Hopefully we’re in on Rivera or Smith. Seems like Provo is NC St bound and Robinson to Nebraska.

At one time, I heard the hearing was going to be in April. Not sure if that is still the case

If he's in, it seems like he would clear the decks at the lower weights. I wondered if that was a factor in Castillo's departure.

Don’t we also have Vandermark from Ankeny Centennial coming in? In any case, I’m not sure how competitive either he or Lewis will be in the big 12 is true freshmen.
