the "weak" spot for PSU is definitely interviews! Bo's interview is clearly the top choice --- I would have to say that Sammy Brooks mullet interview is my all time favorite

Funniest: Vincenzo Joseph (a lot of examples but I always laughed his Twitter profile just said he was a 2x Allegheny County Runner Up)
Most Improved: Anthony Cassar seems like the easy one but .... I'll throw a curve ball and say AB (Watch his matches from freshman year until now) HM: Terrell Barraclough
Best Post Finals Interview: Come on ..... HM: Jason Nolf after 2019, showing having beef and resentment because someone said something is not a part of this program
Most Articulate: Nick Lee (ever listen to his interviews? There's a reason why Cael immediately offered him the job)
Most Intelligent: Going to give it to the kid we convinced to give up Ivy League educations to come here, Shayne Van Ness and Beau Bartlett (Cornell/Princeton) I would also like to add I believe Jason Nolf was leaning Stanford if not PSU
Most Driven: Carter Starocci (I don't do what I do to believe another man can beat me)
Most Relaxed: RBY (I have no idea how he remained unflustered in so many situations in his career)

Agree Bo is #1....But let's not forget
Carter "That's what big balls look like" Starocci... for best interview consideration!
 
Ok - here are a few more categories:

Most Intimidating
Best Looking
Most Disciplined
Most Studious

This interview.


17. What college team or wrestler do you hate the most and why?

I try not to hate anybody, especially somebody I am competing against. Ohio State.

Most Intimidating
Best Looking
Most Disciplined
Most Studious
Most Disciplined = Matt Brown. NCAA champ/2x finalist/3x AA while on ROTC.

Brown also has to be Most Studious -- 3.97 GPA, named NCAA Division 1 Academic All-American of the Year, and received post-grad scholarships from both NCAA and B10.
