Mullen looks kinda like the guy that played Max Baer in Cinderella Man

I also think it will be Mullen. Catka lost a year earlier in his career when they brought in the ponytailed guy from Stanford.

Will Jamison then challenge Carter Young for 149?

oh no. Im afraid to ask what happened. I will just say that whatever it is doesn't sound good

wow that s a much better deal than it was in the past. is this only temporary?

I think your side of the story is far more likely. His pen just happened to keep running out of ink, is that correct? @jajensen09

I was tempted to bet that Stemmet will not give up bonus. It's not like AJ is an offensive savant. He's extremely conservative on his feet.

Adam Busiello down to 149 for Northern Colorado and penciled in as the starter

@Idaho, do you think Ethan Stiles will beat out Hamblin for the 157 spot?

Tickets should be coming out to the public soon. I'm pretty hyped. There is a very small chance I could end up being a guest in a box, although it is unlikely.

Just noticing that Campbell 125 lber Anthony Molton has been through this sort of thing before in his college wrestling career. His first two schools were Old Dominion and Fresno State.

With the rise of drinks like White Claw and High Noon, he just needs a starting spot somewhere so he can lock in that obvious NIL deal

So what happens to Gilcher? Either he starves back to 157 (unlikely based on what I've heard) or bumps up to 174 where they already have a formidable Rogotzke?

sounds like Lehigh doesn't use these wrestle-offs to determine starting spots any longer (if they ever did) and use it as more of an exhibition - per @gimpeltf

Purdue wrestle-offs will be shown on BTN+ tonight at 7PM eastern

The only particular issue I'm aware of is the one where he refused to let Burwick go to Nebraska (and its not like Burwick was a huge difference maker, which made it seem more about pettiness instead of looking out for the interest of his team). He doesn't get along with AWA people so that hurts the program, but that doesn't mean he's a bad guy. Lots of good people may not get along with each other. But it seems like he has been bad for the program! I dont have any personal details or anything like that.

Braxton Amos is also going to do a redshirt this year according to Bono. That would mean that Wisconsin would be expected to be the worst dual team and tournament team in the Big Ten with zero expected national qualifiers.

Bono mentions Joe Zargo will be on redshirt this year after doing double hip surgery over the summer

After redshirting last year for Northwestern, Frankie Tal-Shahar is now listed as being on medical RS for 2025 - giving him two consecutive lost seasons. Separately, his brother Mikey has departed Wisconsin.

I dont have any inside scoops - I just caught it on Wrestlestat and have seen projections from other knowledgable types on the matter that - whether Nagao is on Med RS or not - Davis is the expected starter. And I'm totally with you on Byrd. Love his style

Guys who are moving from 125 to 133 for this year: Drake Ayala Anthony Noto Luke Stanich (will be on RS) Braeden Davis Brett Ungar Jack Maida Ethan Berginc Tristan Lujan Sean Spidle Ryan Miller Markel Baker Drew Heethius Separately, the following guys dropping down to 133 from 141: Cleveland Belton Jordan Decatur Lucas Byrd returning from medical redshirt. Connor McGonagle enters the field off the bench from Lehigh. Vito, Fix, Teske Colaiocco exhaust eligibility, Nagao enters a medical redshirt, while Latona and Basile bump to 141. Sorry for the tangent, but 133 got turned on its head this offseason.

according to coach: 125: Peterson 133: Shawver: 141: three way dog fight between Olivieri, Hermes, and Fongaro 149: Clark vs Cetta 157: Connor Harer probably 165: someone needs to step up and grab this spot 174: Turley 184: Soldano or Cartaegena Walsh 197: Poz 285: Yara he mentioned some of their wrestle-off/indicator matches have been flipping back and forth in terms of results

I hate to be a downer, but with what's happening at Campbell, after the recent NCAA changes, for me, there is a concern of program retention for many of the smaller schools. Here's to hoping we can minimize those losses if they are coming.
