I was going to post 1 later, but just saw your thread. I agree with your lineup, except hopefully someone can drop from 41 to 33. Question I have and it might be crazy.....IF, IF nobody drops to 33 or nobody transfers in at that weight, would it be better for Lee to bump up (for best lineup possible and he would still do well) and if we have someone else transfer in/backup take his place at 25? I dont want Lee to bump up as he is nearly a guaranteed champ with bonus when he is in at 25. Just thinking out loud......
Hopefully we can pull someone into the 33 spot. Kills me that all these small D1 schools have AAs yet we can't have a top 20 guy at 33...WTF!! 
Only matters for duals unless they’re a blue chip recruit or a diamond in the rough. Otherwise not enough points to make up the deficit. That said, coaches have a responsibility to put the most competitive team on the mat.
But but but, what if PSU finally chokes at Nats? It gotta happen sometime, right?
I know you're being sarcastic and of course it's no simply because Cael is so strong. LOL, all you have to do is "just have fun"......K. It's Gable all over again and you know it. Only thing that could happen is Cael gets run over by a bus (no ideas now).
Suriano too? I would be pissed if my coach let Keener and Schup come in, take the starting spot from recruited guys and then lay eggs at Nationals and then take off. Crappy move. That’s the difference. Bowman, Warner and Wilcke were very much involved with the PDIII decision. Lugo will be in the room for a whole year and a half before he takes over....he is a part of the team, not borrowed. Next year we may very well borrow a 133 just to show we can!
Even Belichick had 18-1. Penn State wrestling hasn’t underperformed in 8 years. They’re due.
What? Every guy out there this weekend loves their coach, not just at PSU. Ever listen to Gilman, Metcalf or any other Iowa wrestlers talk?
I don't know until somebody finds out what's going on in that wrestling room every day this isn't gonna stop. Surprised his top assistants haven't been lured away with big money deals. But I guess you could say eventually.
The point was there isn't a better body of work out there and it's sort of a fact.
But why does Nickel love Cael? He’s still using moves he’s been hitting since 6th grade? Kid is a tool, sorry I try not to poke at athletes but he opened himself up for it with his ridiculous comments. Even the Cornell kid (Palacio?) that beat Kemerer last year in the semis sounded saner in his post match interview.
Iowa, Ok State, ISU, Minnesota: It’s happened to every other team that’s been on top. Wrestling is tough. One day all of your super studs have a bad day all at the same time.
I don't know, lost himself in the emotions?? Really don't understand the hating on Nickal this time around. Excellent kid from an excellent family......really haven't seen it before from him. Seen it from Hall but not him. Kids gotta be kids sometimes but that's a fine young man out there.
Comments like this are just dumb. Cael was what, 2nd, 4th, 3rd @Iowa State in three years? So I guess with those resources he was producing about what Brands produces at Iowa. Won the Conference all three years and was National Coach of the year...yea, he was really sucking it up at ISU.

Yeah but it hasn't happened in 10 years which is remarkable in itself. I think he coaches with quite a bit of edge and chippiness. Maybe if he loses a little bit of that edge?? But you saw him today, did he look like he was losing his edge to you?
Yeah, I'll give you that one. Watched him in the Olympics, he's another one that has disciples, not players. Very impressive man.
Reminds me a bit Russ Rose who was doing a similar thing with women's volleyball but has tailed off the last 4 years or so.
You don’t mess with a potential 4x er
With all due respect!
You do know ISU was pretty darn good during Cael's 3 years and PSU not so much before Cael. But hey, don't let facts interfere with opinions. I suppose Cael will never beat the Brands boys either.
Since you cant give names, if it does happen, will it solidify (as in potential AA) the 33 spot?
