    Graduating at 19 is not common. Sorry.

    In 5 years the Brands bothers will be 59. It would probably be about time for them to retire at that point. Are there many 60 year old wrestling coaches?

    Mizzou is trending up. A very good tournament for the Tigers, who will return 5 AA's and a National Champ next season. The tournament will be held in Missouri, which is sure to be a boost for the Tigers.

    Sorry, I see you were replying to the transfer question.

    Sammie Henson was a 3X state champ from Missouri. He took 4th in the Olympic Trials (Greco) as a senior in high school.

    Been a second. But in the 80's and 90's, it was not uncommon for someone to be 17 when they graduated high school. To your point, it's not the case today, but the feeling at the time, when you had to wrestling someone older than the age of 23, was that the 23+ person was had an advantage. Again, that was then. There was no medical redshirt that I can remember., no Olympic redshirt, no Covid year, almost no gray-shirting and mostly 18 year old freshmen.

    Bizarre. At some point it's time to move on with life. For the record this was the NCAA's original intent when allowing a "Redshirt" season: Rationale. Student athletes just out of high school may not be ready for the academic and athletic demands at the university level. Redshirting provides the opportunity, with tutoring, to take classes for an academic year and become accustomed to the academic and physical rigors of university athletics.
