| RANK | WRESTLER | SCHOOL | CLASS |
|---|
| 6 | Demetrius Romero | Utah Valley | Senior |
| 7 | Peyton Mocco | Missouri | Junior |
| 13 | Dustin Plott | Oklahoma State | Sophomore |
Dustin Plott IS the returning Big 12. He’s also not right physically. Will he be back to 100% by the Conference Tournament? Here is a guy that everyone is waiting on to hit his stride and be the dominant wrestler he is capable of being. It feels like once he reaches that level, he’ll have the weight nailed down for the duration of his career. Are the expectations too high? Hope we don’t have to wait till next year. For OSU to compete for a NC in the near future, Plott has to reach his potential.
| RANK | WRESTLER | SCHOOL | CLASS |
|---|
| 2 | Parker Keckeisen | Northern Iowa | Sophomore |
| 4 | Marcus Coleman | Iowa State | Senior |
| 11 | Travis Wittlake | Oklahoma State | Junior |
What a somewhat maddening situation to have a guy as talented as Wittlake and have a hole in your lineup at 165. This Class looks almost exactly like 149 & 165. 3rd seems realistic, can you crash the party and make the finals? Like Fix, Carr, & O’Toole, Keckeisen is NC Caliber.
