Richard -- sorry to trouble you again, but there is something I would like to add.

I was, in fact, quite proud of my accomplishments at both Immaculata and Maur Hill. In both cases I took over programs that were in abyssmal shape and managed to raise numbers and a bit of pride in the program. With no middle school or kids programs to draw from, many of the kids I had never seen a wrestling match until the first one they were in as freshmen. And quite a few of those kids went on to have pretty good careers, considering.

And I am also quite proud of the sharing agreement we had at Imac for two years with KSSB, giving several visually challenged kids (including three-time state qualifer Ronnie Hawthorne) an opportunity they may not have had otherwise.

We were on the verge of building something very special at Imac when I made the biggest mistake of my professional life by leaving at going to Maur Hill. Would love to have that one over again, but it worked out fine as I was able to return home and begin to rebuild here.

While I realize that when it comes to judging professionalism and ability you are the Lord High Executioner of Circle and all tremble in your presense, but your opinion of me is pretty meaningless. I find it extremely sad that rather than argue a point logically, you attack my abilities. Not sad for me, but for you.

I made a great many friends in the Kansas wrestling community and had many great times while I was there. Nothing, not even your pettiness, can change that. If, in your mind, the only the thing a coach can be judged on is medals from Wichita or Hays, then you're right, I was a failure in Kansas. But then again, I have two medalists in Iowa already!

But Richard, I am proud of what we did at Imac and KSSB, and not even you can change that. You can judge that anyway you'd like Richard, but I really don't care about you gibberish, either.
