Can't speak to the licensing question. I know the CRTC has some cool gear, and you can get Cyclone Wrestling sweatshirts and clothing from Cy's Locker Room.
As far as Pollard and investing in wrestling goes, he has stepped up in recent years. Dresser and Co are some of the highest paid coaches in the nation and there have been some improvements to the wrestling room. I think it will take getting a brand new wrestling facility to really take another step as a program to be at the same level as an Oklahoma State/tOSU/Cornell. There was a new wrestling facility in the initial rendering of the re-design for the space between Hilton and Jack Trice, but with COVID that obviously pushes that plan out a bit. With where the AD is with budgets, I think Pollard is doing what he can. Just sucks that his hands were tied with conference re-alignment in the early 2010s that lost us Cael and then he went cheap on the next hire.
Thanks for the insight on Pollard and how he got Dresser, glad wrestling was included in the plans, gotta just get back on schedule with attendees etc.
Ill have to keep asking around for why we don’t license apparel, would think that’s some really low hanging fruit to help revenues and consumer awareness
