Jimmy Cinnabon Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 * This ranking assumes the wrestlers win out, in typical fashion ** With Yianni already taking a L he is out of the rankings 1. Spencer Lee - With Yianni losing, the Hodge is Spencer's to lose. He could wrestle the minimum regular season matches, skip Big 10s, and will still win NCAAs easily. 4x NCAA champ = auto-Hodge 2. RBY - this is a tough one since Starrocci and Brooks can also become 3x national champs this year, but I think if RBY beats Fix for a 3rd time in the finals he wins it. 3. Brooks - I think the margin between RBY, Brooks and Starroci is slim but I see Brooks winning in a more dominant fashion. 4. Starroci - I think he can become a 3x NCAA champ. Lewis can still knock him off though. 5. O'Toole - can become a 2x NCAA champ, will probably score a ton of bonus this season. 6. Schultz - a snoozefest but should easily repeat as NCAA champ this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. PeanutButter Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I would be elated if Spencer Lee were to win the Hodge but it wouldn't sit well with me if he did so while wrestling less than 10 matches. The Hodge is supposed to be a seasonal award. I know that's not how the committee will vote, but I sure wish they would abide by the criteria, or change it officially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if any of the 65s can run the table they’ll be in the mix for Hodge as all 3 will be 2x champs. If O’Toole is able to beat Carr multiple times and then win NCAAs with Carr and Griffith, I’m giving it to him. He will have a lot of pins and a very strong schedule. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d think all of the following would be “big names” that would have to lose for Yianni to win Lee (or wrestle less than like 10 matches) RBY or Fix O’Toole or Carr Starocci Brooks Don’t see that happening Edited November 24, 2022 by 1032004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carr 2x (at least), plus potentially a very tough QF, semi and final. If he runs that gauntlet, he deserves to win it. I think anyone with a loss should be out, automatically.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk O’Toole will not lose this year and quite possibly not another college match, barring injury. This kid is special. I’ve watched him wrestle a lot and he is always in control. He went through a gauntlet last years Championships with a broke ankle. Nobody is going to stop him and to be honest I don’t even think it is close. If he put his mind to it I think he could bonus everyone this year including Carr. O’Toole will go down as an all timer. I think the only thing that keeps him from going up to 174 and taking on Starocci is staying in closer range to 74kg for Olympic weight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was 25-0 with a ton of bonus as essentially a redshirt freshman. Would be cool to see him bump up to take on Starocci in a year or two (assuming Starocci doesn’t bump to 184 after Brooks graduates). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestej Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) I think he majors Carr. Lots of people probably don’t realize just how good this kid is. He shut it down in the all star match. He doesn’t stop just keeps going keeps scoring. Special Edited November 24, 2022 by Wrestej 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibby Haynes Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 O'toole may have to beat carr 4 times this year. Scuffle,isu dual,big 12s and nationals. That's more than carr has lost his entire career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
