MMA guy saw my Y shirt, asked if I went. Said Y Wrestling stopped when the Coach
Went to UFC and BYU told him to stop as it gave BYU bad PR. He's friends with Schultz bro., guy is a coach at Dan Henderson gym.
It seems like this is the opposite, we would get great PR if it happened now.
Never knew the back story.

That was the dumbest decision ever. Title 9 is a factor as well of course

Why did men's gymnastics get dropped at the same time if it wasn't primarily

It was pre-emptive. They were worried the Men's Gymnastics coach would do UFC

Yes Title IX was the bigger deciding factor. In high school I worked with a guy

Oh I agree. But BYU did not like the idea of one of their coaches fighting MMA

That sounds like the university we know and love.

The MMA thing was a factor. What a waste.

Pres. Bateman also didn't like wrestling. Between title IX and Schultz doing MMA

Schultz was awesome but a bit counterculture for BYU

Was Mako Sakamoto also too colorful for BYU?

It probably didn't help that the gymnastics team all got busted for drinking

So 5 years later you drop the program?

A small group of us back in the late 90’s spoke with Schultz about that. It’s true that the university didn’t like him
