Agreed, the Internet is the key to any and all advice about any subject. Anyone who doesn't utilize it to perform their day-to-day tasks is a fool.

Young was ahead late in the 3rd 3 times against Howe and found a way to lose every time yet can't score on Colt-styles ?? Who knows ? But I see 157 as a tougher weight than 165 this year . And going down a weight after 3 years might be harder than one thinks .

While I'm sure it'll be a grind, Max Askren showed last year that it certainly can be done.

29. Which weight class is better, 157 or 184? Which weight class is weaker, 133, 149, 165, 197? Which guys take advantage of 133, 149, 165, and 197 being cleared out and become new stars?

Frank Molinaro fits this bill...5th behind Metcalf, Palmer, Terry and Ruschell. Yet, all anyone wants to talk about is Caldwell coming back (which is understandable), or Dake moving up (also understandable). I really believe that if he continues to improve and put in the effort that he has so far in his career, he can win this weight. Right now, I think he might be laying in the weeds, waiting for his chance.

No mention of Ryan Flores who was EIWA champ two years ago (beating Rey)? Fittery (Midlands champion) got some props..who..when healthy (prior to getting his knee cranked) majored Lister 10-0 and easily beat Saddoris 9-3 in the Navy-AU dual.

If you want to ask a question about Flores and/or Fittery go ahead and do so.

Two years ago after Flores won EIWA's he got upset in the first round at NCAA's by Ben Berhow while Rey made the quarters. Since then Rey has come out and finished 3rd last year while Flores hasn't wrestled.
