    The guys who generally hit it are the guys who wrestle 100+ matches a year since they were youth and didn’t play other sports in school. It’s a lot easier to hang on longer when you were multi sport athletes growing up

    Always an excuse for McKee. Whether it’s the Weight Cut, Injury, Age, I have even heard the excuse that he had finals that week before.

    Clay Carlson and Patrick McKee appear to have HEW as 6th year seniors

    The end is near for AJ. His brothers may need to distance themselves from the old man. This just wreaks the same stink as LaVar Ball. 3 sons, dads huge ego making it about himself because he never met his own goals. Best fit would be Poeta at Illinois, Storniolo at NW and Bono at Wisconsin being they are all Italian. Bono would seem the most desperate

    Not everyone will make this team, period.
  6. Lunaticfringe
    He’s also Italian so a feel good to bring another minority in

    Historically old guys haven’t fared well at Olympic trials. Metcalf and Herbert just plain tanked to end there careers falling off a Cliff

    When a person is near the top of the ladder and continues to get passed up by new post grad talent and drops from 1-3 to 2nd tier. Gilman appears to be in this currently, James Green recently was as well. Alex Pantaleo is another, lost to guys moved up from 61kg he shouldn’t lose to

    Outside of the guys who already have who else would be eligible? Could Spencer Lee compete for France? AJ Ferrari, Austin DeSanto and Nick Suriano for Italy like Realbuto?

    What racial mix is Bartlett? I’ve always been curious is he 1/4 black, Hispanic?

    Thing is everyone is remember his Covid year and redo sophomore years in 2021 and 2022. He got 6th at big tens last year and lost rd of 16 to Dean Peterson last year. I am like most MN fans, we want to see it but it’s doubtful we do again.

    This is the oldest that any McKee has been in college. Mitchell never redshirted and was appearing to have HEW at age 22. Patrick started to show similar at age 22-23 last season and has not wrestled well this year. I would of rather seen him at 133 this season.

    McKee won’t win 5 matches in a row without having a sloppy match. Won’t happen
  14. Lunaticfringe
    Agree 1000%, he will be yet another year 6 guy who is sick of the weight cut and long term effects on his body with the style he wrestles. I wish we had Spratley to be honest as they will have similar NCAA results finishing short of AA status. McKee has struggled on bottom the last year.

    Hopke lost his first high school matches at the MN Xmas tourney to Schunke

    Tom Brands was pinned by Alan Fried at Midlands and Joey Gilbert in the B1G finals
  17. Lunaticfringe
    He got pinned by a Italian guy from Oregon as well
  18. Lunaticfringe
    He was what the 26 seed at NCAAs? He wasn’t even in the lineup half the season. This is probably closer to who he really is than a top 5 guy. He beat over seeded Stevo Poulin, Patrick McKee (who sucks front side), Eric Barnett(similar to McKee, better backside and funky) and Killian Cardinale. Great draw, he’s good against funky guys

    Ricardo Alcala, Matt Powless, Adam Chalfant, Taylor Walsh were all bigger guys who AA’d late in the Goldman era. They always had good 197-285 guys. The problem Indiana has always sucked for the most part in the 141-184 range.

    Just my 2 cents here but IMO Salazar hits the transfer portal after this season. I bet McEnelly is in his league currently. I do think he’s better than Gavin Nelson though, who I think is better than Tabor. I would like to see 184 McEnelly 197 Salazar and Hwt Nelson next year. Otherwise I see Salazar going home to Northern Colorado

    Pritzlaff was at Wisconsin the same time as Mac as an athlete. I doubt they haven’t crossed paths

    Wrestle Kennedy at 184. This obsession with redshirting guys right away is dumb. He can do well now, wrestle him, he can redshirt later if he gets hurt. Guys are proving to do worse with age. Minnesota wrestled 157 pounder Matt Nagle at 184 in 2003, then he dropped to 157 the next year. Matt Pell AA’d at 184, to drop to 165 the next 2 seasons. I think Kennedy can be rd of 12-16 at 184.

    Smith and Bono are both Italian. Smith’s mother is Italian, Bono is an Italian name. Bono would fit in well at Rutgers
  24. Lunaticfringe
    There are not many minority head coaches in D1 right now outside of Bono, John Smith and Kenny Monday in D1 right now. Can’t think of others off the top of my head. Would be a bad thing losing another

    Your best guys take the weights they want. Everyone else fills in, example is Hoffman at Ohio St
