STAROCCI COMMITS!!!

Boom! Congrats Carter and family. Any idea where he projects weight wise? Is it possible he can make 74 initially or are he and Brooks going to be vying for the same slot?

I would think he’s here to compete for 174 after Marks gone.

Pretty sure Brooks is firm at 184 and I don’t see anyone in country beating him when he takes the mat except Zahid if he moves up. That’s how highly I think of Brooks
 
Possible future upper weight line-up
165- Joe Lee
174- Carter Starocci
184- Aaron Brooks
197- Michael Beard
Hwt- Seth Nevills

Looks pretty nice if you ask me. Who is in the pipeline for 157 after Nolf? I love Ferrari and Amos but I think Beard is an absolute hammer. Really happy we got Starocci. Fits a need and by all accounts he is a great kid who fits this program well. Fun times to be a PSU fan!
 
Just answered my own question. I’m assuming Berge will go up to 157 after this year. Still a possible area of need in the next few years. Younger Manville?

Berge will go to 157 next year
 
We'll get at least one of these three to help complete that mid-lineup puzzle:
Bartlett, Sauders, Hillegas, .....

and I still think Howard and Ferrari are long shots due to who is already in the stable.
 
Awesome! Had a feeling this would happen with the way he's been interacting with the psu guys on social media
 
Joe Lee is training at the NLWC. I also think his family has moved to State College. He is greyshirting, which means he enrolls in 2019. Probably redshirts and then takes over 165 after Cenzo finishes a four timer!!

Fellas, there are no holes in this lineup now... or for years to come. Life is very good!

As the Terrance Mann character said in the movie Field of Dreams, 'Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come'

Welcome Carter!

WORLD DOMINATION :)
 
How does that upperweight lineup look compared to OSU and Iowa?

Both teams ( assuming OSU means Ohio State ) have very solid guys on the team and coming in. Don't forget Oklahoma State either. It is going to be fun to watch !!
 
Penn State:
Lee - Starocci - Brooks - Beard - Snacks

Ohio State:
Romero - Kharchla - Smith - Hoffman - Kerkvliet
If Kharchla can go 184, they might put Mattox or Rocky Jordan at 165 and bump Romero to 174.

Iowa:
Marinelli - ?? - Assad - Warner - Cassioppi
No upper weight commits on the horizon -- maybe they put Brands at 165 and bump Marinelli to 174.

the intranet wars remain with Iowa, but tO$U remains the "real" long term threat.

Lugo and DeSanto will not be what HR thinks, and yet Darth Ryan keeps increasing the dark side of the force.

As for Ok state, well they are what they are.

If I was taking odds...the odds are increasing that Spencer Lee never sees a team title.

With the recruits that PSU and Ohio State have coming in.....there is small likelyhood either has any dead weights in the near future. But looking at what Iowa has coming in as well as Ok.State…..they are going to have minimal dead weights as well. All four schools have their own studs and a strong line-up top to bottom. With PSU having so many Grayshirts this year.....there is not a lot of room at the inn for some of the great recruits out there....ie…..Ferrari, Amos, Facundo etc. Some of those are going to end up at one of these 3 schools. I think all four schools have reason for optimism...…..I am optimistic that the Blue and White will be at the top most years.
