Several that could help us ---- but most are coming from state schools with in-state tuition. How do they justify the increased tuition expense?

Finesilver would be a great addition plus his family has money.

One who isn't in the portal is Zach Hartman of Bucknell. He's wrestled four years there, should have one year remaining, and he was honored on Bucknell's Senior Day. I'm wondering where he'll wind up.

Mostly state schools? Half the schools on that list probably have Lehigh as a safety school.

10 of the 13 listed are state schools. Isn't 77% enough to be referred to as "mostly?"

It wasn't about the school's academics- he specifically mentioned tuition.

When was the last time LU brought in a transfer who had a very good season with the team? Since I've been following the team I can think of Peppelman & Martinez - both who did ok but nothing to write home about - and the kid from Stanford who never wrestled a bout for the team.

Used to be quite common, but you're right, not much since the landscape has changed to what we're dealing with now. Still have to aggressively pursue it and I believe the staff is.
