So many over there are ‘hearing’ Levi Haines had a very hard cut this year and is no longer going 157 in the future.
My reply is that would be pure stupidity, and for a few reasons, again unless the kid can’t make the weight.
First off, what happens to Facundo? I doubt Cael gives up on a kid who had wins over Amine and Kharchla and wrestled both Hamiti and Kennedy tough as a freshman. The kid is talented and everyone knows it.
Second, Haines is the favorite at 157 next year. Why for his own sake or the team sake would he move up to arguably the most loaded weight class of all at 165 and go up with 2 timer O’Toole, national champ Carr, Hamiti, Amine etc etc… if he did go up, whose your 157, true freshman Sealy? Matt Lee ??
There is also talk of 2 other scenarios.. everyone moving up a weight including Facundo/Starroci/Brooks, or some Olympic redshirts being taken.
Now I don’t expect all these scenarios to be addressed, but please if you guys would, please make sense of Levi Haines moving up to 165 next year, or shoot it in the head for me, so I can report back.
Lol.
Thanks.
