Next Years Lineup

[SlickWillie2018]

Speaking of Ferraris sticking together. Thought the AJ bridge had been burned, but Willie doesn’t usually say things that he’s not confident about

Jax wil still be in high school next year.

Yeah

 

[chasepollard]

Angelo is not leaving Iowa and he has never indicated it’s an option. And, for the very very small chance he did then, be prepared to take his brothers with him. He is in a very good place and it’s all wishful thinking .

This is a message board, a large portion of the words typed here are wishful thinking.

I think the optics of Arnold being at his weight create this discussion, but I am with you. I don't think he goes anywhere.

Gabe also certed at 174 and then decided to stay at 184. Cutting down and not winning the spot and going back up was something he didn't want to do obviously. I think we see him at 79kg (174) this summer for freestyle

Angelo is not leaving Iowa

Only the sith deal in absolutes.

But ya no one was thinking it’s happening. Just a what if message board scenario.

Do they bring Anthony over too?

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

Negative.

He actually wrestles tonight he has a tough one Mosher from Hofstra is ok he's 11-8 and has a win against #17 Mayfield NW . And Anthony isn't a big 165 by any means

Sounds like someone is hitting the Budweiser today . I sense some deleted tweets 🤣

 

[Harleycowboy]

I think it comes down to what the rest of the team looks like. With a roster like Harley put together with no transfers Dee should absolutely redshirt. If we get a couple hammers at the weights I mentioned but have 165 open I think he wrestles.

I think Dee is a difference maker possibly winning multiple National Championships. Most wrestlers you can replace as our recruiting grows but Lockett is rare and so you do not want to waste a year of his eligibility with no chance for the team to do well.

We have a better chance of seeing AJ at ISU then we do at Iowa 😉

Scanning through recent comments, I'll give my 2 cents on a few things.....

We dont want Gabe Arnold.... probably a good kid bit Ive heard theres some real mental/ emotional issues there.

We won't get him I'm thinking but Angelo Ferrari will be a 4x finalist and if we did have a shot we should go all in. Could you imagine a lineup that goes Dee, Angelo, Cody, Dreshaun?

Carter will be back next year. As far as line up? I think Carter needs to go 141. He'd be stronger there and let Tagen go 149. Carter isnt pulling much at all. As far as Cael, Ive been told repeatedly he has less of a weight cut then Tagen, but just doesnt want to cut weight. Problem is, he needs to get stronger also if he were to think about 141. So we will just have to see how it all plays out.

Theres been debate about whether DT will go to the portal much and I can tell you still that if the the NIL money is there he absolutely will. Who or what weights he goes after we can make solid educated guesses. But we have to remember, he's David MF Taylor! There will be guys willing to leave their current program to wrestle for him that would otherwise just stay where theyre at. So we may see a stud or two come in that we had no clue was in the picture just because of that or someone come in at a weight we thought was pretty solid already.

This guy knows his sh!t lol

Agreed. A RS year and there is just no telling what kind of a monster he becomes.

Dee doesn't need a RS. He ready.

My opinion is if he can be 165 go right away. If he's wanting to go 174 maybe RS him

That kid has spent more hours in an RTC than any kid ever, in the history of RTCs. He's more than ready. Even if it is at 174.

But I do agree he's ready to win and challenge at 165. Only guy with the athleticism to challenge Mesenbrink.

Lockett is going to make a run at the Senior World team. 74 is an absolute wasteland now.

And that's exactly why he's a 165 and not a 174. If you don't RS a talent like him you gotta feel confident he can win a title in year 1. My opinion is he would be giving up some size at 174 and using a RS would probably make more sense if he thinks he's a 174

Love Lockett. No one I enjoy watching more, but if he is going to compete with Mesenbrink, he'll have to vastly improve his conditioning.

You don't have to run a mile to make 100 feet.

He pins his way through the season never getting to the 3rd period.

Dee isn't a big pinner. Now I might've believed your joke had you said tech his way thru

That's like running 2 miles...

Imo get transfers to let guys RS. In two years you have Dee, Robideau, Vega, Ramirez, Routledge, Jax and Ross with 4 years eligibility. I’m sure we will get another stud or two either straight up recruiting or flips. Skys the limit. Those guys will be the base for the DT era. You will also still have Spratley and Jamison to help lead the way. Merrill will have 3 years eligibility.

I can almost taste it 😎

I am just a big fan of RS'ing guys anyway. That one year of brain power supersedes almost any level of horsepower, but the horsepower almost always improves also.

In 2 years Penn st has
Luke Davis Blaze van Ness Duke mesenbrink Haines Ryder Barr Mirasola will still have Kasak as well. I'm not sure Cael loses again before he retires
