The Citadel from South Carolina is NCAA DI and had three qualifiers this season.

[ManBearPig 3]

I believe he's referring to which state they wrestled high school in

[FalconWrestling 147]

There aren't any D1 programs in Florida or Georgia and other southeastern states. This refers to high school origin

There is a DI program in the southeast. It's The Citadel in South Carolina. Thanks for clarifying it's the state from which they attended high school. The Citadel's three are from Michigan, Florida, and NJ (by way of Mongolia).

[FalconWrestling 147]

I know every D1 program there is since there aren't many. Ugi (the Mongolian) is one of my favorite wrestlers to watch. But ya my syntax was pretty ambiguous. I like how Kentucky has a lot more total qualifiers then states that talk smack about us.

[Mpire 76]

A D1. , champ would shut a lot of people up !!!!

[Nkawtg 137]

Cornell had a national champ a few years back from Tennessee. Jordan Leen, unless I'm mistaken.

[FalconWrestling 147]

Yes Jordan Leen was from Tenessee, Franklin Gomez was from Florida by way of Puerto Rico, and there were two southern Olympians on the Olympic team (Haze and Frayer from Florida). That is off the top of my head, pretty sure there are a couple more. I think Mpire was referring to Kentucky's need for a national champ though

I think leen was from soddy daisy high school.

[halfhalfhalf 121]

Leen wrestled at Baylor

[FalconWrestling 147]

Was Nick Marable Soddy Daisy then? I know Phillip Simpson was MBA

[halfhalfhalf 121]

Christian brothers. Jake Yost is the only notable soddy daisy guy I can think of

Matt Keller was Bradley central

[FalconWrestling 147]

I think one key point from this is that Kentucky's focus seems to be almost entirely on NAIA (most likely from our 3 NAIA programs). I would greatly prefer to see more athletes strive for NCAA teams. I think in D3 there is just Tyler Kaelin, Will Bryant, and I. Not sure if we have anyone competing in D2 right now.

[halfhalfhalf 121]

This 2013 class has how many going d1-

 

Wade Willen SIUE

Jerry Haywood ODU

SAM ??? 

 

 

Who else? 

 

D2-

 

D3-

 

 

NAIA- 

[halfhalfhalf 121]

Personally I believe if U of L were to add wrestling the state of KY wrestling would only become stronger. Especially in Louisville. If you need to see results look up Tennessee. McCallie, Baylor, Notre Dame, Bradley Central, Cleveland and Soddy Daisy have benefitted from UTC. 

[FalconWrestling 147]

Look on the Seniors board for more D1 guys. You forgot Kevin Cooper and Jayce Carr

[halfhalfhalf 121]

honest mistake about those two.
