Wrestlers who would be legends at bigger market teams

Historically Greg Jones would be an example. One of the best ever but seemed like an afterthought even when he was competing. Modern day would be Austin O'Conner, if he's wrestled for iowa, which would have been a good fit he'd have been talked about constantly.

And for fun, the anti example, a big market wrestler no ones thinks about and i have no idea why TJ Williams. 1 loss in three years at Iowa.

TJ was a hammer! Didn't he only lose 1 match his freshmen year at Lassen? He is a great guy and runs a great camp too.

Les Gutches. 134-10 college record, 3xAA, 2x NCAA Champ for wOSU Beavers. He went undefeated his last two years of college and notably beat Cael Sanderson at Senior Nationals.

This is all true, but beating Cael was not what was notable at the time,  What people were talking about was how the College kid (Cael) gave the world champ (Gutches) a good match.
