TitleIX is ripe for reform Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 With the writer's strike underway, perhaps it's time some wrestlers stepped up and invited the studios to revisit Vision Quest, this time with a female in the lead (wrestling) role?

Who needs tram/trolley when you have cabs and ride share? Who is talking about Tulsa? Two major problems with Vegas: 1) Would any wrestlers still be allowed to wrestle after day 1 (prob none from state of Iowa +) and 2) even if they were, would any of us folks not in attendance be allowed to know what happened? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .

Dakota Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I am a firm believer that we should never reward areas that do not support college wrestling, so no Texas, Florida, etc. But Vegas would be a lot fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreePointTakedown Posted July 21, 2023 Author Share Posted July 21, 2023 That's a tricky balancing act. How to reward loyalty and encourage expansion? I don't envy that math, but we can't be THAT petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge states like Florida and Texas that doesn't have a single Division 1 team should not be rewarded a tournament.
