What's a GAI?

The letters were confused. GIA for Gallagher Iba Arena.

The letters were confused. GIA for Gallagher Iba Arena.

I know of GIA was asking of GAI. I looked it up, appears the poster may be a cheerful gay French binary person.

So what is the current projected lineup?

So what is the current projected lineup?

125: Spratley
133: Richie Figs
141: Jamison/Hughes
149: Swiderski
157: Jamison/Travis/Robideau
165: Lockett
174: Facundo
184: Ryder
197: Merrill
HWT: Doucet

I think the ideal lineup has Hughes at 141 and Jamison at 157 but that’s just my opinion.

^
With maybe an outside chance Vega beats Hughes at 141 if Jamison goes 157.

I’d really like to see Hughes win that spot and have an outstanding year.

It’s so nice to have so many quality options.

Is there no chance that Swiderski goes 157?

 

[JAY45]

Is there no chance that Swiderski goes 157?

He’s on record as saying he’s at 149.

 

[cowboyfan05]

He’s on record as saying he’s at 149.

Link?

 

[pokes_fan00]

What about if Tagen beats him out for the 149 spot?

 

[JAY45]

What about if Tagen beats him out for the 149 spot?

Doesn’t change what Swiderski rolled out as the plan that was articulated to him, according to him.

Did Swiderski say this publicly somewhere?

Did Swiderski say this publicly somewhere?

Yes, in a podcast. Link is somewhere in this thread.

 

[AZ poke]

Swiderski says the plan is for Jamison to stay at 141 and Swiderski to go at 149. But you know what they say about best laid plans.

Swiderski says the plan is for Jamison to stay at 141 and Swiderski to go at 149. But you know what they say about best laid plans.

Sure. What we are talking about here is the news page vs. the editorial page.

We can have fun and speculate all we want, and the possibility of Jamison winning the weight at 149 certainly exists.

Not says Swiderski is right or wrong, it’s just information to enter into the conversation that has value over guessing.

Found the Swiderski podcast and just listened to it. Interviewed on the Michigan Grappler podcast, published 4/4/25.

Swiderski's quotes about weight class:

• "I could go 41/49/57, whatever it is. 149 is my favorite, [where] I feel the best."
• "It's good for our team, too, because I think Tagen with his style and his strength, his best bet is at 41 and I think he knows that. So yeah 149, that's where I plan on being for a while I guess."

Other highlights from the episode:

• Says he didn't consider any destination except OSU; entered the portal as do not contact.
• Wanted to be with DT; says he has similar attacks as DT such as the ankle pick.
• Wanted to be in a place where he felt he could compete for championships.
• Was planning to redshirt last year until they needed a 141 guy and he was trying to be a team player and help out. Got hurt in a ranking match.
• On his health: "I'm about 80%, 85% maybe."
• Got surgery in November and the plan is to be able to go live beginning of May.
• Feels he could wrestle the U23 circuit, but doesn't necessarily have to. Will discuss with coaches.
• Feels he has the ability to win national titles and is confident being in the hands of the Magic Man.
• Loves being in Stillwater.
• Pumped for the National Duals.
• Planning some turkey hunts with Spratley; will film and post them.
• Has 'Cowboy Casey' shirts for sale as part of a NIL deal with the podcast.

Thanks for this! Can't always take the time to listen to a podcast, so the summaries are nice.

So it sounds like Swiderski wants Tagen to go 141, but it's not necessarily the coaches' or Tagen's plan. TBD!
