    Coaching Staff Next Year

    Terry briefly talks about the hire has to be an upgrade to Telford. (A post tourney Terry Brands interview posted on YouTube 3 days ago). I tried to link it here, sometimes when I link videos here it says they are unavailable.

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    Willie just posted this on Intermat forum. Ferrari situation is really interesting. (what else is new) nebraska essentially said they weren't renewing his deal. the obvious thing would be for him to go to Iowa w/ Angelo. but Beth Goetz won't allow it. that's from AJ himself. so now what...

    I wouldn't get too wrapped on recruit rankings. They're nice guidelines but not all top 5 pfp recruits are the same. If you were watching the tourneys Vega was clearly the real deal....if that wasn't a top 10 recruit then I'm not understanding what a top 10 recruit is. Robideau you could tell...

    I somewhat agree with this, I do think PSU prioritizes a certain body type (long arms for one) and that helps them identify a few guys like Levi Haines and Josh Barr (not that either guy was a low ranked kid) over maybe a similarly ranked kid that doesn't have the physical / mental attributes...

    AJ going to be a Hawk?

    I don't think he'd leave over taking a back seat for 1 year. 1. He and his father both are all in on Iowa; Iowa actually was his dream team and I'm well aware he committed to ASU first. 2. He would still get a lot of wrestling in. He'd get several tourneys, probably more than a few duals...

    And how do pro sports mitigate this?? The worst teams get the highest draft picks. How does college wrestling operate? The best team in wrestling landed the #1, #2, #8, #18, #33 pfp in the 2025 class and brought in an Olympic Gold Medalist from Japan. Imagine the Patriots in the Brady /...

    I don't think he needs a waiver. He was trying to get an additional year for the auto accident year (wasn't going to happen). Maybe the guy that posted that is conflating that.

    In different years. Hakeem Olajuwan and Joe Smith were both #1 overall picks in different NBA drafts. I'm not sure that's a totally relevant argument. Vega was a STUD....I told a Cornell buddy of mine, that I thought Vega was THE most impressive kid at Super 32 after it was over and that...

    I'm so used to referring to AJ as Fast Twitch, I capitalized fast twitch.

    Fast Twitch vs slow twitch muscle fiber can be a factor. Bailey is muscular and lean but look at his ankles, calves, quads....he's kind of wispy.

    Which could tell you that weight cutting isn't his gassing issue. Bump him to 149 and see if he still gasses....just kidding to make a point.

    The $54 question is how liberally was this allowed to be applied? Meaning, say your roster was 38 when the court ruling came down; were you allowed to only designate 8? or 11 potentials? or the entire roster? IDK the answer, and like most things, there are always loopholes on how this is applied.

    That was my understanding also. I've seen a couple of posts here lately about this issue and this board is the only place talking about roster limits. The way it was explained to me is any wrestler on a roster at a certain date was grandfathered in for the remainder of his time in college...
