But then again why go to a military school if you have no intention of going that route? we also know of course he's not going to the Citadel Yup. But Bassett’s “list” is getting people to talk about schools that probably wouldn’t be talked about otherwise! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Maybe this is fun, but let's be real. I will eat my hat if the final four teams are not Penn State, Iowa, OSU, and tOSU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being as you said 'AND' I will take that bet. You are ignoring the money behind Michigan (as well as the Olympic/World aspirations) on top of his having family at Rutgers. It is more likely one of those sneaks in to the Top 4 than the four you listed being the Top 4. "I know actually nothing.

Obviously, the idiom/figurative speech of "eating one's hat" is a bit much for some of you to wrap your heads around; rest assured, I will arrange some sort of hat-eating restitution if I am wrong. FWIW, I have zero insight into the Bassett camp's mind. I simply went with the top four of pretty much every elite-level recruit and set aside Michigan in favor of the new Taylor-led Cowboys.

It's not the figure of speech that it a bit much for us to wrap our minds around, it's your lack of knowledge on the history of betting on this board.

BlueWolverine Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 I like Michigan's odds of at least being in the final four. If Bassett is serious about Olympic/world freestyle, which I assume he is, Michigan currently ranks second only to Penn State in that area. Oklahoma State might build that side up quickly, but Iowa has fallen off substantially (outside of Lee) and Ohio State is practically non-existent.

Which sounds absolutely ridiculous to me, unless they were getting a non-military funded scholarship to be in it. Talk about a total buzzkill during college. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to one of the military academies, I am pretty sure you have to go in for four years after graduation and if you don't you have to pay back your tuition. Would be interesting to see who actually pays their tuition at these other non-academy schools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my team is not expecting to be in serious consideration, getting on the list and dropped early just seems to re-enforce that we are nowhere to being a school that top rated wrestlers should consider.

So, 25% of them are NOT, at any point, on scholarship. So, student loans, parents, etc.1,200 enrolled in the Corps of Cadets out of 29,000 undergraduate students.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree. I think the “no press is bad press” line applies here. The Gardner Webb coach sure didn’t seem to have his feelings hurt, and thanks to Bo Bassett more people were able to learn of his comedic talents.

I dont think any saw a ""figure of speech" thing here this seemed pretty direct and simple: eat hat. No one is gonna forget this, this thread will be bumped as long as necessary, said eatery had better be live on YouTube. If all you have is a bunch of old dirty sweaty hats I'd suggest you go buy one thats more tasty. PS: maybe the good folks at Flo will broadcast this event.
