Nice article and interview, Jim, I enjoyed it .... but why not post it on our wrestling board ?
Is there a wrestling board as mentioned in one of the posts? I don't see it listed?
Wow. If there was evidence which points to the need for Pitt to recruit the local talent, it's this:
“They are the No. 1 club in the country," Knopsnyder said. “If you can tap into that, which Pitt hasn’t been able to do in the past, if you can start landing those Young Guns guys, you have a chance to improve your program.”
So how good is the Young Guns program?
“I think if you just put Young Guns kids that were on college teams last year in the NCAA Tournament, they would have finished third in the country,” said Knopsnyder.
