Absolutely. Cael did it as a bet with the team. I don't recall what the bet was. Maybe the first national championship. I think it's great that both DT and TG are willing to lead by example, and to show the fence sitters that they are willing to do everything that they are asking of others to do. Great stuff.
Cowboy RTC and the next quad

Probably, a small “break” from wrestling helps with healing and the psyche.
John Smith I believe he won in 91. Then Olympic Gold in 92. Kendall won Olympic Gold in 96
If DT wrestles at 92 and wins it, that would be OK State's first World Champ in almost 30 years. Put some others on the podium or even just on the team and that would be a good jump start for the RTC!
Holy crap. I guess I knew it’s been a while since OSU had a world champ, but hadn’t done the math on exactly HOW long. Here’s hoping that changes here sooner rather than later (and not just with DT/Gilman).
Yeah, Olympic Gold medals do not just grow on trees. They are incredibly hard to come by and it is easy to take them for granted when you have a guy like John Smith winning them for you.
DT is officially wrestling at trials this weekend
Nope, Bo, Marcus and Mocco
What if it's Dake and the only reason DT entered was to make this announcement
Fits the September timeline rumored in May, and would be a dramatic RTC statement if he wins and makes an introduction afterwards.
Willie has said there’s something big going on but it’s not a flip so maybe a Dake announcement is it
He was a pirate that had one eye and horded a buried treasure well into the 1980s until a group kids found his remains.
Heyyyyy youuu guyyyyys
I honestly think he earned it by being right alot. His ranking ability, seedings/predictions, tourney ideas and the relationships he’s built have made him the top follow in wrestling imo. That’s not to say he’s always an easy follow. He’s kind of like Trump… a lot of good hard data and results but hard for some people to like due to his antics. I find him pretty entertaining other than gate keeping alittle too much imo.
If Daton can win this tournament, what effect does that have on recruiting right now?
I think there is a lot going on that could affect recruiting. There is a real chance for OSU to be what everyone is talking about.
If Daton beats Vito that is a massive improvement over a few months all at the hands of DT and staff. Would be a good thing to point at during recruiting trips.
Old staff got a world silver out of daton which is pretty great, but new training styles can work wonders when development has plateaued.
Guessing someone on the old staff was her coach so it just wasn’t a fit anymore, especially since DT is pretty frugal with RTC funds and is focused on the team.
Well she posted on Instagram some months back about receiving a email saying she was no longer apart of the CWC. She didn’t just leave or anything like that. She was told she was out. That’s what I was wondering about anyone knowing anymore to the story.
Ouch
It was alluded to that she hadn’t been around much (which makes sense considering they emailed her).
