PA HS Wrestling thread

[McScoreley]

Levi guesses 174/184, he grows 20 pounds a year, his dad was like a 195 and he's very young. Expect him to be a 174, I'd be shocked if he stops growing at 165.

2023 - Shapiro, Jesuroga, Arnold will be big time targets. Obviously we'll be competing with every school in the country for them. Wouldn't be shocked if we go for MA McGowan also if we miss on Mendez.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Cael attempt to flip Christian Carroll either (or go all in on Mullen). I don't think we'll have Kerk for 4 more years.

 

[johnstownsteel]

Jesuroga would be my top target. Bo Bassett is going to need that type of partner in the NLWC/ PSU room when he gets here.

 

[Folkstylefan]

Bassett will have Dalton Perry to partner with

 

[jtothemfp]

Obligatory:

Nerf, what's your guess as to Cael's words in this clip?

 

[BrockBronson]

I agree with have Perry. We need Arnold tho. He would be a great fit

 

[District four]

Bassett will have Dalton Perry to partner with

Yes we need perry he's going to be special

 

[McScoreley]

Yes we need perry he's going to be special

I'm not super worried about that one ... lol

 

[El-Jefe]

Yes we need perry he's going to be special

As long as we have Cael, there are no needs, only wants.

 

[District four]

Lol. Your right

This is a strange pickup. I definitely didn’t see that one coming. Lots of talent for sure,,,,,,,,,,, but

I wasn't sure if I should care or not. So, what to do? Go to dice's recruiting spreadsheet. He lists them on the sheet. So ... still not sure if I should care. If Cael wanted them I am sure if can get them to flip in the next two years.

Or not.

18 recruits visiting Iowa? Holy sh*t. Of note, Mendez, Jesuroga, Franklin, Arnold.

Todd Conner seems to be a constant source of info for Iowa fans regarding their recruits. How come we don't have a "Todd Conner" reporting this sort of info publicly for PSU fans?

I think we have it just as good if not better here. We have a group of guys that share all their knowledge as far as hs wrestling and recruiting is concerned. They are awesome! Just have to read all the threads because their info can just come out of nowhere in threads you wouldnt expect.

why would any Pa kid not wanna go to Penn State??

Every time I see a Todd Conner post, I can't help but think of this guy...

Not everyone will be offered money and/or have a starting spot for 4 years.

Todd is definitely a huge Iowa fan so gotta respect that. He does let his heart override his brain at times but I'm as guilty as anyone for doing that. I get on him a bit over on HR for his crazy predictions but I enjoy the information he puts out. Hes ok in my book.

Most are there for the free PSU tickets

You want to sign up for the job of infiltrating the Cael-GB for publishable information?

You’ll need a plan.

You misspelled Willie.

Be mindful of what you ask for ...

I would love to see one of our "informed" fans start up a PSU Wrestling blog. We're one of the top teams in the country, so why not have one (if I'm not mistaken, the late great Kurt Russell had one going before his untimely passing). On the occasions that I'd happen across Todd's site, I'd feel that the Iowa fans were lucky to have a source of information like that at their disposal. Just wishful thinking I guess.

I tend to treat Black Shoe Diaries’ coverage like that. It’s not very recruiting focused though.

PJ Casale flipped to Rutger.

Lol

 

[82bordeaux]

This is actually funny but more than likely very true-

 

[PSU_Pride_93]

PJ Casale flipped to Rutger.

EJ, any inkling that Big Jim follows and Casale goes 197? I know they are good friends and i thought i remember seeing or hearing around cadet worlds that they could be a package deal

Could happen but Mullen is exploring his options -- has already visited North Carolina.

I'm also not sold on the Casale 197 theory. IMO he's a 97 kg freestyle guy like Snyder and Walz and Kasper.

Grant MacKay is off the board
