Oooh, I like 'sanguine.' I'm sanguine because Casey seems sanguine about where he is. And who he is. Dude really seems comfortable in his own skin, at peace really. He's a man of faith who seems grateful & humble and it just really appears (to the outside) that he appreciates where he is & what he's doing.
And something else that I am fixated on but which doesn't get talked about much is the numer of potential Penn State wrestlers who are children of this coaching staff. Casey & his Olympian wife have four children, three boys. They've lived in Happy Valley for six years now. By now, they certainly know what they've got in the community & the schools & the lifestyle for their family, in addition to the wrestling career opportunities. It's gotta be a huge hassle to uproot a family of five as is, but just doesn't seem to make much sense for a dude who clearly has great perspective in any is-the-grass-greener considerations. What 'opportunity' out there would be such a draw that it'd be worth that?
Lastly, the synergy in this staff is totally fluid & efficient. Any egos there are strictly egos about winning & not about the titles of their coaching positions or who gets more final decision-making power or even more money. The titles these three guys care about, at all, are the individual & team titles of their wrestlers.
And I'd guess Casey knows exactly where he can best lead a pursuit of those.
