Campbell is flat insane. Hit a clinic not long ago and he showed his outside step High C. It's got to be the most unstoppable move I've seen. And of course, you pull up his Bronze medal match and what move does he hit? Yep this very same outside High C. One of the most technically sounds wrestlers the USA has produced, EVER. A magician on the mat.

I never said that the athletes that are at Iowa now are not athletic, they just don't rely on their athleticism to win matches, they rely on conditioning, FOR THE MOST PART. There are exceptions, but you don't see many Darrion Caldwell, Jordon Burroughs, Mike Poeta (who is white, but very athletic) coming through the Iowa program on a consistent basis.

This is going to sound very racist and it looks like I am throwing out stereotypes, but for the most part, African-American wrestlers have the flashy explosive type of wrestling and they tend to rely on athleticism more than conditioning. An Iowa wrestler relies on conditioning more than athleticism.

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.

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

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.
