    Next Year’s Lineup '26

    I think we will target high end transfers at 65 and 84. Possibly at heavy if they don’t want to go with Ross straight away but something about him tells me he will go next year. Dee and Ryder will RS would be my guess. Forest and Vega both bump up a weight.

    Nebraska Dual

    It’s what we have to try to do until we can really mount a challenge. Saying it and doing it are two different things and it’s amazing what DT has been able to do the last 2 years!!

    2026 NCAA Wrestling Championship Official Thread

    Jax and Vega should move on to the semis. Everyone else has really tough matches to advance. Troy, Landon and Cody probably have the next best shots. Not sure what to expect from Dee this morning. People questioning the future for him aren’t way off but let’s see if he can rally.

    Oklahoma State V. Virginia Tech

    If either guy isn’t pretty close to 100% or where he thinks they can be for the big 12’s, they sit. Easy call. Especially for Ryder as I don’t think he beats either 184 for Iowa at anything less than 100%.

    Oklahoma State V. Virginia Tech

    VT will be favorites in 3 of first 4 weights if Jax doesn’t wrestle. Could make for a nervy start.

    Next Year’s Lineup '26

    I still don't think we will see much change on the NIL front and that from talking to both ADs here in Oklahoma and seeing some of the NIL offers still going out to HS prospects in several sports.

    Northern Iowa/ ISU

    57 could be interesting as well. I would pick LR but Zerban is good and different.

    Seeding and matchup will be critical for him.

    Consensus Rankings 01/21/2026

    Vega, Dee and Jax can all end up in the finals which would not be a stretch. I think we at least have one Cowboy wrestling Saturday night.

    Consensus Rankings 01/21/2026

    We have two RS FR as Ryder along with Merrill are both RS FR. Both have been underwhelming but it takes upper weights awhile and each still have some runway to improve.

    Seidel majored Tyler Knox. One of the other stud FR at 133. I’m glad Jax is going but that is a deep and tough weight. Going to be a fun on at nationals.

    Jax and Tagen at Cyclone Open; Ronnie at Roger Denker Open

    I think the hope with Tagen is that he would get fully healthy sooner. He isn’t quite 100% and with the short window and Swid seemingly wrestling better, a RS or MRS seems like the smart play. Tagen will need and want to be fully healthy next year as he will probably have a fight on his hands...

    Jax and Tagen at Cyclone Open; Ronnie at Roger Denker Open

    Swiderski has been much better last few times out but having Tagen hot on his heels seems good for all parties.

    Other notable results and news

    No question but if you are Iowa, you are asking what has happened to Ayala? Why hasn’t Kueter developed and what are we getting with the money invested in the portal this offseason?

    Other notable results and news

    Iowa has a tough decision on their hands. They need to move on from TnT if they want to compete for national championships in the future. PSU won every big matchup and were dominant in a few others. The difference between the two teams was stark and has to be alarming to Iowa fans. Provo upset...
