I'm sure that someone's already answered this somewhere but Is Danny Vega related to Leroy the Gopher All-American? |

No relation. I would like to see Danny come here, but he needs to gain some serious size before he is college ready. Patrick McKee looked considerably bigger then him. |

Not impossible with the strength and conditioning program the U has as well as the "training table"---I think the Star Trib had an article on it regarding the football teams use of it lately, assuming all athletes get access to the same nutrition/food it should not be a problem to pack on 12-15lbs of muscle and mass in over a year. And just to remind people, I think Leroy Vega wrestled 112 in 1997--I should know, as I know I got my ass handed to me in Greco by him a time or two in regional/national competition---and if I remember right, he was red-shirting at 118 before the weights changed. He was one of the best 125lbers we've had...3xAA and should've been a 4xAA (got upset as a Sr.)....I don't know if you'd want to say he "started" a good tradition at 125 for us during the JRob 30 year period as I don't know all the successful Gopher 118lbers (I've heard of Giese and Nix) during the 80's and most of the 90's...but he was more successful than Paulson in college, and with the succession of Lowe, Ness, Sanders, and Thorn we've had what I believe was 9 AA's at that weight since Vega, which is probably one of the better weights for us since 1999. Plus, I think Lizak can add to that success for at least 1 year (Or more if Vega needed more time to add size) at that weight... |

So who are the actual commits for the fall of 2016 to date? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the ones we know for sure are McKee, Marko, Jeske, Anderson and Webster. That's a pretty good start IMO. |

That's just at first glance, if you give me a few I can go into depths about recruits, backups, redshirts, the "McKee Scenerio ", and the "Berge Scenerio".

Tucker Sjomeling: No info just a gut feeling. 2017-2018 Pat McKee: He will be a Gopher Roman Bravo-Young: Leaning towards MN. Alex Lloyd: No info but in state and he's a must have in an area of need. Gable Steveson: I've been told it's MN. He comes the rest will come. 2018-2019 Anthony Jackson & Dan Kerkvleit: Let's keep that Simley pipeline boys. * I've heard rumors of Gavin Teasdale to MN but it doesn't make a lot of sense as he would require some good money in the same class of P.McKee, Bravo-Young, Lloyd, and G.Steveson in that recruiting class. Not to mention we would already have a quality guy for cheaper at his weight in Sjomeling. ----------------------------------------------- The McKee Scenerio firmly believe 3 things...1) You always put out your best lineup no matter what. 2) Mitch McKee is college ready, can contribute for us at NCAAs as a true frosh, and is our best option at 133 next year. 3) Mitch McKee will be at 133 his whole college career. Now with all that said I think we should start McKee at 133 next year as a true frosh. And if 133 starts getting hard for McKee to make and maintain then you redshirt him in 2018-2019, Thorn's senior year allowing McKee him to come back and take over for Thorn at 141 for his final 2 years. If this happened then that would mean Polakowski, rSr and Sjomeling, rFr would battle for 133 spot for 2018-2019 with McKee redshirting and moving up a weight. McKee moving up would also mean that incoming recruit Roman Bravo-Young would have to make 133 for his first 2 years rather then 141, if Bravo-Young couldn't make 133 we would still have Sjomeling there. ----------------------------------------------------- The Berge Scenerio: This sanerio is much more simple. Depending on the recovery time and when Brady will be 100% again is what should determine whether he redshirts or not. He will be our best option and whatever weight if he is healthy. I believe he is a career 174 which is exactly where we need him. -------------------------------------------------------------- Conclusion: The Minnesota Gophers wrestling program is still thriving, we had a down year but the future looks very bright. The staff clearly knows what their doing so let them do their job. I would like to see them get a big name coach I there to groom for when J steps down, the Lord know he ain't getting any younger and I don't believe Eggum is head coach material.

If Teasdale wants to be a Gopher, you make it happen. He is probably a top 5 recruit his senior year. |

You do NOT take away money from Gable or Bravo-Young to make it happen. And I don't think it's smart to sacrifice money from guys that are at "need" weights yet still very talented wrestlers like Pat McKee and Alex Lloyd. If you can still get Teasdale and all these guys then that would be AMAZING.. |

Im guessing each style had its own weigh-ins. Not sure he was able to stay at 129.8 for 3 days and still wrestle top competition. Edited by bison, Apr 5 2016, 10:47 AM.

I'm hoping he decided not to possibly wrestle against either of his Storm teammates, possibly knocking them out of their LAST-CHANCE to qualify for the Trials, in the style in which they train.....jmo

I'm pretty sure none of the Storm guys are worried about beating a team mate to make the trials. For some, there are very few chances. |

Slay is leaving his post with USA wrestling to work with Penn's RTC. Slay was not a fan of MN and shared that with recruits who would seek his advice. Would be nice to get a Lawrence or somebody that could be a MN advocate in house.
