No one will compete with Hidlay over next two years. Race for 2nd.

Not sure about the scholarship $$$ situation, but I think the staff looks for a one year transfer at likely 184 or 197.

TJ being ready at 197 would be great but not guaranteed. The coaches can use the Open season to assess his readiness and development, then make a decision whether to burn the shirt in December.

The gap with NC State isn't shrinking, and we could use someone who can compete for 2nd at 184 in conference and grab points at Nationals. We did sign Kibe last year. Will he be ready to compete as a RS-freshman?

It was so nice ending duals with ZZ, Haught and Ty. Three absolute hammers. ** -- Wilmington Hokie 03/08/2022 11:58AM

We also had DMF (165) and Epp (174) with those guys in 2015-16. ** -- VTDante 03/08/2022 12:56PM

Curious if Kibe has bulked up to tangle with 184 guys? -- emhokie 03/08/2022 2:59PM

He warmed up Mehki before ACCs. He looked bigger!! ** -- wasris 03/08/2022 4:07PM

I don't think Bolen and Lewis moved for the team's sake -- Pylons 03/08/2022 09:49AM

Here’s what I’d like to see -- OrangeHokieFan 03/08/2022 5:31PM

JMO, Your last paragraph is what will happen!!! ** -- wasris 03/08/2022 1:10PM

Mekhi had to move. He was bigger than Yates was & that's saying something ** -- HokieToph 03/08/2022 12:08PM

Space -- WPAHokie 03/08/2022 10:44AM

Well you bump a even a "solid" guy for Mekhi. -- Pylons 03/08/2022 11:01AM

See David McFadden. Bumped to 174 for Mekhi and he was tremendous. ** -- TartanHokie 03/08/2022 11:40AM

DMF = ultimate team player -- Jeffrey4VT 03/09/2022 09:41AM

Agree. You put your top wrestlers in a position to succeed. -- VTDante 03/08/2022 10:23AM

How the middle shakes out will certainly be interesting -- Pylons 03/08/2022 10:47AM

Yeah, I'm in the BA at 149 camp after this past weekend but what do I know? -- VTDante 03/08/2022 10:52AM

Don't forget Wilson has a 3rd nationally at 133 in 2018 too -- Pylons 03/08/2022 11:04AM
