  1. I don’t think they need to hire anyone. They are at the apex of ncaa wrestling.
  2. GOD! Negative Nellie. Poor Tom and Terry.
  3. Ha Ha! 106
  4. I think you misunderstood the part about under wing. TandT have invaluable resources, information , doner connections, knowledge of Iowa’s administration personalities, that facilitate a smooth coaching transition. It doesn’t have to be that way, but seems if possible, it would be good for all involved. Out going coaches, incoming coaches, administrators. And yes he does need to learn about Iowa, like any prospective coach coming in any job. The only thing is if Donny and Brands can and are willing to. Don’t think there is a negative side to it.
  5. Ok so nil puts the stop for this idea.
  6. Good hypothesis. Something needs to be looked at. Or the haves will continue to control the have nots.
  7. I always listen to my wife
  8. I thought I Bob Dole good. What about Elizabeth Dole? Wonder if she was good or bad?
  9. So my take here is ,from all the posts is, the sport is clean. Nobody takes Juice anymore, right? Accusations be damned.
  10. No , I agree , I think Purdue the same. And they did finish ahead of the group of schools you mentioned. But some of those are just having a down year or so, they haven’t been bottom feeders like northwestern, MSU, maybe Maryland, So the jury is out, to see if upward trend continues, or is a bump in the road?
  11. And does he want to be co-head coach. But I would think if tom took him under his wing with a promise of “if things work out in a few years, turning it over to him , it may be very tempting. Iowa has the money to toss at him.
  12. Yeah, Taylor like Joe Debuque , Becker. Jersey boys ,All went to Indiana. And we’re all very good. For Duane Goldman.
  13. They are in a hot bed of wrestling. I agree. No reason not to be where Purdue is.
  14. I thought that the only Big Ten school that didn’t hand out all 9.9 scollies was Northwestern.
  15. That s interesting. I do like easing Pritzlaff into the top spot. And the time is not right to dismiss the Brands. They do a lot of things right, contrary to what the naysayers want to believe. Pritzlaff has a lot to learn about running a machine like Iowa. And sharing the responsibility with TandT takes away a lot of pressure.
  16. We have the group Purdue , Indiana , Northwestern, Michigan State, Maryland. Wisconsin is trending this way if not careful. No calling anyone out, just looking at the trend in the conference most years, lately. Without landing an in state elite or two, and retaining your developed guys it is impossible to move in the conference most years. Contending with the hammer schools in the conference. I don’t really see how it will change. Coaching is one thing ,recruiting and retaining talent is totally different.
  17. lol! Never ever be able to perform at Jim’s level of fame and fortune.
  18. The conference has the perennial bottom feeders that never get a chance at the elite level in state athletes. Michigan State can be counted in that group.
  19. Michigan state isn’t the only team in the conference that is a wrestling waste land. Big Ten from top to bottom ,doesn’t throw its weight around anymore. Kids see other opportunities and programs that are producing. With social media coaches recruit all over the country better.
  20. It’s been 9 hours. So what’s the next topic?
  21. I really think that I know who would be the best PR man , recruiting for tom.
