► Add to the Discussion Page 1, 2, 3, 4  Next Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Ben Golden added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 ...as Tyrell Fortune commits to tOSU. Kevin Schlosser: http://www.buckeyewrestling.com/?q=node/37256 It's a great situation for both parties. Ohio State addresses a need with an immediate-impact guy. Tyrell gets a great training situation with Rowlands, Bergman, and Dlagnev as potentials partners. Not to mention he's a freestyler.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Nicholas Sestito added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Well it certainly looks like the training center is beginning to pay off dividends with attracting recruits to Ohio State. I'm very curious to see how things will shake out at heavyweight for the Buckeyes.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Ethan Moore added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Wow, this is a big get for Coach Ryan. Just curious - were the Buckeyes not relying on Hiles to take the job at heavy? He seemed like the man in waiting.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Nicholas Sestito added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 I can only guess they needed to create a comeptitive environment and depth at that weight class.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Bob Preusse added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Hiles hasnt taken the job yet so they are bringing in a BIG gun--- ive watched Fortune in Fargo, he is a man among boyz, one of the best high school upperwts over the past 20 years, possibly in a class with the likes of Rowlands, Mocco, Kole Conrad. Possibly. i hope he complete his academic work and shows up here in December, would be an enormous boost. Enormous. (one clarification from the article, Oregon is a traditonal wrestling state-- Oregon St has a strong history, and though not densely populated Oregon high school wrestling is very good.) s/BobP        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Rex Holman added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 It appears that Nick Heflin could emerge a superstar if he is able to manage the complexities of college wrestling. His results, DI physique, and rumblings about him being the real deal lead me to believe that he is on the path to being exceptional.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes John Ice added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Looks like a nice catch for the Bucks, hope you are right Rex!        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Jim Kessen added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 This looks like a great pick up. Is he a title contender? The only returning AA are Trice 8th and Rey 3rd. I know we are long long way off but he could be contender.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Jack Muni added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Check this kid out on the junior college National Championships videos. He's not afraid to go upper and throw guys. As dangerous as Berman was. What great news for the Bucs.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Pat Costilow added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Wow- thats an awesome get right there, and much needed.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Josh Lowe added to this discussion on April 16, 2010 Fortune is a projected 285 with three years left on his clock (three to compete three). He competed his first year out of high school, "sitting" this past one. Fortune will be a smaller 285, more in the 230-240 range. Doesn't seem like John Hiles has set the world on fire, and one would think that Fortune is being brought in with hopes of being an upgrade at the weight class. The article indicates that Fortune will not be around until winter quarter though.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Bob Preusse added to this discussion on April 17, 2010 Fortune must complete his academic work at Clackamas community college or he cant be admitted to Ohio St. So in a way, its like Derek Garcia, in that Ohio st doesnt really have either yet--- it is expected Ohio st will have them both, but it hasnt happened yet. In one case Garcia must re-sign, and in the other Fortune must graduate. let's not mince words, the buckeyes are looking for a heavyweight. And Fortune is expected to be more than a mere "upgrade" if he joins the buckeyes.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Gary Sommers added to this discussion on April 17, 2010 Quote from Bob Preusse's post: "Fortune must complete his academic work at Clackamas community college or he cant be admitted to Ohio St. So in a way, its like Derek Garcia, in that Ohio st doesnt really have either yet--- it is expected Ohio st will have them both, but it hasnt happened yet. In one case Garcia must re-sign, and in the other Fortune must graduate. let's not mince words, the buckeyes are looking for a heavyweight. And Fortune is expected to be more than a mere "upgrade" if he joins the buckeyes." There is actually a chance this kid won't graduate from a JUCO? If so, how will he ever maintain eligibility at Ohio State?        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Bob Preusse added to this discussion on April 17, 2010 i didnt say he wouldnt graduate, i said he has to graduate before he enrolls at Ohio St. something is wrong with you Sommers, you are constantly trying to stir up trouble.        Discussion Topic: Fortune Smiles on the Buckeyes Ethan Moore added to this discussion on April 17, 2010 Give me a break, Gary is asking a legitimite question. Don't get so sensitive, and don't hate because some people aren't devout OSU fans. Back on topic, seems like a great pick up for OSU!        ► Add to the Discussion Page 1, 2, 3, 4  Next
