He doesn't look like a big 165, but he does have a good size frame, and his father is a bigger man. I think Jon would grow into 174 next year and be and title contender by his junior year. He might even be one next year.
I think the move would be more of a team thing (Varner is looking to move to 197 to make room for another tough freshman - Jerome Ward). Reader would be the best option at 174 next year, unless Billy Lewis of Bettendorf improves in the offseason.
