That was a thought I’d had, but Hawks is coming off a knee injury, to what extent I have no clue, but that big brace at the tail end of the season along with limited mobility didn’t look great. I’m not sure he could put on the necessary weight to be effective at 285. I’m intrigued on how it will play out.

Flo seems to agree with you. I know rankings don’t mean anything especially right now. But I found it interesting that Bates is ranked and Hawks isn’t.

Where does Evan Bates fit now that he has signed? One year of eligibility left for him and Hawks, who gets the nod? I also think we see Rath RS and take over 157 the following year. Idk if he can make and maintain 149.

That’s another possibility. I think maybe some familiarity and a reset would do Gabe well wherever that is.

Idk @Fudge Tunnel, we have a couple guys coming in at that weight range. Plus we have 30, maybe 31 on the roster where would he fit and who does he replace? Don’t get me wrong, he’d be more than welcomed in CoMo, but having 3 years left plus incoming recruits, I wouldn’t think Smith goes that route. Maybe he goes and spends a year with J’Den.

My biggest question in all this, is did Bo and family expect for all in involved to live in the Hawkeye family room until they all hit the ground and after? Meaning come train whenever for however long? 1 yrs worth for Bo, 2 for Melvin and 3 for Keegan? It’s not making sense. Outside of Spenser and Desanto who else is making moves on the seniors circuit? Caliendo wrestled recently but not often. Eierman left Mizzou saying the move can help his aspirations to win Olympic medals and he’s not been doing anything of note for how long? Yes could they make the bassetts better, most likely, but I would guess there are clubs, high schools or other rooms in the PA area that probably have high level training partners closer to home. It’s just not making sense. The Iowa room is good, but it’s not top tier compared to others. It would make more sense if he went to Colorado Springs for the year, EAP program or whatever it’s called.

2 state titles and 3 Fargo AAs, I doubt Askren would’ve broke the top 75-100. Without knowing what we do now, I don’t think he would’ve even made the board.

As cool as it is to Mizzou make his top 9 list, I would be super surprised if he picked us.

Mizzou gets Evan Bates in the portal at 197. This is interesting, where does he fit? 197, HWT. I am assuming Sinclair is 184, where and what does this mean for Bates and Hawks?

No idea but he wouldn’t be a bad addition.

Wonder if Zerban follows. Would like to see him at Mizzou, close to home and he spent 3 yrs at CBC in Mo Also.

I must have missed it, did he commit to the Buckeyes?

Yeah Staph my fault. I have fat or phat fingers
