Don't see a thread for Dylan so I've stolen Jay's work:

Was his signing a bit of a surprise? Being there was no thread for him I'm assuming that means we never received a verbal, at least publicly anyway?

Not sure why. Playing other sports develops other skills. Like when a basketball player takes 1 hand pass and boxes out and fights for a rebound or develops jumping skills... Skills come in handy when going for a jump ball. Baseball players have killer hand eye coordination. Discus and javellyn have insanely powerful shoulders and forearms. Sprinters are... Freaking fast. Soccer players have amazing footspeed
Wrestlers probably have zero problem playing with a good pad level and using leverage plus they are in such good shape it's freaking ridiculous.

He will be a real man when he returns in two years from his mission. I think it is great that the coaching staff would do their due diligence and then conclude that he was worth waiting two years for, which makes me all that more excited to see him on the field in a few years. Some of the best DL in the 80s were wrestlers. They really understand center of gravity. Glad the Bison are going back to that tradition. Go Bison!
Lots of high school coaches are stubborn and only want their athletes under their control. We run into the same issue with high school wrestling coaches who don’t want their kids wrestling the Olympic styles (freestyle and Greco-Roman) in the Spring and Summer.
Personally, I push for kids to be well-round and not focused on one sport. When I was in the Events department, I dealt with a lot of parents who had extremely talented young wrestlers who participated/train wrestling all year. I told a few of the parents, along with their kid, that they need to enjoy other sports during the off-season. Most were “nope, little Johnny loves the sport and will go nonstop because he’s going to be an Olympian one day.” Most of those kids probably didn’t make it past the ninth grade, let alone a DI athlete.
These parents should look at how Russia trains their youth. No competition till they’re about 13 years old. Before that, it’s all practice, which involves technique development and lots of tumbling.
