Which they have always sought to upgrade.

The fact that you have to go back 10 years and select a former AA in his sophmore year, R12 his junior year proves that PSU will seek to upgrade those spots not performing. The exception always prove the rule.

Few and far between. This new era with the NIL really ramping up and the transfer portal being so accessible I highly doubt that PSU would not be looking to upgrade a spot like that.

Here is a question to ponder… Does PSU keep guys in their lineup for multiple years that go 1-2 at NCAA’s?

And very high VO2max

Swenson is fun to watch. He does not back down from anyone.

TBD on if Swenson or Alek Martin are wrestling this year. Both sustained knee injuries. We will see.

I’m not sure why people are acting like it’s very surprising that guys at Iowa that are getting recruited over late in their careers or are buried in the depth chart behind young studs are rumored to be leaving. They probably want to go somewhere that they have a chance to start. Makes sense to me.

@Husker_Du reporting Teemer to Iowa as a done deal.

Jamison looked big at 141 and I believe his father has stated that it was a very tough cut for him. With Williams moving on, I would think he slots nicely into 149. I think Cael Hughes wins the spot over Carter Young at 141 if Hughes cannot make 133. If the rumors of Hughes partaking in some of the same extracurricular activities as Williams are true, then perhaps that had a factor in Hughes missing weight at WTT.

Oh, wow. Did not see that. Thank you!

JO as in Jordan Oliver?

Anyone know if Nolf will be done competing after his move to TX? If he is still competing, he could be in the mix at 79kg also.

I would guess that Marstellar and Dierringer will be the biggest tests domestically. Would be interesting to see Starocci, KOT and Carr in the field. I would think that Carr will want to make a freestyle career at 74kg though.

I have to assume that CowboyYe2024 referred to RBY as the villain from the standpoint of being a cowboy fan. Fix couldn't beat RBY and therefore was the villain.

He seemed "butt-hurt" because Downey got hosed in his match not because his friends lost their matches.

Where does Nickal make any claims about Nolf and Kerk getting hosed?

Wasn't his comment specifically about Pat Downey getting robbed? I did not see anything related to his former PSU teammates.

Points 1 through 8 are all valid and do point to NLWC going through a significant change and possibly less horsepower than they had this time last year. That being said, HWC is still a long ways behind NLWC.

While I would typically agree, I do not believe this is the case. Pat Downey and Bo Nickal friends???

Obviously this is a great get for Cowboy RTC. Any time you can get an Olympian and mutli time national champion, that is great. RBY has just wrestled a handful of senior level matches in freestyle. I am going to withhold judgement of acting like his freestyle career is a colossal failure for a bit.

I don't see a bunch of people on this thread "hating" on Jordan Williams. I personally hope that he gets things figured out and has success elsewhere (i.e. Chance Marsteller). It is unfortunate that his family situation is difficult. I can wish him well on his future endeavors and hope that he changes his lifestyle while still understanding why OK State needed to cut ties with him and move on to ensure they set up a culture in line with the coaching staffs values and principles. This was not Williams first mistake so it is understandable what Taylor and Co. did in my opinion.

If I got multiple DUI’s at my job I would get canned.
