Discussion Topic: Buckeye roster question for the future
Rob Wagner added to this discussion on December 3, 2021

With COVID, Olympics, and the " free year" of eligibility all happening within the last 2 or so years; I have no idea which "grade" any of these gentleman are in anymore.

Does anyone know who on the Buckeyes roster is actually considered a senior right now, as in, this is their absolute last year they are eligible to wrestle for the Buckeyes? I know the Bucks have a great class coming in next year, but the experience on any roster is always key.

The answer is essentially none. Romero, Smith, and Orndorff were redshirt juniors last year, and thus redshirt juniors again this year (from an eligibility perspective). Malik was a true junior, so he's on the same trajectory as them, although he still has a redshirt he could use in theory.

All of them will be eligible to come back next year, if they so choose. Wouldn't be surprised if any of the 6th year guys decide to move on, particularly if they achieve individual goals this year.

If I recall correctly, Romero finished undergrad in 3 years, so is probably wrapping up his masters program this year. If that's the case, I wouldn't expect him to return.
