I'm a fellow hold out

Not that I've been sold on him, but have been in a wait and see mode. We see the results, but Robie sees the process that's going on in the room. I thought some lower level talent was developed really well in Sam Fisher, Cody Howard, Andy Smith. He didn't quite AA, but Traxler had his best year ever after transferring here. But Haught hasn't been able to get elite guys to the next level. Hunter Catka was probably a bit overrated as a prospect and is just one wrestler, but Sasso and Mullen are a trend. Now there's no way Haught gets fired mid season, and maybe those two go on a run and kill it at the national tournament and we change our tune. I think at a minimum though, would like to get another big guy in there as an RTC athlete. Get another feel and another set of eyes in the room.

Probably... but much of the problem appears to be conditioning

Disagree. This is about Sasso and his risky strategy of scrambling.

All true... but 174, 184, 197, and HW all appear to be weaker and more out
