  1. Henderson at 70 Hidlay at 86 Parris at 125 and then Amine,cruz,gomez,joey silva by way of the nations they rep
  2. he lost to masoumi 11-6 in the fall but the Parr's that wrestled Zillmer was a level I have never seen from him so excited for the rematch I think age + parris improving he gets by geno now and possible rather easily.
  3. https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/12591377-2024-budapest-ranking-series-entry-list most interesting things to me I think we have a wrestle off situation with Uzbekistan with bekzod and zhamolov Yazdani,Amine,Hidlay,Ishiguro at 86 Masoumi,Geno,Parris,Meshvildishvili,Abdellmotileb 125 Haji,Moose,tevanyan,gomez,Jalolov 65 unfortunately haryutunyan is up at 61 but 57 still has Higuchi, Rezzade and aman sheerwat
  4. very true, Im now sure if I am sold on Herrera but Bartelt seems like a stud.
  5. Abakarov seems to be optimal at 61kg, I think he may have won worlds last year had he been there. He beat Vito about 6 weeks before worlds and had the refs not been terrible in the finals against abasghadzi Vito would have essentially dominated that entire field. Harutyunyan and micic are probably my two biggest worries for Spencer although Im not sure how long Stevan can continue to make that weight effectively.
  6. I'd like to see them keep Meza down at 125 I think he could potentially NQ as a true freshman. I'm just not a huge fan of terukina and it does not sound like he works very hard.
  7. I think truly his style is better suited at a heavier weight where guys are not as twitchy and slick. Pace seems to be a bigger factor the heavier you go as well.
  8. Fix was just wrestling in college at a time where 133 probably had 3 of the best guys at the weight ever in RBY,Suriano,Vito.
  9. ill watch after work, what differentiates this from bjj or submission grappling, I have not heard of it.
  10. Pretty exciting times for ISU potentially 3 more years out of paniro and casey if he chooses to red shirt 4 years for tate nakt 3 years of Chittum, and 2 years for echemendia and 3 for both frost brothers. With christian castillo coming in for the class of 2025 as well as Carlos Stanton jr. They just need to fill 197 and heavy.
  11. most instances of guys getting worse I think is simply injury related, shak rasheed and kaid brock come to mind maybe max dean to an extent.
  12. I was looking at Jacob frosts results last year and he lost to Kyler Larkin 10-8 in an open tournament. Larkin is very very good but hes been holding down 61kg so losing to an undersized high schooler who still takes some losses (forrest at boarder brawl 10-6 I believe forrest bumped up it was at like 135) Bassett once and davino twice give me a little pause.
  13. A redshirt would do him well he needs to expand his offense on his feet a bit to go with his pace and improve on the mat a smidge.
  14. Im expecting Frost to be better next year he made crazy jumps from year 1 to 2 I think it is a pretty solidified top 5 to me Crookham,Bailey,Ragusin,Shawver,Frost. Yarbrough exploited nagaos inability to defend leg attacks but overall his season was not very impressive and Orine has kind of been the same guy the last two years. Wells will likely improve a ton as only a true freshman I would probably put them in that 6-8 range with McGonagle,Nagao and throw Hughes in there as well.
