Morgantown as a city is 10X better than it was even 20 years ago. We expect our football coach to recruit 85 quality scholarship athletes here. Morgantown is near two major interstate highways and only 90 miles from a major international airport. Building a top program surely can be accomplished in ...

When you guys talk about hiring coaches why is it you never mention Cary Kolat …. If you word search “Kolat” on this site for time period when the coaching opening occurred in March/April 2018, at least 4 separate posters here named Cary Kolat as one of their top choices. But the only opinion that ...

InterMat has Amos (2-0) at #16, which is still ridiculous.

As an aside, 5 of the top 10 wrestlers at 197 are from the Big 12.

Waynesburg High School is only 25 miles from Morgantown. We have to start successfully recruiting these WPIAL wrestlers if we ever hope to compete at the NCAA tournament.

Buckeyes signed #1,#2 and #3 ranked recruits… No. 1 Jesse Mendez. No. 2 Nic Bouzakis. No. 3 Nick Feldman. You may recall that in an interview after he won the Big 10 championship, Sammy Sasso issued a call “to all the young savages out there to come to Columbus.” Mendez’s father said his son was lis...

West Liberty also has several other ranked wrestlers in D2, including a #2 ranking at 184 lbs.

I was disappointed to see our school ranked 41T of 53 schools preseason by WIN magazine. Very disappointed. Let’s hope we prove WIN wrong. It’s time to turn the corner as a team in 2021-22.

Had had a great year and an incredible tournament. One win away from being an AA in the deepest weight class in college. I’ve wondered all year why he isn’t 157. I mean he’s no a tiny 165, he’s definitely gotten bigger, but it’s not like he’s huge either. And 157 isn’t anywhere near as tough as 165...

Making the finals of the Olympic trials right out of high school is the most incredible WV wrestling accomplishment I’ve seen in a long, long time. Wow.

PA all stars beat Team USA. Wyatt Henson won, 3-2.

It can be done.

In 21 seasons at Edinboro, Coach Flynn led the Fighting Scots to five top-10 finishes at the NCAA Tournament, 14 top-20 finishes and 18 top-25 finishes.

West Virginia in the Big 12 has to be an easier place to recruit than Edinboro.

4 of the 20 NCAA finalists wrestled in the WPIAL in high school — Iowa’s Spencer Lee (Franklin Regional); Michael Kemerer (Franklin Regional); Pitt’s Jake Wentzel (South Park) and Nino Bonaccorsi (Bethel Park).

Peyton was a 4x WV state champ at Oak Glen. He was one win away from being an NCAA D1 All American as a true freshman. Unfortunately in the consolation blood round he caught the No. 2 seed Valencia who was wrestling back after being upset.

Congrats on a great season in a tough weight class.

Pennsylvania led the nation by qualifying 49 of its former high school wrestlers for the NCAA tournament. Ohio only qualified 26 and Maryland qualified 2 of its former high schoolers. Pennsylvania’s District 7 (WPIAL) —which adjoins Mon County —alone had 17 of PA’s 49 qualifiers. The next closest wa...

Congrats to third place finishers Killian Cardinale and Noah Adams. Very proud of freshman qualifier Peyton Hall with his 4th place finish at the Big 12 tournament. Let’s get three All Americans.

Next time the job comes open be sure to apply with your recruiting abilities and wrestling knowledge. I’m sure you’ll be able to land the ones Flynn can’t or the ones Henson couldn’t. Easy to recruit from behind the computer screen. That’s a total deflection. Coaching college wrestling successfully...

And yet we lose this 2X PA State to Purdue? WVU has to recruit harder. Canon-Mac’s Gerrit Nijenhuis will be competing in the Pittsburgh Wrestling Classic this Saturday. Here is a link to a good article: https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/hsother/2020/03/09/2020-pittsburgh-wrestling-classic-rosters-...

I saw where Amos is listed to represent the 220lb class at the Pittsburg classic. Is this accurate? Be exciting to watch. I think Pennsylvania all stars has won this event every year. Coach 999- In fact, the USA all-stars have beaten Team Pennsylvania the past 8 straight years. PA competes well, bu...

Thanks.

Can someone post a quick link to updates from Huntington?

Thanks
