big loss for Coach Ersland not to land him , esp. since he's interested in Engineering.

Coach Ersland is doing a very good job. But when it comes to wrestling recruiting big guys go to schools who have track records of producing big guy champs. Purdue wasn’t even in the final 6 schools for MP. But it’s not like they weren’t recruiting him hard. Just never going to be able to sell a top five big guy in the country to come to Purdue until we either. Have someone really out preform their ranking or hire a coach known for that.

he is doing a really good job, but Michigan doesn't produce many Nat'l Champs neither, they're not psu, osu, Minn., or Iowa. Didn't know we didn't make his final 6, that's a shame for being an instate kid who wants to major in something that Purdue is known for. Who was his final 6 anyway? thanks.

Michigan produces big guys right now. Purdue just doesn’t have the coaching for him. He could have went to any school he wanted. Pretty sure his top 6 was Neb, Mich, IU, NW, NCst, and VT I think. At UM he has one of the best heavyweights in the country to wrestle and train with for the next five years.

Adam Coon

he is a grad student, Ready is a Frosh

 

[takedownboiler]

Adam Coon redshirted the 16-17’ season. He should be back competing this year. He took NCAA runner up as a sophomore and 3rd as a junior. Before his injury last year. He was the main reason Paris selected UM. Being able to train and be coached by him. I see Paris as staying smaller even tho Wrestling HWT like Kyle Snyder from OSU.

Speaking of wrestling football players, I don't see Shawn Streck (Merrillville heavyweight state champ) listed on the football roster. Did he ever play football for PU? I thought he was going to do both. Is he still wrestling at PU?

Was an absolute beast in both sports for 4 years at Merrillville.

Do remember him being listed on a spring roster as a true fresh but since then haven't seen him there
