It just feels like this is going to happen. Desanto as an Iowa Hawkeye next year would be incredible. Who could say no to the Brands in Iowa city this weekend with the World Cup going on?
Don't pull all of the shirts! You graduate one guy from the line up that you list and replace him with Lugo. No reason to pull all of the shirts this year
Also if Stickley is performing and manning the spot then there would be no reason to pull Lee's redshirt. The only reason to pull the shirt is if 125 is a black hole. Healing time is only going to benefit Spencer.
No real surprise here. It is too bad that one of our three division one schools in the state didn't land this talent. When not competing against our state schools I will cheer for Teske.
Tom Brands has done many great things in Iowa City as a coach and competitor. Don't discount what he will do in the future. Things have a tendency to run their cycles. We will be back on top soon enough. Their is more parity in college wrestling than we have ever seen. Yes ..... PSU is...
Any updates on practice would be appreciated. I have a lot curiosity coming into this season.
Who looks to making the cut to 125?
Who is the front runner at 141? Turk or Happel?
I know Lugo plans to redshirt but how does he look? Who is he practicing with?
Has Kaleb Young put on enough...
It could end up much like Gilman and Clark. I think when we recruited those two we knew one would go to 133. I would be more than happy to have them both. Teske by genetics will likely stay small. Maybe Spencer can grow into 133 after a redshirt but I don't know that that was the plan? Maybe...
I think the problem is that Teske and Lee are both likely to be at 125 for there whole college career. We could get use the red shirts and an Olympic red shirt to get 6 years of varsity competition between the two of them. We could also pray for one of them to grow. Regardless I think we need...
this is crazy..... I agree time to move on! The other day there was also an article about Murin making the cut to 133. While I don't think he is our long term solution due to the size of the weight cut, but is he our immediate future?
I see that PDIII has tweeted a lot about Iowa. Obviously we all believe he is going to end up being a Hawk. Question is when do we expect and official announcement or did I miss it?
