Herkey talks way more than he should.

Two of my guys were unranked so I gave them a 21 since TOM's rankings only go to 20.

Avg = 10.9

BTW my average ranking is still higher than yours at 9.7 Herk

125 Zach Sanders, Minnesota -1
133 Tony Ramos, Iowa -3
141 Montell Marion, Iowa -3
149 Clay Welter, Northern Iowa -21
157 Dylan Alton, Penn State -15
165 Andrew Sorenson, Iowa State -10
174 Ethen Lofthouse, Iowa -8
184 Ryan Loder, Northern Iowa -10
197 Luke Macchiaroli, Arizona State -16
285 Blake Rasing, Iowa -12
Flex Mike Evans, Iowa -21

Of course my average will get better once Iowa sets their lineup and Penn St figures out which guy will wrestle 157. Also, TOM has Bonin ranked but wrestling at 165 so I left him out since he's a 157 pounder.

What has Zach Sanders done to earn a number 1 ranking Herk?
You are solid at 33 and 41. 49 for you is going to be like last year where you overvalue UNI guys. 57 you may or may not have the starter for PSU. 65 I like Sorensen. Ethen had a lot of hype but didn't live up to much of it as of yet. I think he could be good if he's made some serious strides. He lost to Hunter Meys last year. Yikes. Loder is solid but not near the contender you believe him to be. Macchiaroli lost to Andy Johnson, Ryan Smith and Tyler Dickenson last year? Who are they? I have no idea. Your starting heavyweight is a backup.

I'll run it down for you again VA

Sanders will get second place this year racking up bonus points along the way.

Ramos has a good shot at top three and could very well end up in the finals.

No need to say anything about Marion.

Mike Kelly will suprise you I promise.

Bonin is tough and will win his conference. The PSU starter should be solid. (I just puked a little)

Mike Evans, by all accounts, is an aa contender as a freshman. Andrew Sorenson will win the B12 and was ranked 6th before getting hurt last year.

Ethen Lofthouse has a year under his belt and will be a title contender this season.

Ryan Loder won his conference as a freshman over LeBlanc, whom some were picking to win nationals. He will do better at nationals this year.

Macchiaroli won the PAC10 and Campollatano is a gamble but one worth taking.

My HWT will be tough no matter who it is Rasing or Telford.

So you might want to take the "1" away that is next to Sanders name. That number belongs to one Matt McDonough.

Teams with Freshmen on them will obviously change a lot. Marshall Peppleman could end up being an AA for instance so I am not worried that Tigerfan is tooting his horn. He only has 2 potential conference champs in his line up.

Those are pretty low, so I won't bother averaging them. We got work to do!

That was an obvious mistake so I'm keeping it that way. Youre the only one that it confuses.
