If he’s going to 74, David should be blowing up his phone. Iron sharpens iron. And I really like the idea of watching cyclones be champs in back to back finals matches next year.
Michigan can piss right off. He’s a Stanford grad, he’ll make plenty of money in his life. What would set him up better to make a run at the top of the podium in his last go round than training day in and day out with David?
Sounds like a perfect fit at THE Iowa State University of Science and Technology.
as great as Carr is, Michigan has Amine there. Also has Ringer, M Amine, Pantaleo on the senior level. Unfortunately they’d be better from a training perspective as well.

It does, but so does the 11 team titles and 34 individual ncaa champions under Cael.
I had mentioned many years ago that I felt one of the worst things to happen to collegiate wrestling was Iowa dominating it (not just because it was Iowa, I don’t think it’s good when any one team does). Hawkeye fans went nutty on me and said it was positive for the sport and brought people to it. Wonder if they believe the same now with Cael? I still think it’s not positive.
Nah. Hawks fans are the world champs of mental gymnastics. Bending that one would be easy for them to make those two not the same.
Need to get recruits every other year in the top 10, and find a few hidden gems.
It might've been good for the sport, but that had more to do with the buffoonery of the Iowa coaches, wrestlers, and fans creating a villain. Penn State is all of the winning without all of the theatrics. In the big picture, I think a dynasty is probably a net positive for the sport, especially because it's Cael. That Gable/Sanderson storyline would be tough to write as fiction.
For the diehards, it has taken a lot of the drama out of the competition, which is where wrestling really excels. I'm not sure how you stop PSU at this point.
This. How is the sport, any sport, better when you already know who’s going to win?
