If I could bring in a healthy, proven top 15-20 184 pounder, I wouldn't keep that slot open for Edmund Ruth.
I don't know that it's an either/or situation, but I wouldn't trade four of Ruth's seasons for one of Harvey's.

let's not get too into this mercenary 1y grad students taking the spot of a guy we worked hard to recruit as a 3-4y starter because its a tiny upgrade for one season. Hurts recruiting long term. Its hard enough with no stipend money and tuition/room/board at 3-5x many other programs.

I might agree were it settled that it would be a "tiny upgrade". But at this point, do we know whether Ruth will even be wrestling for LU next season and, if so, whether he will be wrestling at 184 and, if so, whether his deficit vis-a-vis the grad student will be "tiny"?

Do we know at this point that Tanner Harvey is the least bit interested in Lehigh? Or that he'll be effective after a full year off? I wouldn't push Ruth out the door under any circumstances, but certainly not until those questions are answered. And I like Harvey.

Not to mention, 16-5 W/L record as a redshirt freshman is nothing to be sneezed at.

Gaige Garcia in portal at 197. Was LU on his original list of schools?

At some point Lehigh has to find a 197 lb. wrestler.

Lehigh football made him an offer on 2/21 (along with several other programs): https://twitter.com/gaigegarcia23?lang=en

Intermat #20 overall recruit in 2020. We could use him.

He was on both the wrestling and football rosters for Michigan.

Probably Todd DeGroat from the 2021-22 class will be at 197. PJ Casale the following year might aim for 197 as well.
