Kansas is doing ok. It is hard to compare Kansas to Penn, Ohio, New Jersey, and the like. They have tens of thousands more wrestlers in those states than we have here. Sheer numbers alone make the probability of them running those kinds of placers compared to ours, understandable. It is pretty difficult for a Kansas kid to go to some of these powerhouse schools when most of the time they have to nearly walk on (see Brester of Nebraska). In that way it hurts not to have a DI school here in the state. As far as development of quality wrestlers I see no reason why that would be a factor with OU, OSU, MU, and Neb so close and providing so much in the way of resources.
