Bearclaw to UVU - makes sense but still surprising no bigger suitors

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

Terrell Barraclough has transferred back home to UVU which makes sense since he's a Utah native.  However, given that he's probably a AA threat this year I'm surprised no bigger programs tried to land him as a 157 or 165 pounder.

I believe he got into 3 schools that had his master's program and one of them was PSU so if he wanted to wrestle, I think UVU and Arizona state were his only two options to continue his schooling.

Arizona State would have been a better fit, at least in terms of wrestling

I miss the Transfer Portal thread?  Oh wait it is still active and used frequently.

He's from Utah, and ASU is very good at 165 and 174 with Teemer and Ruiz 157 may not be on the table for him anymore.

How do you know bigger programs weren’t after him and he chose UVU anyway? Good for him and UVU.

I believe VT had his masters program, our boards mentioned that a few times. Maybe we just stuck with Brady.

You are 3 months behind on your rumors.... from JD's piece on the Iowa lineup there is no mention of Teemer, but I did find this tibit : "Caliendo is ranked #2 in the preseason rankings behind Mitchell Mesenbrink. Caliendo was 0-3 against Mesenbrink last season with the closest match being 12-6.

Utah Valley in Bordom Central..., Utah.

Where 1950 is just now catching up to the State.

#1 in Polygamy in the US.

At least they now have a coach who will be more concerned with wrestling than how his hair looks.

I wouldn't be bored with multiple wives.

Your other two points are valid.  I am rather stoked to see what Hall can do.

Could you keep up with all the honey do lists?

In that scenario I would make the honey-do lists.

The list would start and begin with me.

multiple divorces 

[Threadkilla]

I'm curious if  Cael will schedule a dual with UVU, with TB there and Cody used to be the head coach.

Brigham Young was had at least 5 divorces. Has me wondering how you can have a divorce when your "marriage" was not legal in the first place?

The State Constitution even makes Polygamy illegal but it is seldom enforced. As in more than 50,000 known polygamists in the State.

Iowa State was talking with him for 165.  I think he was set on wrestling his last year close to home
