2023-2024 Recruits & Transfers

cywr89 · Apr 3, 2023

Creating a new thread based on this year’s cycle. The other thread has kind of gotten off the rails.

2024 HS Commitments:
133 Meza (AZ)
149/157 Naaktgeboren (IA)
197 Barlelt (FL)
285 Herrera (CA)

HS Interest:
125/133 Lilledahl (MO)…PSU
165 Angelo Ferrari (OK)

Top IA guys I hope we reach out to:
125 Christensen (Waukee)
141/149 Lucas Bruhl (Ankeny Centennial)

Potential Transfers (based on need):
157/165 - Messenbrink (Cal Baptist - 4 yrs)
174 - Shane Griffith (Stanford - 1 yr)
184 - Bernie Traux (Cal Poly - 1 yr)
285 - Andrew Davison (Northwestern - 1 yr) - Michigan
Yaraslau Slavikouski (Harvard - 1 yr) - Rutgers
Seth Nevills (PSU - 1 yr)
Boone McDermott (Rutgers - 1 yr)

Others top transfer (but don’t meet a need):
125 - Caleb Smith (App St - 2 yrs)
133 - Chris Cannon (Northwestern- 2 yrs)
165 - Izzak Olejnik (NIU - 1 yr)

Portal Unknown:
197 - Jakob Woodley (OK) - out of eligibility

Please add any names I missed and/or details you have on the above guys. There’s not too many impact transfers and I have only heard us being on Traux & McDermott list. With most of the top teams having their heavyweight I would expect us to be able to land a heavy with Davison being the jewel.

184 and 285 would seem to be the biggest needs for 2023-2024 season.

Hoping we can land a guy or two.

Woodley has no eligibility left from what I was told.

There's been good contact with Christensen from Waukee. Good interest on both sides.

Let me just say that in the next 2 weeks the transfer portal is going to get wild.

It’s going to get wild with us landing transfers or more people entering the portal or both?

Hopefully both. Depends on how much money you raise!!!

I did receive a nice ISU Wrestling t shirt with the walking Cy logo for my B12 & NCAA donation.

Come to Ames and train with Yonger, Sammy (assuming he sticks around), and Coleman (assuming he sticks around).

Pretty sure Hilger is done

Just saw that Magayna from Waterloo Columbus (probable next Iowa 4Xer) committed to NDSU...assuming we did not recruit him?

That was a great pickup for NDSU. Pretty sure UNI thought they had him

Um. Yeah. UNI thought it was a done deal, he'd told Schwab that he was coming.

He also transferred from Columbus to Waterloo East a couple weeks ago. There's something going on there.

Something going on there with the fact that them dakota schools are going to be a force moving forward.

I’d love to see Magayna at ISU but I guess I’d rather he be at NDSU than UNI.

Both are doing a really good job and it helps with the depth of the Big12. It’s definitely more enjoyable going to duals that are entertaining and the other team doesn’t just roll over.
