    Robinson in the portal helps us in two ways, one it removes one of State's top guys and two it adds an high end 125 transfer option, even if we don't go for him that is another guy that other schools will which will theoretically make it easier to pick up one of the other top guys in the portal

    For anyone not following things from other sources, Stanford, who had an incredible tournament, has had a ton of portal entries, they are not going to be the same team next year if even some of their portal entries end up transferring. This both weakens a conference rival and is an opportunity...

    Some further info on the recruit I mentioned in the last post, he is ranked the #6 HWT in the country on flowrestling, so he is a pretty good addition to the room

    Looks like we got another recruit for next year, if you check the football board the lineman that committed today was a NJ HWT State Champ and said he is going to play football and wrestle for us

    I agree, we have a lot of young guys around 141 that might could grow into 149, and I haven't given up on Askew developing, though I did hope we could get him a redshirt year to give him more time, Dailey I was hoping would be the guy we could build around for the next few years in the upper...

    Wow, I hate seeing that, changes up our possible needs, hopefully we either have a young guy ready to step up or can land a replacement in the portal

    Just a note on that 3rd place finish, his only loss all season was to the eventual champion in the semi finals, a guy he had beaten earlier in the season, but he was probably the second best wrestler at the weight, and a very close second. That said his injury history since that season is very...

    I saw that too, he is certainly a really good wrestler, he is not at a position of need for us, but he is an instant title contender if he can stay healthy

    Honestly with how off Oakley seemed this year and how much potential I think those two guys have I could see us being improved at 133 from this season

    Hepner being back is great news, at times he was the most fun to watch wrestler on the team, and obviously he managed to do the best in the post season (ACC Champ and All-American). Will be nice to have a returning All-American, hopefully his performance at NCAAs this year gives him confidence...

    For any of you not watching the finals 1. you should be they have been incredibly entertaining 2. Mesenbrink the guy that beat Hepner in the championships just won by Tech Fall in the finals and the fact that Hepner held him to a decision came up twice during the coverage, and I would argue...

    Hepner with a dominate 9-1 win takes 7th place, also that is a major dec so he gets us a bonus point victory for the team score

    there have been some great matches this year, hoping we can have more guys involved in the big matches soon

    Important note, Hepner transferred in from Ohio State where he never finished as an All-American, and in one season here improved to the point of making All-American, so clearly we have better development that Ohio State. At least that is how I am taking this result, and how I would sell it to...

    Hepner just got a hard fought 1-0 win and secured his spot as an All-American this year
