He’ll have to go through Dake or Taylor. But, they’re all in the same room so he should have a good idea where he stands and how to close the gap between now and then.Big balls as he says. He is so confident and speaks his mind come what may. I know what he says but it will be hard to pass up a shot at 5 unless he wins gold and he’ll have to thru Burroughs for that right?
That’s probably why Cael brought Dake in. Nolf (Dake) and Starocci (Taylor) are their replacements for 2028. Wait your time grasshopper and learn from your graybeards.He’ll have to go through Dake or Taylor.

Sounds like he wants to be in MMF well before 28. 24 is his shot at the Olympics. If he doesn’t make it, then there’s a chance he’ll be back for #5.That’s probably why Cael brought Dake in. Nolf (Dake) and Starocci (Taylor) are their replacements for 2028. Wait your time grasshopper and learn from your graybeards.
So in the USA room are Gillman, RBY, NLee, Zain, Nolf, Dake, Taylor, Starocci, Brooks, McIntosh, Snyder, and Kerk.
Who am I missing?
I think he trains with Cruz out thereBe interesting to see if Carter joins Bo’s training gym in SC. I would guess RBY heads back to AZ but no real insight. Would love it if State College is able to have a stable of top flight MMA guys at multiple weights similar to NLWC
I think he said previously on flow he plans to go 74kg for Olympics. I wonder how tough of a cut that will be. Seems like a lotHe’ll have to go through Dake or Taylor. But, they’re all in the same room so he should have a good idea where he stands and how to close the gap between now and then.
I don’t think anyone should ever have to “wait their time”, he will be learning and trying to beat him. As will Nolf. And don’t count out Nolf. He is close IMO.That’s probably why Cael brought Dake in. Nolf (Dake) and Starocci (Taylor) are their replacements for 2028. Wait your time grasshopper and learn from your graybeards.

I don't really see any upside to going for 5. He'll only have done it because no one had the chance. Presumably Cael would have won 5, and any of the others might have also but they never got the chance. Huge downside though if you win the fourth but lose in the fifth. Nothing to gain IMO. Win your fourth and cement your legacyPlans were made to change. Let's take it one season (and the Olympic cycle) at a time and see what happens. While it may seem like a step backward in Carter's eyes, winning 5 NCAA Championships cements a wrestling legacy that will likely never be matched and that's got to appeal to his ego at some point.
Still hoping to see Carter on the mat for two more PSU seasons even if in a limited capacity.

Technically that is not true, every freshman that wrestled in Carter’s first year had the opportunity, he was just the only Feshman to win a NC that year.I don't really see any upside to going for 5.

I'd drop $100 just to see them wrestle each other.NIL is correct. Get Carter and Brooks a car…. at least!
Carter said at the PSWC banquet last year that he was looking at 4 not 5. I know things can change, but those words came directly from Carter.I don't really see any upside to going for 5.
