Iowa Roster has been updated - with errors

They keep listing Marinelli at 157. Obviously he'll go 165, but it still concerns me about his size. The weight class is already loaded, I hope he's not giving up that much size to them.

If you watched The Bull compete this off season you shouldn't be concerned about his size.

I actually thought he looked a little small still this summer, compared to McFadden. Maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me. Obviously he was smaller than Mark Hall, but I was thinking more of the guys in his weight. Regardless, I think his motor will bring him success, I'm just a bit concerned about it.

Was watching in person at JR WTT's and thought he already looked noticeably bigger than the season, I think part of him still looking smallish is due to being short/not having an especially large frame in general. FWIW, I've heard in this fall preseason he was weighing 180-185. Was lifting like a mad man with Rutt all summer.

Really hope so. I think he's got multiple titlist written all over him.

With wrestling season officially underway I looked to see if the roster had been updated and it has. Guessing these are the weights we can expect to see wrestle offs at. Of note, Gunther listed at 165, rather than 174 like a few thought might happen for a better shot at making the lineup. And if weights hold true it will be Perez Perez to start the season anyway.

This was discussed awhile back. The general consensus is to not take the listed weights to the bank. Some are just a copy of last year's without any real thought put into it. (Like 215 for Stoll)

He's just fine...has gotten a lot bigger from when I met him the summer he got here.
Kemdawg looking large also. I'm more concerened with Young's size at 174 then Marinell's at 165. I haven't heard much about Young's progression and size. Anyone like to share what they see from him, who he works out with the most? He's preseason ranked 20th on Flo correct?

Can someone give us an assessment of Young after the next Saturday practice? He hasn't been talked about too much following Saturday practice recaps.

He was 20th initially and then got bumped off. I think they are putting up new rankings soon though.

My bad, I read right over the Stoll weight, I must have just read the first and last numbers. Had I saw that they had not corrected that I would have not have even mentioned anything. Seems like whatever you are when they create the profile stays except the year in school which gets messed up at times as well.

I think he certified at 157 last season to be an emergency option.
