Jordan asked about those wrestlers on the Jackrabbit Illustrated podcast last night. Tagg had a knee infection that he eventually ended up needing surgery for and is medically redshirting, Meredith has a broken leg and is medically redshirting, and Kimball as we know had shoulder surgery and is rehabbing and medically redshirting as well. They will all be back next year so that should end that

Nice! Glad to see an answer put out there. That said, I have seen pictures of all three of them wrestling in the room at various points this year, but they hand out medical reshirt like candy lately. I am surpised that these three want the seventh year, that's some real forward thinking.

So, I think we have a pretty solid line-up, but if you had to pick SDSU's three weakest weights, they would be 125, 133, and 149. We have a person at each of those weights who could make a case towards being better than the starter; Meredith, Tagg and Kimball. These people have wrestled a combined zero matches this year. How is it that nobody within the program felt compelled to tell the fans what's going on throughout almost an entire season? I'm trying to be a fan, help me out here. There are weekly updates, podcasts, radio apearance, email from Hahn and I never miss one. How has nobody brought up these three enormous question marks?

Since Hahn shared it at the Luncheon yesterday, I figure I’m probably safe sharing too. Cook has a slightly sprained elbow. Nothing that he can’t compete with though. He would have gone on Sunday if they needed him, that is why they started at 174 vs AF. SDSU wanted to draw for the first time this season, Hahn likes starting at 125. Sometimes I don’t share what I know because the coaches are telling me because they trust me not to share it, since I’m not asking them as a journalist but as a friend. But I agree it would be good for fans like yourself to at least have some content that asked those kinds of questions. Maybe we just need the right person to spearhead it.

The luncheons are a really great idea to that end. I miss when they were on zoom.

Oh, so you want me to reach out to coaches about wrestlers on the bench, but you won't pick up the phone when I come across a can't miss darkhorse recruit who, by the way is CRUSHING IT over at UNI? (sarcasm) On the real though, if every fan who had a sports question just emailed the coach, they would never get anything done. I don't think legitimate sports reporters don't even usually do that. If it was one guy for a few matches that would be one thing, but this is a third of their line-up for what is looking like the entire year and for several combined hours of interviews and podcasts and thousands of words worth of press-releases and emails this season, nobody has mentioned their names once. StChrist is right, it's none of my business and they don't owe me anything but, if you want people to care about something, it behooves you not to leave people in suspence when the thing that they now care about appears to be in danger.

Thank you to those who provided answers. Outside of the once every other year when the Jacks come down to where I live, I don't get to enguage with fellow fans, so the answers that I occasionally get on this board sustain me.

all the coaches have their emails listed on their website, reach out and let us know what they say

I might be wrong but didn’t Kimball get surgery this summer?

I believe that is what he told me at the Dak open

Meredith and Tagg are both injured. I’m not sure about Kimball.

I think wombat brings up a valid point. Why are only the warm fuzzy and positive things ever talked about. This isn't some middle school wrestling program we are talking about. I'm not saying we need to know everything but acting like these other wrestlers don't exist just leads to speculation.

Just maybe it's none of our business. Maybe it's reasons that can't be disclosed. One would have to assume that the staff would put the best kids out if they are available.

shoot him an email and let us know what he says Damion.Hahn@sdstate.edu

I wish Tyler would ask coaches in all sports those kind of questions sometimes.
