Swayz,
He did do a great job at MSU-N. Especially when you consider the school is in Havre, MT. Very cold and isolated....I'm from MT originally.
Evidentally he is leaving so he can spend more time with his family. I got a chance to work with him a little when I was helping a friend of mine coach in Bozeman, MT. Ray had just taken over the program. There is not a lot of wrestling schools in the Northwest so he can get a lot of recruits from up in that area.
Hope his predecessor has the same success.
