Re: Week-End Salvo: Special Early East Coast Edition

No offense, but a lot of things would be interesting. I'd leave current athletes out of this. Your last sentence answered your own question.

Re: Week-End Salvo: Special Early East Coast Edition

LUEngineer: 10 is not enough. If the room isn’t ‘quality’ deep then the next elite kid won’t sign. Yes, eventually only 5 are needed for a top 10 finish but the real world math says you need 20 to produce those 5. Look at other elite rosters.

Week-End Salvo: Special Early East Coast Edition

NIL. Not quite a 4-letter word, but it should be. A vile, corrupt, illegitimate vehicle to bring professionalism to college athletics. Profane indeed. D1 college athletics are in total disarray. Conference realignment that makes no sense and de-emphasizes natural regional rivalries that fans want. D...

Re: Women's Varsity Wrestling.

Hope the women do well and glad to see LU is being aggressive in pursuit of recruits. Jimenez is #1 P4P in the country -- wow! And holding a bout either at halftime, or prior to the start of the dual (which would have to be a half hour before the start of the Men due to TV schedules, is a good way t...

Re: Rylan Rogers

BTW, no one is advocating RRogers drop to 174. Merely reporting what was said. It’s interesting information and not intended otherwise.

IF he can handle it, it fills a need. Still like the development of Schoppe as a viable option as well.

Re: Rylan Rogers

I agree. But many upper weights in high school either don’t cut much or wrestle up. RRogers doesn’t appear very tall, so body type wise it may be doable. If Logan could get to 165 after winning his last state title was at 182, it’s not like we haven’t seen this recently. That was 6 years later. We’l...

Re: Rylan Rogers

I don't think so in this case. Word is he's trying for 174. Pretty solid source. Don't ask.

Re: Rylan Rogers

mookie has a knack for knowing stuff like this. They wouldn't go to the trouble of bringing him in if he didn't have a place in the line-up. Whether it's 174 or 184, either one works for Lehigh. If either CRogers or JTDavis can man 184 and take that next step, then the line-up is taking shape, isn't...

Re: No Juice

mookie loves Lehigh wrestling....local guy, grew up with it....his level of passion is hard for many to understand.
Does it come across as negative at times? Yeah, but always from a place where he wants LU to be the best. Enough for me to give him the benefit of the doubt even when we disagree.

Re: No Juice

>>>>>> I welcome mookster back from his self imposed siesta. He can post whatever floats his boat. But it’s obvious that the overwhelming majority of his posts are negative and he suffers from some form of cu envy. I enjoy watching Lehigh wrestlers compete at the elite college level———and I definit...
