Eierman in the Transfer Portal
- Thread starter JohnBasedow
- Start date
He was a 2015 high school graduate. 2011 he was in 8th grade so very reasonable.So he was a 7th grader last time Iowa won it
But he was watching wrestling prior to 2011 is my point. Most kids start registering sports and watching teams around 3/4th grade. Think back to when you remember your first Iowa bowl game, NCAA finals, World Series or Super bowl. I started remembering and registering in 85 to 86.
So my point is in say 2007/2008 who was looking really good on TV. Iowa was just about to go on a run. Perry had some funk to him and was a #1 recruit. He upset Hendricks in something im sure Jaydin was watching.
To me thats what shaped him. Im sure he appreciated Taylor, Ruth and co but thats after Perry already stole his heart.
No doubt in my mind he's a Mark Perry fan.Like I said would like to see him with Perry be interesting to see

Yeah a pretty harsh comment on my part in hindsight, posted in frustration over the direction the sport is headed at the collegiate level, both with RTCs and now the transfer system. I feel pretty strongly both of these are really stacking the deck against the small guy. I'm a wrestling fan first, hawk fan second. Here's hoping transfers stay the exception rather then the rule but somehow I doubt it.
I don’t see this at all.
Why would Nick Lee go into the portal and transfer to Iowa. Just makes no sense.
Iron sharpens Iron, if Eierman wants to learn how to be a more aggressive wrestler , takedown U is the place to go.
The anticipation is killing me. If I don't make it can someone read the results at my eulogy?
No they're not, but Penn State has been more successful the last ten years .
Either way , he'll chose to go where he wants to go and I think the decision will be decided more than a young child's fan worship .
This is some serious excitement right before the season kicks off for us. We can all thank Eierman for the tailgater before our first meet. Hope it ends well for the good guys.
Wait, is this more like tailgating or red carpet before the big show? Either way, this season is starting with a lot of excitement and we don't even know our 33 and 41 ers yet. Damn life is good right now! GO HAWKS!

Fify. You must be expecting Molinaro to be his main training partner if he chooses PSU?
Embarrassed. Walking away with tail between legs...
Psst...believe he’s going to Iowa
as soon as you wouldn't answer i knew he was coming, thanks for not lying or breaking the trust someone else placed in you.
Max is just a soph and he has every opportunity to with the 141 spot for the next 3 years. I realize it's a forgone conclusion that Lugo and Eierman for 20 and 21 @ 149, but the same opportunity is there for Max at 149 as well. Lastly, Desanto has a RS to burn in either of the next 2 years. Just saying the door has not closed on Max having a spot in the lineup.

Max is a very good wrestler and a huge 141. I don’t think he will give up on himself as easily as you did.
I wouldn’t count him out this year at 141 (vs and undersized DeSanto - and DeSanto RS) or bumping up to take on Turk and Lugo at 149.
Next year would be tough to get in the lineup unless DeSanto takes a RS or otherwise cannot wrestle due to injury, etc.
His senior year he would slot in as the starter at 149.
Does this help explain why Murin isn't listed on the wrestle-off schedule that was put out. Maybe he's already preparing for his stint in the transfer portal?
I doubt it. The preseason matches were announced a couple weeks ago with the official list coming out yesterday (right?). That means our coaching staff legally couldn't start recruiting Eierman until he appeared on the transfer portal yesterday.
That would be a pretty big gut-punch reaction by Murin if he's already considering a transfer. IMO, if Turk doesn't leave, I don't suspect Murin will either.
Eierman transferring really has little impact on Max's future. For starters it has no impact on this year. Next year if Eierman is 141 Max can go 149 like has been talked about or if Eierman is 149 Max could go 141 and AD could red shirt, the following year AD 141 and Max 149.

Whoa there buddy. My post was meant in support of Max, his wrestling abilities and his probable mindset. I didn’t mean it as any slight to you (although rereading my post I can see how you might feel that way). Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Got lucky one time..
I'll tip the hat to @FD_HWC ...he is the one that mentioned Eierman and a transfer possibility seemingly out of left field the other day. That combined with some other
leads me to believe there is at least a chance. With this transfer portal thing...
