94/100 out of Bo’s matches ended up being TF+… that’s just wild considering he goes to some pretty tough tournaments…
Yes, but they have zero history indicating they have the coaching insight to help someone accomplish that feat. Now consider we aren't talking a 125 pounder and they have practically zero success figuring out how to guide someone to even one championship.
If Bo wants to prove he can win NCAA championships without any coaching help then Iowa might be the place for him. However Bo seems like a bright kid who appreciates the importance of coaching assistance.
Ohio State has free tanning sessions and Panera's discounts.
Unlimited mat wrestling from the bottom position.
Mike Grey has coached two 4x champs (Dake, Yianni) and is out of the running. Brands and Goodale are still in it.
So maybe Bassett's decision criteria differ from ours, even if he likely reaches the same conclusion.
Iowa is selling their new wrestling facility….no wait, never mind 😆
In order for an Iowa prospect to use the facility; they need to be dismissed from Okee State, first.
I think Bo is likely headed our way, but wanted to highlight this because those fearing OKST over NIL are looking in the wrong place. Rudis is based in the Columbus suburbs, and Tan Tom would promote the living hell out of Bassett. I wish that we had Jesse's skill. Etc.
Plus it's much closer to home, with family being a significant consideration.
Hope you're right. The Rudis connection is why I say tOSU. I think he goes no further away than that.
Where can we find a wrestler like that?
Bo Bassett and Dalton Perry are in the same 145 pound weight class at the Mid- Winter Mayhem going on right now. They are opposite sides of the bracket and both in the semi-finals. It should be a good match if they meet in the finals. Basset is number one seed and Perry is number two seed.

Perry not getting his shot against Bo. He actually lost in the semis to Bo's teammate.
This was in reply to a tweet about Bo Bassett’s dominance:
He went on to elaborate about the 3 matches that actually went the distance:

Bassett at the anOSU-Rutgers dual at Covelli today (Jan 12). Apparently laughing it up and signing autographs behind the Brutus bench.
No reports as to whether he was bored with the Brutus wrestling (other than the Mendez bout) or thinking "damn, I could step right in at this place".

Did you watch the match? HWT was the only match where the low score was indicative of a lack of action. There were great scrambles that didn’t lead to points in many of the matches. 133 Bouzakis-Shawver and 157 Sasso-Harer in particular were great matches, hard fought and exciting with several great scrambles. In the 197, Shumate had TDs waived off in both the first and second periods because he didn’t hold them past reaction time. He finally got it in the last minute of the third only to see Poz escape in short time and get the game winning TD as time expired. It was a really exciting match to watch.
Oh, and Bo could start anywhere except 141 for them. That’s not a surprise. He’d AA this year if he were allowed to compete.
"Lighten up, Francis"
Did he see his new coach use his challenge in the first match with an 8-1 lead, lol.
It was just a weird comment because, no, I don't think anyone was bored there. It was actually a really exciting match. Whether he was intrigued by wrestling in nail-biters against Rutgers or not is a different question, though.
This is the new Coleman Scott wrestling camp in Stillwater, OK.
I'm certain Coleman Scott is giving rave reviews about Okie State.
Or he is smart or advised enough to feign indecision to get some NIL sweetener.
