Razhonn Gross?

[RUCreedo]

I'm hearing that he will be cleared in the last years campus brawl,because of limited participation.Also hearing that he is seriously considering wrestling again,and for Rutgers.Is there any truth too this? I got it from a very,very reliable source.

I have not heard but assume he would be coming back without any scholarship aid and that Goodale/Hobbs would have to pre-clear this with the administration. Hard to believe he might not be better off just starting fresh elsewhere. As I recall he was a very good wrestler in HS. Did he win the states his senior year?

He was last listed at 250 pounds (5'11") last season, so maybe a possible Heavyweight. Too much weight , and some good competition for 197. He hasn't wrestled in a long time however (as far as I know).

Perfect fit for HWT. Makes perfect sense. Especially because we don't have anyone to wrestle at HWT for next year. And it allows Correntti to redshirt.

I hope that this is true -- someone close to the situation told me at the very beginning that he was the one player that would be exonerated, but I did not know if this was based on his bias. Whether Gross wrestles or plays football is secondary; If all the positive things I have heard about him are true I want to see him back in school.

I agree, but if playing competitive sports is as important to him As I think it is, it's vital to his being.

Spot on! I wish the young man well.

He'll have to wrestle off with Ralph Normandia I'd imagine, and not sure at this point if he would beat him. We're probably way ahead of ourselves , of course.

Hey, Big Match tonight, Lehigh !

Normandia couldn't beat out HH for the spot at 197. Hard to imagine that he'd be competitive at HWT.

Yes he won states at 195 in 2013 went 29-2 actually beat Messner twice that year. He had a career mark of 127-18. 4 District, 3 Region titles. I believe he's a lot better than Normandia even with the layoff. At 5'11 250 same body type as Jimmy Lawson and strong as an ox, I think he would fill in nicely at heavyweight for a year or two(not sure how much eligibility left).

 

[ScarletGrapfan]

Gross, if he comes back will have two seasons of eligibility(next year and the year after). Could he be a 1 year option until Correnti finishes his Redshirt? Yes, but I would not expect very much from him, he will not have been on a mat for about 3.5 years.
