seems like similarities between Wittlake and Manville

both guys powerfully built, excell in Greco as well as folk/free...perhaps not as wide open offensively as we like, but that leaves room to improve under staffs guidance

I see what you're trying to compare, but completely different wrestlers. Wittlake is taller and leaner for his weight and built differently. Despite his Greco game, I actually thought he wrestled a more finesse match than a brute at WNO. Mason is straight put your head down, wear you down and plow through you. IMO, Mason's best comparison to a recent PSU wrestler is Matt Brown. Not a bad comparison if you ask me.

Wittlake was interesting to watch pre-match on Sunday. He looks to be a super-athletic guy - very agile and flexible with great balance. I have to believe with proper coaching he has tremendous upside.

God, I hope not. I certainly don't see it.

Agree with this, Wittlake seems all finesse, smooth ankle picks and carefully set up go-behinds, where Manville is all about heavy hands and pain delivery.
