I do know that even the majority of DI football programs spend more than they take in.  Now I don't know if this is/will be true with the NIL environment.

There's definitely a good number of kids that cross train at multiple clubs.  I know of a few AWA kids that drop in at Nazar once a week to get an extra practice in and to find different partners.

Also how many locations each club has as well will kinda skew the numbers as well

Quote from: Scramble_king on May 10, 2024, 07:00:44 PMI wonder what % of athletes to win and place from each club would be.

Probably an interesting statistic but it would also not tell the whole story of each club. Some clubs get a lot of the 2nd tier and 3rd tier talent and not the top tier talent.

What's great is the competitive nature of the young wrestlers and the willingness to train to be better.

After watching the Oklahoma State press conference, I think a legitimate contender now exists.  David Taylor is the right person and Oklahoma State is the right place.  At a bare minimum, it will be exciting to follow them.  This is good for wrestling!

I only hope we see more of this after the Olympics and World Championships later this year.  Dake to Iowa would be interesting for sure.  Maybe not the right fit, but Dake would be another game changer and Iowa has everything else (tradition, money, facilities, etc).

Does anyone think Askren to Wisconsin is on this same level?  Yes Wisconsin is missing a lot and it would be a long shot with the amount of things that would need to happen, but this combination actually has potential (just look at the team score post AWA consistently shares on social media from NCAA and UWW qualifier events).  Bringing in a couple RTC athletes (AWA alum), bringing in a couple portal transfers (AWA alum), flipping a couple commitments, actually securing the borders, and creating PNL pipeline to WI. If this happened, I can guarantee one thing, I would be actively supporting again.  Things like filling the field house, securing new donors, kids wearing Badger Wrestling t-shirts again; these things might actually happen.  On the flip side, unfortunately what we do know, none of this happens in the current scenario.

Do you know these coaches' relationship the wrestlers? Some coaches do have  children who wrestle and other family as well. Is there a rule against that?
