    They draw whoever they want because everyone save a couple of Iowa fans knows they are the best coaches. Chicken or egg ? Kids who dream of NCAA and World and Olympic titles want to wrestle for guys they believe can get them there. The best coaches always recruit better.

    I think you are a good guy grip but maybe a tad slow. I bet you can prove Babe Ruth wasn't good at baseball because he struck out. Spencer Lee wasn't good at wrestling because he lost. Cael isn't good at coaching because one of his wrestlers lost. All coaches have wrestlers lose, it is...

    PSU went from one title in program history to dominating college wrestling. That is what matters. It isn't about a handful of wrestlers getting better or worse but the direction of the program. You can't be happy with the team results the past 15 years. Do you think Iowa will win another...

    Who said it was just coaching? Do you think every title every wrestler won under Dan Gable would have been won under any other coach? Why pay Brands what Iowa pays him when they could just get a student to do it for work study? Coaching matters. I know you don't want Brands gone and I...

    Idiots who think results matter or 1st or 2nd is better than 4th. The nerve.

    I think a concussion protocol might be in order along with a brick and some blood time.

    All good points. Would Cael have been pushing the new training facility above improving the RTC? Would the teams remain in this pecking order through the next two recruiting cycles and several transfer portals opening and closing. We don't have answers to these questions and can only...

    POTUS executive order -- 5 total years + 1 transfer limit starting Aug 1?

    The courts will shoot it down but it will at least give everything a chance to reset. What happens if Congress (I know) decided to give the NCAA a monopoly and force revenue sharing? Would that matter? Where are our legal experts? Is it simply that no power exists to stop the momentum and...

    Please let him return to Iowa City. We can finally watch the last episode of the Tom Brands era.

    Vega and Mendez is the best example. Trade coaching staffs for an entire year and Mendez beats Vega fairly easy. Trade coaching staffs with MM and MC for the past 3 years and instead of a tech fall in the finals you would have a coin flip match. Recruiting will always matter and always has...

    Bringing in talent is 100% part of coaching. Brands was once a damn fine coach but time has passed him by. The sport has changed. Programs have adapted. DT has arrived on the scene. Identifying talent and improving it is very important. Iowa guys have not been improving as the career moves...

    Honesty doesn't matter here. Everybody with a heart beat knows you are correct.

    The team scores this year and next and next and next will answer all you want to know. DT can coach. DT can identify talent. DT can recruit. DT knows how to peak guys correctly. He learned from the best. It is a two horse race for a reason. Coaching matters.
