CowboyYe2024 Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Know the OK State AD, they took their time with the new MBB coach so they clearly are looking for a dude certain fundamentals. Still its going to be Scott, but they are going to take their time with this.

Define "left on his own." I'd guess this was more of a plan of looking for a good opportunity given Espo wasn't going to be the guy. .
CowboyYe2024 Posted May 3 Posted May 3 The Flo guys said Cale might leave for OKST as a joke. That would be dope.

TylerDurden Posted May 3 Posted May 3 This must not be a priority for Oklahoma State. John Smith is still listed as head coach on its website https://okstate.com/sports/wrestling/roster

nhs67 Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Minnow saying that DT is on a flight to OKC. 1 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

Mr. PeanutButter Posted May 3 Posted May 3 bro I thought DT was a lock to Iowa. If he is going to split time between M2 and OKST why not throw Iowa in there as well?

lu_alum Posted May 3 Posted May 3 How good does Coleman Scott look when they can say DT was rejected? The Unicorn has collegiate coaching experience. This is a no-brainer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Idaho Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Bummer for Coleman Scott when all signs pointed to you becoming the head coach....and oh yeah, we are bringing in David Taylor to interview. Sponsored by INTERMAT

Depending on WWII definition OkSt won in '42 while the US was involved and won '40/'41 when we weren't.

Yup, kinda even if he does get the job…. So I think answer to the question of it being a bad sign for Coleman that he hadn’t been named yet was proven to be yes…

CowboyYe2024 Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Why do I kinda want Taylor as our new coach? I feel like this could work. Never saw us hiring a non-OSU wrestler as coach.

They have an interim coach. OSU hasn't bothered for nearly a month. It's in multiple locations, including the drop-down menu for the sport page under "Team Info" and on the athletic department staff directory. He's no longer the head coach. We aren't talking about a shoestring operation at OSU - they just haven't done it. Does it mean anything for the coaching search? Probably not - I was being somewhat hyperbolic in the first post. But they certainly haven't cared enough to update things which means something. If you were talking about the actual roster, I'd agree, but not with the head coach. Edited May 4 by TylerDurden
