TDR Notes; Several interesting questions to consider. Check them over and look at the video links.

The Southeast Open should offer some insight into the NCAA season as 11 D1 teams — including #7 Missouri, #20 North Carolina, and hosts #18 Virginia Tech — square off on opening weekend. Here are some questions we hope to have answered this weekend as over 25 ranked wrestlers head to Hokie territory.
The field at the Southeast Open seems to get a little deeper each year. The list of ranked teams and wrestlers who may compete this weekend sets the stage for some fascinating early season drama. 
Here are five questions to consider:
1) Does David McFadden Look Ready to Win It All?
Virginia Tech senior David McFadden returns to 165 after finishing fifth in the NCAA last season at 174. McFadden’s starts the season ranked fourth in the country, but he has wins over #2 Alex Marinelli and #3 Evan Wick. In fact, the only wrestler in the field with a win over McFadden is two time NCAA Champion Vincenzo Joseph whose loss in last season’s NCAA final was against McFadden’s teammate Mekhi Lewis. McFadden could face a couple of ranked foes in UNC’s 18^th-ranked Joshua McClure and Campbell’s 24^th-ranked Quentin Perez.
