He is the 7th ranked heavyweight in the country currently. 4x state champ and has won national tournaments in freestyle, greco-roman, and folkstyle wrestling. We recruit wrestlers often, but this kid is on a different level.

If he chose to wrestle he'd be an All-American, potential NCAA champion, and he's got the ability to make the Olympic team. That's the kind of athlete he is.

A lot of Big 10 schools are going to advertise being a dual sport athlete and stay close to home.

The season starts in November. Missing the first two months doesn’t seem conducive, especially with the specific training and weight goals involved. I think that’s why it was such a big deal when he announced he’s pursuing football at the next level. Carlton Haselrig is the standard for standout wrestlers who also succeeded in the NFL…but he never played football in college.

His older brother Damion was also a phenomenal wrestler (#9 in the country at his weight) and is at Arizona State. So maybe staying close to home (and even a cold place) isn't as important.

He sounds like an intriguing prospect, but why haven’t Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa State and Iowa offered? He’s close to them and you would think they would be interested.

Looked it up, he only lives 8 miles from Minn line.

Wonder if he would want to go to a wrestling school or would prefer for it to be out of sight out of mind ?

Say what you will about how they've been but I am extremely impressed with Lance Leipold and what he has done with them. They started 6-0 until their starting QB went down at the end of the first half against TCU and they then lost by 1 score. I genuinely think they go 9-3 or 10-2 if Jalon Daniels didn't get injured.

His 247 profile shows an offer from Wisconsin and Minnesota. It is "interesting" that Iowa and Iowa State haven't offered. His wrestling school offer list is pretty good though with Nebraska and K-State in there.

That’d be tough since K-State doesn’t have a wrestling program?

If we are interested I hope he is mobile. My parents moved from Knoxville to SD for a decade and it is a tough drive. On one return trip I was driving through St. Louis 15 minutes after the famous World Series bad call at first and had to share the roadways with tons of mad and alcohol altered locals. High in my list of near death experiences.

They hired Dan White’s former hire at Buffalo, Lance Leipold and he knows all of these plays and it’s so cool and they beat the Longhorns every year and they were undefeated and playing Duke and Gameday was mean and picked Florida at UT instead and…

I don't think the distance is much of a concern. His brother is at Arizona State.

I flew in to Fargo (the other Dakota but surely they’re about the same) once - only commercial airport I’ve ever been to without a normal enclosed terminal with multiple gates. Can imagine outside of the cities it could be pretty desolate.
