His technique and spirit hit me after watching just a few shorts, in a class all by himself. I think Dave Schultz knew that to when he gave Cary back his placard.

It was an honor and privilege to grow up around Cary. My older brother was on the Jefferson Morgan team with him and it was an amazing experience to see and the people came out in droves to catch a glimpse of the 99-0, 4 state titles and outstanding wrestler awards winner. So proud of him and I’m extremely happy that this video series exists. Thank you. We all know and knew we were watching the greatest wrestler the world has ever known. You don’t need stuff on the wall to know that. Something he said in a highlight video from years ago was that he went to states looking to get the outstanding wrestler award and if you shoot for that, the state championship would fall in line. Stuck with me to this day.

Cary is the greatest American wrestler to never win Olympic Gold, and he was absolutely robbed repeatedly by corrupt officials. I've seen some old VHS tapes of Cary wrestling at worlds, and he was an absolute machine. Just tore through a whole bunch of world level wrestlers.

I don't know if I'd go that far. Lee Kemp was 2 time defending world champ going into 80 and got screwed by his own government. He was a no-brainer to win it in 80. Gene Mills is another guy that you could argue was the greatest to never win as well. He was on fire in 80 but was robbed of his chance as well.
@cdcaleo
@cdcaleo 6 күн бұрын
@@yahopostinguy429 Those are the two best counter examples, but I will say that Kemp and Mills were not singled out by corrupt officials. No American athlete in any Olympic sport could compete in 80, whereas Kolat was repeatedly robbed on the mat, or right after matches, by officials doing back room deals and disqualifying his legitimate wins. I've seen the matches in question and Kary was directly robbed in a way that Kemp and Mills were not.

The first part about how his dad treated him is sad. It may have worked but dang man I feel bad for him regardless of the excuses he makes for his fathers actions. When my kid is on the mat I disappear, I can see him but he can't see me. It's his fight not mine, if he wants it he will go get it. I also let others coach him and let him teach me. I just try to be a good drilling partner and let him get reps with a calm semi-knowledgeable guy. If he asks for a suggestion I'll give it but otherwise he just gets his reps flow rolling with the old man. I don't know if this way will work in the end but I couldn't do to my son what that guy did to his. Some day my son will remember the dad that was because I will no longer be. Make good memories men because someday that's all that you will be.✝️

Yeah when you make it to the state tournament these are the best kids in the state now I am from Jersey so Atlantic City boardwalk Hall if your wrestling they're your wrestling really good guys a New Jersey there's only one state champion in everyway class individually and there is teams that are ranked number one number for number 10 in the country.... They're all hammers so yeah Pennsylvania probably has more schools ranked in the top-25 the New Jersey but Pennsylvania also has more than one individual state champ at a weight class in Jersey yes teams have 3 groups but individually there's only one guy claiming a weight.. Pennsylvania New Jersey ,New York, Ohio, Michigan , Iowa California, then Wisconsin ,Arizona, Georgia, Florida would be my top 10 States in Highschool wrestling but New Jersey has had a state champion ever year for the last 10 years in a national finals look it up Pennsylvania has the most all Americans and the most national champions in the last 10 years followed by a New Jersey.. then there's a pretty big drop-off

Amazing Wrestler & Coach. I thought he wrestled at Lock Haven. Didn't know he was with Penn State. Chance Marsteller was at Lock Haven and mentions it a lot. I would love to hear why he transferred and his thoughts about Lock Haven. He seemed to flourish in the small wrestling school. Also his Thoughts on Chance Masteller his friendship coaching and how he helped chance get his life back.

On why he transferred, according to a couple articles I found online, Cary wanted to redshirt a year so he could train in freestyle for the Olympics. His coach got mad at him, and his coach’s reaction is what made him take a year off anyway and then transfer.

Tough as nails, I don't wrestle or do jiu jitsu at the moment though I have done a decent bit in the past. He is an inspiration to me for sure. I remember after learning some jiu jitsu going to fsu and wrestling with the team /club. There was this guy about 125 Ibs and he would take me down every time while I was weighing 165 or close to. I remember coming into a tournament and missing my normal weigh class by like a pound or so so I had to wrestle up at like 175 or 185 or something I forget. But I can say that I would rather wrestle someone a little bigger than me than smaller. The quickness or smaller wrestlers is so apparent when you wrestle them, if they know what they are doing they can be a real terror.
