Coach Burnett was the most positive person I have known. He made practice extremely hard but worth it. I could be losing by a bunch and he would be encouraging and tell me I got what it takes to win. I usually did because I did not want to let him down.
In my summation, Dave Schultz was the purest competitor I have ever seen. Regardless of the sport. LOVED to train, practice, drill, coach, teach, mentor, guide, share, learn, etc. Win or lose, loved to compete. The most passionate athlete I've ever seen. Kevin Green, Sam Mills, Chris Spielman, Michael Jordon, Charles Barkley, Jerome Bettis, Frank Gore, Charles Oakley, Kenny Monday, John Smith, Bruce Matthews, Kobe Bryant, John Stockton, Kyle Snyder, Tom Brands, Alan Fried, Pat Smith, Joe Gonzalez, Jerry Rice, Joe Montana, Tom Brady, Steve Wiznewski, Larry Allen, Corey Dillon, Cortez Kennedy, Erik Williams, Mike Sheets. All great. But, Dave Schultz was the most passionate in it's purest form. And by the way, he's singin you a lullaby if he hits you with that front headlock lol
All those great names you mentioned and somehow you neglected to name the greatest competitor of them all and that was Larry Bird who was the ultimate competitor and teammate...I'm sure you just forgot so just wanted to shoot it out there.
Whoever dislikes, has no idea what D. S. is to wrestling! Do some homework and you’ll realize what a great man he was not only to wrestling but his family as well....
Damn, I like and respect that he used a similar double wrist lock reversal as his brother Mark got DQ'd for on the 84' Olympics. But, he just didn't crank it the same way that Mark did. Like almost everything on the mat, Dave used it tastefully.
RIP Dave Schultz❤❤❤
Literally crying right now after watching this.
When he read "i had a blast, Thanks" is when my tears hit the ground... RIP Dave... if you only knew how much my son wants to be like you on the mat!!
Great piece... Bruce Burnett and Dave Schultz = two truly great legends in the sport. RIP DS🙏🏾
Awww...at the end, he says, "I love him." So heartwarming.
I can only imagine what was it like being friends with Dave. Must've been a dream.
Nice observation, thank you for sharing. I agree.
Dave will always be the best.
I never wrestled before but Dave Shultz is awesome
Wow. Great edit of the video footage to the coach's audio. Powerful. Thanks.

Definitely got something in my eye
GOD bless You Dave.

Kobe Bryant and Dave Schultz died on the same day...Bryant 24 years later, just like his jersey was a 24.
