somedude202 6 Report post Posted August 8, 2020 Where is your team's "pipeline state" for recruiting and how did it start (if you know). For example, I root for Michigan State and a large part of our lineup Cali. Coach Chandler did an interview where he said the pipeline started when he did a trip out to California with Dave Dean to talk to coaches about the NUWAY system. From the relationships he built then he's been able to recruit several hammers from California (Omania, Enriquez, Saldate, Lujan, etc) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Idaho 1,397 Report post Posted August 8, 2020 Oregon State has a majority from Oregon on their roster, but not all the elite of Oregon (i.e. Wittlake). . Washington and California are fairly evenly represented after that. The level of recruit has increased with the new staff at OSU. Some of the higher ranked kids out of Oregon are starting to sign such as Whisenhunt and Barnes so far. Of the new class it looks like California is well represented - to be expected with CP and IMAR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JBluegill133 289 Report post Posted August 9, 2020 Illinois seems to pick up a lot of studs from California...although this may have been during the Perry era...but they did sign Maximo Renteria and I know Tirapelle and Flores who coach for Buchanan are alum so the heavy recruiting may still be intact.

balanceseeker 126 Report post Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) Good topic. When Tom Ryan took over at Ohio State he stole a line from Jim Tressell and said he wanted to "build a fence around Ohio". One of the big knocks people had on Russ Hellickson is that he didn't recruit Northeast Ohio very well and never got the top St. Ed kids, who left and won NCAA titles at other big 10 schools(Holman, Disabato, Ramsey, and Rowlands all Central Ohio guys). This changed when Jagggers came during Russ' final year and Lance Palmer was actually a Hellickson recruit that re committed to Tom Ryan. Ryan subsequently signed other St. Ed studs Sean Nemec, Colin Palmer, Mark Martin, and more recently Cade Hepner and Paddie Gallagher. Ryan also did a better job with northeastern Ohio as a whole getting guys like Pucillo, Johnstone, Jameson, Tomasello, and Decatur. Interesting, the pipeline to the other Ohio High school powerhouse Graham seemed to be non-existing until Bo Jordan came. Subsequent Jordans, Bojo on the coaching staff, and Jeff Jordan's business relationship with OSU guys like Rowlands and Leng through RUDIS seems to indicate that this pipeline is likely to stay open for the forseeable future. While Ryan's early teams were Ohio heavy, his recent squad's have a mix of Ohio guys and out of state blue chippers. The eastern states are fertile ground for a lot of coaches and Maryland (Snyder and Martin) and PA (Pletcher, Smith and Sasso) have been particularly fruitful for Coach Ryan. Last years Ohio State Lineup 125-Heinselman-Colorado 133-Decatur-Ohio 141-Pletcher-PA 149-Sasso-PA 157-Cleary-FLorida/Kinner-New Jersey 165-Smith-PA 174-Romero-Ohio 184-Rocky-Ohio 197-Moore-Ohio Heavy-Traub-Ohio So 50% Ohio.

Sheerstress 174 Report post Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) For a long time Michigan had a solid pipeline to St. Eds in Ohio. That was slightly upset by Tom Ryan as noted, but they still get good wrestlers from there. Blair has also been a good source of talent. More recently, St. John's has probably been the most consistent. Edited August 9, 2020 by Sheerstress Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously Ryan Bertin, Mike K, Hrovat were good one's that ended up moving the state to the North. Elinsky, Heffernans, Roger Chandler, Sam Neider, Ryan Lang, and Al Fried were all great St. Ed's guys that Russ missed on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
