I'm not sure how anyone could argue against adding a weight class between 97 and 285. Club teams have a 235 weight class. It just makes sense adding one there. 

11 weights?  I’m in!

Now I think we could all agree that 11 > 10 in that scenario.  NCWA actually has a 235lb weight class (currently), IIRC.

Ragusin appears out for the season due to injury.  That upsets me.

In addition to the other 10?

Yes, they have 11 weight classes.

I'd be more in favor of spreading them out a bit rather than adding one. Maybe start after '41. 

149-152
157-163
165-174
174-190
184-205

 

There just arent' enough really good big guys to have a 235 and a 285. Or a 235 and even a 300-HWT(though that would make it easier for guys LIKE Dilian Johnson or Nash to Wrestle and play FB.

I still think the simplest (and admittedly not perfect) solution is to just 197 to 205.  Easy to implement and an improvement. 

Could also go 165, 175, 185, 205 and 285 for round numbers sake.  Easy adjustment in either case.

Weren’t you just suggesting to change 184/197 to 190/213?  I’m on board with that.  But we don’t need 197 + another weight before heavyweight.  The competition would be extremely watered down

change of heart??

In a perfect world sure I’d rather 11 weights.  But that’s not happening

Dude you spent two days arguing it would water down the talent pool. Now you're saying in a perfect world there would be 11 weights with the 197 included.

It would water down the talent pool. But if the NCAA wants to award more medals then I’m all for it.  My argument was referring to working within the confines of 10 weights.
