Agree with Justafan assessment of best use of funds & trust Pat who now has some tools he did not have.

Those are both great prospects & 3 years with Rogers would be nice. 2 Idaho kids coming in at same time would be ironic with Skellenger.

I believe Stanich will be a force at 141. He cut an unbelievable amount of weight last season from above 141 & he is growing. It is only a question of strength not talent that could hamper him. But this is a focused kid that is hungry to wrestle. He & Crookham are the Caruso/Peritore of our ...

The unanticipated benefit of NIL is that Lehigh does not control this entity. That is why it can be wrestling only vs having to deal with Title 9 kind of stuff. Same with Hotel as no one can tell us we have to do every sport at Lehigh. We are Wrestling focused & so now we have a chance collectiv...

Pat hasn’t had NIL in his tool chest until a few weeks ago so my point is we won’t be the highest $ bidders but we at least are in the game. The highest bidder type NIL guy is not our guy IMO & I believe the opinion of the coaches & staff & wrestlers on the current team. It’s still about...

We don’t want the NIL only guys & will succeed without them.

There are enough others looking for a Lehigh type unique experience.

Best option is prepare Hines to bulk up for 149 & let Stanich jump into 141 next year assuming he can beat Bailey.

Bragnola likely to redshirt so 157 could be a 1 year need. Any of your 1 year grad AS potentials fit there.

No need to bring in a 141 transfer as we are loaded at that weight.

Lehigh is poised to return to the Top 10 next year in Philly if things fall into place. The exciting part about this past year was the emergence of 2 freshman AA’s as I have previously pointed out. The last time we had frosh 2 AA’s was in 2003 or over 20 years ago with Letters/Zinck I believe. Corre...

I think you all can rest assured that our coaches are very engaged in the portal weighing all factors in pursuing the right candidates that can get us back in the Top 10 vs Top 20 at NCAA’s. All are aligned on that goal!!’

So suggest all relax & see where it shakes out in a couple months.

Agree with the tear gas comment.

All of those kids should be expelled & they can finish their degrees elsewhere if the Board of Trustees had their heads on straight.

You are kidding yourself to think the new EIWA is an anywhere near the ACC in quality. Other than Lehigh, how many AA’s did the new EIWA have this year?

Recruiting will be a lot tougher as part of a weak league.
