► Add to the Discussion Page Previous  1, 2, 3  Next Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Jason Fair added to this discussion on February 13, 2024 Is it confirmed that Davino will be at 133? I thought 125 was a possibility? He could be a difference maker there next year in a wide open weight. I’m not convinced moving up to 141 makes sense for Bouzakis. Jesse is an average sized 141 and I don’t know that a year in RS changes that. I’d wrestle Jesse w/o a RS and recruit Blaze and Bo hard. One of them takes over 141 when Mendez graduates.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Nick Lecklider added to this discussion on February 13, 2024 https://youtu.be/qroPbMDq5sM?si=DIB_sTdprt76kQXg Just before 12 min in he claims 133 is most likely. He hit a growth spurt. Someone is going to have to go to 149 and Jesse makes the most sense. I think he makes the move in two years. I have no inside knowledge in this but it looks like Bouzakis may have problems with the weight. If he doesn’t have problems with the weight you can redshirt Davino. If Bouzakis is moving up then you redshirt Mendes.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Pat Costilow added to this discussion on February 16, 2024 Just want to say I love Davino's skill set and look forward to seeing him in a Buckeye singlet. That top batch of national guys in his weight range is all supremely talented, Rainey, Basset, Lilledahl, Forrest, Blaze, they all have big success in front of them, imo, and Davino has been right there with all of them the past few years. I agree with the earlier sentiments of getting the best in the room and let them work it out, it's how Penn State has operated, and supplemented holes via the portal, although I appreciate being in the corner of the team that seems committed to not doing that.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Nick Lecklider added to this discussion on February 28, 2024 Seth Mendoza is announcing tomorrow at 11 am. People seem to think that Ohio state may be a co favorite. Davino is his friend and may be trying to pull strings. Mendoza has close losses this year to Jax Forrest and lilledahl. He is talented just not sure how we would fit in all these lower weights eventually. Still need to go hard after Bassett and blaze regardless.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on February 28, 2024 Bucks are in good shape at 125 with McCrone and Kilkeary. They are also set at 133 with Davino. Bouzakis is 133/141. Mendez is 141/149. Same for Cannon. I see Mendoza as a luxury more than a necessity but Anthony Ralph, Tom Ryan and the rest of the staff have a bigger clue than I do about who they want and why.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Rob Wagner added to this discussion on February 29, 2024 Mendoza heading to Mizzou.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Drew Taylor added to this discussion on February 29, 2024 Mendoza picks Missouri. Good for him and for Mizzou. Was hoping that if he didn’t pick the Bucks he’d pick Illinois. Mike Poeta needs in-state talent like Mendoza to turn around the once proud Illini.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Rob Wagner added to this discussion on February 29, 2024 Quote from Drew Taylor's post: "Mendoza picks Missouri.

Always silently rooting for Illinois, especially since Heff used to coach there. Focus must stay on Blaze, Bouzakis, Bassett.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Drew Taylor added to this discussion on February 29, 2024 What do we know about the Bucks’ chances with the Killer B’s - Blaze, Bouzakis, Bassett? Any insider info?        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Jim Kessen added to this discussion on March 1, 2024 Bucks did get a commit from #8 215 Cayean Smith from Utah and projects as a 197        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Pat Costilow added to this discussion on March 4, 2024 Quote from Drew Taylor's post: "What do we know about the Bucks’ chances with the Killer B’s - Blaze, Bouzakis, Bassett? Any insider info?" I have less than zero insider info, but I would assume it will be an uphill battle to pull the McCort kids away from Cael. I'm really curious if Blaze would follow his brother to Purdue, i thought Joey was a marqee recruit for Purdue, i would be shocked if they landed Marcus. Ohio State should be pushing HARD for him. Bouzakis should be a priority recruit as well, he fits nicely into an area of need for the Bucks.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Jim Kessen added to this discussion on March 4, 2024 I’ve seen reports that the other OSU is favorite for Jax and he is there a lot.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Pat Costilow added to this discussion on March 4, 2024 Quote from Jim Kessen's post: "I’ve seen reports that the other OSU is favorite for Jax and he is there a lot." I would be thrilled - getting any of those McCort kids away from Cael, especially with Gibsons at/going to PSU is a huge win.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Jim Kessen added to this discussion on March 4, 2024 I’ve seen reports that the other OSU is favorite for Jax and he is there a lot.        Discussion Topic: Seth Mendoza Ethan Moore added to this discussion on April 27, 2024 Mendoza techs Forrest in the first period. Yowza. Didn't see that coming.        ► Add to the Discussion Page Previous  1, 2, 3  Next
