Wrestling Lineup Updates?
- Thread starter LeadersWifeLife
- Start date
Have to add Aidan Riggins to the mix probably at 165 or 174, apparently transferred over and already in school.
What’s the rules here? I don’t know how any of this works. Not sure if anyone knows how it works. Was he given a release from Iowa (is that even a thing any more). To my knowledge he was never in the transfer portal.
Not sure on it, but he's definitely enrolled at ISU.
Huge add, he was a stud coming out of high school and working out with Carr, Metcalf, and St John is a huge upgrade over the Iowa staff
No chance, unless one of the “inside” posters comment differently.
I don’t think there is any way Chittum doesn’t wrestle. He would not lose to Euton for the 165 spot.
He’s like 24 years old and made 141 relatively easy last year. I’m sure he was tired of cutting weight when he was interviewed and would rather not cut but there is no guarantee he beats Paniro at 149. Also, will the looser bump up and take on Chittum for 157 or has he fully committed to RS? My whole point is I doubt anyone including Dresser knows what the lineup will look like the 1st couple events w/o Paniro let alone what it will like once Paniro is eligible to compete.
Paniro was on the Saturday morning wrestling show on KXNO and said the plan right now is for Ech to go down to 141 and he was going to 149. He said it might change but that's the plan right now.
Not knowing because Dresser has said that this lineup won't be settled for a while. If Ech goes 141, I think Paniro goes 149 and Chittum back at 157. Casey redshirts. This saves Chittum's redshirt for more flexibility in the future.
I haven't heard the Gaitan to 165 except on this board and a couple on Iowa board, which probably came from here. I think Gaitan stays at 174 and Riggins, Euton, Rojas battle for 165. (Assuming Riggins is eligible)

Our best lineup by far has Ech at 141. Need to have two of Paniro/Chittum/Swiderski at 149/157. Then I think you feel okay with whoever comes out on top of the Euton/Rojas/Riggins battle for 165.
Takedown Wrestling on KXNO, 8-10 AM Saturdays. They talk to coaches & wrestlers from around the country. Hosted by Scott Casber. Good show. I wish they would put the shows on Spotify, etc as podcasts.

If Ech can’t make 141, and he ends up at 149 with Paniro at 157, I feel very good about Jacob Frost at 141. Ideally Ech is at 141, but Frost has had a very good offseason
