He could, but do u think HWC could match his current salary?Could Terry do what Kenny Monday is doing at UNC and be head coach of HWC? That would make room for Metcalf!
No clue. But I would like to think so.He could, but do u think HWC could match his current salary?
I don't know the finances of the HWC but it is highly doubtful. Terry made $153,000 last year. I don't believe there is a wrestling club in the country that could pay someone that salary. That is before you factor in benefits, which would likely push the cost closer to $175,000.He could, but do u think HWC could match his current salary?
Good article, maybe he's done, maybe not. This HS job seems like something to get the lights on until his wife is done with grad school. Then I imagine it to a college program that will take him on staff. Unfortunately, I don't see that as Iowa, since the current staff doesn't appear to be moving on to something else anytime soon.
I bet he will still be working out in the Iowa room.A normal high school assistant wrestling coach gets paid between $2,000 and $4,000 (unless he is getting money from outside the school system). You would think the HWC could match that to keep him in the Iowa room.
Sounds like his passion for hunting taking over his passion for wrestling.
You got that right! For a hs kid, it's like striking gold to have the opportunity train under Metcalf. Hey Brent, I'm pretty sure I could get you the same type of gig at my kids school here in PA..Some lucky kids at Prairie!
Awesome for those Prairie Hawks. I wonder how many kids are gonna open enroll over there.
I think there is about a .0000001 % or less chance of that happening.I could see him staying there and eventually taking over as head coach...but only if the hunting company can make him a decent living.
Coach Thompson is extremely young and successful. Left a great program in Alburnette to take the job with Prairie. Doubt he has plans to leave any time soon.I think there is about a .0000001 % or less chance of that happening.
Point taken, but this is Brent Metcalf. I don't doubt that he'll have a great time Coaching at Prairie or any other High School he wants to show up at. Obviously he isn't doing it for the money. He's essentially killing time until Mama is done with school and see what else his life is going to bring.Coach Thompson is extremely young and successful.

I know that Prairie has a great wrestling tradition (Davis, Zalesky, Zalesky, Rob Kramer), but I wonder what made Metcalf decide to go there.

I have a feeling Dennis might have had something to do with it. He was coaching high school kids in Cali and probably told Metcalf how rewarding it is. The opportunity presented itself and Brent jumped on it. Probably will be a one year thing til his wife graduates. After that who knows.I know that Prairie has a great wrestling tradition (Davis, Zalesky, Zalesky, Rob Kramer), but I wonder what made Metcalf decide to go there.
Where do I start.. Just because you may think he is the Odds-on "Fan" favorite to take over coaching the University of Iowa means he is actually not even on the list to take over at Iowa... remember he has ZERO coaching experience to date No, Dennis did not tell Metcalf how rewarding coaching H.S. kids is and that is why he decided to volunteer at Prairie. Thank you Sandor45 for reading the article and bringing some serious insight to the conversation. If anyone wants to donate 175k large to the HWC they should and I'm sure they would appreciate it! Then see if Tom makes Terry the Club coach and "Slides" Brent into a coaching role.. that would answer lots of these questions.
Open enrollment is not good. Too much like college recruiting (even if the kid was not recruited by the high school).Awesome for those Prairie Hawks. I wonder how many kids are gonna open enroll over there.
I like Brent and think it's great he's doing this but does anyone know if he's even any good at coaching? There are a lot of great wrestlers who make terrible coaches. What makes everyone so sure he will walk in there and be a great coach?
