  1. ehh, Tom Ryan's not going anywhere, especially when he takes my advice and hires a social media manager to ramp up his Tiktok and Insta! On a separate note, I'm pretty high on Ben Davino. If they can develop him properly, he's gonna be a good one!
  2. Maybe Steve Neal (I just deleted an AJ Ferrari jab I wrote in here). I think Steve started in high school- he placed 4th in CA state tournament as a senior. If we're not limiting to Americans, then some pretty household names on the Russian side of the globe started pretty late, most notably: Ivan Yarygin (18 yrs old) and Alexander Karelin (14 yrs old). Somebody also told me that Aslanbek Khushtov started wrestling when he was 19, which translates since he didn't start winning stuff until he was 28-30 yrs old. However, I haven't had the time or gumption to verify it- too busy posting on this site! haha!
  3. Oh, there's a bunch of dudes who are/were great wrestlers that never won NCAAs. Here's a few that come to mind: James Green (7,7,3,3) Thomas Gilman (2,3) Townsend Saunders (2,3) *NOTE* Did win an NCAA DIV II title so not sure if he can go on this list. What the hell, let's give it to him! Ken Chertow (3,3) - I'm sorta on the fence with him Russ Hellickson - I don't remember him doing much in college. Decent freestyle career - got picked on by the Russians but who didn't! @fishbane already mentioned Bobby Weaver and I'm 100% on board with that. I remember he lost to Gene Mills in college once but no shame in that
