A thought just popped into my head. Had the singlet pull not happened, DT is still here, and Iowa gets Ross, Jax, Bassett, and let's say Vegas for good measure?
Interesting, but Brands would still ruin them all.
PS - I will throw in this tidbit. Let's see what happens after next fall. Ross is a 6' 4" athletic phenom. I know everyone is saying he has decided to go all in on wrestling, but let's wait until after his senior season. I think a number of big programs come calling with NIL as well. 18 year olds have been known to change their minds. His football injury was also a shoulder. He seems to have healed just fine but shoulders and wrestling aren't friends. He just may not face anyone good enough to wrench that shoulder for a while.
