Wish she could do both. Big loss.

In the big picture it helps having USA wrestling headed up by two Hawkeyes.

I always figured sooner or later she would move on to a head coach position at some new program at a big school...this is better.

Is Sarah Hildebrandt stepping down? Wasn't she in that role?

I know that she "retired" from competition, took the position with USAW...is she no longer there?

She wrestled at the US Open and lost in the finals. I'd say she's not fully retired now.

Great for her, but also wish she were still coaching, too. Having a young-ish coach like her does wonders for the team, I'd imagine.

Very difficult, even these days, to do both.

I agree and she's not getting any younger. Now she's done for the year with an injury. She has a tough road ahead.

Except for us, right?

Obviously you care enough to post about how much you don't care.

I am also willing to bet on bad odds you do not walk off the mat, walking straight, against Welker or Blades if you make that comment to them face to face.

That might just be the worst use of this analogy I've ever seen.

I got a better idea: shut the f*ck up.
