Where are we? We need to get it done now with Lee and Tease. My kid will be too young to save them if we don't get the bigs.

November, nm. This is dumb, fill the whole. I'll be divorced by the end of this class if someone doesn't start slipping clues. I can't live on this phone.

I feel ya, Waiting till November is killing me! Berge, Warner, and Lyon would make me the happiest Hawkeye fan ever.

It sounds like Warner may be a 197 in college, so having another potential 184/197 recruit would be awesome. Especially Lyon, I honestly didn't know much about him until the Iowa state tournament this season, as I don't follow HS seasons that much anymore, but he has impressed the heck out of me in the last 5-6 months - and he's in state.
 
IA wrestle podcast had Lyon as a guest recently. He said Purdue, UNI, and NDSU were his top three, but that it was still early. He said he goes and trains in UNI's room a lot. He had just got back from the Iowa room that same evening as the pod cast. Clearly there is an interest, but it seems right now Lyon has a better relationship with those three schools.

Someone to keep an eye on is Travis Wittlake. I heard a rumble that there is mutual interest. Will be a junior at 170 this year. He could grow into a nice 184.

Remember we do still have Cash Wiclke who just placed 8th at university nationals to take over for Brooks next year.

Wittlake is tough and would be a great pick up. Good to hear he is intrested. As much as I like Lyon I still obviously want them to land Warner bad.
 
Berge & Warner are our very much interested in Iowa as is Iowa interested in them. Lyon is probably going to end up at UNI with a chance he will end up at Purdue. Wittlake is growing on the staff and Iowa is growing on him.
 
Was over at BWI board and crop duster posted that Penn State made a visit with Berge.
I sill believe Iowa is in the running but so is Neb. and Mn and most likely Penn State also if they can afford him.
 
So..

2014: Stoll, Paddock

2015: Kemerer, Turk, Wilcke, Holloway, Gunther

2016: Marinelli, Young, Happel, Wagner, Rathbun (I believe Bradley will have same eligibility as this class as well)

2017: Lee, Berge, Warner, Troy, Stickley.

2018: Teasdale, Wittlake, TBD

Looks like a championship roster coming together to me :)
