    Today South Dakota State edged Wyoming in their dual. We are going to be near the bottom of the Big 12 this year.

    I'd like to argue with you, but what you say is probably true.

    Based on my computer rankings the Jacks are up 22 points from last year, which is the biggest improvement of any team. So, they are basically back after a one year re-build with the new coach. We are down 7 points so far, and that will get worse unless we manage to keep it close to ISU.

    The only Big12 teams that wrestlestat has us beating are WV, UNC, and Air Force, and the margin of error over the Golden bears is very thin.

    I hope the guys can prove this all wrong.

    I'm really looking forward to him at 197 next year. 125/133 (whichever Mac isn't at), 141 (I think Doregemuller is the better answer, but he's unproven), 149 (JVM hasn't put it together yet), 174 (Noel? Brenner?), and 184 (Current guys haven't shown much) are all huge question marks next year.
    I saw that Sam Stuhl also won the Ridgewater at 149 yesterday. Maybe they can give JVM a breather. Also only half joking.

    I agree that Mike Nelson has some interesting potential. That was really something when he took down Metz during the scrimmage.

    It is really refreshing to see Franek be able to change things up when one move isn't working. He doesn't have any ranked wins yet, but it feels like he has the highest ceiling on the team. I know that Weber is a quality back-up, but I think it is important for the future to go with Franek for the rest of the year.
