Has everyone finally realized Blaze 133 and Ono will RS?
Do you have a public source you can share? I don’t necessarily doubt your intel—I only ask because many lineup decisions in our recent past are revealed after the start of the season. Sometimes much later.

He will be wrestling a tournament in Japan in November and December. Imagine Cael will address it when asked at media day. Plan hasn't changed RS and wrestle next year as they fight for another year

I’ll be sure to ask him, thx. That all was my assumption/understanding for most of this offseason but there seemed to be some recent rumors of the 2nd year being closer to realization than previously stated.

Thank you for the unprovoked condescension. Perhaps you could've just said

I think Cael gives Corby special inside intel because they’re both bald.

It’s the bald guys mafia.

Is it any wonder how Willie got to be so plugged into the program as well.

Nagao/ Davis they will figure it out maybe at Clarion. 157 I think Duke will wrestle and Kasak RS
If Blaze and Ono are both RS'g. why would Nagao/Davis be wrestling off?
NVM I thought your earlier post said Blaze was rS'g ... my bad

Willie landing all those recruits over the years might have played a role.
Everyone laughs about that but he's definitely helped with a few. I'm not gonna name them. I always knew when it was Cael calling him he would walk away 🤣.

Well rumor, conjecture, inside info or total BS will be revealed soon enough....maybe. Blaze gets 5 dates and he can still RS so seeing him early is not definitive proof.

However, Nagao's shirt is gone so he is burning a year even with a past medical. Davis, and I suspect Ono don't have that same true freshman 5 dates protection, so if we see either of them early on they are committed to the year, and burning their shirts.

Nov 14th, whomever goes at 133 and 141 could/should tell us 1/2 the picture (141).

I REALLY hope we get to see Ono early on in some open tourneys unattached. The anticipation is palpable.

Strategy and the unknown of Ono getting a second year aside, I really think it comes down to the coaches assessing whether or not he has the top and bottom game to go with Jesse Mendez. If Nick Lee can ride him like a pony, and get out at will, the case for a RS is very strong. We will see, but we have the perfect talent in the room to know pretty much exactly where Ono's transition to folk stands.

I would like to see Blaze RS and then run the table Zain like albeit for 4 years, but if you take a step back, 133 Blaze, 141 Nagao makes a lot of sense if Nagao can still manage 141.

I would not be surprised if the gap between Davis and Nagao, if any, is very slight, so why burn a shirt there?

So you guys have no insiders here? Nobody knows that Blaze is 133 and Ono has 2 tournaments in Japan this year? Someone has to know this stuff🤷

Ribs take awhile my guess is it will be Mirasola for the first 5-6 weeks. Haven't heard the severity of the injury yet. But if it was bad he would obviously receive a medical
