Could this be consider a weight transfer and thus something fly should be tracking? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first I'm hearing of this news. It would not surprise me as I think about how large he looks as a 125. I also think back to a few matches last year where he looks gassed early and lost unexpected matches to the likes of Diego Sotelo and Joey Fischer. The former who proved to be a much better wrestler than I knew, but still not the caliber that Noto is. Looking at the lineup, Gable Strickland at 133 has not used a redshirt year yet and could potentially use one this year. They would then need to put forth a true freshman at 125. In the MAC, I don't think that is as big of a deal. They have a bunch of freshman coming in at 125, but I think Dean Houser would be best suited to start right away. Darren Florance is a 3X NY State Champ, but he won this year at 116 and will need some time to fill out into a proper 125. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarletKnight Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 I heard Noto looking to redshirt this year and be 133 next year. Strickland would still be 133 this year 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nhs67 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 You gents mean to tell me that 125lbs is difficult for growing men to hold? Davis, Ayala, Noto, and Stanich all decide 125lbs is too low? 1 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, just because we are hefty as a nation does not mean the lowest weight class needs increased. If the UWW dictates an increase, I will agree then. Of course, I am of the mind that we need to line our scholastic and collegiate weights with UWW. "I know actually nothing.

Plus you add in Crookham, Bailey, Ragusin, Frost, Shawver, Orine & Nagao For 11 total AAs at the weight? That already is a bloodbath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, Stanich and Crookham are on the same team so only one can wrestle 133. Second, Davis and Nagao are on the same team so only one can wrestle 133. Third, Davis is not an AA. I agree that it is a tough weight with a lot of depth but it does lack those top end guy that we have seen the last few years (i.e. Vito, RBY, Fix). Now, maybe Crookham/Bailey/Ayala will end up being those guys. Time will tell. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bring up a good point a top guy though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
