Virginia Tech next year

VT will have a tough lineup next year. Ventresca, Seidel, Henson, Bassett, Sasso, Mullen — and others!

Should Miller pull a Jax so VT can put all their horsepower together next season?

Yes. The could legit win the team title if Miller wrestles.

No, they could not. That is hilarious. 

[AZ_wrestling]

I’m for it. He’s certainly old enough, and if he wrestles VT would be in the mix for runner up.

Will NIL money play a role here?

[wrestlingfan22]

I am curious what they do from that 133-157 stretch. They have Seidel, Campbell, Crook, Bassett, Henson, Gaj, Nininiger, and potentially Miller in that range. I think their best possible lineup is 

133: Seidel

141: Bo

149: Henson

157: Nininger/Gaj

165: Miller

But, if Miller is a 157 then they can RS Gaj and Nininger rides the pine. Either way I think Campbell and Crook are odd men out.

Miller is a 157. Burton can probably go 165 for one more year too.

RS Gaj and then he goes 157. Nininger probably lives in the weight room to try to jump up to 165 after Burton. 

[Truzzcat]

I think had Ninninger and Gaj not shown that they are super ready it would be more of a no brainer although Gaj has been much better at 149 than 157.

potential 125-165 lineups next year

Those are 3 salty lineups, and do not forget about Ohio State, as only losing  Mendez.

My God, VT could win it all if there were only 6 weight classes.  Interesting to see how the OSU lineup shakes out.

Has it been determined that Henson is going 149 next year?

No, but that's the going expectation as of now due to his Freestyle goals to follow.

When it came out that he was redshirting this year someone came out and said he was moving up to 157 next year (maybe mineo) and Henson corrected that and said he ll be back at 149 next season

Until Bo Bo Drama Momma Bassett steps on a college mat, I won't put him on VTs point prediction. He has already switched schools once and something tells me he isn't done.

so the 25 year old who had an 80 team countdown to announce his school choice, who decided within 2 months that he wanted something different, who makes sure all eyes are on him at all times, isn't prone to drama queen behavior? sure, buddy. Bassett is about as loyal as your ex wife.

He’s 19, he was committed to Iowa until the brands got into with his parents and yelled at Mrs Bassett and hung up the phone on her, pretty reasonable to move onto another option after that

and your version of history proves my point. how did that story get out? the bassetts? exactly. drama drama

 

also, if you think Brands yelled at her, you are a moron. 

[WrestlingRash]

so we know bo and jax played the age cheating game, but did Miller do it too? How old is he? Is he another one of these 2 years too old guys? If so, he should do summer school, graduate early and join VT for the entire season.

Not to feed into your whole thing, but Miller is currently 18, will turn 19 in October. If he reclasses for the full year he will be a "true" aged freshman, starting at 18.

another age cheater. so crazy to see elite guys doing it, who would have been elite without cheating. someone is giving their parents and these athletes some rotten advice.

Brands has alienated and has beef with darn near every wrestler that has left iowa from metcalf to Ramos to Gilman. The number 4 wrestler in the country just got kicked off the team in the middle of the night with no explanation but yea sure Brands would never get into it with a parent. I’m sure it’s everyone else’s fault and not the Brands and the 100 percent loyalty cult they started.
