Breske announces on Twitter.
;D
that is exciting. Does he has 2 or three years of eligibility?
Good get. Could fill in for Christensen next year depending on what happens with Dow/Wick and some much needed depth to the upper weights.
Welcome home Beau Breske !
Welcome home!! Glad to see you wearing the right red!!!
Good to hear! After you start your eligibility, I believe you have 5 years to complete 4. You can get a 6th year with a medical redshirt. He was injured his 1st year, but I believe he has to use his typical redshirt first. If so, I think best case scenario is he starts at semester and wrestles this year or provides depth at the upper weights. If he was eligible, I am sure he could step in at 197 the 2nd semester and at least keep a lot of matches close, which is more than we have now.
Next year would then be his final year Corrected to say he should have two years after this year and he could compete for a starting spot with Dow at 174.
Hope he can finish his career healthy. In college, it seems he has been tough to score on, but has not had much offense against the better wrestlers. I know he had good training partners in Nebraska, but hopefully Reader and Askren can work with him to better develop his offense so he can finish his career strong.
Excited to see what Beau can do. He will be motivated and I think Coach Reader and Coach Askren will be great for him.
Great news. Welcome home.
Sounds like he will be looking at a starting spot.
Back to his natural state. LOVE to see him shine.
Awesome news! So when can he technically start wrestling for the Badgers, next Semester? If so, when exactly does that start?
Based on what I have read and heard, I am pretty sure Beau can compete for a varsity spot starting 2nd semester. I am sure the coaching staff has a plan in place.
It will be interesting to see how he fits into the team. It is great to add his awesome talent! I would presume he has to wrestle unattached until the official enrollment date in mid-January.
Awesome!
SO with wrestling a transfer within the Big Ten does not have a mandatory, "sit out" period correct?
So far this year
Paul Konrath transferred from Wisconsin to Indiana this summer and is wrestling this fall
Joey Gunther transferred from Iowa to Illinois this summer and is wrestling this fall
One main example from last year
Nick Suriano transferred from Penn State to Rutgers in the summer and wrestled the whole season
For mid-season transfers in the Big Ten, I don't think they have been able to wrestle right away in the past. It seems like the rules have been loosened up considerably though. Other conferences have allowed transfers to compete in the 2nd semester. I think the key point is the wrestler cannot compete attached for two schools in one season.
My uneducated guess is Mason to 197 and Beau to 184?

Nope
Awesome
Maybe I'm failing at reading between the lines, but...
Is Beau able to join the lineup this year or not?
Things may have changed with regards to NCAArules but they used to have a 24 credit/last 2 semesters rule.....meaning you have to pass 24 credits in your last 2 semesters to be eligible. Not sure if that rule is still in effect but if Beau withdrew in the middle of a semester and didn't get any credits, he would need to pass 24 credits before next Fall to be eligible for the beginning of the 2019 season.
Any one who knows more details, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
