2 years, no? If he’s a career 125, it’s certainly possible that there’s no room at the inn for Sidun until his Junior year. Regardless, good problems to have.
I think Luke will fill out nicely for 133 by his 5th year. As for most, kids I doubt Oky St. Or PSU will see more than 4 guys at a time start for 5 years. It takes a special kind of blue chipper to achieve that. Top 10 p4p won't guarantee a 5 year career. Let's just call a freshman year on the bench a silent redshirt. I suspect that's likely for Sidun as great as he is.

Would you mind telling me how to add multiple posts to a message? I never seem to be able to do it. TIA
Sure!
  1. Beneath each post you wish to insert, click the “+ Quote” (toggles to “- Quote” when selected) button that is next to the like button.
  2. Once those are all selected in this manner, start a new post or reply and there should be an “Insert Quotes” button at the bottom of the edit post screen.
  3. You are then presented with the list of posts that you have collected, and you can remove any before finishing the insertion process by tapping “Quote Messages” (This is sometimes useful because when you collect quotes with that quote button, they’ll stay with you until you either insert them in a post or remove them).

I also use quote if I want to read through the rest of the thread to see if someone else has already said what I want to say, without having to scroll back up to find the post I want to refer to…

I use reply if I don’t care to do that/just speak up immediately.

And I was ostracized just for raising the question . . . Tragic if it (Ono wrestling folk) never happens . . .
Your joyful presence, fun avatar, insights, and interactions here prove you are not “excluded from a group by the agreement of the group’s members.” And Masa not wrestling is not tragic (merely disappointing as F).
Ostracized? Far from it. Your fondness for melodrama only adds to this board’s entertainment quality. ;)

Lilledahl's Olympic aspirations almost necsssitate a move to 133. Making 125 multiple times during the season would not allow him to get big enough. He needs to be a "small" 133 who only cuts a few times to 57kg to maximize his potential.

Want to place a wager on Lilledahl's weight class for 27-28?

I thought I saw C-Star on the sidelines too. Maybe not, it was a quick shot of "him."

I love how much Ono is enjoying his time at Penn State. There was a poster on the Intermat forums who commented that Ono was wasting his freestyle career by being at Penn State. I replied back: Ono seems to be thoroughly enjoying his time at Penn State. I remember seeing a video of him at Rec Hall for a Penn State dual and he was obviously having a grand time. He is a young man who seems to live life to the fullest. He is getting to enjoy college life, make new friends, and experience America up close. Not every world class athlete wants to make their life all about their athletic pursuits. Ono is also young enough that he can afford to take this wrestling "detour" and get back to his freestyle pursuits. In short, I think Ono is "living his best life." Kudos to him for taking the "road less traveled".

It's similar to people saying PSU wrestlers are wasting their time not being a starter at PSU and should leave immediately.

People always have some very strong ideas about major life decisions that don't remotely affect them and aren't theirs to make.

No offense to the genius on the Intermat forums, but nobody is wasting their time wrestling in State College......unless they are not paying attention. It is sad the nonsense folks come up with in their pea brains due to the jealousy they have for others. Coveting makes people do and say colossally stupid things. I hope the person gets the help they need.

Oh I understand how valuable it is if you have a dominant 125 and heavyweight. I was looking at the ceiling and what Penn State has coming in Sidun.
So...that's a question for next year when Sidun arrives

some posts on pg 12, TIFWIW:

If Ono is a No-Go this year, I see the line up like this:

125 Lilledahl
133 Desmond
141 Blaze
149 Van Ness
157 Kasak
165 Duke
174 Messenbrink
184 Welsh
197 Barr
285 Mirasola (one of them...)

If Ono is a "GO" then slot him in at 133, rest stays the same

yes... but i would wonder then if Desmond and Blaze are reversed?
I think Blaze moves up if Ono is in the line up
but if not Desmond goes 141

will be fun to see what Cael does
