  1. Davis has a redshirt remaining but I would let him wrestle and run Nagao out of town personally. He honestly was better at Minnesota. SVN is being remembered for his NCAA finish but he was seeded #12 I believe and lost a lot of matches. Facundo is going to have to do it elsewhere kind of like Michael Beard. He just isn’t that guy
  2. That is what I heard as well, even still listed at 157. Here would be my projections 125-Tanner Jordan Super Sr 133-Derrick Cardinal Jr 141-Alek Martin Jr(couldn’t beat Carlson, better weight for him maybe) Another option is True Fr Logan Swenson if Martin is hurt 149-Cade Siebrecht So 157-Cobe Siebrecht Sr 165-Cael Swenson Jr (IF Swenson is out they NEED to go get Patrick Kennedy) 174-Cade DeVos Super Sr 184-Bennett Berge So 197-Zach Glazier Super Sr(Quin Morgan redshirt, could be very good) Hwt-Luke Rasmussen So
  3. How often in the world when a statement is made right away does it turn out to be BS? If our government made a statement like this, the same people believing this would be saying conspiracy theory.
  4. I looked at the recruiting class they have coming in. It looks like a D3 recruiting class when looking at accolades. I know for 100% sure St Cloud St and Augsburg have better guys coming in. Guys have left in the portal in mass quantity. Huge cause for concern.
  5. Boise St had an amazing program at times. They had so many unseeded guys AA, in the 2000-2010 range they had some really tough a5letes. Greg Randall was a great coach and recruiter.
  6. I don’t know if I see a crazy amount of upside. I do think he has room to grow but pretty sure he’s been in the PINnacle room forever and is in a very good STMA room as well. He’s not a guy like Brett Pfarr who was in the small school classification who played multiple other sports; didn’t have the extra coaching or partners in high school.
  7. Honestly at this point SDSU is in the same tier as Minnesota, Northern Iowa, Missouri, Lehigh, Rutgers, NCST(great dual team but never do well at NCAAs)
  8. She can always be Pro amateur wrestling, Kurt Angle and Chas Betts still are. She has a lot better chance to make $1 million or more the next few years in fake wrestling than real wrestling. She’s aging into her 30s now, not everyone eats, breathes and thinks about wrestling all the time.
  9. Imagine going to your day job and being told, if you are the top person in the world you get 500k this year, if you are 2nd in the world you get 250k this year and if you are 3rd you get 100k. If you are 4th or worse you get enough pay to live in an apartment or rent a room and eat ok. That’s essentially what being an international wrestler is. In this game she has way less pressure, just to perform. She gets paid the same whether she wins or loses. Not really any different than being a figure skater
  10. Jayson Ness went 5,2,3,1 and sadly does not meet the criteria. Similar to Mark Ironside who just misses it. Ness lost to Hazewinkle in the semis and then lost to Escobedo in consi Semi(he never seemed to figure Angel out) and pinned Obe Blanc for 5th. Those pin points were big in the Gophers 3rd title in 7 years.
  11. Coleman Scott has been a proven solid head coach and OkSt did improve last year with him there. Probably the best hire. Molinaro is a good hire as well being from Jersey and Italian, it is probably the right hire demographically.
  12. How? Kyle Snyder moved up to Heavyweight. He didn’t bring a portal guy in
  13. Kolat was not too different as an assistant. He was at Lock Haven, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Lehigh and UNC before going to Campbell. He really never should have left because recruiting will be nearly impossible at a service academy. He had Ryder Rogotzke committed only to bail to Ohio St. His results are not any better than the previous coaches since taking over.
  14. I have always put Kolat in the Sammie Henson category. Great technical coach, really good assistant but probably a micromanager as a head coach. He tends to piss a lot of people off as well. Just like Henson, he seemed to wait forever for his first head job at a not so good school.
  15. Ferraris dad uses Just for Men
  16. Has Kueter gotten bigger? He needs to gain some mass.
  17. Good example of this was Jacob Lininger about 20 years ago. He was a ncaa qualifier at Hwt for Pitt, he was probably about 30-10, he transfers to 2x defending champs Minnesota and drops to 197 to enter the lineup and replace Owen Elzen after 3rd and 4th place finishes the past 2 years. He was not wrestling well at all, maybe .500 at midseason when Damion Hahn moved up to win his first of 2 titles in a row. I really thought he would get good in the gophers room.
  18. Actually he has to be right up there. This list is 5 years old and we have lost some old timers recently in Tom Borelli, John Smith, Greg Williams, Jim Heffernan, Jim and Lennie Zalesky. Steve Martin. I’m not sure any current head coach is as old as Barry Davis. https://www.trackwrestling.com/PortalPost.jsp?postId=1728706132
  19. I think Salazar will do great at ASU.
  20. Not sure if I can see Davis doing well in this position. After being a head coach for 25 years, it’s gotta be tough taking the back seat. Plus I can’t see him getting on the mat anymore like most assistants do.
  21. I 100% agree, for all the years he was in the lineup, he was a 10-15 ranked guy whether he was at 174 or 184. He wrestled well at NCAAs to AA but who did he best? He beat Peyton Mocco, Edmond Ruth, Alex Faison, Ethan Smith and a sucked down HEW Dustin Plott after 3 days of weigh ins to place 5th. Not one time in his 7 matches did he break one open, the most points he scored was 6 in a match. Now if he was beating these guys 14-5 with multiple takedowns I could see the arguments for him. He just as easily can go 0-2 BBQ with these point totals. Gabe Arnold will dictation who goes where but I think Kennedy beats Brands out for 174, he has way more potential to put points up
  22. Dake is done after this cycle, he will be 37 at next OTT.
  23. Sam Latona not Italian? That’s like a mobster name
