Without putting down anyone too much I will say I have heard Lewis is a handful and Downey is worse. Don't think the coaches want another headache regardless of talent.
I didn't hear anything about wrestle-offs unless it was just in-team. Hoped Scott would get the call but not surprised given the way this post started. Really doesn't make sense that they were not using their best option the whole year.
I don't think Grello will get in the starting line up for at least two more years. He was healthy when he lost to scott...add in basically a year off. I hope I'm wrong but it's possible we never see him start.
I don't think Grello will live up to expectations either. Only because they are a little too high. JVB and Lewis should do nicely next year though. Maybe Scott will have a good big ten showing and get some confidence.
That has to be the reason and I'm more of a Scott fan then the other two. If that is it then they should have just let him wrestle the whole year. The Pafumi thing makes no sense unless they are just paying him back for time served.
