When Tom was hired he was still living in the Gable era and Gable was still popular with his style and that sold on recruits but honestly kids today maybe know of Gable but its been so long ago that although a great wrestler and coach in his day kids dont know his history and success and they are looking for the best today. Tom and Terry are deciples of Gable and did great but have never really changed with the styles of todays kids to keep up with other young coaches. The days of that grinder brawler are over kids are more offensive scoring more points using freestyle and it just seems like T and T are still living in the gable era. I know some names have been thrown out ther but I wish they would call Doug Schwab because was he has done at UNI for having far less is impressive and he is an energetic former hawk. Its weird thinking we need to make a coaching change when were consistently in the top 3 or 4 in the country witch would be unreal for all the other sports but at Iowa the standard was set years ago that it national championship or nothing.
With all due respect to Schwab, that would be a disappointment. He doesn’t move the needle in comparison to PSU or OSU
