Wondering if UNC made a condition that whoever they hired, Ramos was staying. Seems from the outside UNC covered their bases and it appears had honest conversations with Ramos. Hard to pass up on Koll and his resume.

You pretty much covered every scenario .... he might stay he might not. He might leave next year....maybe in a couple years... He might like working with Koll and he might be slighted...

On the third hand.... will they keep following to UNC?

Yep Ramos staying..... creates an interesting situation. On one hand it does provide a great opportunity for him to continue to hone his skills as a future head coach. On the other hand, he has kind of stuck with not a lot of other options being August right before school starts when this happens. I think it will work out.

I'm not real close to the UVU program, but I am familiar because our valley has sent several kids there to wrestle such as Demetrius Romero. The facilities, in my opinion are not real great. I admit, I haven't been to their facility in a while so I don't know if they have updated some things or have plans to. Knowing many people connected to the program, one thing that is said about Greg is his ability to connect with kids and parents. They know he is going to take care of them beyond wrestling practice. Several parents and coaches have said they love Greg and they feel good leaving their kids in his hands. From the wrestling aspect of the program, the same people have said Jason Chamberlain was an amazing coach. He is no longer at UVU - He was only there a year. I believe he is now working as an Engineer if I heard right. As someone noted, if they go outside the program Adam Hall would be an excellent choice. If they stay in house it's obvious it will be between Lofthouse and Erkin. I am not sure about fully funded either, but I do know (as others have said) that they have full support from the university. The president goes to the matches and she is an avid fan. It doesn't seem like she would let funding get in the way of anything. They usually have a pretty decent schedule as well. This is just my opinion... but having followed the team for a long time, they have had some good rosters but seem to have a lot of injuries. If everyone is healthy this year I think they could have a couple guys make some noise. Drury is probably one of the most overlooked guy that could come in this year and surprise some people. There may be some people on here that have more knowledge than I do about UVU - we used to have wolverine on the last board who was a big fan.

I believe if there is a coaching change, you have 30 days to enter the portal.... but yes, I agree.... it's like when football coaches change before the bowl season then coach their new team they don't know...or walk away from their old team that hasn't finished the season. I hate that stuff. There needs to be regulations for coaching changes - it's definitely not what's best for the program and woudl not hurt coaches to have a window themselves to change schools.

Minnow saying Koll announced today.... makes sense.... lots of dominoes falling in the coaching world lately...and to come.

GLH is the stuff for our follicle challenged friends

well documented injury issues at UVU...not as many older wrestlers now as they had (i.e. Kjar) previously.

I don't see anyone touching Penn State for a long time. But, I definitely think they should be able to make a run at a top 3 if things fall into place and young kids develop quickly.

I agree... it is interesting. I have no clue about Arizona. One thing I am pretty confident of...if every state did it, it would make for an interesting year of sports.

Thank you all for your great concern... I was just trying to figure out a way of how to get certain threads completely off the first page... you know what I am saying... Happy Monday
