Brian Smith does an amazing job. Absolutely locks down in-state talent
Brock Mauller (great name) placed 6th as a true freshman and Zach Elam was one match short of AA as an undersized Heavyweight true freshman . Lost like 15 points from the Miklus transfer (sad deal with his dad) and returning AA Grant Leeth was out for the season.
Lots of young talent, but they won't win nationals anytime soon. The wrestling hotbeds in PA, OH, and NJ have gotten too good for the Midwest to keep up with. Mizzou can't consistently recruit those areas.. though they've had a couple Ohio guys over the years.
Eierman is taking an Olympic redshirt, but Mizzou is set up for a nice run when he returns in 2021.
