Willie today said 2 of the reporting schools were Arizona State and Oklahoma.
Apparently Iowa also tried to poach OU 197 Stephen Buchanan ... also not in the portal.

Before or after they kicked AJ to the curb.
. What a dumpster fire that program is.
But now they are the clear #1 for drama.Remember when Iowa was good at wrestling??
Don't your breath waiting for the NCAA to enforce standards and accountability.
My expectations are always rock bottom with regards to the NCAA. That said, when things seem obvious and outside the rules, you'd expect an appropriate response/action by any organization charged with enforcing the rules.
I would wet my pants laughing if Iowa Admissions rejected Teemer.
Nothing against Teemer -- I'd be perfectly happy if he got accepted to MIT or Stanford for grad school. Just the whole thought that Iowa donors are now wasting their money in getting other schools' wrestlers to apply there ... ick factor off the charts.
Let Iowa donors waste their meth lab money. Gotta spend it before the DEA cracks down on ya.
Good for him. PSU guys branching out is only going to make the sport stronger. The Cael coaching tree is on it’s way to looking like the Gable coaching tree.
Not tying to make light of the situation, but I find the wording "malicious injury to property" to be amusing. As opposed to friendly injury.
rumors seem to indicate as much, but nothing announced as of yet.
It wouldn't surprise me all that much. The last time I spoke with RBY, he basically indicated that his main workout partner was Thomas Gilman.
Amid tough cancer battle, UPJ wrestling coach Pat Pecora set to exit hospital
Facing the toughest battle of his life, Pat Pecora is relying on the lessons that he has preached to his Pitt-Johnstown wrestlers over the past 48 years.
It sure is. Trying to learn more. I know the obvious implication is that his career is over, but he hasn't said anything more since that post went up.
Perhaps not -- he's kind of noncommittal.
The below article contains the following:
Competing in this year’s Olympics means Retherford is already qualified for the team trials in 2028. And with the next Games being held in the U.S., Retherford said he is open to the possibility of competing.
When wrestlers retire, they often leave their shoes on the wrestling mat as a symbol. His shoes were not left on the mat in Paris.
He plans to stay in State College to continue training with his wrestling club, and depending on how he feels in four years, he might give the Olympics one more go.
“It’s never say never,” Retherford said. “I could maybe see myself not competing until then and putting my hat in the ring for one more Olympic cycle in 2028. Time will tell. We’ll see.”
wow, I did not see this coming.
Congrats to Morgan State, and congrats to the EIWA!!!
