As a boss I had once said, after I asked him about his presentation after a meeting with a prospective client where he described all sorts of stuff that our firm didn't actually offer - "Don't confuse marketing with implementation." That's the JC schtick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1032004 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 one thing that was interesting from this is that he did say Cael either cut or kicked a bunch of guys off the team when he first got there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDole Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 The "secret" isn't hard to figure out if you have half a brain. Their technique is not exponentially better than the others. Their conditioning is not exponentially better than the others. The difference is how they approach the sport and the mindset they have developed from the top(coaches) down(athletes). Someone compared Cael talking about wrestling to Spencer Lee on Twitter. Cael was relaxed saying that wrestling is a game and he likes to play games. Spencer basically said winning and losing is like life or death. To the Penn State wrestlers winning or losing doesn't define them and that is the biggest difference. Why are they able to reverse so many losses from Big Tens? It's mainly because of the mindset and how they view the sport. The thing is Tom and Terry could never implement this type of mindset, that's not how they are wired. Add in many other coaches that are of the Iowa style and old school mentality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well sure ... but if you want a guy to run thru a brick wall do you want a guy who likes playing games or a guy who views it as life or death? If only the NCAA gave out brick wall trophies.

I am not sure Carter Starocci fits into your narrative of the typical Penn State wrestler Most, if not all, DI coaches know what goes on in the room, just are too hard headed to implement changes as they claim Penn State only does it due to the recruits they get. As I stated the Brands brothers could never implement that type of demeanor and mindset in their room. Listen to the top coaches and wrestlers talk, the Penn State guys talk about the sport in a different manner. Their mindset is the biggest difference when you compare them to others.

Another point I have heard him make on two occasions is sometimes the best thing to do is just get out of their way and let them succeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
