The guys know the importance of this weekend. I talked to them a little bit this morning. We're 0-2 in the Big Ten Conference and that's not what we want. We gotta start things off on the right foot tomorrow night.

I couldn't be more proud of him. Ever since he began working with team since he was 10 years old, I've seen him progress so much. There is nobody more deserving to be an All-American than him...I am so happy for him.

I'm proud of my guys. They wrestled with a lot of heart. They battled through a lot of things.

Anytime you've beaten a guy before, you're certainly capable of doing it again. The only risk is to overlook him. That can change the outcome of a match. We have to not look past a match because we've beaten someone before.

Oh, man, what a tournament to be a spectator at with all the great matches. It's been so exciting with all the big upsets. (Today) won't be a day to be in the consolations with all of those guys coming back through.

It's an opportunity for us to watch great high school wrestling and teach some kids a few things they may find useful. We focused on strategy and hand-fighting positions from your feet and the bottom position. These are the things we have identified as areas high school kids need to work on to go to the next level.

It's one of those things where there's not a whole lot you can say. You feel like your world's crumbling down. He's going through a lot of emotions right now. It's difficult.

It's not like he's not at the level he needs to be to compete, he's just relaxing in some situations. You like the fact that he's confident and feels he can beat anyone in any position. But when he gets in trouble, though, he needs to learn to fight to get out of the situation he's in.

This performance this weekend, even though we had a win over Iowa, we aren't going to tolerate. We have to use this as a wake-up call. I'd rather have it here than at the NCAA tournament. It's going to be a long ride back home.

This is exactly why we went to Reno (in December for the Reno Tournament of Champions). There are some familiar names and teams. I think that's good.
