  1. Iowa seems to have the best shot given all their NIL/transfer portal firepower. But who else might challenge Cael and Crew this year?
  2. So Teemer has to win it, since he was runner up last year. Parco, Caliendo and Buchanan would all have to at least make the finals since they are all already multiple time AAs.
  3. Seems like their best guys this year will be: Parco (ASU) Teemer (ASU) Caliendo (NDSU) Buchanan (Wyoming, Oklahoma) Meanwhile homegrown studs like Ayala and Brands aren't looking so hot... What does this say about Iowa when all their best guys weren't actually developed in the Iowa room?
  4. He is a legit title contender.
  5. Neither Levi or Starocci are funky wrestlers though. In fact they may be the least funky starters on the team. They are bread and butter fundamentals.
  6. I think we may be underestimating the size difference between a 157 pounder moving up 2 weight classes vs a guy who wrestled 184 last year. Arnold is huge.
  7. Huh, so Wrestlestat thinks Levi is a tougher match for Arnold than Starocci...
  8. Who does Arnold have a better shot at taking out? Levi Haines at 174 or Carter Starocci at 184? 174 is probably closer to Arnold's natural weight and Haines is *only* a 1x NCAA champ. Haines is also moving up 2 weight classes so Arnold is surely the bigger man naturally. 184 is probably a little bigger than Arnold's natural weight, but Starocci is also moving up from 174 and also coming off a major knee injury, so this is a closer call than initially appears.
  9. Why would he have to wait a semester? Isn't he in grad school at Iowa?
  10. Bob Nicholls should send over a Brinks truck to wherever Ono is staying. Iowa needs a 125 pounder...
  11. He'll wrestle. Bob didn't pay him $500,000 to sit in sweats.
  12. P Kennedy Hawk Item • U23 National Champion at the 2024 World Team Trials at Spire Academy in Ohio • Won U23 men’s freestyle national championship at the 2022 World Team Trials in Ohio
  13. Why not get rid of AA altogether? Champion or nothing?
  14. Imagine being a current U23 medalist and not being able to start on your NCAA D-1 team
  15. Teemer is at 157. They didn’t pay him all that NIL to not wrestle him.
  16. So who does he supplant when he's over the jetlag?
  17. Teemer Caliendo Arnold Ferrari Kennedy Brands Buchanan 7 guys have to fit in 5 weight slots. Who will be the 2 odd men out?
  18. Oh and I forgot about Teemer and Buchanan too on the bookends. There's simply no room at the inn with all the transfers.
  19. He is killing it in freestyle but does he even crack the Hawkeyes lineup? If so, where? I don't see where he fits between Caliendo, Arnold and Brands.
