Hildebrandt News!!!
- Thread starter NittanyChris
- Start date
This nugget appears more concrete than watching Brantt change his mind every other day on 247. LMFAO.
Creepy.
Also Mineo should have redacted the email address.
Also Mineo should have redacted the email address.
The directory is a public website--what I don't understand is how hard they must make it to redact your info on it. Seems like it should be in front of everyone as a choice at registration.

I already emailed him to ask when he joins the team. Will let you know what I hear.
Mineo took a screenshot. It would've taken approximately 30 more seconds to put that image on PPT or the like, draw black boxes over the email addresses, and save the image.
Same for anyone else who posts the directory info.
This is also partly on PSU. Lots of colleges today require login to access the directory. As does the Penn State Alumni Association.
I hope his sister is coming too and we are building the best women’s club in the world too. Insert 2 birds and 1 stone.
The information shown in Mineos tweet is the basic/standard option. Students at the school have the option to show more information like phone number and address at Penn state for that given year.
That was my point--it's PSU that makes that information public. Seems pretty backwards if you ask me. Opting out isn't a checbox on a form either:
Penn State, bassackwards? Shocking.
Woke up from a nice evening nap to this news. Don’t need to tell you guys how big it could be in a what should be a tight title race.
Stomping on the headline, boys. If Hildebrandt is our 125, and everyone stays healthy (knock on wood 3x), it’s a whole new ballgame. I think it takes PSU from slight underdog to slight favorite to win it all.
Here's Drew riding the snot out of a B1G foe, seems to like the double-boots, but also can maybe turn w/ them.
Willie gave his Crystal Ball prediction, so I won't go thru weight-by-weight.
Rather will re-package what I said in the other thread:
- Last year PSU lost to Iowa by 15.5 pts
- Hildebrandt was +11 pts over Howard
- Willie predicts Bartlett 3rd --> +13.5 pts (that's what last year's 3rd scored)
--> PSU would've outscored Iowa by 9 pts
Caveats:
- Hildebrandt likely won't finish 4th again, with Glory and Arujau returning.
- No way Kerk finishes 7th again -- that would offset Hildebrandt scoring less.
- Can't count on Marinelli getting injured at nationals again. Last year he scored only 4 pts. If he reaches the finals, that's a problem for us.
- Risky to assume all 4 champs will successfully defend their titles. (Hopefully they do!) Each 2nd place costs us 4 pts.
--> We will need Joe Lee to at least match Berge last year, and need more points from 165 and 197.
Bottom line: national title is very feasible, but not a given. Chris' "slight favorite" comment above seems about right.

My first thought was “How could Mineo be so thoughtless to post a student’s email like that?” I’ve settled on him just being really, really dumb.
just finished WK 2 Crystal Ball. it has PSU by 12 (143-131) rn.
that said, a lot of moving parts. and i had a good idea Hildebrandt was going to PSU so i already had his pts in.
i was / am bullish on Bartlett and Joe Lee. but i also hav RBY 2nd and Beard 8th.
for Iowa I probably have Murin and Young at their floor but am bullish on Assad (6th).
all in all, it looks like there's real intrigue in the team race this year. more so than last year. and i don't see any other school approaching triple digits.

Loved your tidibt on the show yesterday when you said Iowa fans claimed you have Bartlett doing too well "What do young studs do under Cael? They improve" and PSU overachieving "HAVE YOU WATCHED THE LAST 10 YEARS!?"
Willie would know the most about the guys he recruited here.
Good stuff. By the way “fired up Corby” is best Corby.
So about Drew ... he seems like a kid who improves every year. Quick WrestleStat lookup shows:
18-18 FR (didn't qualify for nationals)
20-10 SO (qualified as 13 seed, 1-2)
31-3 JR (qualified as a 6 seed, no tournament)
14-2 SR (qualified as a 4 seed, placed 4th)
Seems to have a nice frame to learn some leg attacks he didn't have before and will now be scrapping with Thomas Gilman and RBY daily ....

I'll say it. Hildebrandt is more valuable to us than Dean or Wick. I am pleased! 125 is no joke, top 8 would be great.
Great pickup. Solid, tough wrestler with a lot of length. He'll likely benefit from partners who can scramble and round out his game.
3 Indiana starters. Who’s the real recruiter on the board? @Hoosier Lion or @smalls103 ?
Not as locked in as Kerk, but I expect more at 97. More bonus, higher finish, etc. While winning 4 will be tough, I also expect more bonus points from those 4. I think it’s going to come down to Penn State and the bonus situation.
"125 is a huge revolving door at Penn State. I expect another transfer soonish. I have no source, just observing the previous pattern Cael runs with at 125. May the best man win!"
@smalls103 Look, another fresh face at 125 coming to try and score more points at nationals. Soonish was 6 months. A little longer than I expected.
If I would have said, "I expect a transfer soonish" instead of "I expect another" would you have gotten so bothered early on in your favorite thread? Meh, doesn't really matter now does it.
As far as Drew goes he is a solid pickup. No Suriano, but he will get you some points that weren't there this morning. I watched some of his matches on Flo earlier. That late takedown on Teske in the quarters last March was slick. Caught him napping and again in OT. He was right there with McKee aswell, and had nice win over Latona who previously beat McKee in the tournament. Getting bonus points will be a challenge for him but maybe he can snag some after rolling with Gilman and RBY enough.
It should be quite the team battle at nationals now. Loaded lineups across the board. Cross your fingers they all stay healthy and ready to go. I hope Marinelli and 184 can neutralize the point difference Drew and a healthy Kerk will bring. We shall see!

If he is in the directory, why no announcement..commitment yet? Assume it’s a definite…but why nothing official?
He’s enrolled in World Campus (online) right now. My guess is, he’s building credits while working on admissions to the grad program of his choosing.
Jeez guys. So what if he published the email. NO one is going to stop over to his house (Hildetbrandt) and egg it or throw rocks thru the wind, just because they know his email address. NO one is going to email him at 3 in the morning and wake him up with a prank email. And, he can just send any messages he doesn't like to spam or trash and not have to deal with it, by simply pushing a button. Not that big of deal!!
Michigan now sounding like the favorite for Suriano coming out of nowhere. He goes 133. They could make a run at the title as well. If he does end up at there that would be a crazy too three with psu, iowa, mich. Any of those three could easily win a title any other year.
