Why is this on an Iowa board? . . . we'll he's been a good coach for a long time. I'm from Michigan and CMU has kind of been my 2nd favorite team for a while.
Also, it's been rumored that Casey Cunningham would only leave PSU to return to his alma-mater. Whether that's true remains to be be seen. I figure he'd be a shoe-in for the job if he wanted it, but is that something that would actually happen?
I've heard that a lot of the magic at PSU is due to Casey. Do I know that? Nope. I'm just an unconnected jerk on a message board. lol. I just selfishly want him to be the coach in Mt. Pleasant (not the one in Iowa, lol) as it's somewhat local and he's one of the first college wrestlers I ever rooted for.
Would removing him from PSU remove 'some' of the magic there? Dunno, I'm just spitballing and speculating. Not that I want Iowa to be better due to another team falling, but that's kind of how these cycles happen. Minnesota was the juggernaut for the early 2000s. Then it was OSU, then a battle with a few teams while tOSU rose, then of course PSU, and 2 years where Iowa climbed to the top.
It's only a few weeks until the coaching carousel kicks off. Let's hold on for the ride.
