If he can reasonably hold 157 this year, then next year is the right year to shirt him.
I’m curious why anybody thinks that he’s going to take a red shirt at some point? based on what logic seems to me over the last decade the history has been you either redshirt coming out of high school as a true freshman or you don’t redshirt outside of injury. Or of course Olympic redshirt. Especially in this day and age of NIL I think it’s less incentive to redshirt if you don’t do out of the shoot. Just curious if this is guessing or some sound logic I’m missing.

Because a few PSU guys have done it in the past. Nico and Zain are the two I can think of and it paid off for them.

Ok. This is getting nuts with talent, but I’ll give it a whirl.

125 Howard
133 Nagao
141 Bartlett
149 SVN
157 Haines/Mesenbrink
165 Facundo/Haines/Mesenbrink
174 Starocci
184 Truax
197 Brooks
HWT Kerk

This is assuming no OLY RS. OLY RS by Starocci and Brooks creates some changes.
Perfect lineup we “ALL” want. Break records and get the #1 class for 2025 again $$$$$$

It’s a gauntlet even if Star &/or Brooks redshirt

I think Carter S and A Brooks will both be wrestling since both lost during trails. Brooks made finals and lost to DT. Be great to go for 10 Champ’s. Always been a goal of Cael’s.

I think Starocci is rehabbing from a knee injury he incurred/aggravated in his bout with Dieringer. Any news on how he’s doing? Will Carter be ready for the season?

Most of us are aware of the Olympic redshirt possibility for those in PSU's lineup. The below Flo article addresses that, as well as competing at Bill Farrell and Senior Nationals. It seems we may be wondering about/speculating about/discussing the lineup even after the start of the season.

If an Olympic year is in the cards for some of these guys, go for it. Make the best of it, don’t look back.

It’s been a while since we’ve had 10 qualifiers…

With the season ramping up, went through YouTube, watched a few NCAA wrestling vids. More and more the projection is Haines going to 165.

FWIW the season roster isn't even out yet. Guess that'll just come out the day of the Journeymen Classic, at this rate. There will be no traditional media day this year. The first media session will be one day early next week. So, we'll get some answers soon.

If I was a betting man, Haines isn't going 165 this year
no insider info on my part at all, just a few different talking heads stating Levi had difficulty staying at 157 last season, and he has grown and it could be more problematic this season.

There was definitely some talk of this earlier in the offseason but I think we're beyond that point for this year.
