How many NC's do Iowa's Top 10 P4P recruits have?
This post looks reasonable but is completely wrong imo. The difference between good and great is situational wrestling and is tied to recruiting. If you recruit good guys you will have to spend valuable coaching time shoring up the basics to make that wrestler an AA, little time is left helping that guy reach the top, which requires knowing what to do in different positions. You recruit a great wrestler and you can target situational positions moreso to get the great ones to the next level (multiple NC). Recruiting and coaching are tied at the hip. They go hand in hand. By recruiting top end kids, the coaching style changes as well.Every coach on every level teaches 99% of the same techniques. PSU May have a tendency to use that 1% on an ankle pic series. Iowa on a bar arm series. NC state on leg rides, etc.
Cael isn’t better at teaching wrestling. At this level, it’s about connecting with your guys to get the most out of them.
I would imagine if you blindly guaged the mat teaching of all coaches at this level, it’d be hard to separate Cael from Eggum.
Under Brands or All-Time?
So, his top 10 recruits that actually wrestled for him went-
Metcalf- Ineligible,1,2,1
Nate Moore-quickly ineligible and transferred out.
Ramos-R12,3,2,1
Evans-DNP,6,6,6
Kemerer-3,4,?,?
Marinelli-6,7,?,?
Lee-1,1,?,?
Warner-7,?,?,?
Nate Moore wrestled a couple of years for Iowa and then got a staff infection in his knee after surgery and never wrestled again.
This is a silly post. Not disputing that karl can coach, but suggesting that he is doing something, from a mat coaching perspective, that is head and shoulders above what other active coaches do, is silly and proven incorrect when you look at his results at ISU..
Cassar was 2015 National Freestyle Champion and World team member @96kg he was already Good.
Unranked walk on my ass He was already Good.
This was pre-roids though right?HeH was both unranked and a walk on
Facts can be painful.

Cassar was not ranked, they listed him as "other". But I get your argument 3rd string 197 at the start of 2018 to 2019 national champion and Cael has nothing to do with it? I will grant it was 70%+ Cassar and his dedication and work ethic and 30% skills homed by Cael himself on the mat

Cael doesn't have much of a coaching tree. As far as I know, nobody gets out of the Hotel California.
I've heard the upper weights talk about wrestling with Cael and Varner in the room. Never Cunningham.
ISU?? Are you kidding me?
Cael wrestles Cassar virtually every day. From unranked walk on recruit to national champion - case closed!
He would just replace him with bo nickals, David taylor, etc etc.

Then you haven't been paying attention:

Quotes from Casey about wrestling Quentin
Ben Provisor talks about Casey still beating everyone up.
And there is at least one coaches show with Bo where he talk about wrestling Casey. I'm trying to find it.
Casey doesn't spend as much time with the 197 and 285 as much as he used to, simply because Varner is there, but 157 - 197, they all give Casey a ton of credit.
Cael really does have a unique situation. In a podcast his brother mentioned that he wrestles "everyday" - and we all heard the quotes from Cassar about his one-on-ones with Cael. He doesn't ever really RUN practice in the traditional sense. That's Cody and Casey. But Casey
