Per Spencer, the only two programs he considered were Iowa and Penn State. Reading between the lines of what Spencer had to say, I think he felt he needed to be pushed hard to reach his potential and he felt Tom and Terry could do that for him. It has been mentioned ad nauseam here, but I think Spencer would have been better served under Cael's measured tutelage rather than the frenetic coaching approach of Terry and Tom.

Even in this interview, Terry keeps piling on the praise of Spencer. I can't imagine the stress of trying to live up to those expectations. I ultimately think it has been those expectations that have hindered Spencer. I also don't think it is unreasonable to think Spencer's chronic injuries stem at least in part from Tom and Terry's approach to training.

I suspect you're going to have to travel to Gunma, Japan. Articles written in 2016 indicate he was coaching high schoolers there.
