Tom Brands...Olympic Gold Medalist is Iowa's pick to replace Jim Zaleski.

How about a new rivalry....
Sanderson vs Brands.....I believe Iowa wrestling is about to retake the thrown in the near future!!

I really think Coach Brands will take this program back to where it belongs. I will always pull for my Pokes, but I have a ton of respect for Iowa. Brands reminds me of a cloned Gable.

The man is even intense at a press conference. I would kill to sit in on a week of practice.

I got to watch Brands in action for the first couple of years that Joe wrestled at Iowa. The night Joe pinned Luke Becker from MN, Brands was the acting Head Coach and he had Joe more fired up than I've ever seen him. I would say Brands is even more intense than Gable.
