wrestlingnerd 2,996 Report post Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) Really good interview, thanks for sharing. I loved learning about how Lee's parents met. Might be the best story that led to marriage I've heard. This is notable: "The best compliment that I can give to the Iowa Coaching staff is that through the entire recruiting process and it was an intense process; they were the only staff that never, not one time, said anything derogatory or negative about another program or coach." Love them or hate them, the Brands have character. Edited October 3, 2019 by wrestlingnerd 2 scribe and Alwayswrestling reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fletcher 1,094 Report post Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) Great article ... but it sounds like too much of a coincidence that both kids chose Iowa schools while they supposedly didn't know their dad had a job offer from Coe (where his daughter presumably gets free tuition). But as parents, it's our duty to embellish the family history from time to time, so I approve. Edited October 3, 2019 by Fletcher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sublime607 139 Report post Posted October 4, 2019 What I took away from that article is that if Spencer's mom wants the big piece of chicken at the dinner table nobody is going to fighter for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well even based on the story part of the reason the sister chose Coe was to be closer to Spencer once he chose Iowa, so I think that’s believable.

UsedToBe103 18 Report post Posted October 6, 2019 "So, he’s been tapped out twice by his mother in public with both an armbar and a choke." I lol'd. Great interview. It's always nice to see the human/personal side of someone's story. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTimeFan 1,141 Report post Posted October 9, 2019 Spencer Lee’s family seems completely sane. Compare to another Pennsylvania great. Thanks for sharing, OP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
