Tramel: Why Greg Popovich is a basketball coach, not a pilot

I received an email this week from Wayne Baughman, the wrestling icon who was inducted into the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame in 2013.

Baughman went to John Marshall High School, then was an NCAA individual champion at OU and a member of two NCAA title teams for the Sooners. Baughman is the only wrestler to win national titles in all four recognized styles: collegiate, freestyle, Greco-Roman and Sambo. He was a three-time Olympian and the 1976 Olympic coach. Baughman retired in 2007 after 27 years as the wrestling coach at Air Force. Our man Trent Shadid produced a collected wisdom on Baughman in 2013, which you can read here.
