Ludington is that option

They literally have a statue outside the arena with Dan Gable holding up the stall call. They are insufferable.

This is who Iowa could pluck from currently ranked 197s. You can add Connor Mirasola and Rocky Elam if you consider the redshirts who could have reasons to move like lineup issues or money. Literally everyone thinks AJ Ferrari is the most likely.

Is there a club the St. Ed's kids go to? They had a streak of NCAA All Americans from like 1982 through like 2019. I do not know if the streak ended. I think it did. Can we point their success back to someone? Caveat, I think they get a lot of move ins but I don't really know. I never lived around there.

Are you just saying that, or you've heard something?

It's an interesting point made about Sealey having been demoralized in the room. PSU has more depth than ever. But I would guess that he does well this summer in freestyle and it's just freshman looking like freshman. It basically happens to them all. Also, Sealey is going to have less than 4 years in the starting lineup. When he committed, it made sense. A lot has changed since 2022. He committed like early on in his process. Messenbrink wasn't a thought. Kasak wasn't supposed to be this big. I'm probably forgetting something.

Where are these quotes from?

Why are you putting "losing" in quotations?

Sealey straight up missing a year no matter what if he stays. PJ Duke or Messenbrink will need to go 174 or else PJ Duke is missing a year. Cunningham in same boat as PJ Duke. I understand why you just take in all the best guys. I do not understand why wrestlers would stay and lose eligibility. Especially for a guy like PJ Duke or Connor Mirasola.

I think a rash guard and shorter shorts would be great

How long has this guy been giving to the program?

Honestly Bo narrowed it down to these schools because he legit fits into the lineups. I'm not sure if long term his brother fits in at Penn State.

That matches up if he is at a new school in a few days. Otherwise this has nothing to do with this season, although his feelings might be hurt that the coaches might've told him he would be heavyweight next year and now they are going back on that.

I hope he finds a place to wrestle this season. Maybe he needs to be quick drive away from his parents. Anyone see any reasons for why he gave up on Iowa State?

You missed Indiana.

If Teemer is back, Buckeyes are gonna have a hard time winning. Kharchla over Patrick Kennedy does not seem likely to me either, but if the Buckeyes win at 157 and 174, then I think think the Buckeyes will win.

Thanks for sharing those dates. They seem accurate. But Hamiti was in Stillwater the day after NCAAs. All of these guys visited OK St before anyone knew about Taylor going there. It just feels like all these transfers mind's were made up ahead of Taylor getting there. You can go ahead and restate those dates as an excuse to make your point about Taylor/OSU/Transfers, but I think we all know how it actually went down.

So is Kaleb Larkin at ASU or not? Is he practicing with the team or the RTC?

I was very high on him going into the season for the same reasons. He had a very tough schedule to start the season, but his loss to NDSU is a head scratcher that I will chalk up to being "freshman moment." I think he will come around by the end of the year and at least make R12. I thought he was a top 6 type guy before the season started.

Wrestlestat has Bouzakis over Byrd

What is Hawkeye report saying about Ferrari taking the mat and Arnold forfeiting?

It's sad that Midlands fell off and will never be the prestigious tournament it once was. Northwestern's administration "canceled out of an abundance of caution" only 1 week before it was set to start. The array of tough teams that once showed up will never return. "The tradition of the Midlands is a major part of the wrestling community, however ensuring the health and safety of all participants, coaches, staff members, and fans is our top priority"

Buchanan should have been hit for stalling. I was excited about the new criteria for stalling on top, but it didn't do anything.

Has this ever occurred in freestyle? Probably have to go back to before WWII or something. I recall Jake Dietchler in 2008 for Greco. I am not aware of anyone in Freestyle.

Gotta assume neck issues. Neck problems are no joke. They can dramatically hurt your quality of life.
