Recruiting

Looks like Karson Brown finished 5th. Appeared to be several close matches last few rounds. Excited about the future of another group of brothers!

He wrestled tough, had a slight let down in consi-semis(wanted him to wrestle Botero) but still great job in a tough tournament.

Tyler DeKraker has committed to tOSU. He had taken an official visit here but I never thought we had a legit shot

I would hope they are after him but I haven't seen anything concrete. I know he visited NCST, Nebraska and Rutgers so far

Apparently Coach Headlee was at the Compound (Bassett's club) earlier this week. If this means they are trying to establish footing with the BMC crew that is a very good sign.

Can be such negative Ice Holes on here sometimes . Its sad or more pathetic that this forum has become place for a few "has been" or should I say more likely "never was been" to come and talk to 4 other similarly credentialed people about how bad the Pitt kids and coaches suck on regular basis. while completely overlooking or sometimes blatantly ignoring positives around the program that , frankly, the wrestling community outside some on this forum have noticed for sure. Just ask the Other div 1 coaches about Pitt right now . " Young, talented, team with a lot of potential that seems to be getting better and better and can wrestling with just about anyone in the country at almost every weight class . looking at top 15 team with top 10 potential with mostly Freshmen and sophomores in the line up. " that's from Div. 1 coach.. where is that on here?? and yes they get recruits. you cant do what they are doing without talent .. its in the room and more young talent coming in as well.

It’s never about being negative and the people that are on here that respond daily, it’s because they care and want to see this team succeed. that’s the point of a forum is to discuss negatives and positives and it’s never pointed directly at any individual kid that is busting his ass. It is regarding the program and when you wrestled, coached and saw the kids that come out of the hot bed of Wrestling and our program never being in the top 15(rarely)there’s a problem. What is it? That’s the question we all have. And again it’s all because we care very deeply. going to NCAA’s every year for the last 12 years wearing Pitt gear spending thousands of dollars and seeing few all Americans(nothing on a consistent basis). is it administration and lack of support, is it the coaching staff and developmental, RTC, or Nil Money. again that’s what this forum is for and what everybody discusses Because we wanna see this program succeed at the highest level.
