Just to clear some things up. The last thread was deleted due to the direction it was headed and has some misinformation running a course that didn't need run. Regardless of feelings, there is a family that sees/feels some injuries from the rumor mill. They are still Cowboys and I don't think they want that to change.
There are obviously some issues that need to be remedied, but it evidently isn't that bad. There are a few very strained relationships, but they aren't believed to be terrible with DT and CS. They actually communicate some and unless you were sitting with them, the true words can't be known.
Anyway, I spoke with Jessica. They LOVE of OSU and they LOVE Wrestling! Maybe one day, CS will be in the fold with the Program again. Currently, that isn't the case. BUT, she assured me that they are not working AGAINST us. They want to be in Stillwater and they want Wrestling to flourish! The Farm is meant to help, promote and improve Wrestling.
The only thing I, myself, see as a potential problem is leverage on recruits. But, it is going to be super hard to recruit kids away from Stillwater while they are in Stillwater. I also hold her at her word that everything really is fine outside of some relationships that muddy the waters information wise. It's clearly not kumbahya, but it's not strained as the rumor mill outlines it.
