If you are wrong, tournaments suffer and clubs get smaller or even die out. Remember Oklahoma averages 2 tournaments a week, Kansas averages 6. Kansas wrestling will suffer if you are wrong, at worst it will stay the same if I am wrong. [/quote]

Beeson, I agree with most of what you are saying-I dont participate with our team in the series, for various reasons. But, go to the link
(http://okseries.com/cgi/calendar.cgi) there are very few weekends in Oklahoma with only two tournaments. The series tournaments are, of course the toughest for the most part, but not the only place to find tough matches. I think even if the series disbanded, those tourneys would still draw the competition because of facilities, history, etc more so than the sweatshirt they get at the end.

Does Kansas need to copy what we do in OK? NO! But, I can see the point of getting out of your comfort zone 2 or three times a year, whether it be with Tulsa Nats, Kickoff, whatever.
