Franklin to Iowa
- Thread starter BrockBronson
- Start date
Good wrestler. Wish him well. Not sure where he would fit in. Beard has 4 years left .
Franklin is tough, but wouldn't significantly impact the Nits lineup anytime soon. I would project him as a solid college level wrestler, but low on the medal stand on a good year.
lol, I didn’t think it was that Franklin, and I figured this was the coaching carousel dumpster fire du jour.
Has anything been announced regarding TJ Stewart’s choice? Perhaps that played into Franklins decision?
Is this a surprise? I recall a couple posts on this board that Franklin liked PSU, but have no idea about their veracity.
I recall people saying he really liked PSU. I know someone, maybe Mineo or Willie posted on twitter PSU was his dream school.
We'll take him! Welcome Kolby. Keeping that pipeline going 
I'm thankful David Taylor showed him all the things at M2. I'm sure Kolby will make him proud😉

Gavin has done a really good job of it lately.
Looking at their roster/incoming recruits, PA state champs: Jake Wentzel (2x), Micky Phillippi (3x), Cole Matthews (2x), Brock McMillen (3x), Dan Mancini, Jared McGill, Luca Augustine, Briar Priest, Dayton Pitzer (2x)
PA state finalists: Nino Bonaccorsi (2x), Gage Curry, Jake Slinger, Ryan Michaels, Kolby Flank, Colton Camacho, Ethan Finch, Mac Stout
Their recruiting has dramatically stepped up since Gavin took over.
Last post! I excited to see this post. I thought perhaps it was a misdirected bit of news from the football world.
I could be way off base but Kolby suddenly committing to Iowa kind of has a "Thomas Haines" type feel to it. If I were to guess, PSU didnt make him as much of a priority that he may have anticipated with the current roster situation and all. I wouldnt be surprised to see PSU grab a 184 in next years class if Aaron plans on bumping up or even a 197 two years out if he doesn't.
Something he NEVER heard on hr lmfaoYou might be onto something
And you probably know the 184 im thinking of. LolYou might be onto something
Perhaps. But apparently PSU liked Franklin enough to invite him to visit campus for a recruiting weekend aa few weeks ago.
Oh dont be mistaken, I'm sure Cael would have loved to have had him... would also bet he offered up but doubt it would have been much at all with the current structure of the roster. I'm projecting here but I think Kolby was also aware Cael may be placing a higher priority on a couple other guys.. in fact, I think we see a commitment from someone soon. But yeah.. like I said in my last post, I'm spitballin' here so could be totally wrong on this.
“Im sure”
“BET he offered up”
“DOUBT it would”
”Im PROJECTING here”
“in FACT..i THINK”
”im SPITBALLING”
Hey the wife needs help picking out a new paint color for the Ragdoll room, any suggestions?
So you think Cael offered up top recruit type money to a kid that will already have not one but possibly 2 AAs (one a national champion) at his weight? I knew you were dumb Turk but come on now...
Why are you telling me what I think again? The only thing I've sayed is welcome Kolby! And thanks M2 for training him up a bit

They liked Thomas Haines enough to offer him a partial, right up until they didn't.

They sure made a big deal about it out here like they stole one from us. I figured with him being close to SC he knew what was in the room at Penn State and chose accordingly.
