Redshirts:
Blaze

Blaze and Duke need to focus on their top game specifically.

Given the incoming talent Davis should never start again, nothing against him

Needs:
D1 sized HWT

I think it's a little more complicated, 141 is kind of a question mark with blaze and Desmond and Ono might be a little undersized for that weight. Also Duke may not want to red shirt and can he go all the way to 174. As for hwt who is coming in?

Everyone has Ono penciled in but we don’t know how good he’ll be from referee’s position. Everyone else has been wrestling it their entire lives.

I would have said "nonsense" a few months back, nobody can handle Ono on his feet, but a pair of losses (each) by Duke and Blaze showed exactly how important it is in folkstyle. You know guys will "Iowa" every match against Ono and try to stall their way to tiebreakers.

The HWY talk is crazy. Mirasola may never win a title, but he's almost a lock to AA the next few years. Who exactly are they going to get in the portal?

Next year… probable line-up. Another championship but Okie State is knocking on the door with a very young and talented squad.

Hopefully they have a meet at the Beav in late Oct/early Nov.

125 - Lilledahl Jr.
133 - Ono Jr.
141 - Desmond Fr.
149 - Van Ness Sr. (Blaze in 28)
157 - Kasak Jr.
165 - Messenbrink Sr. (Duke in 28)
174 - Henckel Fr.
184 - Welch Jr.
197 - Barr Jr.
285 - Mirasola

Duke not very good in referee's position either.

Doubt you ever see Blaze at 149. In 28 you see James in the line up.

With all those juniors it’s no secret why Cael is hitting the class of 27 hard and will hit the class after too - the latter class has 4 guys in the top 11 from our recruiting grounds and are sprinkled amongst need weights. Hint, Diceman’s spreadsheet lists all 4 prominently and adds a 5th from a little further away from our close in recruiting area.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph

Did I miss the medal round and finals?

By the way if you need to know this now, Ono is having no problems getting off bottom in the room. Maybe he is on a dead lift program?

I’m still enjoying this year.

I don’t think Blaze jumps all the way up to 149.

Presumably this why he has been in the room so long. Ono is elite and if I were a betting man (I’m not), I’d say his top and bottom game will be just fine. That said, mat wrestling is not gonna be where he exerts his dominance.
