3 high schoolers still alive in 57 kg Consolation side. Pretty amazing level of talent for all 3 of these young men. The guys they have beat are impressive for high school juniors.

Not the only high schooler to get a win. There is some serious talent in Class of 2025 and Class of 2026 and as of now they are NOT coming to Lehigh.

Even with their disappointing showing at the Nationals, LU was the top finisher among private universities. And only Stanford among the privates finished on a comparable level. We can slice the pie even further that we are #1 of a fully private university in the East. Don't think it is the best sel...

Crookham will be pre-season #1 Beard #4 Taylor#5 Cornell placed 2nd with this configuration. I’m bullish on Beard. He was not at Brooks or Hidlay levels but he can compete with all the others to win it all. He made strides this year and needs to stay healthy for his final year. Taylor is ready to s...

What Lehigh needs and what they can get are not the same. We may need a grad transfer, but guys like Tate Samuelson (ranked top 15-20) that can come in and help are scarce. Offering a grad program as the primary draw is not what the elites are looking for. Understanding this will be helpful and mit...

I had never thought of this is a states rights issue. Who knew? It appears that a Pandora's Box has been opened up by the Supreme Court that will drag us back to the Articles of Confederation. Nothing new since Federalist Papers. States have every right to govern within their borders. We are a cons...

>>>>>Bringing in a grad transfer, or any transfer, does not mean the guy will automatically become the starter. Maybe Wilt continues to improve or Caden and Davis can successfully cut to 184. We know we have lineup issues at 165/174/184———maybe the current guys plus recruits get healthy, improve an...

When you've got young guys with potential at the weight, absent unusual circumstances I don't think you should recruit guys unless they're ranked at least #15-20. OK 165 #62 Dubler 174 #98 Brancato 184 #73 Wilt Having been in training business of orthopedic surgeons. Let's say through coaching and ...

Same age as Pat Santoro 58. Smith 100–5 at Sr. Level. Amazing!
He most definitely is a legend and still quite young. Wonder if Okie State will have him doing something within Athletics Department. If not, he will get plenty of appearance fees for media and coaching clinics.

Best grad transfers still available. Any 2 would be a positive addition to the room and potential to start. The 165ers could go either 165 or 174. We still definitely need an upgrade at 165, 174, 184. Less so at 149 or 157 where it is about a wash in talent level. 149 #27 WS Jaivon Jones Northern I...
