Not relevant anymore. Grads still have to enter when the portal is open.
This one has me confused. Perhaps he’s been in the portal and it was never reported?

I am surprised that with the talk of Jacobi Teemer potentially coming what it means for Kennedy moving to 157.
No way you bring in Teemer if Kennedy is making the move or do you? Doesn’t make sense to me.
149: Parco
157: Teemer
165: Caliendo
174: Kennedy/Arnold
184: Brands
We may see the Kennedy/Arnold match up after all

At this point, Kennedy is closer to being a full 174 than ever making 157.
Here’s what you’re missing: no one is talking about Kennedy cutting to 157.
You don’t trust Booms’s info but you do Mineo? I would trust the local 90 year old cashier lady at Casey’s gas station to have more reliable wrestling info than Mineo.
No. Not that. Just that Mineo is direct, even if wrong. I'd say too many hints with too much tapdancing, followed by too many wrong guesses, resulted from Boom's post.
So is Nelson definitely going at 184? Last year, I think Gabe said that Nelson was beating him in the room. Brands has done a lot better at 174 than at 184. Any chance he might want to go 174? That would really create a logjam. Just wondering.
I believe Brands said he was going 184
Adding teemer would bump pk outta the lineup. Maybe teemer can do 133 or 197?
It will be Gabe vs PK to decide whose sitting
Maybe I missed something, but is there anything other than pure speculation (and Parco coming) that Teemer is specifically considering Iowa? I saw he was listed at 165 in the portal.
No, there isn't.
Nelson will be 4 years removed from his last matches at 184 when he takes the mat at the 2025 NCAAs. Safe to say he's a different guy today.
That's up to the wrestler and besides the grad transfer portal isn't open yet, so why pre-announce prior to that? We sure aren't going to announce anything prior to the grad transfer portal opening up, because that wrestler can't officially sign on yet.
Does grad transfer open up during August (Academic year)? That is the way I understood the new grad transfer rules.
Yeah, as much as I like Kennedy, if you can get Teemer you JUMP at that opportunity and let the cards fall where they may...
My source says this is the case. He's bulked up to the 190s.
Interesting listening to him on FRL he said we’ll see how it works out but if you ask me I’m going 174.
Link to the gas station lady's Twitter so I can follow?
Well, here's to having an undersized 184 next year.
Hopefully the uncertainty gets solved soon. One of these guys should be putting themself in the best position to compete at 184. Not letting the chips fall where they may second semester and being severely undersized.
Undersized Angelo and Riggins at 84. I don’t think there’s any chance Nelson is not the 184.So we have three guys at 174 and no 184...
I agree but we've been through this before and it generally isn't an ideal situation.
On the bright side, Riggins has had time and the frame to fill out to a full 184. Angelo would be better, but why waste a year to have true freshman undersized at a weight class when they have a redshirt to use, like we did with Gabe. Gabe is bigger than PK, has to cut to 174. If one has to go 184, Gabe makes more sense. Start eating and lifting a lot now.
Riggins, no. Hell no. Angelo needs to get on big bros program (or the PSU weight gain plan) to be an effective 184 this year...so probably not.
Gabe may be bigger than PK but he's about a half-foot too short for 184...and may not want to be a 184. I know we have a family member on the board but if the coaches came to my top 10 recruit and said, you need to start eating and lifting so my nephew can have an 12th year on the team, I might start looking at portal options.
Yeah pretty sure she’s still sending telegrams not sure she knows what Twitter is.
Agree, he may not have been full 189, but looked lean and I bet was at least 184. Also beat Sinclair, best 197 incoming freshman this year. Best lineup probably him 184, and if Caliendo doesn’t drop a weight, Gabe/PK battle for 174.
Regardless of who would have "won" last year's battle it still would have been an open competition this year. All that would have been accomplished is losing a year for Gabe.
Unfortunately not what they are saying in the other thread, but could be a bit of bait n switch, Nelson has a good sense of humor
