I believe the team doesn't need him to win Nationals, but looking at the weight class, I don't think there is a clear cut favorite. I could see Haines make a very deep run at the tournament.What? Far from a no brain decision. Intermat currently has us winning the tournament by 34.5 points while Flo has us winning by 54 points, without bonus points and our 157 not reaching AA. This clearly shows we don't need Haines to win the national championship and the decision is purely about what's best for the wrestlers and the future of the team. By future, Haines to could possibly use a redshirt to grow into a higher weight class.

Ok, we agree the team doesn't need points at 157. Than the question is what's better for Haines and what's better for the future team lineups? Instead of going deep in the tournament perhaps with a redshirt year he wins the tournament? Maybe next year he grows and wants to move up to 165 or 174 and needs a year to build up muscle and get used to being larger? Maybe Cael sees a potential hole in lineup a few years from now and wants to have Haines available? Many moving parts. I guess we'll find out Friday night.I believe the team doesn't need him to win Nationals, but looking at the weight class, I don't think there is a clear cut favorite.

Cael is also on record that he doesn't think Levi is going to be a 157 for long. It may make more sense to save the RS for when he moves weight classes both from the team and the individual perspective.Ok, we agree the team doesn't need points at 157.

We have a pretty significant log jam in the middle weights over the next 3-4 years. Levi is clearly our best 157 this year and he may wish get after it now. Not ALL scenarios for the future allow for Levi to start at 165.What? Far from a no brain decision.

"If"?My guess is that if Haines is beating Bearclaw in the room then he lets Haines decide.
