Unless Boone goes in a deep dark place within himself and hits an epiphany it’s hard to imagine a big improvement here.. b10 returns 6AA at hwt along w/ another 2-3 very competitive guys.. just a stacked weight.
True, but at least he shows a pulse out there compared to CC. Boone is going to let it fly.
Janzers last year at 184, he and the coaches were worried he would not make the weight...it was a very tuff cut. Janzer is a short 197, but he is not a small 197
Where have you seen Goodale say that recently? Things change training all year kids have hard time keeping weight on. I don't throw **** at the wall and hope it sticks. My sources are spot on
He is now he's a small 197. He was having a hard time keeping weight on this year. Those are the facts I know some don't want to believe it but it's true. Janzer is not a 197 anymore
Wow, surprises me, but you have a good posting history so gonna believe you. Be interesting if coaches decide to redshirt Poz or not next year.
Everything in this thread is good news for RU and for Janzer. I was obvious 197 was not the best weight for Janzer. Janzer now adds depth and options at 184. Transfer in will be solid at 197 for next year.
He's a small 197 now because he's thinking of dropping to 184. He wasn't a small 197 during the season. I don't see Poz redshirting next year. The best wrestler will start next year at 184.
Agreed. We can't keep neglecting the 165 lb weight. Donner just isn't good enough at this level to be the starter.
Bulsak is only here for one year.. so Janzer can either win the 97 spot or drop to 84 and Poz uses a RS or ride the bench for a year.
Cant believe Aguilar would be an afterthought to even start now... I remember two years ago everyone was saying “future AA” etc...
Wouldn't shock me if Aguilar ends up in the portal.
It is shocking but he was so bad last year. It was like a different wrestler out there. I hope he returns to form and hits the weights hard so he can be in the mix.
I wouldn't say we're neglecting it. We've missed on recruits and the ones we brought in haven't planned out. We always knew Donner was a depth/room guy. 9.9 only goes so far.
I don't recall everyone saying he was a future AA. Instead, I recall people always worrying about his size and strength and hoping he'd grow into the weight and get stronger because he'd get in on a lot of shots but couldn't finish.
Poz just took 4th in the country as a true freshman and will technically be a true freshman again next year. You don’t redshirt him to make a starting spot available for both Janzer/Bulsak who are fringe NQs.
2 years ago when Aguilar went on his heater run.. a lot of the fan base was saying he was a future AA at his improvement rate... I was still skeptical bc he was still inconsistent.. once he started losing ppl started worrying bout his size n strength..
Not sure I’d consider Bulsak a fringe NQ, as he is a 4x NQ w/ a 10th and 14th seed before.. but those seeds might have been obtained bc he was in a weaker conference.. and for w.e reason he always underperformed at nationals.
Someone mentioned Poz might use a rs.. if he did, which seems doubtful, then Janzer can slot in at 84 for a year... or if Janzer doesn’t beat out Bulsak at 197 then Janzer will have to ride the bench for a year. Hope that makes sense.
This whole discussion about Janzer dropping weight is puzzling. Poz is precisely what we want in the line-up and as competitive as anyone else in college wrestling. A redshirt makes no sense to me. Janzer dropping to 184 makes him face Poz, where he doesn't stand a chance IMO. I do think weight training and eating well will strengthen his performance at 197 and make him competitive with Bulsak. I don't see Bulsak as strong as others do but do recognize the competition at 197 is very positive. With the two new transfers plus six incoming freshmen, and Colon presumingly coming off gray, there need to be some serious cuts to make a 30 man roster.
Okay, if Poz does something that doesn't make sense, then the rest will make sense.
I did say Poz RS was doubtful... it’s basically bulsak vs Janzer for 197... not much to make sense. If Janzer wins the spot then Bulsak’s transfer seems questionable.. so whoever wins this weight needs to go and be a AA for the sake of the other one pushing them.
Face value, Bulsak gets 197. But it all comes down to what happens in the practice room.
Did not say he would, but redshirt decisions are usually complex decisions. Brooks from PSU has 3 years left, Hidlay 3 years left, UNI kid 4 years......
I think Cael told him to redshirt because he knew Penn State wasn’t winning the team title that year anyway.
No kidding
I was just thinking the same thing after his latest Rutgers put down. Maybe not Matter as he can't hide his disdain for Rutgers(kids psychotic) but you guys are definitely onto something.
If Poz doesn't red shirt, he's a freshman again next year (isn't he)? If he does redshirt, wouldn't he then lose that extra year?
Geez you guys think everyone who disagrees with you is trolling RU ...in this thread he certainly wasn’t trolling that I can see ...saying we don’t have team title aspirations next year is kinda on point ..we ain’t there yet and his saying Poz should not RS next year I agree with ..no sure Janzer won’t beat out new guy anyway so why mess with Poz at all ...Matter ?....that guy is an idiot who hates RU ...I don’t see this guy spewing hate at all ...oh NO ...AM I A TROLL NOW LOL
