Colbray to make weight change

I remember M Moreno cutting to 157. It was hard to watch. They bump him to 165 and he turns into a hammer. Hard to tell how a cut is really effecting a guy.

So I look up this UV wrestler Armstrong because the announcers were saying how tough he wrestled Lujan last week. TF Lujan in 6:40.

Super duper tough.
Those announcers were annoying. I won't complain too much because I definitely appreciate UVU streaming the dual for free but woof they sucked.
 
This weight change has me thinking about next year.

Does Carr stay at 157 next year or go to 165 with Straw graduating
If so, who will lead candidates at each open weight.
Does Colbray go to 174 again next year? If not who would be there?
At 184, I assume Coleman would go there, but can he beat Broderson?
Is Broderson an option at 174, if Colbray can't go there?
I assume 197 will be between Shapiro and Duggan again

Just a guess on my part, but I would have the following lineup:

157- Transfer?
165- Carr
174- Colbray
184- Broderson or Shapiro
197- Coleman (really hit the weights hard. Has the frame to add muscle)
 
I assume it will be something like that. With Broderson and Shapiro or Coleman battling for 184 and the other at 197

Assuming Gomez is at 141 next year, do we plan on bumping Parker and Degen up or just have Ian and Austin battle it out for the 141 spot? Could move Leisure up and have him and Stotts compete for 157. How sure are we Carr will go up to 165 though? If he stays put I would think we could put Judge, Mulder, or Schumacher out at 165 without it being a massive hole in the lineup. A lot of possibilities for sure and I'm very curious what the staff will wind up doing.
 
Degen's primary advantage and why he is so successful at 149 is his height. I don't see any way he goes up to 157. Parker would also be small for 149. I think this last off season was hopefully a light bulb moment for Gomez and he comes back focused next year
 
Really like the Colbray move. What is really exciting is that we now have at least six guys with very reasonable shots to AA. While most of them seem to be on the fringes right now, putting them in positions to peak and break through in March is right in Dresser’s wheelhouse. Im betting the blood round at Nationals is going to be a blast for us.

Marcus just lost to #10 kid from Campbell in 2nd sudden victory. Give Marcus a little time to get used to 184 and he will be solid
