Why All of a sudden is this a big deal?

From the dawn of time every wrestler pulls weight. It's part of the sport. 1-10lbs, is pulling. Who cares. You have to pick your battles. If a football player comes in at 220 and continues to loose weight in the wrestling room, is he pulling or just working hard?

Coaches build the best team they can for the season. Which means if you have 3 quality kids at one weight, then 1 goes up, 1 goes down, and the other remains at the weight.


I say leave it up to Kansas and ALL the coaches to figure it out. Not a parent/fan of the sport.

Mat side weigh ins will only hurt our sport and the team. Remember it's HS, not college. These are kids.
