klehner 387 Report post Posted March 5, 2020 7 hours ago, Cptafw164 said: Koll is going for coach of the year. First is telling Darmstadt, “I think you can win NCAAs at 184.” The second great decision on the year was what you said. the third genius decision was koll telling Bama, “I think 174 is the best weight for you. 165 is too much of a cut with someone of your frame. BTW, tell Darmstadt to come see me. I want to talk to him about how his frame is perfect for 184. ” next thing we will hear from Koll is that Greg D will take a gap year. Vito stays at 125 to open up a slot for...nobody...at 133. It’s not like a lineup of Greg, Vito, Saunders, yianni, as the first 4 would be good. I'm surprised that Rob Koll allows you in the room when he has these discussions. Were you there when he told Vito to stay at 125, or when he asked Honis to cut back to 197? How'd those work out for them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No but I was there to watch Ben Honis try to move up to heavyweight in 2018 and struggle at that. Darmstadt to 184 was disaster from the start. I agree with @Cptafw164, if his decisions to cut weight are so full proof like you believe, why has he never asked Womack to move back down to 165?

I think there is a lot more to the story. But feel free assume it is all on Koll. You're right no walk in the park, but it will seriously be difficult. As for Berreyesa I really haven't understood the last two years. Solid recruit out of high school and has shown flashes in the duals that he's wrestled but feel like he really hasn't developed anything in the room since HS.

Straw man argument: I never said his decisions to cut weight are so fool-proof. How did his swapping Palacio and Realbuto turn out for them? Honis couldn't beat Darmstadt at 197: should he have just not wrestled, or try to fit in at 285 as best he could? Maybe Koll and Womack *together* decided that he would prefer 174? We can ask Capt. Army, since he was there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honis would have been the best Heavy on Cornell's roster imo but as soon as Darmstadt got hurt, Koll had Honis go back to 197. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2018, when Darmstadt got to Cornell, he was named the starter. He had one loss in the regular season before a semi-slide to 6th at NCAA. That same year, Honis went 7-3 as his backup at 197 and started experimenting as a very light 285 to mixed results (kept things close but mostly lost). In 2019, Honis spent the offseason bulking up only to have to shed back to 197 when Darmstadt got hurt. But for Darmstadt's lost year, it worked out pretty well.

kyleinthecircle 7 Report post Posted March 5, 2020 Regardless, I see Darmstadt getting it done this weekend as well as Tucker as EIWA champions. Not sure about how the others but as far as bubble guys I think Baughman and Richard get it done. Loew could but Stefanik has looked so good lately. If he qualifies, Cornell will have 6 to nationals. If not I predict 5. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And obviously Womack, who has the "gold status" as he meets all three criteria for a bid. Didn't think I had to list him, as he is pretty much a shoo-in whether he gets top 4 or not.

Could definitely see Lajoie stealing that 7th spot, as he already has the wins of Manchio and Hellickson. Depends on where he gets drawn into the bracket.
