Biggest needs are 165/174 area. Paging Allar!! Still time to change ur mind!
Or Jeske if he comes over from Augsburg at some point. Venz is another guy I think will be a 184.
Venz is going to Nebraska, isn't he?

He just needs to transfer back and use his redshirt to sit out a year and still have 4 years :D

Not trying to stir up trouble or anything.

Daniel Kerkvliet 197
Gable Steveson HVY

It's going to be a fun 4 years of watching that!
Kerkvliet wrestled 195 at Super 32. Since he is only a sophomore, the potential exists that he develops into a Kyle Snyder like athletic heavyweight. Can't be ruled out.

Where are all these studs gonna fit on one roster and are they taking a ridiculously small scholarship offer? Crazy how stacked they are and keep adding.

Wow that stinks. The Gophers can't buy a top 10 out of state recruit. RBY had gopher gear on all the time. Embarrassing.

Yeah, that's great recruiting / coaching. Waiting for a guy that can't even get into school to begin with.

Know one has the answer? How can the team not get any top 10 recruits? We must have some scholarships in the wrong hands because theres 3 wrestlers that deserve one based on results.

Tell me that program is not playing dirty! No way does one school get every single recruit they want.

It looks like Minnesota wasn't even in RBY's top five.

Guys... when a big hit like the gophers just experienced brings you to your knees, we've got to rebuild from within and get back up kickin' & screaming!!
#1 - the MN recruits we have gotten this fall with Eggum/Becker at the helm are top 10 guys that still have faith in the program
#2 - many many of the guys we already have rostered came in top 5 or better on the big boards...

*** They are making strides in the right direction and you can't compare them to Penn State at this point in the game, they did not experience what this program has been raked through --- these great coaches & young men are going to rise up and prove all of you wrong!!!
Mark my words.....

Minnesota needs to prove that they're legit again before any top recruit will be checking out the Gophers. They need to start picking up some kids from outside the state. Hard to do that with the head coach in question and the drama that happens with JRob. Not Eggum's fault so I hope he turns out results so the team looks promising.

I agree, I'm about finished watching too.. Penn St is going to win every title for at least 10 years.

Talking with a few wrestlers and parents today at the JJ I heard the same thing over and over about the U, "it's a mess there right now". I don't know what the answer is to make the gophers appealing once again but basically if the wrestler doesn't have a direct connection to the U they are going else where.

Cael is the shiny object right now. He bats his eyes at recruits, and they come running. Very frustrating. but it won't last for ever.

Cael is a modern day Dan Gable. This thing isn't slowing down anytime soon. At this point its pretty bleak as a Gopher fan.

I think that the new facilities will be huge for them. When they're finished, Eggum will have something to hang his hat on.

Probably not after the scandal.

I was thinking earlier if any of the 4 suspended have scholarships, they should have to forfeit them.

More likely than not we land Gable. Bobby and Fredy and Gable seem to be really close. I just can't see a scenario where Gable goes to Penn St. unless Bobby transfers. I think we land Gable before we land little Berge. Bobby and Gable grew up gopher fans.

If we land Gable, I do believe a few more top studs will follow. We have all the makings of a good team this year, but we are in desperate need of outside state kids. A team of all MN boys won't be in the top 3.
