I love Reeves and Anderson. We need Ridge Lovett to keep pace and continue to build depth at the lower weights. Almost all top 2019 recruits are locked up already. Jace Luchau and/or Turley would be huge too. Jace fills a bigger need.Man, a couple of kids there that we were after on some level. I can't call it a "loss" as there are other talented kids out there but I think it goes to show how big of a challenge we have to get back to respectability.
BTW, who was it that insisted earlier this spring that Iowa was a dying program and on the way down?

What is considered respectability to you is the key component to that statement I guess? The team should be much improved this year and it is trending in the right direction. Respectability for me would be top 20 this year and continued improvement in the coming years.
Which of those we were after? The schrievers were a lock to Iowa. There was never any doubt there. It's like saying I was after Cindy Crawford in college. Wasn't going to happen, I could take a flier but there was 0 chance.
It might not have been the exact word I should have used, to be honest. Maybe I should have said prominence.
We made a hard run at him and developed strong ties. Not saying you're wrong but a serius effort was being made which was made which was a element of my point.

I like the 125 lb we got better anyways..

No. I know there has been interest there from Jace, but the money isn't there to get him here it sounds like. They could be interchangeable at 57/65, I just don't think it's going to happen.Has Jace ever visited Iowa State? I was under the impression that he would be Carr's weight and not a high priority. Not sure on the plan for Carr; I kind of assumed he will stay at 157 for a while and was told 165 is a priority weight

You're so dramatic
It will be kind of cool to see in a couple of years how the Iowa boys progress and battle each other. Thomsen (Nebraska), Reeves (ISU), Teske (PSU), Schriever (Iowa). I like our chancesI like the 125 lb we got better anyways..
