Darian Cruz wants to change wrestling overtime to one rule: tied score, one takedown wins, no time limit. He says the 36-minute Suriano vs. Daton Fix match was the most riveting thing he had ever seen. #Athletor#Wrestling
Darian Cruz on the best wrestling shoe of all time: ASICS ExCo, no question. He had to wear Adidas at Lehigh but once he graduated, he found his go-to. #Athletor#Wrestling
Penn wrestlers are not just competing on the mat. Darian Cruz says these guys are dominating the classroom and locking down internships too. More on your plate means more to manage, and they are handling it. #Athletor#CollegeWrestling
JB thought he wrestled four Russians. One was from Poland, one from Azerbaijan, one from Uzbekistan, then a Russian in the finals. All from the same club. Dagestan and Ossetia are the size of West Virginia. #wrestling#athletorpodcast
Stanford head coach Chris Ayres on the magic wand question: ditch the headgear. He also gave credit to the first NCAA-sponsored Women's Nationals as a huge step for the sport. #wrestling#collegwrestling
Chris Ayres on the grind of building a program: when you don't get what you need, you figure out another way. That's the wrestling mentality. #Wrestling#Athletor

Mike Macchiavello on processing a tough loss: feel it, don't let it break you, and get back to work. Caring that much is what moves you forward. #wrestling#athletorpodcast
Mike Macchiavello's one change to wrestling: add the folkstyle push out rule. Take the ambiguity out of stall calls and get guys familiar with the freestyle rules they'll eventually compete under. #wrestling#athletorpodcast
Mike Macchiavello's Mount Rushmore of wrestling: John Smith, JB, Cael Sanderson, and Bruce Baumgartner. Thirteen medals. Still leading the sport today as President of USA Wrestling. Hard to argue with that list. #wrestling#wrestlingpodcast
One bad shot. Then doubt. Then you are reacting emotionally to things that would not normally matter. Mike Macchiavello on how the mental spiral starts in wrestling and why it hits so hard. #wrestling#athletorpodcast#mentalgame

The "it didn't feel right" excuse doesn't fly at the college level. Gabe Arnold on why reps and being willing to fail are the only way to develop feel as a wrestler. #Athletor#CollegeWrestling#Wrestling
Gabe Arnold on the greatest wrestling shoe of all time: Combat Speed Teals. Undefeated. He even had to give Nike a disclaimer just in case. #Athletor#Wrestling
Gabe Arnold was 9 pounds over after Soldier Salute, wrestled Moss in the night session on fumes, and walked out of the tunnel for finals feeling completely drained. The standard is changing: strong at 74 flat. #Athletor#Wrestling#BigTen
Gabe Arnold (Iowa) on competing: win or lose, he gives everything on that mat. And when he loses, he takes it hard every time. That fire does not go away. #Athletor#Wrestling#Hawkeyes
