Having OkState out last year was incredible...largest crowd of the season (7k+) at Gill for any sport. One way that some of these top tier teams could help the sport (and some already do) is by going out and wrestling a lower level team at their place. Having a huge crowd with a big name team does a lot for the momentum of a program. Sponsored by INTERMAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gannon Gremmell has recently stated he declined an offer of $40K to come back, and he's not even on the same level as some of these other guys. When these guys are not on a full scholarship, it might cost them $40k a year in tuition just to come back depending on the school/in state tuition/etc...

As great as I think it is for the sport to have a B1G school to have women's wrestling, the prime/only reason that Iowa started their women's program was because they were sued for cutting other women's sports.

Yes and no. The lawsuit caused them to add a women’s sport. But it didn’t need to be wrestling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
