    Coaching Staff Next Year

    I don’t know that is right to say people are down on Warner. Nobody really knows what kind of coach he will be. I believe people are down because we continue to hire in house, Iowa mold, types of guys and it feels like we need to shake up the approach more. The Warner hire feels like more of...

    POLL: Should this season be Tom Brands last as HC at Iowa?

    Development is still very important. Kids that don’t see kids in your program getting better don’t want to go to that program. So in addition to the recruiting woes, we have also struggled with development and unfortunately they feed each other.

    Do you believe firing Brands would result in a better coach and better results?

    My opinion is that the program has been headed in the wrong direction for years now. It feels like we haven’t learned from mistakes (poor recruiting, transfer portal issues, and wrestler development). I don’t know that there is a name out there that is a definitive upgrade (Taylor would have...

    Next Year’s Lineup

    Not sure what else they could have done, but the end result was not good. Leaders being able to work with administration to handle problems is a major part of the coach’s job. Issues that should have been identified were not, yet again. Then we’re stuck kicking the can down the road another...

    It’s actually Hand, and he’s got Hawk blood. He’s had some big wins this year and managed a takedown against Bassett today.

    Open Practice 10/25/25

    Fine I’ll break the Ice with an update. I saw there was open practice so I asked my 10 year old if he wanted to head down. He was very excited to go as we usually make it down once or twice a year. Since my wife was going to palates and lunch after I needed to also ask my 8 year old if he was...

    Recruiting….

    Bo is very good and will be on the podium every year he is not injured. His pace will make him a menace and he will score big bonus points. Low end Desanto and high end Lee IMO. Iowa was the best place for him both financially and for wrestling, but that ship has sailed.
