You are right, sometimes the best wrestlers don’t make the best coaches, but I think Spencer brings certain things to the table, (1) he is a Hawkeye, and that alone may be enough to satisfy the Iowa faithful as well as those who make the decisions behind closed doors. (2) Spencer now possesses an Olympic Silver medal which is an accolade that certifies his ability to be among the elite in the world. But all this is just conjecture, his talents may lie elsewhere and who knows what Spencer will want when he hangs it up.
