Wrestling legend Dan Gable joins host Jason Bryant and University of Dubuque head wrestling coach Jon McGovern on Episode 45 of the World Wrestling Resource Podcast to talk about the upcoming rule changes in NCAA wrestling for the 2017-18 season.

Most seem to be universally accepted, although there are a few that seem to have some degree of opposition. Coach Gable also breaks down his theories on why we lose so many wrestlers from the middle school/junior high years and debates the merits of having similar rulesets from high school to college to international wrestling.

Coach Gable also gives his opinions on sauna use and headgear.
