You are correct, the changes are not coming along fast enough. The glaciers melt faster than any changes I have seen happen in the realm of the KSHSAA. What changes were approved during last Friday's meeting? I still believe the board is just a puppet operated by the great Maestro Musselman and his henchman Bowden. Even the insiders will tell you so.
What are the educational and health concerns you have when it comes to permiting coaches to teach athletes outside of the season? Are the boys from Kansas not tough enough and/or smart enough to wrestle as many matches as wrestlers from Texas? No one is demanding that coaches do so but if a coach would like to then they should be able to. Freedom to chose is all we are talking about here! KSHSAA is too controlling and the regulations are bordering on asinine. I know exactly what I am wishing for and I am willing to pay to get it. I want a level playing field with other states and I am not alone. I wish for freedom because that is what the country was founded for. I want representation for my tax dollars. I don't want guys like you making decisions on how my money is spent. I want wrestling advocates to make decisions for wrestling not basketball and football people.
I am aware of the finger pointing theory. I DO NOT receive my compensation directly from an entity which is totally tax supported like yours. EVERYONE receives some benefit or compensation from tax dollars if you want to dig deep enough. You have no fiscal accountability in other words your job only requires you to spend money you do not have to make any and you probably don't even care where it comes from as long as you get your share.
I am aware and hoping that this does lead to a legal dispute like the swimming issue did. It might be the only way to get something productive accomplished before my son kids get to high school.
