I doubt MM has to lose much if any weight at all plus he will Score more pts at 165 at NCAA

It's up to him as far as i know. He does not like cutting weight.
And i think he'd love the challenge of scoring bonus points at 174.
He's still young for his grade so he may still be growing but his current walking around weight makes 157 not really much of a cut.
Haines had a small cut to 174 but was still competitive at 157 despite a massive cut. Duke's cut to 157 was much worse that what James would currently face. Heck, listen to Nolf talk about a post-holiday cut while at 157.
James would be fine at 157 for a year.
His (Messenbrink) walking around weight is low 170s. His cut to 165 is pretty much be nothing burger.
James' walking around weight is low 160s and his cut to 157 will be pretty much be a nothing burger.
James is not a low 160s. Unless something changed and he's made a decision to go 157.
Like I said, his coaches saw him the week after WTT over 170 (after practice).
Can Duke make 157 again? He mentioned he got used to managing it better by the end but it won’t be easy.
This doesn’t really add up. He weighed 158 on the final weigh in of the state tournament when he could’ve weighed 167 at the end of March. He was over a kilo under 2nd day of Senior WTT and 2 weeks after that he wrestled U20s.
Kid has a big family and is getting bigger. not really that surprising. James will be at 165 or 174, depends on what MM does. PJ 157.
I get that his Dad and brother are bigger but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything, look at Fredo compared to his Dad and older brother. You’re the only person I’ve seen saying he weighed over 170 after practice a week after WTT. His actual confirmed weight at the end of March and the end of May would suggest otherwise.
I get it I’m not mad at you but did it come from the same guy who told you Feldman was transferring to PSU? Because maybe don’t take that guys word as gospel and I’m not even trying to be facetious.
Naw. didn't come from that guy. Came from someone who actually saw him on the scale.
James is your 165 or 174. Book it!
I figure he will be a bigger kid, but I will be shocked if he isn't the 57 pounder this year.
Of course I am wrong a bit more than I like to admit, and I could be wrong here
PSU the fort knox of information. So I could be wrong as well. But I've heard it from a couple of people i trust.
