WVU moves up to #23 in recruiting

[aacoach61]

WIN Magazine released its top 35 school rankings for D-1 recruiting. WVU went from unranked to the #23 spot. WIN noted that Coach Flynn got commitments from 5 high school state champs and a national prep place winner from 5 different states.

Other Big 12 schools in the top 35 were Iowa State (#3); Missouri (#6); Oklahoma State (#18); Northern Iowa (#19); Oklahoma (#21); Wyoming (#25); Northern Colorado (#26); North Dakota State (#28); and South Dakota State (##29).

Conley looks ready to go year one. Does Flynn usually go with the automatic RS for most freshman or what? I know Hall wrestled as a true freshman but it was the free year so it’d of been pointless not to with your best guy.

I watched his Q&A he did last week or the week before and he said we will definitely see him with the new NCAA rules about competing so many times before it counting. Kind of like football, they can play in up to 4 games without it counting and still being able to redshirt.

Flo just did their rundown on the recruiting class rankings.

I scrolled down to see who was on WVU's incoming list of recruits. Flo's overview stopped at #20.

No mention of WVU in the Honorable Mention comments either.

I guess Flo wasn't impressed and WVU is going to have to do their talking on the mat.

I do like Conley a lot. Pretty sure he could start somewhere for wvu immediately but I doubt that’ll happen.

How about the 2023 class. Is our top guy the Watters kid out of PA?

Titus is going to be wrestling 141?? Didn’t see that coming. He must of put on some muscle.

Lautzenheiser is now a 141 on Ohio states roster.

Didn’t Dolan commit to WVU as well in 23 class?

Didn’t Dolan commit to WVU as well in 23 class?

That was the word on one of the streets I traveled on over a month ago.

In addition, Caleb Rea is now at Cleveland State.

Oh yeah I forgot about that. What’s interesting is, unlike football, wrestling has tournaments. Do you use up a couple of his four times being eligible to wrestle in tournaments or duals?
Plus didn’t they change the rule on wrestling unattached?