  15. I did not see Merrill in at 97 hes my pick.
  16. u20's 57kg: Lilledahl (Would love to see Jax win it but I think running the gauntlet to make the finals and then taking two from Luke seems like a very difficult task) 61kg: Marcus Blaze (ben davino beat him at ironman in ride outs but Blaze has just looked absolutely unreal and I just watched a video of him training with Micic where it looked like he was holding his own. Nasir Bailey is also a huge landmine for these guys but I think this high school talent is just unreal right now) 65kg: Bo (was a bit underwhelmed with lemley at u20's considering the wins he had this folk season I think Valencia makes the finals again but while I think he can win one I don't see him winning two against Bo given hes currently 0-2) 70kg: Antrell Taylor (I don't think we will get to see the future teammate match of Duke vs Kasak. Taylor had a great year up at 165 which was not his natural weight, He made the open and trials finals last year at 74 I think hes going to be absolutely nails down at 70 and 157) 74kg: Cameron steed (I've been high on steed for awhile he got hurt this year and the open was his first comp back. He lost on criteria early to Hanson but stormed back to take third I think with another month to train and having his footing back in competition he wins the entire thing) 79kg: Gabe Arnold (too positionally sound) 86kg: Sinclair 92kg: Mirasola 97kg: Mcdaniel 125kg: Ben Keuter but I think Sahakian could have something to say about it u23's 57kg: Greg D (I was between Poulin, Vince Robinson and greg ultimately going with greg because of his ability to get to legs and his par tear this weight will be fun. 61kg: Anthony noto (I have heard hes even better at free than folk and he made the finals and won in 22 at 57kg but Vito got the spot for taking second at trials) 65kg: Josh saunders (hes really good at freestyle) 70kg: Daniel Cardenas 74kg: Bryce Andonian 79kg: Lenny pinto (his gas tank concerns me sucking what I would assume is a ton of weight but I also don't know how anyone can hand fight with him or get by his hips) 86kg: Brayden thompson ( a bit of a weaker weight here. Brayden has a lot of age level success going up in weight especially 15lbs concerns me a bit but hes similar to Arnold just super positionally sound) 92kg: Christian Carroll (I think Cardenas is the smarter pick since hes medaled but carroll has really impressed as of late up at 97) 97kg: Massoma Endene (Going with the D3 champ) 125kg: Feldman (I should pick greg I just did not think he looked good at trials I know he teched Wyatt but that was after Bradley doubled him off the stage which was about a 5 foot drop onto the floor I can't imagine he was feeling great and I love Feldmans rate of progression)

  18. do you need my social security and pin as well?
  19. Sending 3 guys would be awesome for us however having to deal with 3 russian + the 3 more that rep belarus + the 6 others that will transfer somewhere would be a nightmare.
  20. Yonger, Nate Taylor, toss in Jim mullen and Trumble if he goes heavy.
  21. I think there is a pretty evident correlation between small guys that get bigger later in life and have more success as a result of having the technique and footwork of a smaller guy while holding on to some of that speed, and I believe that is evident not just in wrestling but in other sports. A lot of times heavier guys get away with worse technique because of strength or their opponent being slower and despite getting a bit faster as they lose the size its rarely to the same degree as the guy who has been smaller most of their life. Thinking of the best heavyweights today they were all smaller at one point or another. This is part of the reason I am so high on Dreshaun ross he has a build like Greg but maybe an even larger frame and more explosive at a younger age. I think Christian Carroll may end up being an exception to everything I just said though.
  22. Bryce did won bronze at u20's in 2021 and only lost r1 to the eventual champ from Iran 8-7 so he must be able to translate his style pretty well. He just lets it fly which I think will be a blessing and a curse for him.
  23. I may take whoever wins 61 out of davnino,Blaze,Hughes,Bailey,Larkin over anyone at u23's at 61 as well Bouzakis is probably my pick or maybe nagao although his leg defense was super uninspiring this past season but maybe he is tricky withs chest wraps or crotch lifts.
  24. blaze at 61kg Vega at 61kg (almost beat basset at 65 beat ben davino at super 32 last year Cornell commit) kasak in at 70... 157? kasak vs duke... drake ayala at 61kg nagao at 61kg Anthony noto at 61kg paniro at 70 Cayden Henschel 65 (big content creator d2 wrestles for Wisconsin Parkside seems like a great guy) Erik Gibson at 79 Cardenas at 92 will be a great gauge for Carroll Feldman and greg both at heavy jax;lilledahl;Knox;deluca;Castillo;Seidel (on pace to break the pa all time wins number) all at 57 with kilkeary as well
