Re: Transfer portal

The Cornell guys are probably greatly deflated over only having one Big Red going to the Olympics. Probably figured Arujau would be going and maybe Yanni. Lehigh also has one. Lol.

Re: Transfer portal

Go after Kyle Parco at 149/157 or not worth it? :lol: Is #3 guy good enough or should we see how the room develops? Parco was a wrestling club teammate of Bailey in California and I believe Bailey's dad was a coach there. I also believe Yozzo was connected to that club/family and that's how Bailey ...

Re: Transfer portal

HFO would like to see Mosher move up from 165 to take 174 and Hale at 184. Mosher was 10-10 at 165. Hale is ranked 32 at 184. I think HFO would agree that young guys generally have more upside than graduates, and it's not uncommon for graduates to actually decline. Wilt has wrestled two seasons and ...

Re: Transfer portal

Schoppe wrestled at 175 as a senior in high school and in his one bout from last season.

I see that he had a high school win over Jack Gelato. That must have been sweet.

Re: Transfer portal

No way, not when it comes to 165-184. Take whatever we can get. A tate samuelson type would only benefit the "culture" because we would not lose winnable duals due to the "gap". Even a Brignola type who will fight tough and hover in the 20s. The need is extreme. Maybe Wilt and S...

Re: Transfer portal

O and HFO, It would have taken another 12 1/2 points at Nationals to move up two spots from 15th to 13th; three points to move up all of one spot. Are your #24-38 portal guys going to score 12 1/2 points? Is it worth it to move up one spot to 14th? Oh, and they're not car salesmen. They're student-a...

Re: Transfer portal

Maybe. Let's say you hired a salesperson. After a year, they are not producing and there is no indication they will in the future. Your options are to keep then on and 'hope' they start producing, or cut them loose and hire someone else with the feeling maybe you get lucky with that next person. Al...

Re: Transfer portal

HFO, you have Dubler at 165, Brancato at 174 and Wilt at 184 on the chopping block. Do you know that they're the projected starters for next season? Do you know that Herceg isn't returning? He at times took his lumps for the team wrestling up a weight and had a win against Cornell that was big in th...

Do we know for a fact that he was the Leader of the Pack? I thought I saw elsewhere on this site that Ayres was the heavy. If so, maybe it didn't go over well.

Re: Freestyle season

Even with their disappointing showing at the Nationals, LU was the top finisher among private universities. And only Stanford among the privates finished on a comparable level.
