Future PSU Lineup discussions

[Delcolion915]

You know what would be maybe the greatest moment in wrestling history?

We come in to Carver next year with ALL BACKUPS and beat them. 😂

And yes I am saying it is possible

Is it a given that Ryder won't be able to make 174 in 26? I read he didn't have to cut any weight for 79KG at worlds. Read he weighed in at 173.8. Granted, 2 years from that date he'd probably gain weight, but not a given. Is there any info on what he weighs now? I'm thinking 174 would be much tougher for Welsh, but what do I know.

 

[lockhavenlion3]

Given that redshirts can go unattached, we'd have a lineup like:

125 Desmond
133 Davis
141 Nagao
149 Perry
157 Duke
165 Sealey
174 Henckel
184 Rocco/Ryder loser
197 Mirasola
HWT I don't know, someone, I guess.

I'd bet that team would win Soldier Salute by a mile. LOL.

i think we should ask if ps can enter two teams in next year's nationals 😁 .

Have the team wear blue sweat shorts and white tee shirts mimicking gym class from the seventies. Have exercise bikes and jump ropes behind the benches. Don't treat it like a big match. Treat it like a practice. That would create a stir on HR.

I bet Ryder would rather battle it out with Welsh at 84 then Levi. BWDIK

Sorry, didnt pay attention to your first sentence.

That's actually a little trickier than winning Soldier Salute with a B team because some of these guys are going to be redshirting (i.e. Desmond, Perry, possibly Davis and/or one of Kasak/Duke). We can enter the red shirts in the Soldier Salute and not affect their eligibility, but not nationals.

Cochran could go heavy

 

[Foreverinbluejeans57]

Question… with the consensus being that Duke and Jayden James will get big, creating even more of a log jam at the upper weights. Who do we see taking over 149 and 157 after Kasak and SVN? Not sure there is an heir apparent at either

What about Penn State boosters allegedly paying to keep Alirez at NoCo so Iowa doesn’t get him?

 

[west2east]

Some on GIA have suggested the possibility of Arnold at 174, Kenndy down to 165 and for Cali to go 157. Some think this would be there best lineup and hopes for Cali to get a title. Not so sure a sucked down Cali could beat Kasak but would give him a better chance to win a title.

I think we see Duke 157 and Kasak take a RS. It's the only way to keep one of them from losing a year with Mitchell. 2026 157 Duke 165 Mitchell 2027 Kasak 157 Mitchell 165 and Duke takes RS 2028 157 Kasak 165 Duke

I am pretty sure I sent in a check to help pay for this. Wasn't there a call-a-thon or something?

Technically Duke could RS for 26 and Kasak for 27, no?

I think this is also possible
2026: Duke RS, Kasak 157, MM 165
2027: Duke 157, Kasak 165, MM 174
That way only one of the two has to take a redshirt, considering I doubt neither want to

Yes but I'm not sure Duke will hold 157 long

Mm is staying 165. There ain't no way he is going to 174 with out putting on some serious mass. Kasak already looks bigger than him, I'm guessing once Levi graduates either Rocco moves down or kasak moves up 2 to make room for Duke. I also do not know how big duke is he may be big for 157 too, he may even fill out more but it does look like he is maxed out as far as growth goes. How the hell would I know though I am not a doctor or growth specialist and I don't know any thing about duke at all except for he has black hair.

Refresh my memory on the competition dates for guys. Duke can have up to five competition dates because he is a true freshman and since Tyler has already wrestled two full seasons, if he takes the mat one time then he cannot red shirt, correct?

Tyler is winning 157 this year.

Then 2027 will figure itself out in its time.

wow...well that is a 4 in row title run - 49 thru 74!

Pre-Season, it's not unrealistic whasotever that we project 7 finalist. Only 149, 184 and Heavy are lower on the AA scale at this time IMO, and I am being generous excluding 149. Think about it.

Excluding 149 at all is really something else.

184 as well considering the last time our 184 wrestled, he was

I tend to agree with this unless the cut gets really difficult for him, which doesn't appear to be the case. MM should have Olympic aspirations and should want to stay around 74kg, I would think anyway.
