Local Ohio article about him and his commitment:
http://www.chroniclet.com/The-Mat-R...ill-continue-wrestling-acreer-at-Rutgers.html

Article says he is looking at 125 at the beginning. He may outgrow that his senior year in high school and end up at 133.

Excellent news. Is this a kid who can come in and compete immediately?

He may red-shirt, but I would expect him to be a 4-year starter type kid.

Nice. Read the article and his coach seems to think he will stay around the same weight in college. Do lower weight guys generally have an easier time adjusting to the college level?

As a general proposition, I would say yes. The upper weight guys tend to have more developed "man-strength".

There are always exceptions. This year, there are several under classmen doing well at the upper weights (Steveson, Warner, Parris).

It's great that we beat out NC State for this kid. Demonstrates that recruiting is on the upswing. I would not put much credence in victory over Howard. It was one move and not domination. Kinda like Mackel's victory over Yanni in high school.

Do Howard dominate him? What happened in their match? Did he catch Howard in a fall?

Good to see anther Ohio Wrestler.
RU needs to open up that pipeline.
I had a curious question. I don't remember any PA wrestlers on our team.
I would think we had to have a few.

Tyson Dippery

Tyson Dippery

He's comparable to Dippery?

 

[wngarbarini]

I don’t know if he is. Someone asked if we had other PA wrestlers and I know one was Dip. Great kid.

 

[HeyHuey]

It must be the practice facility.

If I were a recruit coming into meet the team I would love them. They are great young men and that goes a long way in the recruiting process

Ive been blown away by how solid our kids are. Some of them are honestly too good to be true.
