Hawks wrestling in US Open Las Vegas April?

If we ever see Ben on the mat it’ll be a long time from now if he can still make 97kg. He has a lot eating and countless hours in the weight room to be a high level D1 heavyweight wrestler. Maybe football team wants him smaller to be quick OLB, otherwise they would have him well into the bulk up process by now.

You do realize our current 97kg rep on the senior level was a HWT in college and won 3 titles right? Ben also hasn’t even gone to college yet. People make big jumps when getting into a college weight room.

He has been at 220 the past 2 highschool seasons.

Yep you’re right. Damn memory.

This. Football wants Ben around 240 from what I understand. Snyder dominated around that weight and is significantly shorter than Ben. Kueter could win multiple national championships at 240, and he could be there quite soon, on full feed with a D1 S/C program. Not a big deal for a guy of his stature.

I can’t imagine the Hawks want a 213 lb OLB

I’ll bet you all the money you have that he sees the mat for the Hawks. Give it a freaking rest.
