    Good for Bakersfield getting some guys in.

    I believe he has the u23 spot at 65kg he could have 61 for u20 not sure if an American has ever done two different weights.

    In all fairness, Ok State only had 19 on their roster from Oklahoma.

    More information about "Cornell and Purdue Add to Impressive '26 Recruiting Classes"
    While the news of the evening on Wednesday was the flip of #52 Claudio Torres (Lake Highland Prep, FL) to Iowa, there have been a couple of key commitments from the Class of 2026 that you shouldn’t overlook. Cornell and Purdue already have impressive groups of commitments from the Class of 2026; however, that didn’t stop them from adding to them within the last 24 hours. Purdue kept a strong prospect in-state as they got a commitment from #112 Parker Reynolds (Brownsburg, IN). Reynolds is a two-time Indiana state placer taking sixth as a sophomore and winning a state championship at 150 lbs in 2025. He’s currently ranked #25 in the nation at that weight. After the 2024 season, Reynolds finished fifth at NHSCA Sophomore Nationals. Reynolds’ commitment gives Purdue five of the top 112 wrestlers in the country. The class is led by #31 Camden Baum (Bishop McDevitt, PA). Reynolds also took visits to George Mason and Indiana before settling on Purdue. At the next level, Reynolds projects as a 157 or 165 lber. 165, in particular, is a need for the Boilermakers who have some young wrestlers waiting in the wings, but no definite successor to Stoney Buell, whose eligibility expires in 2026. Cornell tends to recruit well in head coach Mike Grey’s home state of New Jersey and that continues with the commitment of Santino Rodriguez (Don Bosco Prep, NJ). Rodriguez is a two-time New Jersey state placewinner. As a freshman, he was sixth in the 120 lb weight class. In 2025, he was third all the way up at 165 lbs. Rodriguez has placed at the NHSCA grade-level tournament in each of the last two seasons, taking fifth in the sophomore division and second a year later. Rodriguez is currently ranked #144 in the Class of 2026. His commitment gives Grey’s team verbals from eight top 200 prospects! Cornell’s Class of 2026 has plenty of 149/157 types, but Rodriguez should end up around 174 or higher once he gets to Ithaca. With freshman All-American Simon Ruiz returning at 174 lbs, that weight doesn’t look like a dire need for the Big Red; however, weights can change and a little competition never hurt. Earlier this month, Rodriguez took a visit to Ivy League rival Columbia - in addition to his trip to Ithaca. For all of the recent recruiting news, check out our commitment page

    I only watched a few Long Rangers, But My dad would use the kemosabe jokes all the time!

    Marcus Blaze, senior in HS , can be on the national team at two different weights if he beats Brock Hardy (or Hardy doesn't show up) for the true 3rd.

    Your sand pyramid dream feels like a Sisyphean struggle. Did you catch reruns of The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin or The Lone Ranger in the ‘60s? I used to watch Western reruns (80s) with my dad, and quicksand was a classic trap.

    Kish doing everything he can to not recruit Oklahoma HS kids. Bold strategy.

    I still remember first seeing him in San Diego '79. Someone in our group said- How are you supposed to wrestle THAT?

    In elementary school, I would dream I was climbing a sand pyramid and as I get 2/3rds of the way up I start sinking and the sand try's to envelope me. I lived across the street from a forging plant making truck parts where huge hammers would pond in rhythm through the night in the 60's. Would wake up before being swallowed by the sand. Wow I just had a thought. No matter how hard you try there are some things you just cant reach.

    Best work advice I ever received was probably "Don't let other people's piss poor performance affect your performance." Close second "Work is like a stage...every time you come through those doors it's show time; however, if you aren't ready or can't perform stay home...that is way better than showing up and not performing to your best ability"...not sure why that one stuck with me but it did.

    This right here has been the single most…umm…revealing…aspect of this thread for me.

    A successful salesman from Pennsylvania was offered a promising job in the Midwest but hesitated, gripped by fear of failure. He confided in his father, expressing his worry that he might get fired and fail to provide for his family. His father calmly asked, "What’s the worst that could happen? You’d move into our basement, regroup, and be back on your feet within a year. Go for it." Reassured by this perspective, the salesman found the courage to take the risk and pursue the opportunity. This eventual SR VP shared his personal story with me in a small group setting at work. "What's the worse that could happen" is now stressed in my family with big decisions.

    My most memorable and scary dream that I had a lot as a kid but only every once in a while now is watching a plane crash, and waking up super scared/stressed. Now I have started dreaming that I am in a plane that feels like it is going to crash and somehow doesn't.

    Seriously...what is wrong with you??

    I just hope we aren't too late for it to really create a positive for schools to have the sport - both men and women. Right now, Flag Football has added 78 women's teams in just a year across all divisions. NFL behind it. That's actual money pushing it. That's going to be the sport we have to contend with when it comes to adding programs - at the Division I level, adding programs at the P4 level for any sport probably isn't going to happen.

    As a kid, I had recurring dreams of fleeing a bear in a dark forest, always escaping but waking up scared, heart pounding. I’m not sure what caused them... maybe watching Jason or Freddy too young. The fear stuck with me, making the memory vivid. Now, I rarely remember my dreams. Speaking of dreams... did you ever watch What Dreams May Come (1998) with Robin Williams?

    I’m not tracking too close on commits flipping but this is at least two. Losing James hurt big time, Torres not so much.

    Depends what % of the crowd is PSU/NLWC fans. But TBH, he kinda deserves to be booed IMO. Just maybe not to the extent some NLWC fans treated Jordan Burroughs (who of course has never been arrested to my knowledge)
