    I believe that Brownsburg will not be hosting it this year if the event is planned to go on as far as I know. I will reach out to my boss and confirm and get back before I make any concrete statements.

    My guess is Folkstyle and the NCAA's are not what he is setting his sights on. He wants to be an Olympic Champion and get an education. An NCAA championship would just be an added bonus if he could squeeze it in. Keep up the good work Micic.

    Hey man, it's your guy's funeral. After "WaiverGate" its your Public Image that is a bit tattered. To call this a little tournament is crazy considering its the 2nd largest off season instate tournament we have behind Folkstyle state. [table] Tournament Cadet/Jr. Numbers Folkstyle State 875 IHPO 586 Freestyle Regionals 431 Freestyle State 406 Grecco Regionals 400 Grecco 158 [/table] I feel I have a ton of Suggestions for the ISWA. I figure Ill jot them all down on here and let the organization decide what to do with it. You can even take them and have full credit for it! Either way doesn't effect me much. ISWA stuff is what our elite kids did but you have scared them off (luckily there are 100 backups so no need for my guys to get bothered and asked to join come Fargo/Duals time)so we will maintain our current off season plans which have yielded great results. And I want to state for the record I have no ill will towards any ISWA members. Jason Miller is one of my good friends, Tom Dolly was like a second father to me. The ISWA was great for me 10 years ago. I just feel Times have changed and they need to adapt to a new way of thinking.
  14. Fabio Jr.
    and that attitude is going to be the demise of the ISWA....unwilling to change or adjust and push away the better wrestlers who see the greener pastures from other state associations.

    Don't we have reps for each region that should listen to their constituents and motion in their behalf? This argument of "show up and pitch it yourself" is a real cop out. I have kids going to a tournament that day and I have to either not be able to attend or leave the kids to coach themselves. This is a perfect example of why people are cutting ties with the ISWA. I have heard from two PROMINENT wrestlers that they are no longer doing anything with the ISWA due to how it is ran. The more you drive people away the more our national teams will suffer its that simple.

    Coaches don't need to take this, they already know everything.

    I want to give a shout out to b lee! It's been a pleasure to help you get to the level you have I honestly am nothing for us but it has been a blast watching you get to the level of serious contender in the national scene keep up the work buddy

    Juniors struggling with only one win...
  20. Fabio Jr.
    But how cool would it be if all the champions entered a 16 man tournament on Raw and Smack Down and the winner is the number one contender for the True Intercontinental Title.
  21. Fabio Jr.
    That might be one of the worst ideas.....you want to talk about confusing fans all we need to do is add the Degree™ Hot Zone
  22. Fabio Jr.
    I agree with you. Thats why I said USAW needs to communicate with the NFHS and NCAA. Get those and everything changes. Now if you want to increase Freestyle in state you need a longer season. Host folkstyle state the week after individual state and that puts it the weekend of 2/28 - 3/1 then move freestyle state the week before central regionals (5/9-5/10) that gives you 9 weeks of freestyle. before state and central regionals. That will offer folkstyle tournaments for youth. Schoolboy, Cadets and Juniors can do Folkstyle State, and then it goes right to freestyle. Just a simple suggestion if someone else wants to take it to one of the many meetings. Tom maybe I shouldn't use the term 'National Tournament' because you're right there are countless small tournaments that are called nationals tournaments even in our state that are far from it. Freestyle needs more high profile tournaments. (Have a youth division at the Dave Schultz and other large events in the US) have those compete with the Flos and Super 32s. Again Im just a guy spiting out ideas but one thing is clear something needs to change cause the state of International styles at least in our state borders is declining quickly.

    Ty Mills also ranked 6th at 106

    That is not the case. The issue is freestyle is not a requirement like it was before all the national Folkstyle tournaments came to be. After the regular season you have DOZENS of quality Folkstyle tournaments. The number of freestyle offerings at that level are slim. Kids end up not training in it enough there fore end up preferring Folkstyle to freestyle. Then when it comes to getting 2 qualifiers in to go freestyle state or to go to 2 Folkstyle events you will get more going to the Folkstyle. I showed Freestyle I was at two qualifers with wrestlers and at Freestyle state. I believe the way the rules are are great (I could still do with out the push out though) The big flaw is that the time of and length of the freestyle season. Think of it like this should a high school teams and RTC's be running freestyle practices now? roughly 147 of the total population (not including duplicates) are set to compete at duals and or Fargo. It makes more sense as a High School Wrestling coach to prepare the majority of your team for Next Season at this point. Since tournaments like Jazztown, Disney, IHPO, and Super 32 are quickly approaching folkstyle would be back on the table. It's simple if USA Wrestling wants to increase the participation base of the international styles it needs to be talking to NFHS and NCAA to move toward a change. They also need to make Freestyle/Greco the Center of the Youth Season instead of a 6 week thing after Folkstyle (Maybe more of a ISWA thing?) I would also say we need more National tournaments that are Freestyle going out and possibly competing with the Super 32 and Flo-Nationals of the world. There just are not enough of those tournaments and the ones out there are not nearly as well promoted.

    If thats your goal go that route.....a lot of kids will wrestle in High School and thats it of the small precentage that will go to college an even smaller precentage will continue to wrestle after that.
