Ricky Lundell
I was just curious how a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu world champion "grappler" with no folk style wrestling experience (at least in high school) ends up on the roster. Is he seriously competing for a spot or is he just considered an attribute based on his other skills? -

Weatherman Preseason #3 at 152
Actually, I think it's too close to call: 125 Clark/Falck - Ad. Falck 133 Fanthorpe/Slaton - Ad. Slaton 141 Gallick/Tsirtsis or others - Ad. Gallick 149 Mueller/Metcalf Large Ad. - Metcalf 157 Sanderson/Morningstar Ad. - Sanderson 165 Reader/Covington - Ad. Reader 174 Burk or Carr/Borschel -... -

Weatherman Preseason #3 at 152
Considering he could have an immediate impact on the starting lineup (after a red-shirt year) as a heavier wrestler Weatherman would be nearly as good of an addition as Clark and Taylor. He is certainly a "blue chip" prospect. I gotta say though I heard from other Bomber friends his family has... -

"Pretty good" and #9 in the nation are very different. Reader's a proven D1 commodity (who physically dominated Covington last year). Being a JUCO Champ is impressive but I'll believe #9 when I see it (or don't). -

The Iowa match should come down to 141 and not giving up bonus pts @ 149, 174, or 184 (or possibly scoring an upset). My sources tell me that Dan Dennis is wrestling @ 141 and at this early point looks as good or better than LeClere or Tsirtsis. As far as our problems @ 174 I think we might...
