Discussion Topic: Logans First TD Against Carter
Mike Taylor added to this discussion on December 14, 2014

Quote from Doug Brandt's post:

"Logan has had to wrestle his whole collegiate career in the Big Ten.

The other three, as great as they obviously were, wrestled in comparatively weaker conferences.

Pat and Kyle might have had a few more losses had they wrestled in the Big Ten.

Cael? Naw. He'd still have been undefeated."


I wonder if Dake would have won 4x had he wrestled in the B1G. I'm not discounting his tremendous abilities but as a Freshman he would have faced Reece multiple times (he split w/ him during the regular season) and Marion. Sophomore year he would have faced Molinaro multiple times which would have given him opportunities to learn from his mistakes. Junior year he would have had to beat a good Deric St. John. Based on the way the finals match went, that match would have been even closer had they faced each other multiple times earlier. I don't know if his senior year would have gone any differently. Where he MIGHT have been tripped up is in his early college wrestling career.
Just goes to show that sometimes its about TIME and PLACE.
