Recruits

This kid screams upside. If you can win a national title wrestling out of Benson, Minnesota while being a multiple sport athlete, you can win in Brookings with some of the best upper weight coaches and training partners in the country. He's a great fit for us. I do kind of hope he goes heavyweight, 197 is getting a little crowded in the room.

Here is from the same area as the Carlson's. Benson is about 20 minutes from where I live so I plan to get to a few of his matches this winter.

it will be interesting to see what weight he ends up at next season, hasn't had a great career so far but sometimes a change is all a kid needs, he has 2 years of eligibility I believe

Whatever weight he goes is fine with me. He will bring another D1 experienced wrestler to the roster. What he does with that is up to him. WELCOME TO BROOKINGS, BRANDON.

sounds like 125 from what I'm hearing

Brody Teske just entered the portal. This is his second transfer so I wonder if there isn't an academic or character issue, but he could be a major piece for the Jacks, especially if Meredith can't make 125 again. He's also an Iowa kid, so they should have a shot at getting him.

Caldwell tweeted that they picked up another commitment, no name yet

I don't know a lot about him, but he seems like a fringe top-20 wrestler in his weight-class and you have to think that he has some real upside coming from a state like Tennessee. He also has a little brother who seems to be at a comparable level.
