Too early, the squad can go through lot of changes (Both Ours and UNI) through graduation, recruiting and portal. Will be easier after 1 month.
Big12 Tournament
- Thread starter Chasingthirty-five
- Start date
OK State just won their first Big 12 Championship since tying with Oklahoma in 2021 and now a lot of you are looking for all the negatives of the Big 12 team championship. You have a first-year coach with wrestlers who have done nothing but improve all year, some I would say overachieved. And you have some of the best recruits out there coming in over the next two years. Tell me again, what the problem is? Spratley slipped and wrestled better against Jett than he did last time. Happel is Jamison's kryptonite but gets closer each time. O'Toole is only a 4x AA, 2x National Champ, Hamiti gets him if they see each other again. Keck 4x AA, 1x National Champ and is just the better wrestler than Plott. Surber has surprised everyone this year and is still having a great season. Wyatt won it beating a 4x AA. This team is going to be fine, and the future teams have a very bright future! Great job OK State and to those of you looking at the positives!
Fair. But you get what I mean. Size disadvantage was not the problem… excepting that ginormous strickenbergerSchultz is smaller than Hendrickson? Interesting.
Troy is not a small 25, but he is likely a 4 yr 25. He’s not huge, but he’s far from Small. Strickenberger is a HUGE 25.
Tagen is a huge 41.
DJ spent 3 years at 65.
Plott spent 3 years at 74
Surber spent 2 at heavyweight.
Size isn’t a problem.
speak for yourself. Must be nice being you
How does Northern Iowa and Northern Colorado etc keep their big name guys? I figured bigger schools would steal them with more money.
I also said a couple years ago that while I can’t stand Schwab the dude can coach and deserves a big name job. I recall saying that when they beat us in Stillwater a few years ago.

I think there are far fewer “big money” schools with boosters willing to reach out to these guys in than there are in other sports. And I think outside of 4-5 programs, the NIL is all roughly the same.
