The Polls Close And The Results Are In


While there is no overwhelming consensus as to what most people think about SD’s recent acquisitions, there is a majority (38%) that feel that those kids going to SD is nothing more than a byproduct of a successful program, that coach is not guilty of recruiting, and that SD is merely the beneficiary of the coaches dedication and intensive work ethic.


A good number of you (29%) are of the belief that the SD is guilty of blatant recruiting, that the coach is aware of it and doesn’t care, and that he is arrogant to the point where he believes that he is so well connected that there is nothing anyone can do about it so tough $hit for you whiners.


There are also those of you that feel (21%) that in fact some of those kids were likely recruited into attending SD, but those wrestlers and their families bothered to do things properly and by the books so those kids are there legitimately and that is all there is to it.


A small number of you (7%) thought the coach bore some responsibility, and that if a wrestler that belongs at another school approaches him about transferring to his school, that the honorable thing to do would be to steer him back to his home school.


And of course, 3 of you comedians or legally blind followers of my Blog are of the belief that there is no recruiting going on at all, that everyone is exactly where they belong and wrestling has nothing to do with any of it.

If you had to coach another program other than yours which one would you like to coach. If you are not a coach which program would you like to take over and coach. (In Dade County)

don't like these teams from up north on the poll.

Anonymous,

What is wrong with having some of those teams from up north? Those are some outstanding programs that many coaches around the state would likely enjoy coaching a great deal.

This is basically a Dade only site, but it's not by design, I would love to have Orlando news and Tampa news and more from around the state, unfortunately I live here and this is my area of expertise so obviously the content is Miami intensive.

I have made several offers to others around the state to take up a post for their area and be the eyes and ears for the Spiders Lair where it concerns their region of the state, but as of yet no one has stepped up to handle that invitation. I have offered full administrative privilege and of course complete anonymity, but still I wait for a representative.

Anyway, I don't think having a few out of the area names is out of line at all, in fact there are a couple of other teams I should have put on that Poll.
