It’s amazing to see how grounded he is in the ethos of wrestling free half way through his freshman year.I love when he states - maybe in this interview, but definitely in a recent one - that not giving up takedowns is nice, but it’s not a priority of his since he always plans to go out and get to his offense regardless of what happens.
I always hear about these defensive statistics - the classic case involved Mack Lewnes before he wrestled Ruth. BFD. Will Lewan gives up few TDs - easy to do when you never get out of a defensive stance.
