Good morning everyone,
Happy Thursday! Thanks to all of you who have made the move over this week. We're thrilled you are here, and I am beyond excited to follow this year's season with you.
For those of you who do not know me or didn't get the chance to read my intro on the old board back in July, I covered Penn State wrestling while in college from 2011-2015, but have focused more on football and recruiting since. I'll still do that but will also return to covering the wrestling now, starting with team media day next week. We have Journeymen Duals right around the corner, of course, and before long, the home opener against Army will be here.
I learned a great deal about this team, program, and sport from Tim Owen, who I always looked up to as a student reporter. I cannot replace Tim nor match his incredible knowledge, but I hope to be in the ballpark for you all. I'd be remiss not to mention Tom's tremendous work, input, and knowledge as well (I think I "knew" him from following his wrestling posts before any of the other BWI guys), in addition to so many of the insiders and experts who also post here. You all are the best. Guys like Jim Carlson, Andy Elder, Travis Johnson, and others helped me figure out this crazy sport we all love along the way, too, so wanted to give them a shoutout in this space.
Looking ahead, what kind of things would you all like to read? What information is a must? Are there any stories you've seen in the past elsewhere that you're not interested in? How would you like to see matches and tournaments covered? I have plenty of ideas, but I also want to tailor things to what YOU all want.
Finally, I'll make a quick promo and remind everyone of our current subscription deal, which is $1 for an entire year. It'll be around a bit, and this is obviously a free board, but if you want to see what the premium side of things is all about, you won't find a better deal on the Internet for a 365-day test run. Click here to learn more.
With that, let's talk wrestling, any comments or questions you have about the board, or whatever else is on your mind! I'll be in and out throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening, but feel free to tag me with an @ if you have any urgent question or need.
Thanks for reading, and I look forward to the conversation beginning.
