My thoughts by tier...
Strong Favorite
Eddie Ventresca - firmly established himself amongst the top tier with wins over V Rob. Closed the gap on Spratley at the NCAAs. Has LL made the jump and will he become the clear title favorite
50/50
Mullen - Despite the loss to Hopke, I believe he is next likely to AA based on talent plus weight class competition. I expect Jimmy to make the jump this season and AA
Bloodround Guys
I think right now the following will need favorable draws to make a run at AA, but they have the talent to make it Friday night with AA on the line.
3. Miller
4. Crook
5. Sasso
Unknown
6. Campbell - If DC isn't wrestling at 133 I would have moved him up to blood round tier, but 133 will be very difficult to AA
7. Burton - Need to see him develop more. 165 does not have the depth like other weights.
Longshot
Would love to see us get 10 bids and each win 1-2 matches.
8. Desiante
9. 149 starter
10. Bullock

Right now I'd give Crook a better chance than Burton or Campbell.

Right now I'd say it's a lot more likely than a freshman making a run.
