On top of that, I know Hughes has had his issues with making 133 but he doesn't not like massive for the weight to me.

This was my thought too. Would love to be proven wrong but I don’t think Hughes has the strength for 141 yet.

I also don’t think Jameson should be bumped up at least yet. He has had zero offense through 4 duals. If he shows more in the first and maybe second then gasses out I would be more tempted to say he need to bump but this weekend he spent 6 min (P1 both duals) circling and being pushed around. I have no reason to think that changes because he adds 7-8 pounds.

Fun weekend. Guys were scrappy. Love the relentless energy from several of the weights. Looking forward to seeing Hughes against higher competition.

I thought this Wyoming team was the most competitive team that Branch has fielded from top to bottom. Big strong wrestlers who mixed it up at most weights. Wyoming's past teams usually had 2-3 competitive wrestlers and the others were cannon fodder.

I was more than pleased. It was the same when Wyatt would throw in the leg.

He also went for a nice duck under I think twice which looked a lot like his brother.

This is the problem with top programs.
Right now you’ve got a least 1 weight with a logjam where both guys look more deserving of being on the mat than the guy starting at a different weight.

We’ve been seeing guys get chance after chance for years. In a competitive situation like this - which everyone wants and has signed up for - you have to perform to keep your spot.

I don't disagree at all. If the coaches made the move this early I get it.

I'm just not 100% sold we have to get Witcraft in the lineup yet. I would like to see him wrestle some real competition. He has looked good but he should against the two guys he has faced so far. Young, while he hasn't looked great, has had a much tougher schedule. Vasquez and Willochell are two guys who will should be at NCAAs. They aren't pushovers.

I'm not against benching Young. The coaches see these guys in practice every day. I trust them to make the right call. All I am saying is we are still dealing with an extremely small sample size.

On top of that, I know Hughes has had his issues with making 133 but he doesn't not like massive for the weight to me.

It "would" make sense for him to leave PA, if he honestly thinks its the best place for him to train and win folk/free medals.

That's where Iowa is missing - the no real RTC. But okstate and PSU do. I do think it will take a lot for Bo to not go to PSU, but him leaving PA is a real possibility. He LOVES Tom Ryan as well.

Honestly, I don't think he quite knows what he's going to choose. I know several things:

-It was a good visit that gave him more information to digest.
-Dee is on it and has a future in the sport just for his recruiting ability alone.
-He feels it is a place that is on the rise.
-PSU is at the mountain top.
-OSU is quite a significant distance from home.
