Ummmm....pass!This is awesome news. First AA since the 1960s at HWT and he's coming back??? F-ing pinch and smack my azz in celebration!!
Does Buchanan at Oklahoma have any eligibility left at 197? OU was good for us in the portal last year with Mitch Moore. I wouldn't mind using them again as our farm team lol.Great News.
If Turley comes back, have Poz drop back to 184, Soldano redshirt then just need to find a 165, 197 and possibly a 157. Have Poz wrestling at his best weight that kid is a high 184 AA. They should not be clearing space for Soldano and he either redshirts or sits behind Poz. A lot less question marks to answer next year.
Yes, Buchanan has another year. I just don't see Poz getting strong enough in one year to close the gap at the weight. He can get to any shot he wants, he's quick and slick enough for that. Where he struggles is he's not strong enough at this weight to finish a high number of them.Does Buchanan at Oklahoma have any eligibility left at 197?

Jacob Cardenas, 4th place at 197 for Cornell. 8th place last year.
Chris Foca, 3rd place at 174 for Cornell last year. Blood round this year at 184.
Each will graduate and have one year of eligibility left. Were stars at Bergen Catholic.
Both could be portal options if Soldano redshirts and/or Poz drops to 184.
I'm sure the usual schools like Iowa and Michigan will be throwing big $ at AA transfers to fill/upgrade open weights. Wouldn't be surprised if someone asks Foca to go 174 again. Would he? Btw, it's wild that Cornell has 40 wrestlers on its roster while we have 30.Does Buchanan at Oklahoma have any eligibility left at 197? OU was good for us in the portal last year with Mitch Moore.

Cardenas is done at Cornell and will enter portal. I was told Foca will be back at Cornell next year. I think he was enrolled one semester his frosh year and will come back 2nd semester next season.Pipe dream is Soldano redshirts, Poz drops back to 184, Foca comes in and drops back to 174, Cardenas comes in at 197.
Doesn’t solve the 165 mess but Clark returns at 157 or Harer can slide in there.
At this point just get someone who can make Nationals, for last year that would be B1G Top 10. This weight has been such an enigma for too long. Get a kid like that and a lot of us would be satisfied.Doesn’t solve the 165 mess

Gimme that azz 🤤🤤🤤. 😂🤣😂This is awesome news. First AA since the 1960s at HWT and he's coming back??? F-ing pinch and smack my azz in celebration!!
ShockerI'm hearing Cardenas to Michigan
I'm sure Michigan will buy a brand new lineup again for next year.Shocker
Sounds like Hamiti already on their listI'm sure Michigan will buy a brand new lineup again for next year.
If he doesn't go down he'll never be more than a top 15-20 seed in my opinion. Those big physical 184 pounders are too much for him. Either way I hope he redshirts this year. Poz should probably be back at 184, but who knows if he has any interest in going back down.I hope Soldano isn't shy about wrestling after that injury. I don't see him cutting to 174, and I certainly don't see him going to 197. I once thought he could, but I wasn't aware of how small he was in comparison to others. Poz should stay at 197, and he and Soldano need to gain strength and confidence. Strength is measurable, so take some baseline measurements and set objectives.
What is the outlook for Packer? And Blanchette is coming in. He will likely find it more difficult outside of New England, but if Turley leaves, it's Blanchette or Walsh. I hope to see Harer starting at 157 unless he fills the 165 spot.
I think Poz is stuck between weights... has trouble holding 184... But a lil small at 197... hopefully he can bulk up a lil... Agree, Soldano should redshirt to either get stronger... Or work on cutting to 174...If he doesn't go down he'll never be more than a top 15-20 seed in my opinion. Those big physical 184 pounders are too much for him.

Who told you he had trouble holding 184I think Poz is stuck between weights... has trouble holding 184... But a lil small at 197... hopefully he can bulk up a lil... Agree, Soldano should redshirt to either get stronger... Or work on cutting to 174...
U ain't the only one who knows things...Who told you he had trouble holding 184
I know Poz didn't have issues making 184U ain't the only one who knows things...
Then he should go back down. Like I said before, he's quick enough to get in on any shot he wants. He's just not strong enough to finish a high majority of them at 197. On bottom no one can hold him down and his top game is good, but would work better with smaller guys. He goes down to 184 again you're looking at a high NCAA placer. The staff should not be holding a spot at 184 for Soldano.I know Poz didn't have issues making 184
The irony is Shawver moved up to 133 to make room for Peterson at 125 and Poz moved up to 197 to make room for Soldano at 184.Then he should go back down.

We now know what's working and what can be tweaked. We need Poz back at his best weight and that's 184. That kid was in deep on so many shots that on a 184 lber he would get, but at 197 he just got smothered. Some of his matches it was ridiculous the amount he would get 6 to 7 great attempts and his opponent just 1 and somehow he would lose just from the sheer size of his opponent.The irony is Shawver moved up to 133 to make room for Peterson at 125 and Poz moved up to 197 to make room for Soldano at 184.
Who said Shawver moved up to make room for Peterson. Shawver moved up because it was a better weight class for him.The irony is Shawver moved up to 133 to make room for Peterson at 125 and Poz moved up to 197 to make room for Soldano at 184.
I thought they wrestled off for 125, or it was perceived Peterson was the better wrestler at the time so one of them had to move up.Who said Shawver moved up to make room for Peterson. Shawver moved up because it was a better weight class for him.
I thought Peterson beat him so he moved up but I may be wrong.I thought they wrestled off for 125, or it was perceived Peterson was the better wrestler at the time so one of them had to move up.
Agree one million percent on Poz.We now know what's working and what can be tweaked. We need Poz back at his best weight and that's 184.

Yeah I thought the same.. and if they didn’t wrestle off for 125 it was def perceived that Peterson was the better option at 125, at the time.. Shawver obv improved a lot since.I thought Peterson beat him so he moved up but I may be wrong.
Never had a wrestle off. Both wrestled at the Princeton open. Peterson lost to Glory in the semifinals and Shawver lost in the finals. Shawver had a medical that season.I thought Peterson beat him so he moved up but I may be wrong.
Is this the same reason Poz went 197 and Soldano stayed 184?Shawver had more trouble holding 125 than Peterson did. That’s why he was the one to go 133
