I thought he also had Penn State on his list?
Might still, but knowledgeable poster on Cyclone board said that PSU is out now. Again, all rumors as of right now

Verk still has Iowa State pinned on twitter account that he is committed to the Cyclones.

Also heard that Penn State was out. Also heard that he is staying a Cyclone. Also heard that it is between Minny and NC State. Also heard that he would decide after PA states.

Lots of rumors. Only thing I know for sure is PA States are over with

Iowa recruit Spencer Lee lost his state final match for the only loss of his career.
To a kid on a vision quest.
DeSanto was attacking the heck out of him at the end. Couple of warriors.
Great match. A ton of credit to DeSanto, that was a ballsy performance. He was the aggressor and I like when the aggressor is rewarded. All that being said, that wasn't a takedown.

Not me.

I'll be in the same shape as when Nelson dropped the pass in '87. wait, no when Andersen missed the field goal in '09. wait, no when Walsh missed the field goal in '16.

I think if Gable commits to Mn, your going to see him become one of if not the most important recruiting tools for the Gophers. You will see guys like Verk coming this way. Eggum is a great coach, just doesn't have the star power his adversaries at PSU, Iowa, and Okie state have.

Eggum and the rest of the staff really seem to handle themselves with a quiet class and that could be a breath of fresh air to a lot of parents and recruits. Some kids are turned off by the mat side antics of people like the Brands, Manning, etc.. with the "EVERY MATCH IS A WAR! A CONTROLLED FIGHT!". Eggum comes off as a guy who can say to a parent, "My staff and I are going to help your son achieve his goals on the mat, in the classroom and become a responsible young man along the way."

He may not have the star power of some other coaches, but I think kids will want to wrestle for him. I have nothing but respect for Cael Sanderson and I think he leads his program the same way.

Great Post. I say Eggum doesn't quite have the "star power" status ... YET.

I really like the entire coaching staff and I'm confident that Brandon and co. will have the Gophers back in the top 5 within three years. I'm excited that Jake Allar switched to STMA East.

A commitment from Gable would be a big step to landing others. Verk might be more intrigued to join his buddy Jake. RYB might re-look at the maroon to team up with Gable.

This weekend, I think Verk should surprise everyone and announce ten seconds after Gable. They can sit together in the Gopher section the rest of the weekend. :D

I SO hope you're right. The Gophers need this kind of a boost.

I know. It hurts. I didn't mean to sound so excited but, in retrospect, I'm a Koufax fan. The fact that he fanned Allison for the last out is a lasting bad memory.

Verkleeren in an interview after state said he was still committed to ISU but that he would announce it if that changes. Not the most reassuring statement I am sure. Any update knightfever?

Has the potential to be. Was a Cadet World Champ in freestyle. Has had some mixed reviews in folk style on occasion but still a very solid resume.
