Re: Over-Coaching?

Maybe if ACC explodes as predicted by those on this forum with a couple wrestling programs leaving the EIWA becomes the remaining school home. Or they reach out to Lehigh/Army/Navy to be their 6th + schools to remain a qualifying league? Without that EIWA is a joke. EIWA is a survivor and in this e...

Re: Transfer portal

All true. Everything LUEngineer says. Oh, but if it were so when it comes to selling the uniqueness of the program. IMO, Pat and his staff do a great job with what they have. Truly remarkable in fact. Many have developed nicely. But not enough. But after seeing the list and understanding the Power ...

Re: Transfer portal

HFO...thank you for your post and a bit of nostalgia. I want to infuse a bit of optimism. I am very cautiously optimistic about the new President. He will not fulfill every requirement for everybody but he has already checked a lot of boxes IMO. The 46% acceptance # everyone alludes to was during C...

Re: Transfer portal

Go after Kyle Parco at 149/157 or not worth it? :lol: Is #3 guy good enough or should we see how the room develops? Parco was a wrestling club teammate of Bailey in California and I believe Bailey's dad was a coach there. I also believe Yozzo was connected to that club/family and that's how Bailey ...

Re: Transfer portal

Cornell is private and and Ivy and they are getting tons of top recruits? How are they doing it? That's a brave statement with some Lehigh alumni. You are going to get hit with that Cornell is quasi Private, because Cornell is the designated "Land-Grant University" for agriculture since t...

Re: Name, Image and Likeness

I'm taking this from the Transfer Portal thread for a moment. Based on the landscape given, in order to compete at the level the posters want to be at, we need to adopt the Gonzaga model. Gonzaga is a small private school (the size of Lehigh) which every year competes at the highest level on the bi...

Re: Transfer portal

There is some irony to this line of thought. We are all in agreement that our real strength was at the beginning and end of our lineup. We are also in agreement that the area of 165-184 was the real weakness. As to the latter, we had a 2X NJ State Champion, a 2X New York State Champion, a 2X PA Sta...
