Hammerlock3 Posted May 11 Posted May 11 Why didn't Brooks ask the lord to help him with his homework? 4 "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."
Eagle26 Posted May 11 Posted May 11 I listen to his one interview on flo… it was a good interview. My favorite part was when they asked him about how much he will use the transfer portal. He replied with the Cael quote, “what do you have a plan or something?” 1

He replied with the Cael quote, “what do you have a plan or something?” he's not as good with the understated humor as cael, at the presser he told a story about wrestling his wife at tulsa and pinning her, but he didn't sell the punchline in any way so it didn't really work. 1 "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

Few people are. Cael’s probably one of the funniest “non-funny” guys out there

alliseeisgold Posted May 11 Author Posted May 11 I thought Taylor showed depth I didn't think he had The moment of him really leaning into smith and thanking him was a great moment. As well as mentioning Jeff Jordan.
alliseeisgold Posted May 11 Author Posted May 11 3 hours ago, Crotalus said: I was impressed. Never really been a big fan, but his speech and answers sounded unscripted and honest. He didn't say much about conversations with Cael. I'm sure Cael is happy for him, but it doesn't seem like he was encouraging Taylor to take the job. When you look at college and pro football, the top coaches seem really supportive of their assistants getting head coaching opportunities. You'd think Cael would want to create a successful coaching tree, and there is not a better landing spot for Taylor. But maybe he's not interested in true competition and wants to continue hoarding the best coaches and wrestlers (I could be interpreting this all wrong). Even as a Mizzou fan, this is exciting for college wrestling. He gave cael the same amount of time as Jeff Jordan. LOL. Taylor is here to kick caels ass now. No time for sucking up . Taylor has an edge and I like it
wrestlingshoe Posted May 11 Posted May 11 Smith, "This program is a good hands. I want him to be a better Coach than I was..." Classic. What a way to pass the torch. That statement should go down in history. 2 1

He looks very green in the public speaking territory but it's fair enough given it wasn't previously a priority for him. Lots of ums. He had a few tics as well like the finger tapping.

Christopher Hitchens: now there is a guy who can speak eloquently and also write well. Sad to see him taken by cancer.

lisa morales Posted May 11 Posted May 11 Taylor looked and acted like a hayseed. Would it kill him to wear a suit? 1

I am surprised to see Brooks do it though The speed was startling, given what he meant to the that program. I think maybe they assumed he would be Cael's heir and this is their way of working thru it. 1

Cael has never been a blabbermouth, which is one of the reasons I like him. I'm sure Taylor probably talked to Cael immediately after getting offered. Yes, this is exciting. David has done well with youth clubs and has been a top assistant, it will be interesting seeing how he develops as a head coach. These things aren't guaranteed though, in my life I've been disappointed many times in supposed sure things.

Not so much Cael's silence as much as Taylor not saying Cael was encouraging him to take the job if he had aspirations to be a college head coach. Taylor could, of course, just be keeping details to himself. Is it concerning at all that it seems like a number of the PSU wrestlers don't seem to like him? You'd think he'd be a mentor and someone they look up to, even if some of them would have compete against him.

Shirley you must be kidding. Can any out interview Tommie B post match, all are on the edge of their chairs waiting for the next crazy things out of his mouth. .
