Isaac Jordan WISC

Bo Jordan/Micah Jordan OSU

I'd count this more than the Schultz' or the Deans. They're cousins that grew up wrestling together all the way through high school at St. Paris Graham. That was the Steiber led era that led Bo, Micah, and Rocky to break the family's Wisconsin legacy by being the first Jordan's to go to OSU.

I generally think it's weird that Brothers(close in age) go to different schools(maybe weird isn't the right word, but I expect them to go to the same school)

That's what I was thinking when I created this thread. I was curious if I was just oblivious to how often it has happened over the years, or if it is as rare as it seems to be. Most siblings end up at similar enough levels when they finish high school that they often are looking at similar types of programs.. and obviously when the older one chooses their school, it only makes sense for the younger one to follow. That's where the Blaze brothers are interesting, because obviously Joey is very good in his own right, but Marcus is just a different kind of animal. I never thought he would either, but it would have been awesome if Marcus went to Purdue. I'd love to see if that had any ripple effects. Who are some top flight recruits that did not commit to a mainstay wrestling program?

KOT and Aedon Sinclair are two big time recruits to Missouri. TBF idk if Missouri really counts as a non mainstay at this time. But they aren't the big programs in the B1G, Cornell, OKST, etc.

Alirez is probably the most notable in recent years by staying at Northern Colorado when they hadn't produced an NCAA in something like over 50 years?

So you asked us to list, "top siblings that competed and had notable college careers, but wrestled for different schools," and you don't like the Schultz/Deans answer, who were both pairs of siblings with notable careers and wrestled for different schools. But cousins you do think counts.

I did not say the cousins count. I said they meet the criteria of the original question more so than naming two brothers that went to the same school. The Dean's wrestled at Cornell, the Schultz' wrestled at OU. Are those the same schools? Oh, I guess so. If you want to try to circumvent the intent behind the question, just say so. If you want to get semantic about "different schools" then have at it.
