I dont like the thought of it either AT ALL, I like wrestling as much as football and we have one of the best programs in our back yard, they keep trying to do all these big things with the national duals and whatever else, but THIS is what needs attention, THIS is what needs to be on t.v, yes penn state has been good for 5 seconds but Iowa/OSU hate each other with a passion and it will be a brawl and that is what people need to see to bring excitement back to the sport, not some b.s changes they don't need and then don't promote so it sucked last year, I was at the 1st round in Ames last year and it was pathetic, maybe a few thousand people there. Is that what you want on t.v, or would you rather see a packed house watching 2 teams that hate each other throwing bombs trying to fight to be number 1 again?

FYI, BTN has never shown an IOWA - Okie State dual meet, even when they were ranked #1 and #2 and not even when IOWA was working on the streak.

do you remember the guy on HI (Jim something????) - bluz knows who i'm thinking of ... he had some project to get kids to watch wrestling - and i took him up on it years ago. My focus was to save CSF cal state Fullerton - when i donated some money and then brought some kids from my son's FB team to see Minny slaughter the titans. kids loved it - i thought it would make some difference. Titans don't have wrestling no more.
Really sucks - a state that has 30k HS wrestlers does not have many state college schools supporting the sport.
How do WE, WE get the sport noticed outside of Iowa/PA/OK? I was a fan of Jim's efforts - but don't know how to make it bigger. Wished that the UFC craze would have fueled the interest!!

I agree and do you mean GG? No one has heard from him in awhile, I hope he is ok. I really thought UFC would bring more attention to wrestling as well even more so when most all great fighters are former wrestlers. I wish I had more money because I would do something HUGE to bring eyes on the sport. I mean D1 is picking up more programs so maybe slowly it is headed back in the right direction. Would be nice to get Texas and Florida to have D1 programs and I agree for as tough and great as wrestling is in Cali. it is disappointing that a big school doesnt have a program like Cal,UCLA or USC

anyways - a couple great TV ads that lasts 15 seconds - and a 2 hour episode to interrupt the continuous replays of the world strangest man on ESPN would be great for the sport.
