Daniel Cormier to Coach Gilroy High School Wrestling Team in California

Former Oklahoma State Wrestler and current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier has taken the head coaching position at Gilroy High School in Gilroy, California.

In a very cool move, Cormier has elected to give his entire salary to his assistant coaches former Oklahoma State wrestler and two-time All-American Kyle Crutchmer and former Edinboro wrestler Shawn Bunch.

Worth noting: Cormier has elected to give his salary to his assistant coaches. Won’t make a dime off this gig. https://t.co/uFgIqWdKk0

I’m not certain, but I can almost guarantee you that no other high school in the country has an Olympian and two DI All-Americans as their coaching staff.
