To everybody who says this move is crap:
I agree. It's not that great of a move and you will not get very far with it against a good wrestler... BUT- there are times (no matter what level of competition you're wrestling at) when an opportunity to hit this move and get a fall will present its self. You shouldn't go out onto a mat looking specifically for this move, but take it if it's there. One of the most important principals of wrestling is to take what your opponent gives you, and that includes youth moves, even a barn yard.

P.S.- lighten up, they're teaching it to kids so that they can have fun.

This technique definately will work. Often times you can pull down on the elbow making them unprepared for punching through. This is a move that will work on all levels, but like any move, it wont work all the time.

It will take some high school coach 3 years to de-program this crap out of these kids. Unbelievable. If you guys are getting thin on techniques for Tuesday I can send you some tapes.
If you have to send tapes, then save it. The Cow Catcher is a solid fundamental move suitable for youngsters in the age group he is dealing with. And as some have said, this move works at all levels. If they learn it now, then this is something they will be able to keep in their tool box that they can pull out when ever they need it.

I like it Krause...And its not crap, its legit. It just isn't something you do in the first period...its something you do after you wear your opponent down, with heavy hands. One problem though, its called a Cement Job, not a cow catcher!

Coach Krause,

Thanks for the post. I appreciate it.

are you kidding me? 3 years ago

you think this coach is intimidating the younger wrestlers? his practices do look fun and exciting with off beat banter and joking around. he was singing a whole new world for christs sake.

I didn't say Krause was a poor coach, he actually seems quite into it...and I like that. I coach a high level HS club and get kids coming all the time trying this crap. 90% of the time they end up on their own back. I actually agree with everything Krause said about the position until he showed this. We work the short drag and anchor to go behind. Once behind, our PT is so good we score lots.
Good Coach, I hear you on the going into the 3.4 times a match and having to be able to score in it and then going to the cow catcher as the "move". I would have gone with a left right snap to a double elbow control and spin to the right!. They dont go together but I went into it because it was a youth technique and the main thing I wanted to point out was the driving back over the ankles, like Metcalf did. I guess my brain skipped. Not any of my guys are hooked on this, in fact i dont think many hit it. But I dont think its crap. Krause

Very interesting. He baited him into reaching up so he could get the underhood deep. Clever.

If anyone thinks the cement job is a horrible move to show wrestlers of any age, then they must not have watched much high-level wrestling. The cement job, when done right, works on all levels of the sport. Ever see Johnny Thompson, Tom Brands or Brent Metcalf wrestle? Then you've seen someone pinned in a cement job before. Anyone remember Rob Rohn hitting the cement mixer in the finals of the NCAA tournament for the fall? Headlocks, inside trips, lateral drops, cement jobs, etc., all work when done right and you will see them every year in the NCAA tournament. Wrestlers need to have some 5-point moves in their arsenal, especially when they're losing with short time on the clock. If you don't have some 5-point moves you can hit when you need them, you are severely limiting yourself as a wrestler.

Wow, I'm amazed that anyone can have a negative opinion of Krause. I guess its a free country. In regards to teaching kids headlocks and cow-catchers being bad...Krause qualified it by saying you need to give kids some moves to have success early. Besides, if you watch his technique sessions, he is teaching position first and the move second, which is the key to any young wrestler learning the sport correctly. If you teach a youngster position first, it doesn't matter what technique style they follow, because they will stay in good postion. Furthermore, why do you think that Technique Tuesday is a little watered down. Probably, to entice you to purchase the Technique Wave service. For those that don't like Technique Tuesday or Krause, or whatever, don't watch Flo. The rest of us will and get 1% better everyday. BRING IT!

if my guys do this they get 100 push ups
First, Krause said "get your opponent kind of softened-up. He's pretty tired in the third period." This tells you right away that he knows this is not a bread-n-butter move.

Second, he does not teach the kids to get out of position to get this move.

Third, this is a possible match-ender.

To be clear Good Coach, you punish your wrestlers when they are able to tire their opponent out, stay in good position, and potentially pin their opponent. I consider this to be a low percentage move but the return on investment is high. I think that you should reevaluate your previous comments about this move. Reevaluate on 3. 1,2,3.....REEVALUATE
