I wonder what % of athletes to win and place from each club would be.

Agreed. Askren is doing an incredible job but they do have a lot more kids by volume. Additionally a lot of kids may not have made it to Madison for the tournament.

In any event I think most if not all on this forum would agree that doing FS/Greco and club work year round are going to produce better wrestlers!

Wisconsin Wrestling Fan - I'd be all for Eric Barnett if they went that route.  Very humble and talented guy!

I wouldnt say Barnett.  He's moved back to the Fox Cities and is with his fiance I believe, he also stated on a recent podcast he was starting a new job in the insurance industry.

As for Max Askren - no way in heck Bono would do this.

Eric could still do his clinics and make a larger salary (at least initially) as an Assistant Coach than an insurance job. Would be a tough decision for him though. It sounded like he wanted flexibility in his career.

40-50 (men's and women's rosters combined) new student athletes x $20k in tuition = $800K-$1M in additional revenue annually for a university, correct?  Plus you could add housing, food plan, books/school supplies into the revenue equation. 

I'm sure I am overly simplifying this, but what are we missing?  Seems like a no brainer.

Best of luck to Seth.  I would imagine the travel recruiting and during the season is tough on the family. Do he and Model switch positions or do we see some new blood enter the room? 

So, who's going to start the list of possible replacements?

Dieringer
Becker (takeover program in 2-3 years)
Barnett
Who knows.
