Apparently John Smith is going to wrestle the Okie State softball coach this Friday. Hopefully video is posted online somewhere!

The football coach is a man. He was forty at one point. If you want to go after somwbody, go after him!

The softball coach is a man, too. He lost a bet with his players and now has to wrestle Smith - it's not Smith going after him. Here is the article from InterMat: http://intermatwrestle.com/articles/16935

That's interesting!

Well, when they wrestle Bedlam this year, maybe John Smith would want to wrestle Lou Rosselli as a pre-cursor to the match.

They are always looking for marketing gimmicks to draw more people to matches, that one would be great!

That might be an interesting match-up?

This has to be a tongue-in-cheek promotion. This guys got no chance of beating Smith. When I was in college, once in awhile I would roll around with someone who knew nothing about wrestling, only what they saw on TV. They walk into takedowns, they don't really know what to do with you once you put a collar tie on them. They let you set up TDs without knowing it. Smith will just toy with him, even if he is outweighed. A simple fireman's carry will put that guy on his back. It will be snapdown/ankle pick city if Smiths wants to.

It looked like Smith was laughing most of the time, hard to keep a straight face. He was in his element, the other coach wasn't. They did a good job of staging everything, looked like fun.
