Series Finale of The Program on Iowa Hawkeyes: The Book of Iowa
There's something about Iowa...something that sets them apart from every single other program in the country. It's not just success that they're know for. It's a way of doing things at Iowa...doing things that other programs won't do...that allows them to stand alone. Tom and Terry Brands do not try to fit wrestlers into a specific mold. Rather, they try to hold each of their wrestlers to a specific standard. This is the reason why you see so many different wrestlers with so many different style become champions while wearing black and gold. In this episode, the series finale on the Hawkeyes, go behind the scenes to follow Matt McDonough as he breaks down his transformation in the Iowa room from high school wrestler to National Champion by his redshirt freshman year.

Great way to explain what a wrestler wants to someday achieve... That ability to train and be trained and still understand the ups and downs of the journey.I thought Coach Brands did an excellent job of being honest and letting young athletes know trust in the coaches and trust in yourself. Matt McDonough is great example of watching the guys a head of you and making the ultimate personal choice, He believed he could be as good if not better than what he was seeing. |
