Had always heard this story, wasn't sure if it was true. When Askren was working for wisco, someone asked it as a question on FRL. He confirmed it.

Spencer Myers did it for maryland a couple of years back. Extremely tough to do. Don't think he ever AA'd but made the quarters at Hwt.
I almost wish he wasn’t putting on such a strong showing. Poachers are going to be out in full swing.

Herrera beats Glines 6-0 and in the finals
They called stalling on Glines for just sitting on an ankle while riding too. Love to see that

Don't follow OSU's recruiting much. Does DC have much of a tie with Oklahoma State anymore? Didn't know if he pushed kids that way?
No doubt Cael has built a formidable situation at PSU which includes the NLWC. And for how mush $$$ Dresser seems to raise the caliber of athletes in CWC is sub-par. Having said that, if I were Dresser/Metcalf/St. John my argument would be a team can only start 10 guys. At the end of the day wrestlers want to put on a singlet and compete. You can achieve just as much at ISU as you can at PSU (i.e. David Carr).
I may be way off, but i always saw the RTC's more as a way to help recruiting and coaching. You get to add a coach and afterwards that wrestler who sticks around can go RTC roster and pull some cash to recoup some of the smaller scholarship that they agreed to take. Then throw in you get a coach and maybe a couple higher end finished wrestlers who will work out with your wrestlers to give them better competition.
There's more to it than that as far as how the CRTC spends its dollars.
I’m aware. My point is look at senior level guys at Iowa and Penn State. The only resident athlete listed on the CRTC website is a kid I’ve never heard named Duncan Lee. We need to up our game.
I wonder if recruits pay more attention to the mystery guys in the room who no one knows about, or maybe they see the guys out competing on the circuit for their clubs?
I'd guess recruits care more about NIL and coaches/teammates than Senior level guys. I'm not saying that you shouldn't try to get all 3 but if you can only afford 2 out of 3 then I would say our coaches have made the right decisions.
