Not to sound like a smart aleck, but what do you think Jamal has been doing in that room the last year and a half?

That's the only freshman or rs-freshman from tOSU who even has a chance at starting, let alone having an impact. If he knocks off Johnstone to take the starting spot I won't be surprised if he makes an impact.

Is Weakley red shirting? or do you think Gardner beats him out for the starting spot at 197?

Well not to sound like a smart alec, but maybe, just maybe he's working on what worked for him in high school, which won't work in my opinion all that well in College. I could be wrong, and for his sake, hope I am.

Some people take longer than others, and there's nothing wrong with that. Some guys come in and get it right away, and succeed from the very get go. Others take a year or two.

I don't have the mindset that a successful collegiate wrestler has to do very well from the get go. When someone doesn't do real well as a freshman or even a sophomore I don't give up on them. Hell, I don't give up on them even if they don't do well their junior year.

Not everyone can be a Coleman Scott or a Nathan Morgan and make an immediate impact from day 1. Some people are more like Pat Cummins or Deonte Penn and take a while.

I don't see anything wrong with that. In fact, I think that's more of a testimony to good coaching and hard work.

word on the street is Gardner beats him handily. His only obstacle is keeping the weight
