  1. His brother is Joey blaze Purdues 157.
  2. Asher sorry not Hayden but hayden grey shirted so asher may as well completely forgot about ryder.
  3. 125: Lilledahl 133: Davis 141: Blaze/Perry 149: SVN 157: Duke/Kasak/Facundo 165: MM 174: Haines 184: Barr/Cunningham 197: Mirasola 285: Mirasola/Transfer every person in that lineup besides Haines would have one more year of eligibility at least for the following season. Next team race maybe 2030.
  4. great for his development, unfortunate for any college wrestling fan that's not a PSU fan.
  5. I did not feel like Cael was giving maximum effort in those it seemed like every time he turned it on Mitch was on his back. Cael probably has 40lbs on him though. Cael was top 5 in 2011 DT is still top 3 at a very tough weight so I think DT by however he wants at this point but prime vs prime I have no clue.
  6. what's shocking is he's still only 24 so 2 years younger than Daton was when he graduated. Also means he could potentially have two more olympic cycles left in him.
  7. Really hoping for Ohio state, I just want a team race again. PSU getting Duke + blaze would probably be a wrap for another 4 years.
  8. Not what I expected to see when I opened x also not entirely sure how in the world, he has eligibility but I'm here for it.
  9. 125: McCrone maj Cruz 4-0 0SU 133: Davino dec Ayala 7-0 OSU 141: Mendez maj. Block- 11-0 OSU 149: Parco dec D'Emilio 11-3 OSU 157: Teemer dec Gallagher 11-6 OSU 165: Caliendo dec Sasso 11-9 OSU 174: Kharchla dec Brands 14-9 OSU 184: Arnold dec Welsh 14-12 OSU 197: Buchanon dec Geog 15-14 Iowa Hvy: Feldman dec Kueter 18-14 OSU I'm not sure sammy being back matters a ton in the dual certainly in March. I think Peterson goes at 125 but until we see him hard to know for sure. Even if Davino does not start I could see them using him for this dual given he gets 5 dates. Kharchla over Brands feels like a true toss up to me Nelson has not looked great but I expect him to at least get marginally better as the season goes on and its hard to tell where Kharchla is at. I gave Arnold the edge over Welsh because I think he had his number in high school and I dont expect either guys to open up against one and other.
  10. Braeden Scoles another Askren product at 165.
  11. Give us 141 first and 184 last probably my two favorite matchups and it guarantees viewership throughout. edit: 149 has a ton of intrigue too how does SVN look after a year off and did Watters make a jump to title contention?
  12. Bama has a WR that reclassified so that he could enroll a year early and im not sure if he still is but he played most of the season as a 17-year-old. I personally think for PJ,Jax,Bassett,Blaze,Lockett get nothing out of another year of high school aside from being a kid which is completely valid and I think enjoying that trumps making money sooner. All of them are ready to AA right now and worst-case scenario you spend a year on red shirt but get to spend it acclimating to campus life and in a college room full time.
  13. PJ duke expressed that he will stay 70kg and wants to make the world team next year. Assuming both Green and pantaleo wrestle at trials I think PJ will be the 3 seed. At this point in their careers I think it is safe to assume that Green and Pantaleo are no longer getting better at least from a physical standpoint where as PJ is probably making the most strides he will make in the next year or two. The same can be said for Marcus Blaze who I assume will also be the 2 or 3 seed for world team trials if he goes 61kg. Forrest also took 4th at trials albeit from a Desanto default so hes probably worth noting. I would probably not predict either guy to make the team next year at least no right now although I give PJ better odds simply because he does not have to beat Vito. A lot has been made about our lack of success this year but I think when you look at the possibility of putting two 18 year olds on our team and having confidence that they could go medal it paints a better picture of what the next decade of United States wrestling could look like.
  14. I am sort of hoping with it being Beards last year they roll out Brignola and stanich and just see where the chips fall.
  15. Brignola looks awesome this year.. podium contender?
  16. I know its early, but I am very much out on Iowa. Block is not at the level I thought he would be (could be partially a weight thing). Drake will probably get his legs at 133 and Knox is good, but that loss pushes any title aspirations I thought he may have out the window for me, and Nelson could go on another 1 score run at NCAA's, but I think Levi would major him. On top of that as of now I think they are a mess at 125 and Keuter does not seem to have made that jump I was anticipating but also not a large enough sample to make most of the assumptions I just did.
  17. I'm starting to worry that this head stuff may end his career it seems like he can't go a tournament without something CKLV, I heard it was an issue at NCAA's and something had to be off at OTT's. Really hope he figures it out because I truly think the sky is the limit for him but he just cant stay healthy.
  18. Camacho lost to Babin 1-0, Babin lost the round prior to Seymour of Lehigh 7-2. Shaprio Vs Arrington coming up in a bit
  19. he just beat Diego Sotelo 15-9 it was 14-3 with about 55 seconds left he gave up a reversal and got turned.
  20. Vincent Robinson beat max Gallagher 17-5 he had a razor thin loss to Camacho in the wrestle off but hes only a red shirt frosh nc state seems to have a great one. Hes probably most known for the Russian snap he his a folk nats 2 years ago up like 3 weight classes from what he wrestled in season.
  21. Pj just counter wrestled Andonian into oblivion the metzger and sprawl go behind off Andonians high c are hard for me to compute.
  22. 125: Volk 133: Frost (he got teched last year by Bailey so this is probably a very dumb pick) 141: Mendez (two takedowns to zero) 149: Watters (I think It takes SVN the first semester to get back to where he was at NCAA's and to start last year) 157: Kasak 165: Hall 174: Levi 184: PK (I think he finds a way to finish) 197: Little by major 285: Feldman by major
  23. Kinda crazy that Forrest and Duke are both in high school and probably are the on-paper favorites to win the tournament. It is definitely not a strong field from what I have seen though I'll be interested to see what the international entries look like.
  24. Just basing it on the teams entered, last year most teams brought their starters but without knowing who's going I was just speculating on potential matchups.
  25. Penn state sent most of their lineup last year I would expect everyone that's not in the all-star which unfortunately is like half their lineup. potential matchups I'm excited for off the top of my head: Spratley vs Lilledahl - I know we've seen it before in freestyle, but I am on board with the people expecting a big jump from Spratley this year and folkstyle obviously changes things a bit as well. Shapiro Vs Kasak - honestly my pick potentially for the finals at NCAA's I think Kasak could have a bit more variance but I really expect Shapiro to dominate this year. Richie figs Vs lilledahl or spratley or both!! - Not much needs to be said I think figs could present Lilledahl the most interesting matchup on his feet they both like to operate from space to an extent and figs is very hard to takedown clean because he wrestles the edge so well. Lucas Byrd vs Noto vs Davis - Should allow us to see how Davis looks moving up my only worry is that last year he would hit that double and pull shots in on guys and I'm curious if he has issues doing that up at 133 and if it will take time for him to adjust. Crookham vs the field - he should hit one or two good guys I expect him to control this weight this year but this well tell us if film and adapting to his style occurs this year. Matty singleton vs Hamiti - I think if Hamiti puts it on singleton watch out this year but I also expect big things from singleton this season so really looking forward to this potentially.
