Trueblue, that is like saying if the economy goes bad under a president it is his fault, not really the case. A lot of variables are in the equation.

Well lets say they have made iowa better, they arent exactly great leaders when it comes to expanding the sport of wrestling. With the spotlight and fame for so many years wrestling under Dan Gable fell off the map. His only direct responsibility was Iowa and he did a legendary job. But if you look at the global results of wrestling, while he was the major figure in wrestling, wrestling had a tragic downfall. The results speak for themselves.

I'll never understand why some people do not like Iowa. They win by simply out working their opponents. It's honest and blue collar. Gable and now Brands have have not only made Iowa better but they have made wrestling in America better.

Iowa wrestling is great! Thank God for Gable. USA Wrestling should be thankful that this program is back where it should be, thanks large in part to Tom Brands.

Coach Carty October 17 at 5:12pm.

#65
Wrsl141 October 12 at 12:22pm.
anyone else notice how much they were slipping, and i know the sweat was there, but even in the beginning they were all over the place.
#64
Ichawk October 12 at 12:17pm.
iowa HAS recruited minority kids, the difference is that Marion qualified grade wise. the others didn't, so they went elsewhere. (iowa state) no, everyone in the room isn't a Rhodes scholar, but at least they made the grades to get in.

Tap Out October 12 at 11:47am.
Cali now we're comparing high school to college? I would say there are at least 30-50 programs with coaches from the gable era who have brought that same philosophy to the program. I have been in practices thaat were intense like that. Caliwrestling, we had those machines in our room and they were called rail runners. not sure if that is correct or not
#62
Caliwrestling October 12 at 7:19am.
What is the machine called at min 6:30 that the kid is using?
We had some in college but i haven't seen them since.
Who are they made by and what is the name of them?

Joey October 11 at 11:38pm.
schwab was toying with metcalf
#60
Calif October 11 at 8:20pm.
Tap Out. I would disagree that intensity is intensity. Intensity coming from top ranked college guys is much different than the best intensity coming from a decent high school kid

Omg October 11 at 3:54pm.
now that is a practice!!!!!!!

Ding ding ding we have a winner. all i said was i know what those days were like

Welch's Grapejuice October 10 at 10:17pm.
To Tap Out, unless you have wrestled in a D-one program like that, you have never been through a practice that intense.
#53
Gasping October 10 at 9:01pm.
Mercy, are these guys undercover Marines?
#52
Tap Out October 10 at 8:54pm.
Welch's I can tell you never wrestled for a coach with much success Because My coach put us through practices much the same I did say the talent was not the same but intensity is still intensity.
#51
Hawkfan October 10 at 8:26pm.
Don't know what your getting at, but Iowa does recruit and welcome minorities. Coach Brands and his staff recruit the best wrestlers for the program regardless of ethnicity.
#50
Question Guy October 10 at 6:17pm.
Does Iowa not recruit minorities or do they just choose to go else where to continue with their wrestling? just wondering
#49
Hey October 10 at 4:51pm.
video isn't working!!!!!!!!
#48
Welch's Grapejuice October 10 at 4:49pm.
No duh these guys are badasses. You don't have to have a video tell you that. Just keep up with all their tourneys and duals. But this video does add to their badassness.

Hey T, I'd bet against you. I'm pretty sure they run Gable-style practices like this all year long.

neck brace shmeck face....back in my day we still practiced with a full body cast on. What a bunch a slackers.... ;-)
#29
T October 9 at 1:04pm.
Looks like a great intense practice. However, I doubt they will be able to continue at that pace until March nor do I think the coaching staff will plan like this all season. In fact, I don't think many will being that we are only in October. Looks like a solid team with hard working wrestlers.
#28
ED THE DOOBER October 9 at 12:47pm.
THAT WAS THE MOST BADASS WRESTLING VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN. THAT IS WHY IOWA IS MY FAVORITE TEAM. SO MUCH INTENSITY!

Metcalf gets to work out with an olympian, who gets mike and does Jared ever workout with em? Didn't see Terry today....what a room of brawlers!

Winning Is Fun. October 9 at 9:01am.
Gable had a theory that if you need music in the wrestling room to push yourself that you will not be able to do the same when there is no music during competition. Ahh but what does he know.
#16
Tom Sc October 9 at 8:51am.
What a great place to be if you want to be great.

My son still needs an IzzyStyle shirt too btw!
#14
Ugh October 9 at 8:17am.
it seems REALLY dead and depressing in the room. put on some music or SOMETHING to get the guys goin a bit more. makes me depressed just watching; I'm goin to watch Missouri practices.. now those are fun
#13
Jacked October 9 at 8:12am.
Great coverage, to bad USA wrestling couldn't figure out how to do this, wait take a survey first to see what people want!!!!

Go with the FLO!

Girl Push-ups? October 9 at 7:22am.
who would have ever though that Iowa would be doing girl push-ups from their knees at the end of practice..ha, all kidding aside, nasty video. All rooms should strive to be pushing themselves this hard every practice...

Welch's Grapejuice October 9 at 12:47am.
I thought I work hard in practice, but after watching this, I have a whole new perception on what working hard is. Besides that, I'm speechless and in awe of what the Iowa wrestlers go through everyday. Amazing vid Flow! I'm pretty sure,but someone please clarify for me, is that Doug shwab wrestling with Metcalf? Those 2 were giving it their all and acting like practice is life or death. And who was woopin' up on Nate Moore?
#6
JO FACE October 9 at 12:46am.

who was that wrestling with Nate Moore?

Zebulin Miller October 8 at 11:34pm.
These guys are so high level, to keep that intensity so long, all season is like superhuman! Talking to an Iowa NCAA Champ over the weekend and he said, "Brands gives so much, you just want to please him". It looks like every guy on the team feels that way. Plus the new staff, this is the standard, by which college wrestling is measured. I wish I could wish them luck, but they don't need it.

Amazing October 8 at 11:24pm.
Tom Brands sure knows how to get people to work.

Iowa "Short Time Workout"

Tom Brands puts his Hawkeyes through a tough workout that is mostly live wrestling. The scenario is that both wrestlers are behind in the match with little time on the clock.
