Yeah, I was under the impression that Amos was moving to HWT to go the Kyle Snyder route. Wrestle folk at 230 and cut down to 213 for Greco/FS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antitroll2828 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 8 hours ago, nhs67 said: I am a big fan of Joey Davis - always was and always will be. That said, his senior year - in which he won at 184lbs, he scraped by in a 4-2 Decision victory over a ~0.500 wrestler from Penn who was also coming up fro 174lbs. Add in that despite him having a good size advantage on Alex Dieringer at the ASC, Dieringer dominated - dare I say destroyed - him. His Junior year he did beat Ottinger (CMU starter, multiple time NQ, Mark Martin (OSU starter, multiple time NQ) and Wilps (Pittsburgh starter who placed 7th that year) at 174lbs, so maybe 184 wasn't the optimal weight for him. So if he isn't going to be a good example of those who could succeed from D2 to D1 then I don't know who would be. There are many examples to pool from. Unfortunately there are going to be more D2/D3 guys who don't find the same success than do, and there are going to be many more guys who don't find success at the D1 level that do at the D2/D3 level. There is a reason D1 is considered the highest level. Edit: Isaiah White is a good example, but I think he is an exception. Particularly because he was supposed to go the D1 route and couldn't academically make it, so his 'pit stop' was to fix those issues. TJ Hepburn could’ve been a D1 AA ,maybe a finalist , he was 3rd in sr nationals only losing to Jamal Parks who then put it on Molinaro in the finals ,he was always talented enough to wrestle D1 but didn’t have the grades and went Juco for a year where he took 2nd then went 3rd, 2nd ,1st at D2 nationals . His senior year he made the midlands finals and lost to then 2x ncaa champ Kyle Dake 4-0 , he won the Wyoming open multiple times and beat a lot of D1 guys over the years. Whatever level he wrestled at he was going to rise to the top . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegularStalling Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) Eh, ASU has actually been pretty weak when it’s come to additions through the portal since ‘21. Who have they gotten since Parco? Negron? McLane? Edited May 22 by RegularStalling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He believe he attended school his second year at Colby. Maybe a starter, but not a given. Also, don't forget he beat James Green.

Indiana-Hawk-Wrestling-Fan Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Any update on Cannon? @Husker_Du A lot of people were alluding that Cannon would go back to Northwestern but I’m still intrigued where he will land. Plus will he be up at 141 or stay at 131? I know he has been battling lingering injuries. I have also heard that Amine has visited VTech, going to Visit ISU, and that he was interested in Rutgers? Any more updates on him as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any more updates on him as well? NW makes sense at 133 for Cannon. NW really needs help there. They should have Talshahar and Vandevere back from injury at 141. I hope Amine can come back strong—very tough dude—but he looked cooked in the matches I watched him last year. Wrestling hasn’t been too kind to these older dudes trying to squeeze out another year—his heart better be in it all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea definitely would’ve been a dogfight good call, still I would give him at worst a 50/50 shot against those guys also shout out to Colby community in the last 2000s and earlier 2010s Edited May 22 by Antitroll2828 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute dogfight, but why lose and lose that year of eligibility? Get in the lineup a couple of times, then lose your spot, lose a year.
