      He was an absolute beast. Not just strong, but incredibly smart and almost had a sixth sense in knowing what his opponents were going to do before they did it. He was so fluid in his movements. Wrestling is such a misunderstood sport. Thinking it’s just strength. Being strong is good, but leverage is so much more of a factor. I’ve played a lot of different sports, none of them were as demanding and draining as wrestling. Every muscles in your body is used. Another thing was Dave’s conditioning. He never ran out of gas. It’s like he got stronger and quicker the longer it went. Such a phenomenal athlete. It sucks so much John Du Pont was raised they way he was. I’m not excusing his actions, but his upbringing was awful. No real support structure or anyone to boost his fragile self image.

    Dave Schultz looked almost aloof when not on the mat. The second he steps on the mat and the whistle blows. His whole demeanor and look changes to an intense pit bull. Constantly looking to grab any part of his opponents body and wrench them onto the mat. His front face lock was no joke. More then a few very talented wrestlers took a nap after Dave grab ahold of them.

      7878 stew Yes, very sad. As a High School and Collegiate wrestler, I took this news quite hard. As adrian pointed out, the movie Foxcatcher told the entire story of the two Schultz brothers, both world class wrestlers and very fine men, and of course the tragic ending. If you get a chance to see it, I'm sure you would find it astonishing as I did. For the record, John DuPont was next in line to inherit the entire DuPont Empire, which would have made him the 4th richest man on earth.

      @@Mach1Airspace DuPont was far from being a "coach." He was a benefactor, plain and simple. At a time when the funding for USA Wrestling was so piss poor, DuPont took it on as a sort of hobby-obsession to provide the wrestlers with a place to live and train on his estate.
