Someone that could be the Stanford coach needs to be able to bring the guys that aren't top tier recruits to a level that qualifies them for the NCAAs. You aren't going to be bringing in recruiting classes at Stanford like you would at a Big 1(1)0 or Big 12 school. I really don't think Mena is the type that could do that.
There are some great assistants out there that have done more than him and would be a better fit at Stanford.

Tell me about it, this morning, I woke up and I shit a squirrel, but what I can't get is the damn thing is still alive. So now, I've got a shit covered squirrel running around my office and I don't know what to name it.

Give me your short list. Who should Stanford be looking at?

I really don't have a clue who would be interested in the job there. Its not the most appealing place with four scholarships and extremely high academic standards. It will take someone that has a track record of producing great wrestlers along with great GPA's.

So you don't think Mena is a good up and coming coach?
I'm not saying I think he is the right guy. He might be better starting at a small college.
If Bowlsby is looking at an Iowa guy the list would be fairly short. I think Mena may be considered. (I'm not saying he will get the job). Just get considered. He has been an assistant coach for 8 years.

Good...no, I don't think he's a good coach. As I said, look at what he has done with the guys at 133 and 141 recently. He hasn't taken those second tier kids to the NCAAs, which if he was a good coach he would do that.
I don't think Mena would take a small school job. He seems like the type that would think coaching at a small school(DII or DIII) was an insult.
If Bowlsby is looking for an Iowa guy, the list is pretty short, but he hasn't said he is looking for an Iowa guy. I have confidence that he will bring in a good coach whether he is from Iowa or not.
