    I think to win Richie figs is needed

    To counter psu champs

     

    Figure psu

    Sartocci, kerk close to locks

     

    Starocci can't be a lock up 1 or 2 weight classes.  Especially with Keck at 184.

    Jacori has not wrestled freestyle since 2017 and I have no idea the last time Buchannen did I would assume high school. So to me you are paying them to wrestle for a semester I don't foresee either guys being needle movers in freestyle. So I guess I should add a semester and good workout partners. I know they have alumni with A LOT of money but I just cannot imagine spending that kind of money when their biggest recruit from this upcoming class is Leo Deluca (who is very good). Unless their intent is to just buy proven commodities who are already In college moving forward I think those funds would be better allocated to ensuring they get these big high school recruits if they can truly afford to potentially pay 3 guys 1.5 million who in my opinion I could very well be wrong will never get close to making a national team out of school.

    I guess ultimately I may be underestimating the funding in wrestling and specifically at Iowas I just think its a foolish investment, it does put them in the national title hunt if some things swing their way though so perhaps it will prove to be fruitful. 

    Bob Nichols is very rich and wants Iowa to win a trophy badly.

    The rumor was 500k for Buchannen and Teemer but I have to think that number is BS for a semester, that is all I have heard though.

    Why do you believe it’s BS when wrestling reporters (including Willie) have stated it multiple times?  And it’s not just for a semester. It’s also to join HWC RTC.

    How is he able to transfer without being in the portal? Do the rules alter due to him being released (kicked off) from the team? 

    Teemer and Buchanan were never in the portal either and yet they are transferring to Iowa.

    He does have over 30k x followers, but not sure how much $ that makes.

    Hate to add to a Jimmy thread, but Mineo did delete the post that Teemer called false.  @VakAttack shared it previously, and it said Teemer had already been “given” an apartment.  So may have just been an incorrect choice of words (and possibly another instance of Mineo being “mostly” but not 100% accurate), I’m guessing that he was just offered it at that point.

    I would wager Teemer won’t be paying for housing in Iowa City this year.

    100%… he was a very big 165.  He’s not going 157 …as was said Teemer is getting paid to go 157 

    Teemer was a gigantic 157 pounder.  He may need to go on the John Smith diet to make 157 again.

    Why recruit high schoolers when you can recruit proven college wrestlers? Top programs will always pluck top talent from lesser programs, this is the new normal. Very few top teams do not have transfers in their line up.

    Rank the top 5 teams that do not have a transfer in their line up. This could be fun.

    I actually forgot they had another transfer at 149 - Kyle Parco.  60% of their lineup is going to be transfers.

    Iowa lineup next season:

    125 Cruz (transfer)

    133 Ayala

    141 Voinovich (transfer)

    149 Parco (tranfser)

    157 Caliendo (transfer)

    165 Teemer (transfer)

    174 Arnold

    184 Brands

    197 Buchanan (transfer)

    HWT Keuter

    I guess you don’t think Parco is gonna be the 149???

    Wow, I totally forgot, thank you! So 60% of the starters will be transfers.

    A potential finalist at 157 is really nice, like wiping your butt with silk nice. But if the rumblings about him wanting to go up to 165 are true, this looks like a weird move, unless Caliendo can make 157 (I am under the impression that Kennedy really cannot cut down below 165)

    Iowa fans were convinced Caliendo was a small 165 pounder so the cut to 157 should be doable.
