2018 Wrestling News

I saw Brian Murphy as a volunteer assistant coach.
Another solid wrestler to help train the young men in the gym.
I remember watching him wrestle for Michigan.

RU had an open practice in the bubble this morning and a wonderful tailgate outside the bubble held by the Ashnaults and wrestlers folks. The parents and families watched a vigorous practice and then enjoyed the interaction with everyone. Great food and company.
 
I'd be shocked if Ash isn't added to the staff after the season.


I think there are rules about that? If he wants to train with SKWC or the RTC can he be on the staff?

I am admittedly not well versed in this but I feel like I heard that.

Ash was never shy about wanting to be a wrestling coach. His senior year of HS he said as much.
 
Based on what we've heard, this is my best guess:

125: Aguilar or Meltzer
133: Suriano
141: M.Van Brill
149: Ashnault
157: JVB or Glasgow
165: JVB or Glasgow
174: Grello
184: Gravina(if healthy) or Pagano
197: Correnti
Heavy: Colucci

So the lineup seems pretty set except at 125 and 184. 157/165 - we know who it will be, just depends on the weights they wrestle.

If Suriano goes 125, that would obviously open 133.

Ah. I should have been more clear. I meant how many recruits can we take. Thank you for the response though, and I agree with your predictions.
 
We can take as many to fit the 30 man roster and if scholarship wrestlers getting $, as much money as we have left to give.
 
By my rough count, we have 5 Wrestlers in their last season (Senior or graduate students).
 
Robbie Howard of Bergen Catholic wins youth gold.... All the big guns will be after him.. Do we have chance?
 
My guess is Okie State. Does not want to follow in Suriano’s footsteps as he did at BC
 
I just have the sense that our recruiting will slowly become more national in scope. With a hopefully Top Ten finish, a beautiful new state of the art training facility, large crowds at every home match, very good academics, and the toughest conference in the country, this staff will have a lot to sell and they know how to do just that. You wait for the above quality N.J. recruit, but we may be moving on quickly in a lot of cases in the future to fill our roster from this larger talent pool. I expect at least 25% out of state student athletes within five years if not sooner.. Stay tuned and enjoy the ride. $$$$

POSTER ALERT

Make sure to grab your 2018-19 team poster & autographs from some of our guys at this Saturday's Homecoming game! We'll be outside of the North Gate from 11-11:30 a.m. #RelentlessPursuit | #GoRU


 
PS- The NCAA Championships are in Pittsburgh this March, Pittsburgh aka 'Steel City' thus the the 'Steel City' reference in on the poster, lol. In the pic are JVB, Ashnault, Suriano, and Gravina. I already checked hotel and VRBO prices for Pittsburgh for that weekend, prices are sky high.

Some interesting TV developments as PSU and tOSU have matches on ESPN2 (PSU vs ASU 12/14 & tOSU vs NCST 1/6). tOSU also has 4 matches on BTN and PSU has 2. I hope we get at least 2 or 3 on BTN and find out our TV schedule this week. Would be nice to get OKST on ESPN2.

We have 3 BTN matches: 1/6 MN, 1/18 Iowa, 2/17 UM. Surprised OKST isn't BTN or ESPN2.

With Flowrestling , for 12.50/ month , you get it all, plus Cliff Keen Tournament, NE Duals, not to mention the Southern Scuffle , the Ironman, Plus M and W Bb. And all the other colleges wrestling schedule as well .
For about $2 a month difference it’s a no brainer to subscribe to Flo, which carries so much more than BTN, plus every single BTN PLUS event.

I will be ordering Flo on Friday (Pay day).
I enjoyed watching flo the past year.
Worth the money, but I wish they would let you pay monthly.
It is hard for me to come up with the chunk of money (I know it is only 150$) during the holidays.
Can;t wait to watch the first match on Saturday.

Good stuff. Match vs UVU will end with the start of the Michigan game for football.
 
Bill, with Winston decommitting (as he has every right to do), do we have fear of losing Aragona? How solid does the Commit feel?
 
149 looks like a good weight to be a Scarlet Knight and train.
You have to assume that you will have time training with Ashnault and Glasgow.
Too very good workout partners.
Having Nick Suriano in the room has to help as well.

What is going on with tyree Sutton? I know he has 1 more year at junior college.
Is he still interested in Rutgers.
