JAD 40 Report post Posted February 23 Strobel was a class act. How about Mike Caruso - 3 time NCAA champ when freshmen couldn't wrestle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I met him as a kid because he sold insurance to my dad. Seemed like a nice guy. I have a wrestling "card" of him somewhere. Like a baseball card that shows his stats.

Cowboy08 29 Report post Posted February 23 For some reason people never mention Alex Dieringer who was basically unstoppable for 3 years to go along with 3 NCAA titles going 97-1 those three years and a career record of 133-4 with a Hodge Trophy. 6 snapspinscore, Alwayswrestling, Chucktown_Luke and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cowboy08 29 Report post Posted February 23 Also one ever talks about Jake Rosholt (1,3,1,1) who had a pretty damn good career. He wasn't necessarily as dominant as some guys listed but he always found a way to win Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bnwtwg 1,100 Report post Posted February 24 Hard to be the GOAT when the GOAT is currently wrestling. Hard to be the GOAT when #2 Snyder was a 3x champ at NCAAs and worlds simultaneously. Mocco was never even the clear-cut best during his time. Tommy Rowland and Cole Konrad have great counterpoints to that argument. 2 Mphillips and jchapman reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He wasn't necessarily as dominant as some guys listed but he always found a way to win I believe Rosholt never came in with #1 seed, showing that he never had dominant seasons, despite being great when it matters, which is widely acknowledged.
