Best lineup to finish the season?

I’ve always leaned toward the “win today and worry about tomorrow later” mindset. That said, I fully understand the idea of redshirting Henson and I’m on board with that decision. Beyond that, I’m hesitant to push any additional chips into future years. With that in mind, what do we think is the best lineup to finish this season? We’re still chasing an ACC regular-season title, an ACC tournament title, and multiple All-Americans at Nationals, right? My thoughts: 125 – Eddie 133 – DC / Seidel 141 – DC / Seidel (I think either could give us better results than Crook, though I am not sure) 149 – Gaj / Nininger 157 – Gaj / Nininger / Miller (less certain here) 165 – Burton (ride him for now; not convinced Church moves the needle results-wise) 174 – Hoping Gage Wright comes back; not much confidence in Desiante at this point 184 – Any chance at a transfer? Not much confidence in Bullock right now 197 – Sasso, who seems to be coming on strong HWT – Mullen, same as Sasso

I think this is just about right with some additional observations/thoughts

I cannot see how you keep Seidel out of the lineup somewhere

Seidel is a true 133 right now. So is Campbell. Both have the frame for 141
donjfs3 01/07/26 05:23 PM ET
Problem is 141 is available this year only**

I honestly think Seidel has a shot at a NCAA title this year.,,

If Seidel is beating DC at 133, you either let Seidel go there or you RS

Agree with everything but 149...

You can RS Gaj/NN next year when 141/149 are spoken for.
donjfs3 01/06/26 05:14 PM ET
Agreed w/ Mullen.
