Jimmy Cinnabon 68 Report post Posted February 1 NJ has a lot of great talent, but Rutgers isn't getting enough of the elite guys. Suriano seems to have regressed in the room. Ashnault is unlikely to get another year. I think they need to sack Goodale and bring in a superstar a la Dake, Burroughs or DT. Short of that I see them being a solid, but not top-10 team every year. Maybe hovering in the 12-14 range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Housebuye 1,362 Report post Posted February 1 Ashnault can’t get another year...he is already a 3 time AA. Suriano has not regressed. Come on. Rutgers is far better than they have ever been and you want to get rid of Goodale? The logic isn’t flowing. 1 AMastrandrea reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The logic isn’t flowing. you are also ignoring their best recruiting class ever coming up Suriano went from being a top 2 125 pounder (who beat the eventual national champ soundly) to a 133 pounder in the 4-5 range who took consecutive losses this season. Not sure how that could be called anything but regression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not agreeing with the regression thing at all but 125 last year was pretty deep. you had returning finalists in Cruz and Lizak, 4th placer Picc returning, former AA Moisey, former champ and 3x AA Nato dropping back down, Lee coming in of course, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This years 133 those tiers are not as defined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fact that you could write "I think" when clearly you do not should be actionable. Do you have no job? No family? Nothing better to do than be a dumb ass? Why do people hate Cael? Really? The dude is freaking beloved and arguably the best college wrestler AND college coach ever. Your "thoughts" on Rutgers?? Seriously? Here's a thought - STFU. You are a complete negative to this board since your recent arrival. The only possible saving grace is that you were a dbag under a different name and this is just break-even stupidity. 1 Show_Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy Cinnabon 68 Report post Posted February 1 So those who disagree with the idea of Suriano regressing...so you think he is a better wrestler this year, than when he was at PSU? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoachWrestling 173 Report post Posted February 1 Let’s be real here, the reason Rutgers can’t recruit out of state is because New Jersey guidos are insufferable to be around. You went to spend the majority of your time around a full team of New Jersey guidos? Not a chance. 1 LHN94 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure how that could be called anything but regression. This is so disingenuous your entire argument is based around his 2 losses this season. Holding the Fix one against him is insane. I’m just going to assume you agree here. So...the entire argument is based around giving up a last second takedown to DeSanto at Carver. I assume you agree that Kyle Snyder regressed from his junior to senior seasons too then. He took a loss to Coon his senior year and didn’t have any losses his junior year you are also completely ignoring his dominance over phillipi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TobusRex 1,118 Report post Posted February 1 It's very easy for Rutgers to become a top 10 team. All they have to do is hire Cael. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ironmonkey 121 Report post Posted February 2 They aren't that far off really. They have had multiple AAs the last few seasons and their dual meet attendance and atmosphere are great. New Brunswick as a destination for out of state recruits who don't value the access to NYC probably works against them a bit but not much the coaches can do about that.

TBar1977 2,612 Report post Posted February 2 Rutgers can start by beating Princeton tomorrow. Goodale said after last night's loss to Nebraska that today would be a tough practice for Rutgers. I wonder what short term impact that will have on the RU wrestlers, either positive OR negative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope someone like Gary Wayne Harding ends up going on a run and beats Fix and Micic. Sort of like Tariq Wilson. 4th at ACCs, 3rd at NCAAs, and none of the 3 who placed ahead of him at ACCs placed at NCAAs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
