alex1fly Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Lot of back and forth on if Wittlake is done. He shows up in some preseason rankings but I'm skeptical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex1fly Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I have a hard time seeing a freshman Thompson beating a 2x All American and freestyle national champ in Plott. I do hope Thompson is a stud though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offthemat Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 No Wittlake. https://okstate.com/sports/wrestling/roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Moran Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Whitlake not on roster. Also Haas is listed at 197. I always thought Haas was too big for 184 (and roster tends to list guys at lower weights than they may go). Stika (who wrestled some last few years at 184/197 (and who was not bad) is also not on roster. So unless Whitlake pulls a Gfeller and has second thought and joins team, I think 174 and 184 are down to Plott and Thompson as OSU doesn't have much else at those weights. Intermat has Plott at 184 in rankings, but Lewis staying at 174. When I saw them wrestle, Lewis looked much bigger than Plott (who looked average size for 174) Given in US Open Plott went at 79 kg (174) while Thompson went at 86 (189) I think Plott goes 174 and Thompson goes 189. Mirzo is listed at 157. So I think wrestle off between Mirzo, Harper and Manibog determines who starts at 157. (my money is on Mirzo). Alvarez is listed at 141 and ranked at that weight on Intermat, but I still think it is Jamison at 141 and Alvarez or Williams at 149. Cael Happel is ranked 12th at 141 on Intermat, and I saw on Ytube match from 2023 where Jamison beats Happel pretty solidly. So do they start Carroll or Doucet. Doucet is a pretty good athletic, just has no offensive moves. So if Carroll can solidly beat Doucet, I think he starts as some pretty good guys could only beat Doucet in close matches. If Carroll and Doucet are close, I think they redshirt Carroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nhs67 Posted October 18, 2023 Author Share Posted October 18, 2023 Now they might have certified a month ago. Nothing set in stone on when they certified. I think the earliest they are allowed to is first week on campus? Someone less ignorant to the actual proceedings might be a better source, though. We talk about it every year, but it's been a year so I very well might be wrong (big might). "I know actually nothing.

nhs67 Posted October 18, 2023 Author Share Posted October 18, 2023 Has me wondering if this will be the line-up in the middle... 141 - Williams (Hughes?) 149 - Alvarez/Jamison Winner 157 - Alvarez/Jamison Loser VS Manibog/Harper Winner 1 "I know actually nothing.

alex1fly Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Interesting to see that Williams is basically at weight already. I guess he didn't cut much in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he didn't cut much in high school. These should be taken with a grain of sand as well... Some guys don't manage weight in the offseason, get out of shape, and can balloon up... other guys stay fit all year round. He could be the latter... which means he has less to lose.

He'll be a stud at 157 don't ya think? Of course that was always a forum poster pipe dream. Sometimes dreams come true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
