More endearingly than any other sport, wrestling teaches self control and pride.

But we've got to work. We can't just live on reputations at all - by any means.

If you want to train and work hard 3 months out of the year, well, then, UNI is a great place to go. If you want to bust your tail 6 months out of the year, you should be very happy at ISU. But if you want to train and develop into a champion 12 months out of the year, then Iowa is the place for you.

Talent is everywhere, winning attitude is not.

There's nothing like success.

I’m a big believer in starting with high standards and raising them. We make progress only when we push ourselves to the highest level. If we don’t progress, we backslide into bad habits, laziness and poor attitude.

If you're going to stay in the Olympics, you've got to be entertaining and get sponsorship.
