How could we forget TJ Hill who stood like 4'10 wrestling for Cal Fullerton. Made it to the NCAA semis one year and later on quit wrestling to try to become a jockey. 

Arguably the best Mo high school wrestler ever. He was a beast.

I'd like to hear your argument why he was better than Cox in high school.

To my Minny friends, I’ll throw it back to Donny Wichman, longtime Augsburg coach. He was about 6’ as a 105/112 HS. Skinniest wrestler I ever saw. May he RIP.

Let me start by saying Cox himself was a Mo great, winning 4 titles in different weights and being the first to do so is a huge accomplishment. Winning those in the upper weights where Freshman don’t typically do well is another amazing feat. For TJ, all three high school losses where as a freshman, 4x champ while wrestling up in weight as a Sr and tech falling his opponent in the state finals was something my eyes had never seen before. Not only was he technical but he simple wanted to embarrass everyone he wrestled. He gets my vote as Mo great, not only because of his 4 titles but what he did at Fargo. I’d have to look it up, but he was a countless time champ and runner up at all levels. I believe he won Sr nationals also.

Sam Latona?  Isn't he taller than Norris at 5'9"?

Mitch Clark / Barry Weldon NCAA final, pretty significant difference in height here
