OB, that was last year when Kindig was in the finals after several of the seeded wrestlers on his side of the bracket were upset. Not taking anything away from Josh but if you could have viewed the size difference in the match against SDSU it showed that Josh is a small 149 pounder. There are several wrestlers at his weight like Houdashelt where he will look undersized. I have no idea if Josh can make 141 but he will struggle this year at 149 due to his being undersized. Collica has gotten a lot bigger since last year but he is small for a 157 pounder. He has a lot of ability but he was definitely out-horsed yesterday by Pack.Originally posted by Orangebomber:
Why would Kindig drop to 141 now when it would have possibly won us a national championship two years ago.
Oberebo, I was talking about two years ago when Kindig redshirted. After JO went up to 149 we were not competitive enough at 141 and there was a lot of discussion about Kindig wrestling at 141. If he is in a different place now and is willing to drop that would be great. I have zero inside information but I imagine John is quite aware of what we need.Originally posted by oberebo:
