Ungar did well but went 5-2 and didn't place. Ungar lost to Caleb Smith (NQ this year from Appalachian?) 7-3, and Greg beat Smith 10-0. Greg also beat Ventresca last year at the Scuffle.

nhs67 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 48 minutes ago, nhs67 said: Most likely, not including any incoming transfers and assuming that incoming frosh redshirt... 125 - McHenry - If he can stay healthy, he could win a match or two at nationals, but I believe that is peak performance McHenry 133 - Ragusin - I think he can beat anyone at the weight not named Arujau next year. His all-out approach can leave him exposed against guys he should not lose to. 141 - Nolan - Mattin is likely gone. He has med school to go to. Nolan is the next man up and the clear next option. 149 - Lamer - He still has a lot to do for his bottom game, but if he can add on some more size and strength and he will be able to go toe-to-toe with anyone neutral. 157 - Lewan - He can beat anyone in the field or lose to anyone in the field... in OT. 165 - Amine - I don't think he will ever be able to hang with O'Toole. It is just a horrible matchup for him 174 - Walker - I don't think Maylor is back, although he does have eligibility left. I do think Walker has a higher ceiling. 184 - Rogers/Bullock - I think Rogers does end up going 184 as he is the plan for the future. Bullock is a gamer, though - when healthy. 197 - Rogers/Bullock - See above. I think Bullock is the most likely option, providing no transfers or a true frosh doesn't blow our socks out of the water. 285 - Jenkins - He is a tweener, truly. He was all of 225lbs and needs a solid 20-30lbs to compete, so he will take his lumps. He moves like a 157lber, though, and if he can have an additional 10-15lbs on him prior to 'his time' then he will be golden... if he keeps that speed. There are several rumors of incoming transfers as well as true frosh coming in. I have also added some notes above. I think UofM is clearly in the running for at least two high profile transfers. There are four big names out there right now as well as a fifth that was thrown around quite a bit. Shane Griffith, Stanford, 165/174 - I think Michigan stands a fair chance to land him, as they were on the short list last time. Indo think he goes 174 if he comes in, although any combination of him and Amine at 165/174 should work just fine. Bernie Truax, Cal Poly, 184/197 - I don't think there is a whole lot of traction for him to UofM, however he is an Engineering student so UofM might just be in for consideration. I think Truax heads to Penn State and goes 184. Yaraslau Slavikousji, Harvard, 285 - I think he gives Jenkins that extra year to grow to the 245-255lber he needs to be. Unfortunately he isn't on the same tier as Kerk, Cass, Hendrickson, Davison, or Schultzy so that is 6th at best. He might drop some matches too to gents of the same tier. Still a guy that wins much more than he loses. Seth Nevills, Penn State, 285 - I think this guy is headed to South Dakota State (gut feeling). He would be right there on the same level as Slavikouski, though (my opinion). Jake Woodley, Oklahoma, 197 - He had some transcript problems that made it so he could not compete. He did take his alpha and certify, so I am not sure what that does for eligibility. If he gets it granted somehow, he should slide in nicely at 197 while Walters gets his redshirt in. Incoming Frosh... Michigan has a slew of incoming frosh that could make an immediate impact or step in, in the case of potential injuries. Caden Horwath, 125/133 - He could very well beat out McHenry straight away at 125 or allow Ragusin to head up to 141 and take over 133 straight away. He doesn't need to add strength and looks overall to be a better, more explosive version if when Drew Mattin first hit the scene. Sergio Lemley, 141 - He could beat out Nolan straight away. He is pretty damn good, too. Dylan Gilcher, 149/157 - He is good enough right now where maybe Lamer makes the drop to 141 and he mans the 149lb spot. Beau Mantanona, 157 - I imagine he redshirts in any scenario. He is larger and more explosive than Lewan, so I expect him to settle in at 165 after Amine is gone. Hayden Walters, 197 - The heir apparent to 197. Michigan is hoping he will give them four good years, but I do think a redshirt will help him with that. "I know actually nothing.

If he started bulking today you would only see him around 230 max by season time and that would be 30+ pounds less than guys like Kerk / Cass / Wyatt.

Joles undecided. Blockhus and Lee would fill it, yes, but a lot fans are eager to see some fresh faces. There’s a lot of talent waiting in the wings at 141-157. The plan dating back to when Sparks committed was for him to go 174. I’m surprised it’s taken this long.
