Folks the folkstyle season is too long. I believe the state is doing the right thing and starting to focus more on the Freestyle and Greco fronts...but yet a lot to be done.

I was down at the NCAAs last year to watch my alma mater U of Minnesota finish 2nd ugh...but not after coaching all day, speeding to get back to OKC. Not ideal but I saw a lot of Maize, Winfield, and Young Gun families walking in right behind me.

If we shaved 3-4 weeks off of the Folkstyle season and incorporated 2-3 more quality freestyle and greco tournaments I believe we the greater community would benefit. This is process and takes time...instant results as we all know doesn't happen overnight in this sport. So a positive first step that in 3-4 fours year (with more to be done if this is truly phase one) we will be back in the Top 10 like we should. But a more balanced approach in all styles is what we need to better showcase the talent of Kansas wrestling on regional and national level.
