Whatever match it was where he was down 6-0 or 7-0, he looked pretty unreal as he stormed back to win 14-14. He was a fun watch. Quick to the legs and a great finisher in that match.
bnwtwg Posted October 19 Posted October 19 Bad tournament all around leads me to think that logistics was a contributing issue, which wouldn't be the first time this would be an age group worlds issue for USAW. LL is probably nowhere near peak fitness. He already did that for NCAAs + senior run earlier this year, he probably wound down for the summer to recover, and has the same 6 month run ahead of him beginning in about 30 days. He's still a senior medal level wrestler. Bassett's losses will hopefully be motivation and build match tactics wisdom. Better U23s than senior worlds if he has to take a tough loss and DNP. And it was rightfully called out that while Woods medaled last year, he was a butthair from not even making it to Final X last year and took multiple losses since he earned a world medal. Basset is hyped to be the chosen one just like Kolat and Mocco and DT were, but his career is just beginning. Jayden James looked good, but he's young compared to the field and it showed at times. He will be a-ok and probably repping the senior team by the team he finishes his 6 in 5 NCAA career. It's awesome that the new normal expectation is Team USA wins every weight and team title, but it's not realistic. Sometimes we need to be humbled and reminded that the rest of the world is really, really, really good at wrestling. 4 i am an idiot on the internet

Most of your guys are very very young competing against very experienced senior level guys. Its pretty natural for young wrestlers to struggle. A lot of the guys who have medalled in Iran's team have been competing at U23 circuit for 2 or even 3 years now. Karampour, Khari, Rahmani and Yousefi being notable examples. U23s is a big step up from U20. If anyone thinks guys like Basset and Lilledahl aren't future world medalists you would be lying to yourself. Also you guys sent a weaker team this year compared to last year for some reason. Why wasn't PJ Duke competing for the spot at 70? I also feel the excessive publicity and film that surrounds your guys has a negative impact tbh. Basset has been surrounded by media since he was like 15 so much so even guys in Iran knew about him at junior levels. I honestly like a lot of the US guys more so than the Russian team. Khaniev and Akhmadinov spent more time on the floor sleeping then wrestling against our guys. At least you guys wrestle to the final whistle. USA MFS team had only one guy under 20 Iran's MFS team had three guys under 20

If he is outgrowing the weight I am pessimistic about 57 outside of the olympic year sounds like Jax and Ben may both be going down. 61kg: Davino was great but we could have also sent Seidel (20), Forrest (19), Blaze (19) 65kg: Bo was our guy (20) is Khateri 18? good grief 70kg: Robideau was our best guy (20) Khalili was irans but Elahi is a stud as well 74kg: Jayden was far and away our best guy (18) 79kg: Levi Haines was our best (22) I think Will Henckel or Matty singleton would have been our second best Will may be 20 still or 21 Singleton I believe is 21 86kg: I would send Aedon again but one could make a strong argument for Mcnelly I believe they are 20 and 21 respecitvely 92kg: Josh Barr (21) 97kg: Rademacher was our guy 125kg: Dreshaun ross (19) 1 I am the personal property of VakAttack
