I basically agree with your other points, but I think the PSU will consider DT one of there’s for a while. They want to win just like everyone else, but they will not dislike us as long as DT is here.
I agree. I think top 5 to 2 would be pretty consistent. Iowa, Cornell, Michigan, Ohio state; as well as Missouri, Iowa state would be challengers. We were ranked #2 going into nationals though and with some more experience, we could have come close to that. With all the changes, our upside is greater and we would still be sitting 2 to 3 for the next few years but maybe we can start tocontend in 5ish years. But t, you recruit the right guys and have good buy-in with good performances, maybe we could steel one in said years. I don’t want to create overinflated expectations, but we can hope.
I believe he’s interviewing. Not sure for what position though.
Weird it works that way even though you were already on staff.
I love it. I feel as though I just married into a rich family. PSU fans are much better than Iowa fans.
I wasn't that keen on Gilman going to the NLWC, but everyone in the program says he enjoys teaching technique and has been impressive in the room as a mentor. He is a master at hand fighting which will improve everyone's scoring capability in your room. That said, I think after the Olympics he moves to the RTC and Dake slides into an asst coach position. I could be wrong on that but it makes more sense.
Gilman is a man you want on the college staff.
I agree. He’s all in. The good thing about men is that we can fight and turn around and be best friends. I’ve done a few times.
Judging from their message board Iowa doesn’t have fans, just people that hate them less
It’s called the cesspool for a reason.
this place can’t turn into cesspool 2.0. I will be too sad 😆
I’ve been around him.
There should be; although DT and Gilman alone should be enough buzz for Wyatt.
I’m very excited to see Spratley next season. He seems very excited to work with Gilman.
Same here. I'd bet there is a good chance that he makes a noticeable leap. Heck, he was a couple bad breaks away from having a completely different end to his season at Big 12 and NCAA.
I hate to say this, but it goes back to Gable. His philosophy is VERY old school and it does not translate to these newer generations. John was a bit that way, though not as much. Great wrestlers/coaches but times do change.
When we are in a slump, you get the Monday morning quarter backs out. For the most part, we don’t like personal attacks here.
I don’t think either would be the 3rd asst either way.
Is there a limit on the number of coaches at a RTC? It seems like they are here for now and will see what the future holds.
So seems like easy to Keep Zo and Caldwell for now. See what happens this summer with olympics and how they do with the athletes from coaches perspective. If they do well, they will have the opportunity to stay. 🤷♂️
