Do you think Nebraska can win the NCAA tournament? I am thinking the Big Ten tournament winner is the NCAA winner, but I am not that well-versed on theindividual wrestlers.

Iowa has now qualified all 10-wrestlers. Only two teams in the NCAA, Nebraska and Iowa, qualified all 10.

Probably the one good thing about the wrestling tournament being cancelled Brands won't get another Title. Just something about him that bothers me.  That said Iowa would have run away with the title this year unless there was a tremendous amount of upsets.

The Brands twins grew up about an hour north of me

no real dirt on them, but they are hard for me to like as well

LINCOLN -- Wrestling Insider Newsmagazine (WIN) released its 2019-20 recruiting rankings on Wednesday morning and Nebraska's incoming class was ranked No. 2 nationally, trailing only that of Oklahoma State.
"The recruiting class assembled by coach Mark Manning helped Nebraska close the gap with [Oklahoma State] by completing banner senior seasons" the WIN news release reads. "Nebraska made it a photo finish at the end. Whether you lean toward No. 1 or No. 2, the Huskers head into the off-season with huge momentum after finishing second in the Big Ten Championships, the last collegiate competition of the past season."

Nebraska's class is comprised of four-time state champions Jeremiah Reno (125) of Missouri and Dominick Serrano (141) of Colorado (both of whom earned WIN's Wrestler of the Year honors in their respective states); two-time state champion Silas Allred (197) of Indiana (also a WIN Wrestler of the Year honoree in his home state); and Nathan Haas (184), whose senior season culminated in him winning his second California state title. Reno, Serrano and Allred all completed undefeated senior seasons before becoming Huskers.

The WIN recruiting rankings are "based primarily on two factors: the number of recruits outstanding enough to lead a serious bid for NCAA or All-American honors, and the class's overall performance during their senior high school seasons. Going back to the horse race between Oklahoma State and Nebraska, for example, both schools score well using both metrics, but Oklahoma State's strength is more heavily weighted toward the first, Nebraska's more heavily toward the second."

The Huskers swept the top three spots in PrepVolleyball.com's individual rankings list. Overall, Nebraska has five recruits in the top-16 of the rankings, and six in the top 70.

Kennedi Orr, a setter from Eagan, Minnesota, is currently ranked No. 1. Lindsay Krause, a 6-foot-3 outside hitter from Omaha Skutt, is ranked No. 2. Ally Batenhorst, a 6-4 outside hitter from Katy, Texas, is ranked No. 3.

Nebraska’s other committed players in the rankings are Lexi Rodriguez, a libero from Sterling, Illinois, at No. 10; outside hitter Whitney Lauenstein from Waverly at No. 16; and Rylee Gray, a 6-4 middle blocker from Elkhorn South, at No. 70.

While most of the Huskers’ 2021 class have been committed to Nebraska for several years, Lauenstein improved a lot during high school and got her scholarship offer from Nebraska during her junior season.
