He's there because it is what is best for the team. He won't be going down (or up for that matter because let's be real he would win at 145 if he wanted) unless it is determined that is what is best for the team.
Agreed, think RBY would win it at 32, 38,45,and 52...

so he went all the way to Illinois after the season started missed a week a school just to train?? When he has the best coach in az plus the only person that has that type of connection with IZZY is m bravo, the same guy who called my son personally and put in his head he should transfer, but not a division 1 and we can come back to sunnyside next year, huh that’s weird...
How about them Astros!!!

Ybarra doesn’t have Larkin as his coach (Best coach in AZ) Anthony is a good coach though.

I don’t care why he went. All I know is he hasn’t moved up there. Just talked to the young man myself the other day.

Best Coach in AZ with no State titles....far reach right there. If your basis for best coach is developing individual talent...you missed the boat by not going with Bravo. National connections aside, he has developed serious talent in AZ for decades (and yes, including helping Both Larkins as well)...unless of course you were just trying to "hate" a bit for no purpose whatsoever. Obviously, he was trying to help you and your boy out...No need to keep hating wrestlinfan.

Roster and certification finishing up. Charley Boyle from Westwood was Section Champ and should be fully grown into weight class. Keegan Arthur (Mountain Point) solid as well.

Richards from Mountain View and Figueroa from Highland are both 113 now but may be able to wrestle at 108.

K Arthur possibly, but I watched Chandler 106 kid beat Boyles at Megatron and I heard that kid walks around at about 103.

Hey bud you & I normally agree but I did a double take with Hollen #2 at 182? He was giving up 15 lbs last year & made the finals at 195. He is also a Fargo Freestyle AA. It's my opinion but I'd put him at #1. (I do agree the Tucson kid is tough) Hollen won't be anywhere near 182s though. He's way too big. 195s all the way.
My son and I stood right by him at Fargo. He made 182 for both styles. If he wants to wrestle 182 He can certainly make it. Whether he wants to or not, I have no idea. But he can definitely make the weight
