With Trumble beating Feldman he should not have another matchup against a top 10 guy until NCAAs. It appears Yonger should lock up the 1 with his number of quality wins assuming he beats Feldman & Taylor next Sunday. This would have the big ten champ & runnerup (Feldman & Ferrari) as 3 & 4 seeds, right? This bracket should split up rather well unless Nathan Taylor is undefeated and gets the 3 with a conference championship and quality wins. Any fault in my predictions or what do you guys see?
Iowa had not done very well recruiting the past few years so it makes sense why they would have plenty of funds for new recruits. Look how many seniors there will be off scholarship next year. Dean, Drake, Caliendo, PK, Endene. I would guess all of those guys are getting nearly full scholarships.
Nebraska's next time out is National Duals so I got to thinking about what matchups would be fun & I landed on OK State vs Ohio State or Minnesota. Any others you can think of?

I've heard good things about Hockaday but he's not cleared to wrestle yet. I expected more out of this 2026 class but then again I'm not sure about the $$$ left or that will be freed up after Hardy, Allred, & Lamer.
I saw Fellers committed, should be a good room/developmental guy.
Thanks a ton for your insight. I do not follow high school near as much as others so it's great to gain perspective. I'll be excited to follow those guys this Fall
Interesting with Minto, wasn't sure if it was a long developmental TD or late, quick strike.
im curious if LJ was using tilts, legs, or what he used to score nearfall
Nebraska has guys at potentially 141, 157, 285. Would anyone else have more options than that? Iowa with 184 & 125 & 141 only.
OK State 125, 149?, 184?
Iowa State 149 if its wrestled at Big 12s & 285.
Ohio State 133, 141, & 285
Van Dee got cement mixered when up 9-2.
Kael beat a guy who best Koehler.
Hardy gave up a lot of takedowns which is concerning imo.
Nikade is young but Lamer looked good, will be nice to have him in.
Antrell seemed like Antrell.
LJ.
Minto is never out of a close match.
Duvall took Allred down again like he did in R1 at NCAAs.
McDanel didn't make a jump.
Andrews- that's why AJ got brought in
