Those were the last rankings on this site anyway (as of Feb 5th):

BTW - Blanton was originally committed to the Hawks. However they called him in November and said that they needed to reduce his scholarship for his first year to 60%. He pulled his committment from Iowa immediately and committed to Illinois.
You could be right, but the parings, on the Illinois High School Athletice Association website, show Blanton wrestling Spangler in the semis, which leads me to believe they are 2 and 3. Foreside's half of the bracket looks like he would face the #4 seed in the semis (Clayton Kendall or Pete Damiani). Otherwise Blanton could be the 4th seed and Spangler 1, but that is doubtful, because Blanton is 37-0.
