That would make more sense. I just assumed the red chairs on the east side were for the teams. I love putting the students on top of the opposing coaches and team. -
Cyclone Wrestling Twitter
Anyone else wonder about the setup showing opposing coaches located across the mat from the team and right next to the students section? If so The students will be yelling in the coaches ears and the coaches will have to walk around the mat to talk to their wrestlers. I wonder if that's a mistake. -

Brent Metcalf Head Coach?

Brent Metcalf Head Coach?
Here are a few quality candidates with ISU ties that I've thought of 1. Perry (many think highly of him - stellar wrestling career, family business) 2. Yonger (maybe he's burnt out of wrestling, Cuban ties, speaks Spanish, could be great upper weight coach) 3. Carr (I want him to win world... -

New Story: The real story of Yonger Bastida was never about one match
Great article! Thanks for writing it. Also thanks to Yonger and Coach Fernando for making Cyclone Nation proud. I hope to reading another similar piece next year on AE. Maybe he can win the big one for Yonger.
