Penn State's 14-15 Lineup; Times, They Are A Chang'in

[Flying-Tiger 617]

We may very well see 6 new starters for PSU this season.

 

125: Conaway (Mega redshirt)
133: Gulibon
141: Moss (Zain Redshirt)
149: Beitz/Frey (Alton out with injury)
157: Law (Alton out with injury)
165: Hammond
174: Brown
184: McCutcheon
197: McIntosh
285: Lawson

 

 If they win it this year, Cael may actually get some credit, lol. 

[jammen 340]

If Retherford red shirts PSU will drop into the B1G's lower tier with Indiana, Purdue, Maryland, Rutgers, and Michigan St.

What happened to the Alton's?

[CoachWrestling 436]

Wow, what a change is right.

if psu wins with that lineup, I'll be the first one singing his praises

What happened to the Alton's?

Both are injured.  I have been told that Andrew's may be a career-ender.

Conaway may be the second best wrestler in the lineup.

 Conaway is a goer.....the kinda guy that can set the tone for the rest of the team........kinda like Zain but without the accolades.

What about Rashid. I thought he had a solid chance of starting as a true freshman.

Has anyone heard how Shakur Rashid is doing in the room.. I thought there was talk of him possibly being able to start as a true freshman.

I have not heard anything, but I won't be shocked if we end up seeing Corey this year. 

 

If we are going the redshirt route as now is expected, I am more interested in the 2015-2016 line up.

 

125 Conoway in his 4th year on campus as Mega gets Oly redshirt

133 Gulibon

141 Zain who would probably be the favorite by then

149 Beitz or Moss

157 Nolf

165 Corey Rasheed or Hammond

174 Rasheed or Hammond

184 Bo Nickal

197 McIntosh 

Hwt. Nevills

 

That is a very good line up. Maybe McCutcheon is at 184 and Nickal at 174. Beitz at 149. Never know until you see them wrestle.

It's going to be a long year for "We are..."

Not really. I can be patient knowing that we are simply reloading. 

[GranbyTroll 454]

I thought Conaway was the backup 133?

He was, as in past tense. He dropped to 125 halfway thru last year. Looked pretty good in several matches.

RE: "Times that are A Chang' In"

 

At risk of stating some of the obvious…….how bout we check back in with the BT results after Christmas.

 

And, the group of ten that Cael puts out there ? I'll hold off my opinion until well into Dec. I want to see just

 

how tough this years (Penn State) group will get…….down the road a piece--that is.

 

A handful , or so , in the current group that could go deep into the tourney.

I apologize for the double post followed by a third post on the same subject.  I did not think my posts were being received.  It will be interesting to see what Sanderson decides to do with the lineup.  I think it is a wise move to redshirt as many guys as he can to set the foundation for another four year title run.

I'd predict a 4th-6th B1G finish for that bunch. It will be interesting to see how they develop as the year goes on.

4th sounds about right. If we are going to redshirt a bunch of guys at the same time that Iowa, Minny and Ohio State have deep squads and are going all out to win a championship and redshirting no one that could be the #1 guy at a given weight, then Penn State at 4th is about right.

 

Not that this will be an uninteresting year. Far from it. There will still be a lot of very good wrestlers in the line up, an d there will be several great young guys wrestling in Open Tournaments. Fans will always be intrigued by what the high end red shirted freshman is doing in these tournaments, and Penn State will have several of them.
