I'd take that1. Jason Nolf, Penn State
2. Joseph Smith, Oklahoma State
3. Dylan Palacio, Cornell
4. Michael Kemerer, Iowa
5. Max Rohskopf, NC State
6. Brian Murphy, Michigan
7. Joey LaVallee, Missouri
8. Larry Early III, Minnesota
He must've based this on WrestleStats rankingsI'd take that
That would be a middle of the road result, IMO. He can make the finalsI'd take that
Palacio seems like he has Smiths number (I promise there's no bias in that statement)
I know someone else likely emerges, but the list doesn't look terribly impressive after the top six.1. Jason Nolf, Penn State
2. Joseph Smith, Oklahoma State
3. Dylan Palacio, Cornell
4. Michael Kemerer, Iowa
5. Max Rohskopf, NC State
6. Brian Murphy, Michigan
7. Joey LaVallee, Missouri
8. Larry Early III, Minnesota
That was my first thought as well. What has Smith done to earn that prediction over Palacio?Palacio seems like he has Smiths number (I promise there's no bias in that statement)
I was wondering that also. Didn't Gunther beat him this summer?How did Early get in there at number 8?
Yes, but everyone knew it was BS pertaining to Gulibon."I'd be lying if I wasn't just a touch concerned that he's ... wrestling up ... What gives me confidence is his frame and the knowledge that putting on necessary size would be important coming into this year."
For those that believe that lightening can strike twice he said exactly the same words about his preseason #1 Gulibon last year (14-11 dnp).
And @ 157? Our grappler says it Striker/Short/Early at 149/157/165. Maybe it's the only weight where he could be a #8.How did Early get in there at number 8?
My guess is the projected learning curve of a TRFROSH >>>>>SOPH vs the expected improvement of a JR>>>>SR.That was my first thought as well. What has Smith done to earn that prediction over Palacio?
That was just my guess, it later was reported he planned to go 157.And @ 157? Our grappler says it Striker/Short/Early at 149/157/165. Maybe it's the only weight where he could be a #8.
In your opinion... who's the odd man out?That was just my guess, it later was reported he planned to go 157.
Or an uncle or cousin I can't decideBeware Joe-Joe. He is a smith.
He will figure things out. He has a lot of dad in him.
