I was waiting to see if we made it. I don’t have the subscription but heard NDSU was bragging about being 16th. Glad Hahn out did them.

The brothers Dean (Gabe and Max) are leaving Cornell. Gabe is very close with Damion and Cam, there's a chance (probably a very small one) that they end up in Brookings. That would give SDSU a national championship contender at 184. It's a long shot, but it's worth a phone call from them.

That would be awesome for the program but I’m with salemjack I think they end up at University of Michigan. Family lives in Michigan and they would be joining a top 5 program, but with Hahn and Cam having the relationship that they do I agree that we have a punchers chance for sure. Actually I would say that we have a better shot than Michigan State but U of MI is a heavy favorite.

That would be crazy. Like your said though probably a very small chance. Sounds like it is Michigan or Michigan State though. We shall see.

Keeping up on Twitter, Brent Moore, former ACC champ and NCAA qualifier at 141 for Virginia Tech is in the transfer portal and was recently followed on twitter by Cody Caldwell as well as a handful of other coaches. It could be that the Jacks are going after him as a future 149 pounder. He has wins over Sammy Sasso and Kevin Jack, so you have to feel good about his chances to make a huge impact right away wherever he goes. Caldwell is also following Kizhan Clarke, who just beat Dean Heil and Mitch Mckee at the last chance qualifier. These are two potential All-Americans available for anyone with the money to pick them up. I don't like out chances with Clarke, but, with the St. Paris Graham connection, Moore might be someone we can snatch up. Between Marko making improvements, Martin coming in with the change to start right away, and these two potential transfers, I think we might be primed for a much better season at 149 next year.

Cael Swenson, Derrick Cardinal, and Roman Rogotzke all wrestled at the Minnesota "who's number one" event today. Roman got beat up on the feet by Gabe Nagel and didn't look like himself losing 12-6 but Cardinal and Swenson looked very good. Swenson majored returning state champ Payton Handevidt while Cardinal majored Chase Deblare who is a very highly touted 2X state champ from Simley who has been in and out of the national rankings over the past few years. You have to feel good about these two.

Looks like the 3 MN future "Jack"Hammers for next years class repeated as State Champs in tough brackets yesterday in MN High School AAA Tourney. Going to be fun to watch them grow under the SDSU coaches in coming years. Cardinal won his 4th, Rogotzke and Swenson their 2nd back to back titles, at 132, 195 and 152 respectfully.

Krattiger and Allar will have a good battle for 174 with the gophers if he ends up there, Allar has seen more success, but Krattiger has a head-to-head win. There's definitely something wrong over there in Badgerland but Bono has always had serious retention problems and I always wondered why that didn't deter recruits.

I am way more focused on the us now, BUT I will admit I really enjoy seeing Bono struggle. I think the market for his wresters will continue to grow as he continues to be Bono and drives them out. So for this thread I think Wisconsin and U of MN might continue to provide SDSU with some opportunities for wrestlers. Marko was a nice addition this year, with Hahn's relationship with Eggum, we should continue to have a shot at wrestles who just might not make the starting lineup for MN. Our recruits continue to get stronger, with the youth we have, if we can plug in a transfer upper classman here and there would be great. Once again, our success and awesome staff makes us a destination for Wrestlers who are looking for a home.

I live here in Wisconsin, rumors are that Krattinger was on his way to MN. I am curious to see if there are any more transfers out of Madison.

Jared Krattiger has entered the transfer portal. He's been a good 174/184 pounder for Wisconsin and he has two years of eligibility left. I would love to see Hahn pick him up and have he and King work out 174 and 184 between the two of them. Tanner Harvey of American and Jillian Gorring of App State could also fill this role for the Jacks but they seem less likely to move to South Dakota. Cael Carlson of Minnesota had a very good year this year and, while he's not in the portal, I have to hope that his cousins can talk some sense into him. Cael was arguably the best recruit between he, Clay and Colton and he's the only one to never start a dual meet. He would fit very well at 149 for SDSU.

Cael Carlson would be awesome to have in the room but there is a chance he runs into a tough situation here too, he could be behind DeVos or Cook here too

Cael has been a 149 in the past. I'm thinking that he can still make the weight, but I could be wrong on that.

Harvey would be a great pickup, Krattiger has been about 500 the last couple years and has never qualified for NCAA’s but competing in the big 10 hurts him in that aspect and if they can get him picked up cheap great, Gorring was also 500 but with the weak schedule that App state has he would not be a step up from Schoon, the way Schoon looked at the big 12’s I have a feeling he will surprise some people next year.
