Horrible news and terrible trends for wrestling in general.They had 5 NCAA qualifiers this year too..
With that being said, hopefully Griffith wants to come home to finish his career.
Now just a hunch but I'd have to say Cornell is going to be a big player here and possibly Real Woods(if he wants to come east) as they have the grades for Ivy.I wonder if Princeton would be a more attractive school for a Stanford student.

Not 100% certain but I believe transfer rules would still apply until after next season, though I figure Stanford wouldn’t contest it. Griffith would be required to sit out a year under normal circumstances, and Rivera would be gone. Suriano as well if he decided to come back this season.If we could get Griffith a top 3 wrestler who will contend for a title. Right out the gate, we would be a top 5 team in the country (Trophy contention)
Add Suriano to the mix along with Seabass here -Wow a dream season.
I know Princeton will go hard at Griffith.

Cornell is stacked. They’re going to compete for the team title over the next two years.Now just a hunch but I'd have to say Cornell is going to be a big player here and possibly Real Woods(if he wants to come east) as they have the grades for Ivy.
Nice to have a Community College right next to your Regional training center and an AG school just in case you don't make the grades.Cornell is stacked. They’re going to compete for the team title over the next two years.
Yeah it's bad for the sport and unfortunately will get worse as others are expected.This is bigger than picking up the scraps to improve our program. Shane would be a tremendous addition, but a major west coast program dropping wrestling is not good for the overall health of the sport. There is some tremendous wrestling talent in central/northern California so this is not good for growth overall.
Why would he sit out a year?Not 100% certain but I believe transfer rules would still apply until after next season, though I figure Stanford wouldn’t contest it.

I'd be okay with him going to Penn provided we get him in a grad transfer like Sea Bass. I just don't want him at Princeton.Yeah it's bad for the sport and unfortunately will get worse as others are expected.

One-time transfer exception: If you transfer from a four-year school, you may be immediately eligible to compete at your new school if you meet ALL the following conditions:
http://www.ncaa.org/student-athletes/current/transfer-terms
- You are transferring to a Division II or III school, or you are transferring to a Division I school in any sport other than baseball, men's or women's basketball, football (Football Bowl Subdivision) or men’s ice hockey. If you are transferring to a Division I school for any of the previously-listed sports, you may be eligible to compete immediately if you were not recruited by your original school and you have never received an athletics scholarship.
- You are academically and athletically eligible at your previous four-year school.
- You receive a transfer-release agreement from your previous four-year school.
Also, he'd likely get a waiver if they didn't grant his release. Nonetheless, heavy speculation that he's headed to UPenn, unless they miraculously save the Stanford program with overwhelming donations to also cover a women's sport and other expenses, and convince the administration that already said that won't bring back a sport.

Kid initially chose a world renowned academic institution like Stanford. Makes a lot of sense he would have similar motivations to transfer to another world class academic university. Would have to think UPENN, Cornell and Princeton are some of his top choices if Stanford cannot raise the funds to continue to program.He loves the Wharton School.
Men's and women's cross country at a bare minimum. The other 2 are trickier as we need to stay in Title IX compliance, otherwise I would've said tennis and volleyball.Stanford has stated the programs are gone and fundraising will help them support a club sport. If Shane wants business he should go to Penn. Princeton does not have a Business School and the the Rutgers Business School provides more Wall Street opportunities than Cornell.
Imagine that with the Rutgers deficit, we could see programs cut at RU. If 4 programs need to go, which ones do you recommend?

UPenn is certainly better than Princeton but I'd be surprised that he'd transfer again.I'd be okay with him going to Penn provided we get him in a grad transfer like Sea Bass. I just don't want him at Princeton.
NCAA scholarship limits are combined for T&F (indoor and outdoor) and XC at 12.6, so I'm not sure there's any huge cost savings by dropping XC, since the largest expenses are scholarships and coaches, and it's unlikely either would be cut or we'd be viewed as not fully funding them and should then cut them all.Men's and women's cross country at a bare minimum.

I’m pretty sure the Ivy League doesn’t allow graduate seniors to participate in athletics and Griffith having redshirted as a freshman would likely be on track to graduate with a year of eligibility remainingUPenn is certainly better than Princeton but I'd be surprised that he'd transfer again.
They don't but how do we know that he'll graduate from Wharton by 2022? Maybe transferring in he's only considered a sophomore instead of a junior and then has 3 years of undergrad at UPenn. I'm curious to see how this goes. Any other transfers into Ivies in the past that we could look at?I’m pretty sure the Ivy League doesn’t allow graduate seniors to participate in athletics and Griffith having redshirted as a freshman would likely be on track to graduate with a year of eligibility remaining
Honestly not entirely sure how it works, I just don’t recall ever seeing a redshirt senior on any Ivy League roster in any sport.They don't but how do we know that he'll graduate from Wharton by 2022?
