Took the words right out of my mouth. Everybody knows that in order for wrestling to continue to flourish in this state you need a strong OSU program. There is no other program not even OU that can carry that load. It all trickles down from there.

Just popping in to congratulate you Cowboy fans on the new hire. It's going to be a great ride for you folks. Great fans and a great program! Welcome back to the center of the mat. And further pushing Hawkeye Nation into irrelevance. Hold onto those pistols, it's gonna be fun!

Besides Oklahoma State, another program that will benefit from this hire will be the Oklahoma Sooners. With Taylor & company, the program will have many more recruits from around the country. OSU will not be taking nearly as many wrestlers from Oklahoma now & the Sooners can pick them up.
OMG Dee!!! What a reply!
I don't love the trash talk on social media. Leave that to the Ferraris. I get being amped up but hope our squad keeps it classy. Dang I'm old lol
Watch this guy boys. He's a sneaky one...
I'm extremely happy for OSU. The Jeff Jordan-trained, St. Paris Graham Graduate is exactly what the Cowboys needed. But I'm also very concerned for the man that knows all. Has anyone heard from Blair since the official announcement??
He commented something kinda vague earlier but that’s it
There is still a chance that Coach Taylor is our rep at the Olympics, with the rumors of Brooks PED pop at U23 last year. Wonder what that does if anything to preparations/rtc. Having an Olympian would be big for CWC also.
Maybe windows definitely no tunnel tho
Well the Cowboys got the coach Iowa fans wanted. We're trying to take the attendance record from them. I'm hoping this new facility beats the one the Hawkeyes just built.
When I said I revel in "taking" everything from Hawkeye fans, I wasn't sh!tn ya...
I’ll hold my breath on the facility until someone official shares it.
Attendance record will be purely based on what football game they select to have this dual before. If it’s a good football game you’ll break the record. Wrestling isn’t selling that many tickets by itself.
I hope the ex wrestlers will hop on board. I work with one and he is pissed due to the CS situation.

What Others are Saying About David Taylor Being Named Head Coach at Oklahoma State
It is news that has turned the wrestling world upside down as one of the cornerstones of the Penn State dynasty is heading to Stillwater.
Well the alumni I’ve spoken with are thrilled and wanted this to happy last year. Of course they hate it personally for CS and staff but they’ve thought a house cleaning needed to happen.
No decision was going to make everyone happy but I think you can see by the national reaction this is considered a HR hire.

Daton currently running practices. Word is he could possibly find a place on the team staff or RTC. 👊🏻
Hope that’s the case. And it would be a massive win for him if he gets to go against Gilman every day.
Good podcast on DT and what is being said
I feel Cael and co. can judge a kids trajectory better than anyone else. David can coach them up sure but it is yet to be seen If he can pick the guy with the highest potential ceiling.
Levi Haines ain’t so bad lol
Kids aren’t just on rails. Coaches develop and help push kids to the next level. I truly think PSU has just been that good at it. They start with a good product but they level up.
He is also connected to the Surber family and tuttle wrestling.Interesting, the CEO is Chad Richison, but he's a UCO alum and has donated millions to their sports programs. I did see this article from last year where he's complaining about the UCO President hire. Maybe he decided to start giving to OSU instead? I don't know, seems weird if he's now donating a lot to OSU.
Paycom founder, UCO donor Chad Richison pushes back on pick for university president
After former Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb was named the next president of the University of Central Oklahoma, one of the school's biggest donors didn't agree with the decision.www.koco.com

Tuttle High School in Tuttle, Oklahoma, has named its new activity center in honor of Greg Henning, who was the head wrestling coach for 21 years. Currently under construction, the Greg Henning...

I really, really like this.
You are bringing on a guy that loves OSU and the state of Oklahoma.
Plus, you have another coach that can still wrestle with the guys in the room.
Carl has a fantastic eye for talent. He was on the Mirasola's after their freshman year - and they weren't that good yet, but he saw what they would be.

I picked this out of the replies to the above Duckworth post on X and it looks like this reflects the current situation, at least to a certain extent. It does appear that to much of the "wrestling world" is LTMs and there is considerable enthusiasm on this board. I certainly hope that everything "they" are saying will come to fruition and I have to admit that, with much sadness for Scott any Cowboy who loses a job from this, I'm getting very excited.

Far more excited posts than not. Also it's literally day 2 of anybody knowing anything. It's a small percentage of wrestling fans that consume wrestling media every day.
podcast gives a lot of insight into DT is
