My thoughts after today(and as I said in an earlier post, there probably has already been some wrestle-offs and more this week in the room).
125-I have the same feelings as many on here that RU should keep Aguilar on redshirt for at least Nov, Dec....if he is still only beating Metzler by a super slim margin, just redshirt him. This weight will not be a strong weight either way and would rather have Aguilar get adjusted this year.
133-I think at this point it looks clear that NS will be at 133....If this is where he feels best than that is what he should do. More landmines at 133, but I think he will be in the finals at either weight.
141-Expected MVB to beat Cleary and he did. I think Lipari, when he gets back will be a little closer but still think MVB edges him out to remain starter all year.
149-AA-cant wait for him to get out and compete, hope he is completely healed and stays healthy. Weight is wide open and after two semi appearances, I expect him to reach the finals. Benner will probably give AA a break if needed(with Santos out with knee and redshirting, look for Benner to shirt next year with Santos back).
157-I thought JVB would win and match went as expected. JVB ranked 9th for a reason, after the heartbreak last year hoping he gets on the podium this season.
165-Glasgow-gonna be tuff for him at 165, he will be undersized and this is his first year in a college room(wish we had someone to go 165 and he could redshirt). He is a super talent, but remember it is his first year in the room. Going to have a hard time on bottom at 165. But I look for him to be much better in Jan/Feb than he is right now.
174-Grello(although Scott will push him). Again like others, thought Grello would start to separate from the pack. Still early but this is a little concerning.
184-Gravina, should be back soon and Pagano will man the weight till NG is back. Janzer pushing Pagano but cant see pulling his redshirt unless NG gets injured again and he is handling Pagano.
197-I think Wright starts out the season and he and Correnti battle it out. Coach Goodale made it clear that RU needs production from this weight class. Has been some whispers to how hard Correnti works and if Wright is beating him he will be in the lineup.
Hwt-Colucci-upgrade over last season and doubt he gets pushed from other Hwts on roster. He will be start to finish HWT
With NS and AA we will be a better tournament team than dual team...Great schedule and looking forward to Pittsburgh!!!
