It's kind of wild that a college wrestler can make more money than most the coaches on the staff.
It is stupid to be honest, but here we are. In a non revenue sport on top of it.It's kind of wild that a college wrestler can make more money than most the coaches on the staff.
I think both Raney's (who wrestled 55kg and 60kg at U17 World Championships) will wrestle high school season without really cutting... I expect them to end up at 133/141 and 149 maybe by end of college. Not sure if they are going to get much taller so, 133/141 might be the top end... But, I expect them to end up at Okie State or Illinois..They are still short also, don’t see them 149/157 in college, could see Bo and Jax filling out to those weights possibly, which wouldn’t be good if they go to PSU. I’m more concerned about loosing them to Taylor.
I'm sure Ryan is selling him as the cornerstone to building a dynasty ends PSU's dominance. Get Bo and you are sure to scoop up other top recruits. Be special superstar at tOSU, not just another top 5 get for Cael.Speaking of Bo, I read his description of his Ohio State visit. Apparently two of his biggest sponsors headquarters are in or close to Columbus. We know Ryan is a good recruiter and he did a brilliant move. He took Bo and his family to some really cool church Sunday morning, playing right into their strong christen beliefs. Ryan was also the guy who left Bo a phone message when recruiting opened up, that Bo described as poetry. The man knows how to kiss ass. He was also impressed with the coaches he would have in their RTC, and made it sound like it would be a big deal to him if Colman Scott becomes full time in their RTC. Plus it’s drivable distance. We need to get him and Jax to one of our big meets this year to have a prayer.
And Bo is a 149. So I don't see a scenario that Iowa gets all 4 of Bo,Jax and Raney brothers
Would take BoMan that would suck to have to choose (although an excellent problem to have). Obviously Bo and Jax are the bigger names and safer bets, but man...i love watching the Raneys wrestle.
I still think Jax is a longshot, so that begs the question would you want Bo by his lonesome (this year) or the Raneys?
