Flynn said Koscheck has progressed a great deal since then. He added that he does have a lot of natural talent, but it is his work ethic which has allowed him to develop so quickly. He's always had talent. But you never know how fast a kid will develop and that is just attributed to his work ethic. When Flynn was asked if his undefeated team leader could become a two-time national champion, he stressed Koscheck first needs to work on separating himself from the pack.
Nationals are a funny thing.
He is one of those kids who has a lot of fight inside of him. He wants to scrap. When he's hanging out and thinking, he doesn't get enough attempts. Koscheck set high goals very early on in college. I set a goal as a freshman after sitting down with coach Flynn.
