    Another year for Luke Lilledahl as well. Penn State's studs in the lineup for 5 years instead of 4 can only be a good thing from a team perspective.

    '26 Final X, 6/19, thread

    Don't think Dake has any interest in coaching until his career is over and as long as he is making national teams, that probably won't be until after the 2028 Olympics.

    Transfer Portal 2026 + Other team movements

    Nebraska must have some solid financial boosters because the have been one of the more active portal players over the past few years. I know Manning can rub people the wrong way but he is doing a really good job with that program.

    Five in Five - What Might That Look Like?

    Crookham is such a roll of the dice. High ceiling, could be a finalist. Low floor, cold be injured and doesn't wrestle in the post season.

    Next Year’s Lineup '26

    Here is one quote on the subject: "In the summer of 1979 Mark and Dave Schultz made the Junior World Team, met Oklahoma Assistant coach Jim Humphrey who convinced them to transfer to Oklahoma University." Mark is the one I was talking about, he was a 3 time NCAA Champion and didn't start...

    Next Year’s Lineup '26

    Mark Schultz another example of limited experience out of high school, although I think he only wrestled two years which is insane. He wrestled as a true freshman and did not AA. Then transferred to Oklahoma, redshirted and proceeded to win 3 NCAA championships.
