The fall visit season was in full swing last weekend, which coincided with some marquee college football games on the docket. Big games usually mean big recruiting weekends! Some high-profile wrestlers were on the road to explore new programs and perhaps find that perfect fit.
One of the things that makes following the recruiting process fun is the cloak-and-dagger secrecy surrounding certain aspects of it. For every Bo Bassett who routinely keeps the public informed on recruiting decisions, there are plenty of others who don’t discuss it as much. Therefore, it can be difficult to follow which recruit is interested in which school and vice versa. I suppose it’s fun, but you’re left wanting more!
To help our fan base feel more knowledgeable about the process, we’ll feature a weekly column that recaps the recruiting weekend. Who has visited where? Maybe some background information on the recruits or the process from the school.
Here’s last weekend's article: 8/30, along with the previous week
If we've missed a recruit or you'd like to provide info on future visits, please let me know: earl@matscouts.com
