Re: Lehigh Valley Open

Steck ran it. It was the biggest wrestling tournament in the country for many, many years with well over 600 entries. I actually helped ref it as a member of the team in '71. There were some very sound wrestlers entered and it wasn't easy to win.

Legendary indeed.

Re: Columbia Head Coach Opening

Ok. Yeah, maybe Tanelli 'fled' but Roger stepped aside for a younger guy and Ayers took a step up -- can't really say they "fled." Koll left because the Ivies cancelled his season when they had a great team -- pissed him off. Stanford was not exactly a bad job. Of course, he's back at his ...

Re: Transfer portal

Agree with your sentiment about branding and marketing. Trouble is -- will the University 'brand wrestling' as their premier sport? Compared to wrestling , all other sports combined (men and women) have precious few AAs in their history. It is utter nonsense not to designate Wrestling as THE sport a...

Hopefully, Skellenger comes in and adds something to the LU room.

If you are referring to a Dillon replacement, yes, elevate ZRey and Evan Henderson and hire a new guy.....plenty to choose from.

Columbia Head Coach Opening

Brad Dillon would be perfect. Maybe not a NYC guy but still qualified and here's his chance before the window closes.

Re: Transfer portal

2 Freshman AAs is a huge accomplishment....notwithstanding NM's 'mine is bigger than yours' comment.

Re: Transfer portal

All true. Everything LUEngineer says. Oh, but if it were so when it comes to selling the uniqueness of the program. IMO, Pat and his staff do a great job with what they have. Truly remarkable in fact. Many have developed nicely. But not enough. But after seeing the list and understanding the Power t...

Re: Transfer portal

Agree with whiz wit. But disagree with LUEngineer. Lehigh culture? The goal is to win. What you're really saying is LU has to win with 'style points.' Winning programs have many advantages over Lehigh yet we manage to hold our own. Many are sick of holding our own. We are slipping ever more steadily...
