Bubba over Taylor hurt at the time but I’m cool with it now.
I’m picking unexpected losses that kept our guy from being a 4xer, or so it appeared at the time:
Myles over Bo NCAAs
Carr over Mesenbrink NCAAs
Lewis over Cenzo NCAAs
Glad to not see any Nits in the portal. Hope it mostly stays that way, thought I’ve been happy to root for guys like BearClaw and Evans. The fact that so many stay, even when R16 to AA caliber and not starting, seems to indicate guys like to be there.
So I’m literally the only person you’ve sent to a bar that wasn’t open? You couldn’t have offered Ben drinks on Monday at Happy Valley Brewing Company?
Difficult for me to believe he doesn’t end up at Iowa. It’s a perfect fit. Iowa needs a 133 and they can blame the inevitable Iowa injury problems on his pre-Iowa history.
If Duke wants to wrestle, but can’t make 157 again, and can’t beat MM at 165, I don’t think you just move MM from his ideal weight.
I don’t know this, but I’m guessing Levi would have rather moved up from 157 to 165 instead of all the way to 174. 165 / 74 kilos is MM’s.
In my view, you shirt Duke, wrestle Kasak, Duke goes on a Zain tear at 165 for the three years after. We’ve got options for 174, including potentially Rocco, who, from what I had read, didn’t want to move up to 184 when he did.
I’m no insider but I don’t see MM moving up up and away from a weight he can wrestle in Olympic years. He’s never going to be an 86 kilo guy and has anyone ever heard that he struggles to make 165? It’s not like we don’t have options at 174.
Everyone has Desmond penciled in at 141. We’ll...
