a diehard TnT at all costs guy, but a lot of people are just using this to support whatever narrative they already believe
I've been an Iowa wrestling fan for a very long time. My best friend in High School was a Hawk Wrestler. I contribute to the wrestling program in a lot of ways and have been to every conference tournament and Nationals for a long time. Watching TnT on the sidelines has gotten old pretty quick over the last few years. Add to that everything else I hear and that OUR TEAM is truly not fun to watch anymore, it is past time for a change.

We’ll see but I imagine there’s probably fire with this smoke so I’m a little more comfortable speculating, given that the events described by ā€œwrestling.insider.updatesā€ align with how similar situations went down while I was there, except NIL $ was not involved then so there was no incentive to remove guys from the team.

Can you explain to me how Duke Lacrosse and the Endene situation are even remotely similar?

I would assume he’s referring to this:

View attachment 1146608

You think he was talking about this after it was discussed ad nauseum in about four other threads, including one he started?

You know what, on second thought, it’s possible.

I can buy about 2/3 of it. And that is certainly awful enough if true. Can totally see it. But it goes off the rails when it talks about money. Iowa is not out there pinching pennies. And the backpack thing? Good Lord…

I've advised Beth that Yianni should be part of the package. How exciting!!!

And I never even mentioned it’s like three days old. Lol.

The OP does live in an interesting world, in your defense. No idea what he was referring to, either.

You live in a basement, probably your moms, and this is the highlight of your day. You have no idea who I am. I am around this program more than probably 97% of the people on here. I'm just not a TnT nut licker. Our program deserves better than we are getting from the guys at the top and if you don't agree you are part of the problem.
