Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. If Kelly went up to 157, who would Iowa have at 149--one of the Ballwegs (Jake?)? I believe Dziewa is going down to 141 isn't he? I wouldn't think replacing Kelly with Ballweg would be an improvement--unless they have someone better to come in.Originally Posted by r.payton@att.net
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. I was thinking more along the lines of Carew or Moore.
You know, I think I would rather be a man than a god . We don't need anyone to believe in us. We just keep going anyhow. It's what we do.
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. And no surprise a thread about an Oklahoma State transfer turns to discussion of Iowa's lineup haha. I counter with my guess of Oklahoma State's lineup next year
125- Tyler Dorrell
133- Jon Morrison
141- Jordan Oliver
149- Alex Dieringer (with Kindig redshirting)
157- Stephen Swan (if eligible)
165- Tyler Caldwell
174- Chris Perry
184- Jordan Rogers
197- Blake Rosholt
285- Alan Gelogaev
If Stephen Swan can't compete then Dieringer will be 157 and Kindig won't redshirt

Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. I would rather JO go 149 than Kindig.
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. Dieringer was a good sized 74 kg. 49 will be a tremendous pull if you ask me.
Go Hawkeyes.
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. I really hope that Rogers takes a RS year. Guys from WA and OR need a year of RS to be decent mat wrestlers (please see WA's last #1 recruit Derek Garcia).
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. Just when I forgot why I was so excited about Chris Phillips, you remind me.
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. I honestly think that Garcia can and will be a multi time AA. I just think he needs a year to put on more muscle (157 may have been a better weight for him) and some time to get used to what D1 mat wrestling is all about. They are so fast to call stalling on the top man in the PNW that we don't develop much ground work. Most summer camps up here focus on takedowns and defense from your feet. There is VERY little emphasis on mat work (with a few of our top programs being exceptions).
Prediction: Derek Garcai is at least a 2x AA, and has at least one finish higher than 5th.
Re: Tyler Caldwell to Oklahoma State. Ha ha! I know your predictions and I hope you're right. I was just trying to get under your skin.
