  1. This same thing was said about Iowa in the early '80's. That was of course before we had this cool forum with unlimited "likes"!
  2. I don't think many Okies would like to have a Spates mini me
  3. J Rob is an Okie State alumni that could sell tickets and recruit. Just typing this up for a friend of course
  4. If you have Title IX issues, just take a page out of the Iowa playbook and add a women's program
  5. Mark Cody was given the job at OU because he told them he could raise money, like he did at American. They really liked that idea. Well he did raise a little and then spent it on a lavish trip to Hawaii to wrestle American, Minnesota, and some other team. The following week, OU went to the east coast to wrestle.....American again. That was the nail in the coffin for Cody and good riddance. I was surprised that they paid out the money to land Lou in the first place, I hope they land another quality coach.
  6. It might help if he wants to become a member of the Mongolian coaching staff!
  7. Not another bet on the forum!!! Idaho might pay you in spuds! "Free taters for out of staters!"
  8. It is crazy to think Steve Sanderson (Cael's father) was not offered the job at BYU and then swore that his boys would not go to BYU. What would the landscape of college wrestling look like in the western states had Steve got the job instead of Schultz?
  9. In the past OU would never hire an Aggie. If John Smith were available, that might be a different story. I like Branch and have been surprised that UW didn't have more success under Branch.
  10. The price does seem high
  11. You better not forgive them. Nobody likes a quitter!
  12. Like @CHROMEBIRD I thought Lou was starting to get some traction as well.
  13. @Wrestleknownothing That's right! I just read that a few days ago. Thanks for the reminder. I have read several articles about schools in the rust belt and Midwest struggling to get new students & retain current students. So I am surprised when I see that a D3 school in the Midwest has added wrestling. I love more college wrestling, but I also fear that they will not be around in a few short years.
  14. Unfortunately it is that time of year. I heard that Limestone has dropped their women's program. Not sure if the men's program was spared or if they both got the axe. Could @Jason Bryant share some insight on this? Are there any other programs that have bit the dust?
  15. @Jason Bryant How good/bad was Oklahoma City? I know that has been several years ago, but it didn't seem too bad.
  16. Mizzou coach Brian Smith recently said something along the lines of.... he is not really concerned with kids at Fargo. He wants to see if a kid can get up off bottom.
  17. Mustard based for me!
  18. Great response @Idaho! When Cael left for PSU I wanted Terry to get the ISU job. I thought he would stir it up and develop a rivalry with PSU. But Kevin getting the job ISU was far better!
  19. How soon before Kevin calls another Hawk to join them?
  20. Its because we have an unlimited amount of likes!
  21. I bought $5 tickets when it was in OKC and I might have paid $10 for a Finals ticket.
  22. With that kind of performance at the NCAA's, sounds like there needs to be some more emotion in the room. I have thought for years that Joel needed to go and he can take his Kent State guy with him. Get some new blood in there and make that conference something worth watching. They remind me of Minkel during his last 5 years at Michigan State. Kent read, Kent write, Kent State!
  23. Yeah its not like they are having a hard time selling tickets to CHA. Not sure if the benefits outweigh to costs.
  24. The B1G schools are playing it smart by waiting to see the lower divisions clean up the circus before they enter the ring. The lower level schools have a hard enough time finding FS Officials, add more programs to the mix and that problem becomes even worse. When I say having problems, that is not even with 3 man mechanics.
