1 - McEnelly, Ferrari 2 - Ryder, Sinclair, Welsh, Allred, Smith 3 - Brenot, Fishback, Mantanona, Thompson 4 - Ayzerov, Cartegena-Walsh, Dean, Goin, Soldano? I never really thought of tier separation like you outlined. I tend to go with more who I think has comparable resumes & ceilings. 1- Max & Ferrari have very similar resumes when it comes to similar opponents. (Plott & Carter) 2- Silas has the best win of anyone in this group (Max Dean), but he has lost to Smith & Plott & Max. Smith was 2-0 vs Silas last year but still steps below tier 1 imo. Ryder doesn't have much of a college folk style resume so projecting. Sinclair's got a win over Salazar who I think would fall into this tier as well. He also lost to Andy Snith last year. Welsh made the national finals as a true freshman but without marque wins so having him higher would be projecting imo. No disagreements below this.

Would you do a large tier 2 or separate them? Personally I'd bump Ferrari to 1 and then combine 2&3. I could see all of those guys taking losses from each other.

Curious as to why tier 2 doesn't just include Allred. & Smith who are returning AAs. Have Ryder & Sinclair done anything to show they belong a tier ahead before wrestling significant matches at 184? I get Ferrari as he has a common opponent over Silas, but not really Welsh who split with Ruth at 174, who Silas did the same with. I think Smith beat him last year.

Speaking of quality backups can we see them transfer at semester? Personally I'd love to see Blake Cushing (141) transfer to UNK and have success

Koehler & Ayoub are most likely qualifier level at Nebraska as backups at 125/133

Borge & Paul Kenny have been training at Nebraska since last Thursday for whatever that is worth

Looks like Ragusin & Romney are up as well.

Downey said on a podcast he planned to bump up after this year. Things may have changed but 165 doesn't seem as deep at 157

Thanks, that's insightful. I wish we had access to more content like that as fans

Any insight into who attended?

Downey said in a podcast he most likely won't be at 157 next year

Who would Nebraska hire to backfill for Snyder?
