typical aj. what a douche announcement.Penn State heavyweight!!!
EDIT: He juked us...now he says Iowa...who knows when he will reveal the no kidding answer.
Third time's a charm. Biggest factor was culture. Official announcement is UNC.
Yeah but he’s speculating negatively while sniffing a jock so it’s ok.
my guess is Elam. but who the hell knows.so seriously who is going to wrestle 197 next year?
I thought it was pretty funny. He played it straight for a bit there.typical aj. what a douche announcement.
makes zero sense for UNC. they need a lot more than just him. could've spread out that money with a couple kids.

Very glad for AJ, the Family, Tony and Rob. Gives them a national champ for the next 2 and maybe 3 years. They have great training partners there for AJ and can build the team around AJ. Don't underestimate Rob's ability to build the program and raise dough.
Totally disagree, as long as he keeps his head on straight, he makes total sense there.makes zero sense for UNC. they need a lot more than just him. could've spread out that money with a couple kids.
Who really knows the financial details of this agreement? Numbers are routinely grossly exaggerated (except for OSU and PSU).makes zero sense for UNC. they need a lot more than just him. could've spread out that money with a couple kids.
Ludington or a 1 year transfer. He isn't getting a lot of talk even though he is the #1 197 recruit. P4P, not sure where he is at.so seriously who is going to wrestle 197 next year?
thought was like #12. i could be wrong though.Ludington or a 1 year transfer. He isn't getting a lot of talk even though he is the #1 197 recruit. P4P, not sure where he is at.
He’s not currently in the portal but as recent history has shown us that may not matter. I think the portal closes in early may (could be off on that).my guess is Elam. but who the hell knows.
he just entered the portal.He’s not currently in the portal but as recent history has shown us that may not matter. I think the portal closes in early may (could be off on that).
Best case scenario Elam, worst case scenario one of the miller brothers. It remains to be seen how well the millers will be in college but right now as a true freshman at 197 I wouldn’t project a lot of national points.
If Elam does end up a Hawk I think that would give iowa a top 10 ish guy at every weight. Which is a pretty decent.
He’s #1 at 197 and around 20pfp for all weights.thought was like #12. i could be wrong though.
We already have our annual circus at the SS. No sense bringing another circus to town!I hope he does well there for the Tarheels. Hawks should schedule them in Carver.
Thought he was serious when he said he’s going to Iowa to wrestle with his brother after first saying PSU at heavyweight. UNC had to be his best offer and biggest program take him. Said he may go to heavyweight because 197 was hard to make, and he’s 125 now. He knew he wasn’t beating out keuter at heavyweight even if the door was open again. Hope he does go heavyweight, because we will have a better chance of beating him there than anyone we end up with at 197. If Elam is in portal we need to take a chance on him and hope he doesn’t end up like Teamer. Could throw Ludington or Miller to the wolves as true freshman, but hate to get them used to losing.Also can't hurt that it brings him a lot closer to home...
Definitely talented. Big step up for anyone to Div I wrestlers and especially Big 10. Would be nice to get a 1 yr rental and wrestle him like they did Angelo this last year. Training with Buchannan, Ferrari, JWar and Keuter, he may just be ready to go January.thought was like #12. i could be wrong though.
Forgot unc does come to the salute. That could be really ugly with the fans heckling and booing the shit out of him while his parents are there and Angelo is wrestling for us. I don’t see Angelo being stupid enough to leave a great thing here where he is already loved by the biggest fan base in the country to go toUNC. Anthony is on the portal and could see him following AJ there, would be big step up from LIU for him.We already have our annual circus at the SS. No sense bringing another circus to town!
Hi Bob,I think it makes a lot of sense for UNC.
Very glad for AJ, the Family, Tony and Rob. Gives them a national champ for the next 2 and maybe 3 years. They have great training partners there for AJ and can build the team around AJ. Don't underestimate Rob's ability to build the program and raise dough.
I forgot that the Tarheels have entered a few in the SS..........interesting to consider. To me, AJ has shown he can be focused without the extras this last year so again I wish him luck in NC but not against Hawks if he comes to SS.We already have our annual circus at the SS. No sense bringing another circus to town!
They still mightHi Bob,
I agree but if they have so much money then why can’t they keep McNeil and have at least another AA
All about the training partner for McNeil. I think UNC is light here. I can well imagine that Rob and Tony are trying to fix that as I do not think McNeil was after a lot of dough. Good for UNC if they can keep himHi Bob,
I agree but if they have so much money then why can’t they keep McNeil and have at least another AA
I think he’ll potentially do better at a school that builds a program around him, as Bob mentioned above. Good for AJ and UNC, imo. Congrats!Totally disagree, as long as he keeps his head on straight, he makes total sense there.
Until next year's portalThe drama is over - we can all move on. Thankfully
I don't foresee this happening, honestly.Forgot unc does come to the salute. That could be really ugly with the fans heckling and booing the shit out of him while his parents are there and Angelo is wrestling for us. I don’t see Angelo being stupid enough to leave a great thing here where he is already loved by the biggest fan base in the country to go toUNC. Anthony is on the portal and could see him following AJ there, would be big step up from LIU for him.
You don't think his "bag" doesn't come with contingencies?Put me in the camp that AJ got his bag, hasn’t changed his spots, and will be a lot for the coaches @ UNC to deal with.
