Guys don’t really hit many opens these days anyway. 2-3 opens and 2-3 duals to get to the 5. Opens are mostly a thing of the past.
I hope that’s not true. That’s how younger guys develop and gauge progress. It helps them make adjustments to their training, diet, weight cut, and preparation. It also does the exact same thing for veterans. The older guys don’t need to hit 5 tournaments but they still need a few.
Imagine the damage that lineup (minus two) could do in two years.
And we have a lot of guys to “figure it out” at 184 once Coleman is gone.Imagine the damage that lineup (minus two) could do in two years.
7/10 is good start. Ramazan or Noonan at 133, Kraisser 157 (according to coach) and if a freshman goes at 174 it will be Rojas.
Agree with this except I'm 50/50 on Rojas and Gaitan. Won't be surprised either way.
I think Gaitan is definitely the better wrestler. Might not be big enough for 74 is the only question.
I think I’d rather have guys get experience in duals vs two opens. Two attached opens and then 3 D1 duals sounds pretty good. Plus they could still hit another open or 2 in 2nd semester unattached if they want.
I am hoping one of the opens they save the attachment for is the Southern Scuffle
I hope Noonan and Kraisser end up being sneaky good… if only someone in the room now days could fill us in on how they are looking.
