Is there a link to the true 3rd matches? I’m curious to see who Andonian wrestles to see if he makes the national team

On another note, somebody posted on the VT board that TJ Stewart had to be driven in a golf cart to his classes by a coach last year because he wouldn’t go otherwise It was also mentioned his grades are so bad, he probably can’t wrestle until the second semester, at presumably NC State.

VT 141 Tampa Tom Crook. NQ as a true freshman then shirted. Had some FS success and interested to see if he can hold 141 all year

Man, I’m a big Hip fan. I don’t blame or fault him for trying to better himself but don’t see that happening at OU.

What happened to Stewart? He’s been in the portal for a long time with zero announcements.

I’m not tracking too close on commits flipping but this is at least two. Losing James hurt big time, Torres not so much.

Losing Torres sucks, especially to Iowa. He lost to Weader recently so maybe he was concerned he wouldn’t likely start at VT

Agreed on TJ at 197. His dad blamed his knee, training partners, ill family member etc for last season’s performance or lack thereof. Weight management was the likely the main problem which he struggled with his freshman year but got hot at the right time and AA’d.

Tampa Tom has a bright future. I’ve only seen Wright wrestle at the SE Open. He cut to 165. He wrestles hard and with a chip on his shoulder but needs to improve technique wise. We will see if he jumps levels year with a full year of D1 experience under his belt. He had the frame to add mass to be a full sized 174

That’ll be a good roster battle between Desiante and Wright. I’d say it will be up for grabs until the January unless there’s a weight change for either guy

Wonder what weight the UTC dude slots, 174 or 184? Hopefully VT snags a full sized 184 before next season with Stewart’s departure. I’m hearing VT has zero interest in wanting him back if the portal doesn’t pan out.

The VT board has a poster implying it might be Iowa State.

I think wrestlestat had Hip penciled in at 165 for next season’s very early rankings fwiw. Hate to see him go though. His ceiling is so high

A pack fan who posts occasionally on the VT board said TJ to nc state is a real possibility. Also said Fish could end up at VT but there is no guarantee either go where rumored. He also some other big names are being thrown around of possible transfers too but no hints just yet.

That’s interesting. I don’t blame his dad for trying to secure what he can for his sons but man, he seems to be hurting them with his toxic behavior.
