Maybe it's just bad coaching at Iowa. Their staff is much stronger coaching the lighter weights.

eye roll.

there was nothing close to an 88lb discrepancy in this match.

and Hayden Zillmer made a world team two years ago after coming up from 97kg. 

but keep inventing things. 

What does a college folkstyle 184 have to do with this conversation? Time to hit the gym short stack

He won 88lbs in Fargo the same year that Dom Bradley won HWT then went on to beat Dom Bradley at HWT WTT.

Furthermore Zillmer had said on many occasions, when asked about Steveson's potential return, that making 97 KG wouldn't be an issue were that to come up and that he was in the 225-230 range.

Remember how Derek White gained 40 or 50 points to move from 184 to HWT?

I don't know him I'm not trying to attack his character. I would think when you are as gifted at he is to where he's been able to do a sport in season and be better than 99% of people that are probably dedicating their entire life to that singular sport, It may be hard mentally to adapt to now allocating more time than you ever have to a single sport and having less success (relative to the level he is at) than he had previously allocating far less time to it. I could be extremely off base it just seems like the ability he has despite maybe being a little undersized is not meeting expectations.

I knew a kid like that. Tiny guy, never got bigger than 115 in HS. 3 time all state, won state a time or two. Was well coached and had the benefit of wrestling camps and such. The whole time he was wrestling pipsqueaks, nearly all of them freshman and sophomores, and when he got to a college room he flailed. He had already been coached to the max in HS, and had just enough athleticism to make all state 3 times, but everybody he was wrestling in college was more athletic and had nearly as good technique.  Some guys just don't have the physical tools for college wrestling. 

Regarding Keuter, he doesn't look like anything special to me. If he wants to win at HWT in college he needs to pack on muscle, quickly. Another 25 pounds of muscle and 10 pounds of fat would go a long way for that boy.
