Nope. They have multiple options at 184 they would prefer over Stewart. And after his dad started rumors that they tampered with him last summer then joined the chorus of "they can't develop anyone", Michigan would be extra uninterested.

Are you saying Michigan offered TJ Stewart? No chance.

Has it been confirmed that Hendrickson will continue wrestling? At some point, he owes the Air Force some service.

Virginia Tech. Announced yesterday. There's a short discussion a couple pages back here.

No, KJ is solid at Michigan. It just all stems from politics. She has a perspective and other people have their own perspectives, and in this current climate, of course that means it turns intolerant and nasty - from her and others. Better off just avoiding those topics, especially on Twitter.

Awful

People are allowed to hire whoever they want, but she's not totally wrong though, right? She just probably shouldn't be the one saying it. But congrats Mineo, you sent wrestling twitter after her and now she's being called a b*tch and a c*nt.

What are you, his spokesman? The idea that Rob Koll saved Stanford wrestling is unbelievably insulting to Borrelli et al., who hustled for a year to keep the team together, produce a national champ and raise millions. It was already saved before Koll got there, despite how much he wants to take credit.

His car accident was in late January, I can't imagine he'll get a medical hardship for that year.

He won't but he should return that money. Pretty scummy to pocket that then bounce anyway three months later.

Whatever makes you feel better........

When they're tampering with kids to induce them in the portal, no. When they're getting kids already in the portal, yes. It seems like they're doing both. I also think they, and now Oklahoma State, with their billionaire benefactors have totally skewed the market with the amounts they're throwing around. It's created an untenable situation. Who got it unfair is Michigan, who got a reputation early on for poaching all because Mark Branch whined to Willie about something untrue, and Willie turned around and reported it as fact. But Buchanan didn't end up at Michigan, nor did some unnamed Virginia Tech kid (supposedly Stewart) that some anonymous VT idiot superfan started rumors about last summer nor did Yara Slavakouski, who Mineo accused Michigan of tampering with then deleted the tweet. Every one of those instances was always BS.

The portal window doesn't matter, if his "destination was confirmed prior to him officially entering," that's tampering.

Michigan isn't and hasn't been interested. Some joker VT fans spread rumors last summer that Bormet and KJ were tampering with Stewart "in the stands" at NCAAs, nonsense that was probably started by Stewart's dad to drive up his price.

No

Helping run the Ohio RTC but lives in Oklahoma right?

No

I've spoken to a couple guys who witnessed his dustup with Heindselman at weigh-ins, and it happened literally the opposite as AJ described in this interview. He started it by calling Heindselman a "fat f*ck" and he was the one who wanted to take it to the wrestling mat. So, this guy is either totally delusional or a pathological liar.

Great interview! Bormet is a good guy.

I like Michigan's odds of at least being in the final four. If Bassett is serious about Olympic/world freestyle, which I assume he is, Michigan currently ranks second only to Penn State in that area. Oklahoma State might build that side up quickly, but Iowa has fallen off substantially (outside of Lee) and Ohio State is practically non-existent.

Rude.

Yea, but that's how they got Pritzlaff to leave Michigan. Then over the course of the last nine years, Goodale convinced himself all of Rutgers' success was due to himself and never followed through with his end of the deal.

I believe Cannon is going back to Northwestern.

That rule changed, they have the same deadline as undergraduates now.

* and just put two heavyweights on the U.S. Olympic Team ** and just coached up Lucas Davison to beat him and make the NCAA final
