After coaching high school wrestling for 18 years I would like to summarize the difference (in my opinion) between high school wrestling and football coaches (in general). High school football coaches want to "own" kids. High school wrestling coaches want to "borrow" kids. The high school football coaches who don't encourage their players to wrestle are just hurting themselves. Funny, it seems that all they guys on the field that are "making plays" are the wrestlers. I will take a 185 lb. wrestler on the field against a 230 lber. who does not wrestler EVERY TIME. By the way, I can't wait to hear from my old friend Randy, who has coached both sports for many years on this topic. Sincerely, Eldon Edwards
