Let's be honest, a lot of people wrote him off before the season started due to his lackluster redshirt season. He's turned up another level this year. Excited for his future...

Nic's been fantastic, that RS year and last off-season did wonders for him. He keeps getting better every time he steps on the mat, can't ask for much more than that. Excited to see what he can do for the next 3.5 years.

Gotta give props to the guy that was comparing Nico to Darian Cruz early in the season lolzLet's be honest, a lot of people wrote him off before the season started due to his lackluster redshirt season. He's turned up another level this year. Excited for his future...
Ha. You’re welcome. Aguilar is doing great. He is still going to get muscled around by a few of the top guys/bigger 125lbers this year but another year of strength training and wrestling with Tyler Graff and the sky is the limit. Also, Aguilar wrestles a completely different style than Cruz. Cruz keeps such solid position and is tough to score on. Aguilar takes way more risks. I prefer Aguilar’s style but Cruz was more college ready right away.Gotta give props to the guy that was comparing Nico to Darian Cruz early in the season lolz

I was really high on Janzer coming in, somewhat high on Aguilar (if only because he wasn’t Metzler)
I think his #10 ranking is way too high but still really happy about how he’s looked. I don’t think the true #10 wrestler gets tech’s by a guy 6 spots higher but that’s just me. I know Glory is legit but still, gotta put up a better fight.
Should make it to NCAAs and it would be really cool if he can challenge for AA status. I think he comes up a bit short this year but will be able to pull it off once or twice in his career.
Piccininni is there so it's a top 4. Rivera would make it a top 5 and then big drop off, if he goes 25, but I think he's going 33.I know it's not your point but at 125 it's really only Lee, Mueller, and Glory...there is substantial drop-off after those guys. They are on their own level. There isn't much separating everyone else from 4-20, they can all beat each other at any given point IMO.
Piccinini is tough, was rankes #2 got beat by Glory last week

Sorry if I missed it somewhere else, but there was a little speculation that Suriano would come back in the spring, and possibly at 125. I'm assuming 133 now, if he does?
I guess it depends on how brutal of a cut 125 is for him. He looks big even for a 133.
Ouch potential NCAA qualifiers Aguilar or Alvarez would loose their starting spots.

I agree he looked big at 133, but it was a great weight for him, in my view.I guess it depends on how brutal of a cut 125 is for him. He looks big even for a 133.
