Great day to be a Badger!

Wyatt DuChateau to Minnesota.

Another one gone. 😢

I would bet all 3 ndsu wrestlers follow Kish to Oklahoma. Not a 100% bet but all 3 have 1 year left and they are Kish guys.

Pentz going HWT I believe is more of the Sooners have Stephen Buchanan in the mix at 197 for the Sooners.

Anything goes with today's NIL deals so hold on

[littleguy301]

Sounds like Minnesota.

Pentz from NDSU(who beat Amos at NCAAs) is also in the portal. Sounds like he wants to go HWT.

MN is building something that could be very good

Yes they just landed the top recruits in the nation at 184,197 and HWT. Word on the street they maybe landing another top 3 recruit at a lower weight plus they still have some really good recruits just wrapping up their redshirt year so......not saying they are PSU air.but Minnesota is holding their own in the recruiting and as a team.

The gopher wrestling club is loaded with upper weight kids. The gophers will do real well on the recruiting trail for upper weight kids.

Not shabby on the lower weight coaches either,not as stronge but good staff.

Not sure how deep the pockets are but they do well in raising money and getting athletes paid.

So, just for fun, since MN an WI are more comparable than say comparing with PSU or Iowa, let's compare what MN might have going on that the UW doesn't these days. More NIL $$? If so, how much and where is MN getting theirs from? RTC? Outside of Stevenson, what big names are stocking the shelf? Who is the RTC coach there?

Is this current surge a temporary bump or has MN been consistently surging in recent years?

Coach: Troy Steiner
Atheletes: Gable, Zimmer, Webster

What does the Badger program need to do to start landing top in state talent?

Rtc practices with qualified atheletes?
Raise more money?

Your combining 2 classes and they still are not all ranked #1. They got McEnelly who is #1 at 195 in 2023. Gavin Nelson who is the 4th best 220/285 in his 2023 class. Of course Hopke is #1 but he is class of 2024. What does that mean for Tabor? No one debates Minnesotas upper weights, but a lot of those good recruits who just wrapped up their redshirt year are now leaving. They lost Spratley, Jamison, and Nagao all who likely could have been starters this year and all highly ranked.  Spratley was a top 5 overall recruit in his class and Nagao showed he is a title threat.

Yeah, it wasn't long ago people were ringing the alarm bells asking what's going on at Minnesota, why are so many guys leaving...particularly their freshmen Nagao who took 5th in...one of the better weight classes in terms of depth. Vito, RBY, Fix, and McGee...who in a given year could easily be a NC.

I think all were ranked number 1 at one time. All top 5 which is very good to say the least.

Gophers still have some pretty good freshmen on the roster. Yes certainly losing nago, spratley and Jamieson does really hurt for sure but they still have some very good recruits in that freshmen class that redshirted this year. Plus a late recruit that is a sleeper and some verbal from some really good high schoolers have them on the map.

Landing wyatt d is a very nice recruit along with 3 other wisco sin kids makes the next 2 years good recruiting classes for the gophers.
