Hammerlock3 Posted September 6 Posted September 6 The crowd saying bassett should get nothing but praise for his social media prowess should realize that his self imposed overexposure is naturally going to bring out ridiculous criticism. "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

I haven't heard anyone say he deserves praise. He's a kid who is probably being strongly "guided" by his father. The exercise is one that may demonstrate a lack of humility, which I can easily dismiss for a young man trying to find his way. In the mean time, it provides a small level of entertainment while I doubt fans are taking it too seriously. Coaches on the other hand, are probably very interested
Hammerlock3 Posted September 7 Posted September 7 5 minutes ago, flyingcement said: I haven't heard anyone say he deserves praise. Yeah I guess I can't think of an unprovoked statement of unmitigated praise on the subject, I just know that you can't disapprove of it mildly enough to avoid 3 weirdos jumping down your throat. "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

Could be people channeling their inner parent (me included), acting defensive about the perils of youth. Hopefully you didn't feel I jumped down your throat.

No not at all. the sentence i isolated was the only sentiment in the post that I thought could use a little nuance. 1 "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

Camel Wrestling Fan Posted September 7 Posted September 7 Bassett "the bust" just tf his opponent 10-0 in the first period to take 3rd in the world U20. If that is a bust, I'll take it

Your description of WRash's take as asinine is generous. Bo just won a Bronze medal as a 1st year U20 wrestler where he looked awesome in all his matches excepting the Semi loss. He has beaten highly accomplished D1 wrestlers as well as other super elite High School kids. Anyone talking about him being a bust is just a dick. 1 1
lu1979 Posted September 10 Posted September 10 Also why would anyone expect a kid to go to Fargo who was training to go to U20 Worlds? Seriously? 2 2 1

I didn't say I was cheering against him, calm down uncle bassett. I just said that after skipping fargo and getting teched at worlds, he might not be as good as advertised. We shall see. Lots of kids can't transition to the next level. it happens. 1
1032004 Posted September 10 Posted September 10 Not sure which version of the “list” it was, but allegedly a coach reached out after seeing they were on the list, but the Bassett camp did not respond.

Yianni, Spencer Lee, Vito (I think) and a host of others never wrestled at Fargo and chose to just focus on "making teams."

"Signs of a bust starting to show now" were your exact words. at no point did you say potential. just do us all a favor...become a fan of basketball and go away
