Do you realize how closely Conner and Josh Barr match up? Conner is an elite talent too.
How many guys took down Aaron Brooks last year? You don't need an abacus.

I agree with you actually. I have a hard time wanting a heavy to com in over the Marrasola's. I am 100% ok with a solid AA/could potentially be a finalist. Let's see that magic of progression.
I am excited to see these two grow and compete for the blue and white NC or NQ they will improve and I want to see how much.
1)If they are so close, when will they decide which one has to drop to 184?🤨
2) Whats an abacus, isnt that a Genesis song?
I would think this has been discussed and everybody probably already has a pretty solid idea where ther are going to try and fit in next year.
Yes, when you have two colors of raspberries and are interested in developing a child's number sense through subitizing via 5 and 10 frames.
I think if Blaze sits it is because his best weight is 133 and that is where Ono wants to go. I could see that happening and Blaze take a RS to bulk up to 141/65kg. Will really depend on what weight Ono decides, everything will depend on him
He also beat Max Dean as a senior in hs
It means one more than Taylor got in 2 matches.
Thats not how I interpreted Ono himself saying, in the Flo interview, he would go anywhere from 33-57.
Yeah, I don't need an Abacus, when my eyes saw that exact matchup with JB and it was not close. At all! An 11-0 beat down I believe. I will admit it shocked me, I expected a very close match with Connor likely having the edge. The tourney was a Josh Barr coming out party.
That said Conner had not had the advantage of hardly any trading in our room yet, certainly not the full year + Josh had had at the time, so I am totally open to a significant closing of the gap. Granted the awesome Nov 2024 Josh Barr was a much lesser version of the March 2025 version that continues to get better as we speak.
If Conner takes out Josh next fall, I will be the first to raise my hand and boast both admiration for Conner and admit I was wrong, but I do not today see Connor challenging Barr for the 197 slot, and unfortunately am not a big believer in projecting him 13 lbs lighter and effective enough to take out Rocco at 184 either
I don't see it happening, but I do believe he is definitely a tier better than his brother and despite being a year behind in a good weight gain program, his best path to starting is most likely at heavyweight.
As for Max Dean vs Conner, Max peaked mentally IMO when he achieved his goal becoming a national champion. Not to mention a major mental lapse in the last 20 seconds that cost him the Marisola freestyle match. Check out Conner vs Sinclair.
Connor is a huge stud don't get me wrong, but his path to top 4 eliteness is still a definite work in progress.
I expect the gap to be closed. Do I expect Conner to actually beat Barr and take the spot? No, I definitely do not expect that after watching Barr last year, but it's not impossible, I guess, and their position battle will be one of the more interesting ones to follow because I don't think we saw the best of Conner in that matchup last year.
Crazy to think that 133/141 there are 2 all Americans, a world champion and Blaze whose accomplishments are too many to list. Talk about iron shapes iron. Crazy. That's one helluva two deep at both weights.
Best Lightweight Room in the Country TM.
I can hear the screams from GIA saying Blasphemy!
I wonder who penned the statement. I heard they took a vote on tHR.
Because it’s easier for you to digest it with literally zero invested into any of it besides being a fan compared to these kids who don’t want to waste a single second of eligibility considering they are AA type talents.
Not sure how you don’t understand this.
The fact you had no idea I was referring to Nagao and Davis tells me all I need to know about your comprehension level. Go back to playing with your crayons and let the adults discuss adult things.
"Second best light weight room in the country"...
