I disagree with you in the respect that we all as coaches are going to have to make some changes. As long as a coach is not requiring his wrestlers to cut weight, then there really is no problem. I read the article which you speak of and it seems as the coach was clearly in the wrong with what he asked his wrestler to do. I would like to hear his side of the story, but I can assure you that I would never ask my kids to do what he appearantly asked his wrestler to do. I have taken a policy that if my wrestlers wish to cut weight, they need to do it right, and on their own time. My job is to make them better wrestlers. Times and the sport have changed.
