IRON,
I'm not sure if you've ever seen a college weight room, with college S&C coaches. It's really not that hard. And he was cutting a ton to get to 197. So when he says he put on forty pounds - he just means from the weight class. He wrestled 195 his senior year. The year he won NCAAs he weighed in at 238.
He was NOT good in high school. He won 1 state title, but had never even qualified for the state tournament prior to that. And he won a weight that wasn't even good. No ranked wrestlers, and he didn't wrestle ANYONE. Didn't go to any tough tournaments, didn't wrestle at the beast, didn't wrestle a ranked wrestler. So to answer your question - before he entered PSU, he did nothing, had beaten no one.
Carl gets credit for developing Cassar and even Rasheed to a certain degree. Neither were top-ranked recruits and no one was looking at them as future starters for NCAAs. Carl also gets credit for the misses. Berge, Gulibon, Nevills, the deterioration of the Suriano relationship.
And you clearly haven't seen these NFL players that go from 325 to 205 and look like half of the human beings they were when they played football. And the NFL has one of the most stringent drug testing programs, so you can't say they're just all on the sauce.
You lose this argument. Just leave it alone.
