To Mr Salyer,

I do in fact try to inherit some knowledge from my elders but only to the extent that it will benefit me in either my wrestling or my coaching. I listen and love to hear things from coaches that have productive things to say like Doug Moore of Concordia, and Curtis Simmons of Emporia and a number of other. On the other hand there are plenty of coaching around the state that I don't care for becuase of the way they handle their team. It promotes bad sportsmanship and that is the #1 bad thing for me. Now as for particualar moves not changing. No the single and double leg have not changed and other such moves. But how long has the front headlock that Abilene uses been around or really used as well as they do it? Or another move such as the spladle that Nate Smith destroyed countless amounts of people with? But thats not really the point. What I meant by changes in wrestling is the rules. there are plenty of new rules that are designed to keep the sport fast-paced and exciting but im not going into that. As for wrestlers of the past beating wrestlers of today. Well I don't want to speculate either but on the whole I think that wrestlers of today would be better than wrestlers of old. Granted there are exceptions. I mean who in the past could have beaten a Bo Maynes, Zach Robertson, Doug Hoover, Jacob Klein, Jeff Boyle, Cale Sanderson!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the list goes on. There is a following and a sense of dedication to the sport today that im sure didn't exist in that time. Finnaly to Chewbacca, im am very gratefull that you have the class to admit the truth. It just proves that despite a few fns ruining it for an entire team there are still decent ones sitting up there. But I think this post has reached its end, and hopefully this issue can just die out and maybe someone has learned a lesson.
