Shout out to @jtothemfp who asked the question.

If you had a Borglumian view of wrestling what would that look like? (paraphrasing)

Dan Gable is a self promoting fraud. David Taylor is a more decorated wrestler. Vincenzo Joseph has as many NCAA titles as Gable and Joseph's brackets were much more difficult.

Gable as a coach never won an NCAA team title that he didn't cheat.

You have to admit that the haters entered the fray in a strong manner.

The manner was strong, the argument was not.

The manner was strong, the argument was not.

I'm just an amateur Iowa hater. Wait until the paid ones get here.



And every fact was 100% true and verifiable.

Mitchell Mesenbrink has already exceeded Gable as a folkstyle wrestler also.

This is great work! Imagine my excitement to see Gray Simons, who I have always thought was massively underrated. Thanks for putting this together.

 

[jtothemfp]

Wow, thanks for this! Lots to unpack, will check it out in segments.

Thanks again!

Shocking that Slumlord Millionaire isn't on the Contributors Peak after he singlehandedly leveled the playing field.

One minor but vital correction is necessary in the article: @jtothemfp may show up here from time to time, but his fame is inexorably linked to BSD-Wrestle. With apologies to Tom and Greg, of course.

Things less fraudulent than Dan Gable as a coach.....

Dean Heil has as many NCAA titles as Dan Gable. The difference is that Heil was the impetus for a rule change...therefore Heil was more influential as a wrestler.

Gable's chicken wing was probably the reason for the rule change about putting the elbow in the ear.

So in your world view Carter Starocci should displace Cael Sanderson.
