Scouts Honor Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Not sure if this is true. but it's pretty amazing if it is. wonder if anyone else did this? the announcers said a couple different times that Minnesota lost like 5 starters to the portal/wwe and still qualified 10 wrestlers for NCAA tourney. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that’s what they were talking about. Cael Carlson was the other one who narrowly missed qualifying for Oklahoma.

poorwrestler Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 This is a neat statistic, but I would’ve traded this for just five qualifiers if all five actually did anything. Disappointing season for the gophers for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VakAttack Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Why are so many guys leaving? Personality clashes with the coaching staff? That is a startling number of starter-level talent. Edited March 23 by VakAttack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poorwrestler Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Why are so many guys leaving? Personality clashes with the coaching staff? That is a startling number of starter-level talent.Different circumstances for each. The only two that had the same reason were Spratley and Jamison.

Lunaticfringe Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 As a Gopher fan it was a pretty embarrassing year. My wife as a casual fan said “We are in only 22nd place? is the coach gonna get fired?” They are going after guys who are poor program fits. Remember Chittum was committed for a year as well. We haven’t been able to keep guys from outside the region here. Here is what I would do for next year 125-Morvari Fr 133-Wells-So 141-Vombaur-Jr 149-Roberts-Jr 157-Brenner-Jr 165-Millard True Fr 174-Wester True Fr 184-McEnelly Fr 197-Salazar Sr or Nelson Fr Hwt-Hopke True Fr As based on recent history, you get NOTHING from redshirting guys, they just leave anyways. Wrestle your best team every season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
