I think (hope) we go all in for Bassett. We let Spencer get out of PA, we need to keep the Bo tradition going. My donor friend said he was in the room working hard with Zain.
All of them are good enough to start somewhere, but not at PSU. They'd be quality depth if willing to walk on. If not, we're unlikely to do more than dip a toe in the water.
Harer will not be at psu…..his dad is not a fan of psu…..grandparents were hoping they both ended up at psu but not the case, that came straight from the horses mouth
His dad is not a fan of excellence? Methinks it may be about $ or starting, otherwise you have to respect what PSU can do for wrestlers.
It's probably about PSU not really going hard after Conner. After we got Sealey, nearly everybody saw that coming ... but that doesn't stop the parents from getting upset about it.
Cael didn’t come here to beat Lehigh
IIRC Gavin Hoffman’s family did the same thing when Michael Beard flipped his commitment from Northwestern to PSU. Granted, it was a slightly different situation because the Hoffman’s were huge PSU fans if memory serves
Spencer was always going to iowa somehow they brainwashed him to think they were better!!LOL
Similar and I was going to mention the Hoffmans. They were season ticket holders, not sure if the Harers were. The interwebz has pics of the Harers in PSU shirts.
16U PA team is competing in Utah today for Greco so those teams are already going. Although I been following and noticed alot of the top kids are not there on the team.
I would be shocked if Bassett doesn't choose PSU
PSU needs to get Bassett. Then in the 2027 class go get Melvin Miller and the Bachmann kid. If you want to look way ahead the 2028 class will have Bassetts little brother and the Mario Hutcherson kid. Hutcherson will be a monster upper weight. Bachmanns little brother Fred is a beast also.
We have to go into overdrive to get Bachmann.
Overdrive, Bachmann ... is there a Turner in 2027?
Are you feeling OK? Did someone from Iowa hack your account?
Having watched Dad wrestle in high school I can say he didn't have the right attitude to begin with he was the founder of whining and taken lungers whenever he could
you have no idea what you're talking about.
I like the idea of both but Bassett scores a lot more and from PA. I vote Bo plus we need another Bo around. The kid already interviews like a PSU veteran.
That's not the first time I have heard that.
Only if you follow FLO for wrestling news.

I thought their reasoning was interesting. The day Spencer committed to Iowa, I posted that I felt he chose Iowa to be their "star" and the face of a storied program something not so easy to do at PSU since Cael is about as great of a face for a program that you could get. The Hawk fans (and some here) got a chuckle out of my opinion but it is one I've always held to this day. Now the FRL crew is using that same reasoning for Bo to Iowa that I had with Spencer. He wants to be the STAR. I haven't made a determination yet if I think they are right but I will say Bo to Iowa is a longshot..
That may have played a role with Spencer, but by his word the main driver was watching Olympic Trials in person at CHA, seated next to McDonough, with both finalists at his weight being Hawks.
I agree Mike knows his wrestling.....and sounds like Tom Hanks, but he has not been with FLO for a good while. Not a pleasant departure. He is in California I believe.......still working in wrestling. Always liked his work.
