If you don't intended to take anything away from the athletes that are working so hard then why do you make the following statement?

To me that statement is an insult to every Kansas State champ, placer, or wrestler who has ever competed for the "joke" (your words not mine) of becoming a state champion. What you said definitely takes something away from their accomplishments.

I think almost everyone associated with Kansas wrestling feels very fortunate that you are NOT in charge (and this has nothing to do with wanting it to be easier- but instead is an indication of our concern with the development of the entire student-athlete, not just national caliber wrestlers, which we do a pretty good job of anyway).
