I was told by someone at Edinboro that Pat Lugo(149) is planning to transfer and Iowa is his first choice. Also considering PSU. He beat Sorenson this year in dual meet. Seems like that weight is a little crowded at Iowa.
Possible transfer
- Thread starter thom67
- Start date
But if he has to sit out a year and can stay at 149, he'd slot right in with BS graduating. Would be a nice add.
It appears he has a RS to burn as he competed his true frosh year.

That would be a very welcome addition, he could redshirt for Sorensens SR year. Wrestle in 2019 his JR year, while hopefully Sasso redshirts, then he and Sasso compete for 149 his SR year and Sasso's RSFR year, may the best man win.
I think he could improve even more in Iowa's room working out with Sorensen, Kemerer and all of the other talent in the 149-165 range. And he's already pretty dang good. Finished R12 as a true FR, and fell off a little at NCAAs this past march, but sometimes these things happen.

It's nuts that we have a 49-65 log jam. Why couldn't we have had that problem a few yrs ago?
Iowa did, Metcalf-Morningstar-Perry! Two of them are still there, but I doubt they'd have the same results.
we do not have a 149 logjam, it seems like a need weight currently, i think this would be huge. i say this having met and very much liked glosser and murphy,but lugo would do very good for us.imo
We had a dry spell after that. Sorenson is our first servicable 49 since Brent. & Ive all but forgotten the Rhoades & Kelly years.
This...Lugo could fill 149 for two years after Brandon
Not from a big ten team so would not have to sit, but does have a red shirt year to use so would work out great. Move in after BS graduates.
It makes sense to fill in after Brandon, but may hurt our recruiting of Sasso. Interesting dilemma if he's really interested. I think I'd prefer to get Sasso, but obviously that's not a guarantee anyway.
Penn State has the same logic, but there's an even bigger problem since their next man up, Berge, is already on board.

That isn't how it works. If Edinboro doesn't release him to Iowa he has to sit out.
But he still has his redshirt so it doesn't matter. He would still have 2 years after he sits.
IOk for got about the release just thought with Cliff Moore there would be automtic.
Only Big Ten to Big Ten would cost him a year. Even with no release he would red shirt and have 2 years left
His family was sitting about 10 rows behind us at the dual last year. As expected they erupted at every take down (and at the time it seemed like he took BS down 1000 times) and when he won. He's a good wrestler who travels with a large contingent of family support, there must have been 15 family members there.
I think Austin was the older one that graduated and actually got a coaching job at Buffalo.
How credible is this source? I don't want to get my hopes up, but he could fill a hole at 49 after BS as many of you have said
Just looked at the Edinboro roster and noticed that Lugo's little brother, Ozzy, is also on the roster.
The source is good. Member of Edinboro wrestling team. Pat is upset with the coaching after a bad NCAA tourney. I do not know if there even has been contact with Iowa as yet.
Good to know I'm not the only one who had no clue about that post.
Maybe Mitchell Port will want to come train with the HWC as well?! Isn't he an assist coach at Boro?
Wouldn't he be one of the coaches Lugo is blaming for his poor performance at NCAAs?
