Wow. I was completely unaware of this. Absurd.

He's been at Illinois for six years now.  I wonder if there is a grad program somewhere else that he decides to use for his last year?  Or remains at Illinois for all seven years.  It's a great school with a lot of offerings so he can certainly find a good selection of grad programs there.

Lisa I forgot about Ono. Are you picking Ayala over Ono?

Does anybody know if Ono can get off bottom? He's a hell of a wrestler in neutral, is he just as awesome at Mat wrestling?    His closest match at either of his worlds was against Blaze.  I would bet right now that Blaze would beat him and folk style

He is a world class freestyle wrestler not a ham and egger. I wouldn't worry about his folk skill set not being up to par

Yeah, he's going to be problems on his feet for anyone but two things he hasn't dealt with are:

1.  Making weight all season with college weigh-in rules and how that affects strength, conditioning, and explosiveness.  

2. Elite top wrestlers.  I'd take a Lovett-type wrestler over a world champ up a weight or two from international competition who's never wrestled on the mat.

I could see him going 141 because of this.
