Junior Class Targets?

im still on the fence regarding Nate's college weight. can he hold 125? if so how long. at the moment i think he ends up a 33 but time will tell. every year there are a handful of guys i think are future 125's that grow out of it. This year was Zeth Romney (CA), Jore Volk (MN) Cole Hunt (GA) and probably Cory Land (AL). Then there's guys like Bouzakis who i thought would be a 149 eventually, who now looks like a 141 tops and probably 33 to start.

Nate is super short. I suppose he may have some growing left in him, but if he doesn't I'd think 125 is his college weight.
 
Nate J makes Tomasello seem tall, I'd be shocked if he's not a career 125. He's like 4-11" or 5' but strong as an ox. Lilledahl does have "ties" to Iowa in the form of Sammie Henson who's worked with Luke for years and he and his dad are close with Sammie. And we all know where Sammie's kid ended up at. I'm sure Luke will grow into a 133 in college and I think it'll be Mizzou, ASU, Oklahoma State, and Iowa in the mix for him.

On a side note, Sammie wrestled at Clemson with Troy Bouzakis and I'm sure they've kept in touch. Hopefully that'll help Iowa with recruiting Troy's kids.

I never would have bet McDonough would be a career 125 lber, so.....
If memory serves me well, didn’t McDonough have a pretty tough cut? I was talking with McDonough’s Dad at Nationals during his Jr. year. He said, “ They often started neutral, and neither one could get a takedown for 20 minutes.” I often wondered why they didn’t flip weights?
 
So Iowa’s official visit will be October 9th for e Iowa vs PSU football game. I imagine this will be for the 22 & 23 class correct?
