  • John Madden, Hall of Fame Football Coach
    "I would have all of my Offensive Lineman wrestle if I could." - John Madden, Hall of Fame Football Coach "Well-respected by coaches and teammates for his tough, aggressive nature (comes from his prep wrestling background)" - NFL Draft Scout on Alex Stepanovich "One of the messages Denney hopes to relay to the Valley high school coaches and athletes is that wrestling is the perfect complement to football. While football is in its offseason, wrestling provides the perfect opportunity for the athletes to remain active, while working on their agility and conditioning, Denney said. Shawhan can attest to Denney’s theory, also having an extensive gridiron background. Along with playing semi-pro football, Shawhan also has years of being an assistant football coach throughout the Rio Grande Valley (Mission High, Harlingen High, PSJA High, McAllen Memorial and McHi). "In Texas, everyone knows that high school football is king," Denney said. "I’m telling you, though, Texas is catching up in wrestling. And a lot of the football coaches are realizing how much wrestling can help their football team. And believe me, that’s the truth. I know it firsthand. You have to remember when I started out I was a football coach in high school, and I would go to the wrestling team and get everyone that could to sign up for my football team." - By Wade Baker,The McAllen Monitor MCAllen, Texas. "My football coach told me, 'You better get in wrestling or I'll beat you up,'" -- Tim Lee, Texas High School All-American Lee said that wrestling helps him on the football field because he knows he has to stay low.

  • Football Players Should Wrestle All Football Players Should Wrestle
    Wrestling -An amazing sport for football players!!! While sports like basketball, soccer, ice hockey and track can improve an athlete’s agility and speed, no other sport is as beneficial to football players as wrestling. These four skills: tackling, hand fighting, leverage and footwork (among many others) translate directly from the wrestling mat to the football field…...Trey Boyer "Wrestling set me up for success as a football player," Crockett Gillmore,Ravens "Wrestling gave me the technique to succeed in football," Tim Krumrie,Browns The Pitsburgh Steelers have seven ex-wrestlers The Indianapolis Colts have four, Vikings have four “Balance and control against an external resistance, leverage and positioning and the ability to move a non-willing opponent are skills needed for all football positions,” Andy Ryland, Trainer USA Football “Wrestling does a great job teaching this.” “I think you learn more from wrestling than any other sport,” Mike Zimmer, Vikings ALL FOOTBALL PLAYERS SHOULD WRESTLE ALL FOOTBALL PLAYERS SHOULD WRESTLE All Football Players Should Wrestle even if it is just for one season. The parallel lessons between wrestling and football cannot be denied. Even if football is your primary sport, spending a year competing with the wrestling team will make you tougher, perfect your positioning, build speed and power, improve your balance, increase your foot speed, build full body strength, as well as make you an aggressive competitor on the feld. All positions can beneft from wrestling, but lineman, linebackers, defensive backs, and running backs usually get the most out of wrestling competition. Do you feel like you can't wrestle because you need to lift weights all winter? We lift weights during the wrestling season too.
