He'll have to sit out a year if he goes D1 so he'd have 2 years of eligibility left starting fall of 2018, correct?

I'm know thats normally the case for basketball and football, but I thought I remembered other wrestlers transferring and being eligible immediately. I could be wrong.

He was given full release so will have three years, unless he goes to another Big Ten program which I don't think he will do.

He would be immediately eligible at the NAIA, JUCO, DII, DIII levels.

I wondered if wrestling had a different set of rules on transfers but my brain locked up for some reason. Not the first or last time I'm sure.

Ross, obviously a BI6 programs doesn't make much sense. Any indications or guesses where he might end up?

Iowa State at 157 might work. I assume Allar will be 165 and Verkleeren, Leisure at 149.

UNI has Steiert, P Moore at 157/165. both young guys

I have a strong feeling both UNI and/or ISU are going to get a call. He'd like to be closer to home, but he'll still listen to other schools

Steiert has been looking good at 165. That move might be permanent

 

[NYWRESTLER94]

Does he beat diblasi if he goes to isu?

 

[buf87]

Yeah, I am not sure. I haven't heard what the main interest will be weight wise. DiBlasi and Straw are becoming pleasant surprises this year. Had heard talk of DiBlasi going 165 in the future

 

[buf87]

SDSU is my new guess

 

[RossIAwrestle]

SDSU is my new guess

I think there is some level of interest for ISU, UNI, SDSU, and Mizzou at the moment. I am imagining things are going to be pretty fluid.

 

[ca4cy]

SDSU is my new guess

I wondered about NDSU with the Kish-Minnesota connection especially if he's leaving Minny on decent terms, but if he wants to get closer to home as Ross indicates that wouldn't fit the bill.

 

[buf87]

I would imagine he is going to be transferred by the start of 2nd semester

Let's hope we steer clear of this kid.

 

[cyclonenation5]

Let's hope we steer clear of this kid.

Why's that?

 

[NEICyFan]

Why's that?

The kid has some pretty big issues. Minn isn't sad to see him go.

The kid has some pretty big issues. Minn isn't sad to see him go.

Can you explain further??

 

[CloneWR]

When some transfer, it really means they got kicked off.

 

[NYWRESTLER94]

When some transfer, it really means they got kicked off.

He couldn't make 149 anymore and wanted to be a starter which wasn't happening with short at 157
