i guess you are correct. i dont understand. wrestling has a shelf life on average of 10 years or less after high school. academics and everything else that you commented on can also be done at a D1 college. you dont get your youth back, fun shmun, who cares. so many kids would give anything to be in his his shoes. still think its a waste of talent.
Before last april i would have agreed with you about whether to go d1 or d2 if given the choice with talent like lapaglias, now i realize there is more to life than wrestling and agree with lancer lou, sports should be for fun first, second and third, win or lose.
