Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Just now, Le duke said: Nothing was said about staffs. You criticized the situation and Mesenbrink relying on freestyle positions. Also said it was a fluke. This was before they stepped foot in college, err I mean Haines was already in a college room, but Mesenbrink wasn't. We all know you have an 80 VO2 max, is it a 90 VO2 max when you are backtracking? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhs67 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 ALL this said... I would take Mesenbrink as well. There are a few signs pointing to not only him wrestling, but wrestling 157lbs if he does. - Bartlett posted a video (picture maybe?) of them working out with the caption "Just two 160lbers" - Ben has been trying to insert him in to the 157lb discussion on FRL as much as possible So, to me... smart money is on him wrestling 157 if he wrestles this season. Perhaps they start the season with both him and Haines under redshirt and Bearclaw with the nod? The difference being is that MM would have to not be enrolled to Oly-shirt... so there is that.

BigRedFan Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 15 minutes ago, Le duke said: We’re talking about Meyer Shapiro and Mitchell Messenbrink. Do people discussing them NOT know that they are U20 world champions? Like versus like. Also, given that I said “teched his way through”, it was pretty clear I wasn’t talking about Sidakov. Who had several close, non-technical superiority wins. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk By all means, keep digging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nhs67 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 So, this is what Track shows for their Certifying Weights... for 'EXPECTED WEIGHT' I used what Wrestlestat has them listed at, as Penn State won't likely update their until mid-January (phuktarts!)... Keep in mind that these gents could have certified a month or more ago and that some of these guys could keep in phenomenal shape, whereas some could let their weight get out of control. A few notes... - A 174.1-184.0lb Stalrocci is lower than I expected. - They have the grades very inaccurate in some instances (looking at the Lee brothers, Track!) - Kurt McHenry probably has a massive beer belly - I thought Kasak was Greyshirtting... appears not... he could be an option and let both Mesenbrink and Haines to Redshirt - Chochran already being under 197lbs actually surprised me.
