Saw this and wanted to share how Downey credits the attitude behind his recent success to his brief experience in IC.
"I learned there’s a whole lifestyle that goes into it,” he said. “The Iowa Hawkeyes, that was my first time being around a group of guys that dedicated to the sport. I was like, ‘Geez, these guys, their whole lifestyle goes into it. Every decision they make is based upon what’s getting them better at wrestling.’ That made it easy for me to lock down my nutrition, lock down my training because I saw first hand that there’s other guys out there living this lifestyle day in and day out.”
Of course it speaks very well to the character and intensity of the Iowa program.

Apologies, in advance, if this was already discussed in another thread.
