ASU - a big change considering how they were seen at the first of the year.

An imagined world - better parity across D1 programs
AgaveMaria replied to Dark Energy's topic in College Wrestling
How would you ensure parity? Tell some kids they can't go to the school/coach they want? Would never work. Some kids will choose a specific school or program even if they know they will sit on the bench behind a Kyle Dake, Cael Sanderson or such. -
If you have one who served a church missionary tour for two years and then a hitch in the military they could come in at 24-25 years old as a True Freshman. Even if they wrestled a ton of tournaments while in the service, maybe even on a service team.

Is this a test run for the Tom Brands model?

He would most likely be as successful again. He was a force of nature and got his wrestlers to buy into the reality that they were Champions - and they went out and proved it. Cael is the same - just different methods. Both are great leaders who get their kids to push for excellence even if some don't quite get there on the mat.

Watched Spencer in the first match back. If that is "looking great" your Cinnebons are buffalo chips or cow pies. He should do great but is way out of shape for now. Against one of the top half dozen he probably would have lost, maybe passed out from lack of oxygen.
