OSU Expected Starting Lineups

[nhs67]

Greetings All,

Rather than let any old grimy-folk in here, I thought it might be beneficial to get one going here in the OSU portion of the club area...

How do we see it playing out?  There are a lot of ways that it could shake out, but how do we think it will shake out?

I think at 141 it is Hughes if he is healthy.  Does Jamison try to go to 141 again.  I hope not as he is cutting to much weight to get there and I think that explains his weak showings at the NCAAs. I think they redshirt Vega.

If I am right at 141, then 149 is battle between Jamison and Swiderski.  Does loser try to go to 157.

157 is interesting.  We have 3 quality 149 pounders, Jamison, Swiderski, and Travis.  Travis has gone up in past, but I think he is weakest of 3.  Also have top recruit Robideau who is true 157 pounder.  

I agree with other weight classes with one possible change. Could Lockett make 157 (wrestled 163 in freestyle this summer).  Then put Facundo at 165, Ryder at 174, and Thompson at 184.  Part of question is how good is Thompson now after poor showing in 2023/4.  All indications are that is not the way things are going to play out.
