I have a cautious take on the latest trend.

IMHO Bo and a few other high recruits are wrestling too much. I am actually amazed at just how many high level events they participate in. Wrestling is hard on the body and there is only so much it can take before someone physically or mentally breaks down. The risk of injury is a factor too. I just wonder if some of these guys are peaking too early. I realize some are just built different....but yikes.

Melvin Miller joining early rumor?

I personally say let him finish high-school
Rokie08 • 12/26/25 07:35 PM ET
They can get paid sooner. So I expect we’ll see a lot more of this
GreenvilleVT • 12/28/25 07:09 PM ET
Agreed this is my position**
donjfs3 • 12/27/25 02:09 AM ET
He has to finish i.e. graduate high school regardless, no?**
Baltimore Hokie • 12/27/25 01:46 AM ET
Some schools and states have pretty loose graduation requirements**

He can greyshirt**
texashokie1 • 12/26/25 07:48 PM ET
If that's the case I think that would be good
Rokie08 • 12/26/25 09:58 PM ET
Makes a lot more sense than Bo this year

Several of them are older too. Lots of held back in elementary school
GreenvilleVT • 12/28/25 07:06 PM ET
I'm in agreement the only counterpoint is
donjfs3 • 12/27/25 01:12 PM ET
Some seem more susceptible to the grind than others. Bo is super human so
goodbadugly • 12/27/25 05:04 PM ET
Or just burn out…**
ChEHokie78 • 12/27/25 12:55 PM ET
He is just a Junior but would be amazing
HokieInClifton • 12/26/25 05:53 PM ET
Yes this would be second semester of next year **
donjfs3 • 12/26/25 06:43 PM ET
I've seen discussions. Makes sense. He beat Flo's current 157 #1 at
VTDante • 12/26/25 01:40 PM ET
I really don’t think Duke will se 157 again after this year**
CTDad • 12/26/25 06:21 PM ET
I've seen no confirmation on Jax if he's wrestling or "greyshirting"
donjfs3 • 12/26/25 03:10 PM ET
As an 18 yr old junior he was probably held back at some point. Early
