is it possible that our state tournament system (ie. no wrestlebacks, unclassed, etc.) is part of the reason the DII and DIII Indiana schools have been so successful. Wabash and UIndy understand what it means to be a 4x semi-state qualifier, that understanding of our system may give them an advantage in recruiting the DI caliber talent in Indiana that gets passed over by the big boys because they don't have the "state tournament" resume.

 

Does anybody seriously think Riley Lefever (1x IN state runner-up) is a DIII level wrestler, probably half the guys on that list could at least compete for a varsity spot in a lot of DI rooms.

 

Not really arguing in favor or against anything just a thought I had, Indiana's B1G programs have been mediocre for a while but our other programs (Wabash, Uindy, InTech, Trine, etc.) have seen quite a bit of success.

In the past we have had way too many wrestlers go to DI that really should not have. I am glad to see that we are gradually changing the "DI or bust" attitude the state has had. Just because you could be a starter in DI, doesn't mean you should go there.

 

In the case of Riley, since I have been close to him, he was very late bloomer. He got a rough draw at semi-state as a junior and should have been a state qualifier or low placer. He has matured greatly even since his senior year of high school.

I do agree that some of Indiana's smaller schools are having success because the top tier programs overlook some of our guys, and I do think we have some guys that could compete at D1 level. That being said, if most of the guys were in a D1 Big Ten program, they may not have the success because the Big Ten is brutal. Not a knock on the wrestler, just a compliment to how deep the Big Ten is.
