Dan Dennis to HCW

Yet again, they refuse to do what makes the most sense. Put Terry in charge of HWC and hire a middle or upper weight college coach with some solid credentials and name recognition.

That would totally ruin the Munchkinland motif.

Is that what Terry wants?

Do Terry’s kids get free tuition if he’s just the club coach? That alone represents substantial chunk of change (not to mention the other benefits). Also, Tom and Terry are in their 50s now. I think they’re both settled in for good.

Correct. State employees do get a pension so maybe that has something to do with it given he has already been there a long time. Or it could be that he is one of the best assistant coaches in the nation and deserves to be on staff if he pleases.
 
Plus Terry is very involved with the HCW guys just like Casey is with the NLWC guys. He wears 2 hats pretty well and DD adds a little top game with Terry's takedown game. I think it is a good fit, but I'm perhaps biased by knowing what a truly great guy DD is.

Maybe. But I was told the Brands don't even read employment contracts, so how would he know that.
 
I agree that there are several non wrestling factors working against moving Terry to HWC but wonder if they even considered a plan to make it work?

There are no salary limits for the clubs so it comes down to funding. Why not propose a plan to your donors that keeps Terry's salary and benefits where they are while allowing the college team to bring in a big name?

Have to believe if Cael thought it would help both the team and club, he would make a concerted effort to make it happen. Win-Win exist, but it usually involves some effort.

I knew that the Evil Cael lived in heads of Hawkeye fans, but I never knew his control extended to the HWC.
