A couple of notes, about your attachment, showing the 2008 #1 ranked Gopher recruiting class. #2 Rutgers #3 Central Michigan Penn State - not even listed in the top 25. PSU hired Cael the next year and a dynasty was born. I'm behind Eggum and co. but if the administration decides to make a change after this year, pony up some dough and land a huge name. Hire Sanderson! He claims he went to PSU for a less than 10% raise. Figure out what he was paid at ISU and double it! I wonder if we somehow lured Cael, would some kids return home? ;) |

He went to PSU because it is and has been for 50 years the top producer of D1 talent for wrestling. He has so much to choose from right in his back yard. Now add that wrestlers are coming there without taking scholly money because he makes it fun. His team is always having fun. He doesn't preach the smash mouth in your face style that Gable taught and has been the norm of the typical National Champ over the past 30+ years. Now it's always easier to have fun when your 10 man lineup has the top ranked guy at 7 out of the 10 weights, but there is a reason why they do have that. You cannot hide the fact that Cael has built something that other schools will not be able to compete with due to his proximity to the wrestling hotbed. No proof of this, but I have read in multiple places that there are at least 2 blue chip wrestlers at PSU not taking any scholly money and from what I understand their 149lb National Champ Retherford has an academic scholarship that pays his way.

I referenced that class not because it was number one, but because it is a great example of what not to do. We went out and got the best recruiting class in the country with Dietchler, Mincey, Mason, Gieger, and Disney as top recruits. Within a few years, none of them were still with the program. We need to find the right recruits, not the best recruits. |

It is a problem that we are worried about retaining kids who need a plane to get here. |

I've heard almost that exact line from a half-dozen Midwestern football coaches... I don't think it's exclusively a U of MN wrestling problem. |

There is no question that particular group of top rated out of state recruits did not pan out. What about all of the top rated out of state wrestlers that did pan out such as; Eggum, Hahn, Kish, Konrad, Lawrence brothers, Lowney, Reiter, and the Schlatter brothers. Just because a few of the top rated out of state guys did not work out certainly doesn't mean we should not continue to go after them. To win a team championship you must be able to recruit some of those superstars. |

Since 2010, Sonny Yohn, Scott Schiller and Chris Dardanes all 3x AA, Logan Storley 4x AA. Those are pretty good out of state recruits. |

I personally know a couple kids that were recruited by JROB and his staff and the one thing each of them said was that JROB was getting long in the tooth and he came across as arrogant. I'm in know way saying that's the case, this is just what I heard from multiple kids. Kind of a "we're doing you a favor" type attitude. Maybe it's BS, I don't know. A lot of these top recruits want to win. Hard to turn down that ride to Penn St. when they are nabbing up anything ranked top 10. |

The real problem is that Minnesota is clearly ignoring one of the most important parts of the equation with recruiting -- the girlfriend. The speculation is that Oklahoma State is the front runner to get Fix when he makes his announcement on Wednesday. Fix and his girlfriend took their senior pictures TOGETHER and guess where she is going to school -- you guessed it -- Oklahoma State. Find out who these guys are dating and give their girlfriend the scholarship ASAP -- they'll follow:) |

Luke Troy of CA is reportedly no longer committed to the Hawkeyes. Was originally recruited by MN but he committed early so Idk if interest is still there. |

Bono has the recruit train rolling at SDSU. I am a big fan of Bono and SDSU wrestling and what he has done over the past 5 years with that program is unbelievable. He is great motivator and knows how to promote his program. You will see much more Minnesota talent going west in the future if the U doesn't turn it around.
