I’m sure “New Coach” isn’t recruiting either and these “transfers” come on their own volition as well.
I think
its interesting that he call's it Sunnyside Wrestling Academy when he doesn't coach the kids in said academy but takes credit for them, and has them training at a gym in town rather than the room at SS.

That's laughable... Your telling me the New Coaches reputation is so grand and has such a wide reach that it reaches ALL THE WAY TO FREAKING CUBA! Give me a break! I'm done going back and forth with you! This is hilarious!
This will be my last post!

I have absolutely no dog in this fight. Just wanted to clear up that Nate did go to Sunnyside as a freshmen, because he was a freshman when I was a senior and I remember watching him wrestle. Just wanted to clarify that. That's all.

Gallick is only 2 years younger than us, and definitely went to Catalina Foothills as a freshman.

Ok. If that's the case, I stand corrected. I must have seen him as a sophomore then and thought he was a freshman. Was he a runner up as a sophomore then?
JMO... Both are great coaches... Coach with all the recruits is working his butt off year round, and his program's work speaks for itself. Being someone who transferred schools, I don't judge these coaches who sacrifice their time and grind to build up programs. They sacrifice just like the coaches who build up programs from their neighborhood. If kids getting recruited hurts coaches feelings; do something about it.... Work your A** off and make your program better. I can guarantee you all that if coaches worked their A** off and put in the effort to grow their program the kids would want to stay, and parents would give a second thought before going through all the BS to transfer their kid. Look at what Santa Cruz is doing... If they can do it anyone can do it. Look at Chavez, Look at Thunderbird with Linsacum, Safford, when Edwards was churning out college AA's, Camp Verde, Mingus with Wokasch.Who's the better Coach...
The Coach that wins with a team of "Recruited" Transfers (I use parenthesis with recruited because I know how we all try and keep that on the hush and attempt to justify) OR the coach that uses neighborhood kids and developed them from the ground up and wins?
I ask because I was having a debate with one of my coworkers regarding a Old Coach at a certain school and how he won, versus a new coach now at the same school who is also winning. They think the new coach is better because he is winning with transferred in and possibly dare I say "recruited" talent and I argue that the old coach is better because of his sustained success with developed neighborhood talent.
Just wanted to pose the question to the masses and see their opinions. Not trying to rile anything up
At the end of the day, its all about the kids. As a coach its my job to get my kids ready, its my job to put them in the best place to succeed. Its their job as students to get good grades so we can get them recruited. I think the focus needs to be on getting our kids (AZ) better. Not worrying about the next coach and what they are doing...
