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.

Kasak at 165?

This didn’t age well….

Reading is a skill—apparently I am lacking today

Gibson redshirts.

No Cetta?

Surely you jest troll. Admittedly I do root against Penn State as the evil empire—but what are you talking about saying Several Penn State immortals fell? David Taylor fell to another from NLWC in Brooks in the finals. Nolf fell to fellow NLWC teammate Dake in the finals—and he beat freakin Jordan Burrroughs to get there. Nick Lee fell to fellow NLWC teammate in the finals. NLWC member Snyder dominated. The only Penn State immortal that fell to someone outside of Happy Valley was Gilman (some guy named Spencer Lee). They were about as dominant as you can be. I mean three of the six finals had BOTH guys in the finals. If you are a recruit and have aspirations of being an NCAA champ and an Olympian—I can think of NO BETTER recruiting advertisement than what went on this weekend. It scares me actually.

Rini is from Ohio, no?

I don't think Cannon will ever see 141 again....and I also seriously question the notion of Jesse agreeing to sit for a year.

You are upset because a college kid didn't live up to your personal expectations and win enough wrestling matches, so you decide to publicly smear him? That's pretty small of you. Kids post what they are doing with their careers for lots of people that follow them--not just the OU faithful. Friends, peers, family, etc. People that actually care about the kid--not just his record. Major D1 wrestling is hard and you think he should be ashamed or something--so much so that he not even post about leaving? So petty of you. I thought his message was classy and showed gratitude for the opportunity. Give Teddy Roosevelt's "Man in the Arena" a quick read will ya?

Agreed…

I think a Thompson redshirt is the play. I don't know if he will grow into 184 though--but it doesn't matter with Hamiti being a senior. Thompson can redshirt a year and then see what weight he fits at.

They certainly need a HWT. Some good young ones in the portal too.

Well....Webster is registered for the U20 US Open at 70 kg and not 65. Just sayin'....but IL is hurtin' at 125. I tend to believe Attasauov's post that he will be 125
