He's joining Cliff Keen wrestling club. Good luck to him.

begs the question...What is the OhioRTC doing at 57kg (or 61,65,70,74,79,86 or 92 for that matter)? I imagine they will have several student athletes on the team, but where are all of the professional athletes?

I thought he just accepted the head coaching position at his former high school thus past year? Thought he was done with wrestling. Maybe i'm mistaken.

Im curious if ORTC has any money to pay these guys. NLWC was endowed something like $5M and has the funds to pay the top guys. I would imagine Cliff Keen has some money to pay some of these guys.

I went to the website and only kollin Moore and dhesi are listed as athletes. The Ohiortc has really started to dry up. It was the premiere spot to be within the last decade.

If you would have told me years ago that Snyder would be wrestling in Happy Valley and Tomo in Ann Arbor I would have laughed.

Assistant coach. I’m not sure these guys have to be at the RTC 100% of the time.

I could be wrong.

Not started. Much like the great Salt Lake, it's on life support, facing extinction. What happened?

What did you do, Nick?

His value lies in wrestling with the Medley, Ragusin and Mattin.

One more guy in the room to add intensity and maybe raise up the level of those guys. To maybe achieve All American status.

He's basically a lightweight coach.

Truth is that it is a little bit of throwing darts blindfolded at this point.

What can stick?

In order to help someone, you have to know them and what they do. Hard to accomplish that in a couple months (this season). Maybe a bunch of video review will jumpstart the process.

What happens in reality is that coaches show them what made them successful; it doesn't necessarily translate to the wrestler. A lot of time it just frustrates them.

Unless you specifically improve a weakness or deficit, you are wasting everyone's time.

Time is a resource in short supply during the wrestling season.

^^^ That remains one of my very biggest regrets, as a wrestler - that I spent nearly all of my time working on my strengths (easier, and more "fun"), and not nearly enough on my weaknesses.

Who knows whether this would have made any difference in the grand scheme of things.
But oh what I would pay now, to find out. ;)

Casey-

Everyone needs that one coach.

Some of the best advice is, "stop doing that and do this instead, here's why."
and then drilling until it is habit.
and then executing when fatigued while not regressing to the original habit.

That is the guy.
