What do the quotation marks mean?  Is the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences not part of Cornell?

And why do you assume that Bassett would be in the Ag School?  Current roster includes

Engineering:  Milani, Tate, Hatcher, Chamberlain

Arts&Sciences:  Perry, Cardinale, Qureshi, Shvartsman, Canoyer, McLean-Felix, Davis

Dyson Business:  Sciarrone,

SC Johnson Business:  Ferrara, Cornella

Architecture, Art & Planning:  Fernandez, Foca

Computing & Information Science:  Wade

Industrial & Labor Relations: McClenahan, Carlson

 

😉 Easy there, Sparky...

A bit sensitive w/ that Cornell/Ag School question that keeps coming back? 😏

Rest assure, that the Big Red isn't going away ANY time soon (your program is too well established to just fade away... )

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Bassett has stated he wants to be the face of the program and to change it. That statement has Oklahoma State vibes written all over it and I am all for it. Let's see the Bishop McCort to Stillwater pipeline. Anywhere but Penn State - they have more than enough going for them at the moment. 

That was my first thought as well.  You could maybe argue Iowa if he wants to be the first 4x’er.  But definitely not Penn State.

Seems to me ASU. He brings the team trophy out West.

I enjoy Bassett's high energy wrestling and he seems like a good kid, but this has got to be one of the most protracted "Advertisements for Myself" in sports history.   

He started off eliminating 7 schools each week and it was kind of fun.   Then he went to 3 and it became more "ho hum". Now it is down to 1 each week with what (?) 17 still left.   (Pitt Johnstown coaches are waiting with baited breath .... NOT.)

What's next? Will he eliminate a letter or a vowel in the name of universities?  Will he hide clues in locker room jock straps?  Will he turn to Wordle or crossword puzzles with hints?  Will there be prizes hidden in cereal boxes across the country?  Will he use skywriting planes to announce and eliminate the penultimate university (scratch that: it might actually be interesting)?

Will he surprise all of us and announce that he is skipping college to focus on freestyle or to take up Inter-gender wrestling a la Andy Kaufman?

And will we have a final answer before Christmas in 2026?  

Stay tuned to "Bo Doesn't Know ... or Does He"?

I see a lot of haters. If you are not entertained or interested in where Bo goes, or his updates, simply do not read the post. Of all the crap going on in this mixed up world and all misdeeds of so many athletes some want to vilify Bo because they do not like him counting down his college decision? Give me a break! I enjoy it. I look forward to the weekly eliminations. Look at all the dating/reality shows on tv where there is a weekly elimination. This is the way of today. Some here are stuck on "Lawrence Welk" and "Hee Haw" mindset. Enjoy it or ignore it, but lashing out only makes you look petty and small.

Tatoos are not acceptable now? In who's world? I have zero tatoos and probably never will, but damn, that train has long ago left the station. The percentage of people with tats these days must be at an all time high.

Why not let Bo be Bo? If you are not a fan, so be it. But posting negatively about a high school kid because he is not doing things the way YOU think HE should act and live seems, well, petty.

If it was Bo being Bo, that would all be ok.  But when mom, dad and uncle try to be Bo it is a Shit Show.  You can’t tell me top teams are not saying do we really what this family in the program.

I have no idea what you are talking about with regard to his family 'trying to be Bo" or what shit shows you are referencing.  Nor do I believe that any top teams wouldn't want them in their program--or that you would have cause to know.  Kid works his tail off, leads a clean life and wrestles like a madman. 

All you have given are just vague references and no facts.

The perfect match on the roster with Ferrari at Buck Owens University where he will fit right in with a tattoo in White Trash Trailer park condos.

Once again, I'm going to point out that the entire purpose behind why he's doing his version of "the decision" is to engagement farm using rage bait. The people getting mad at his tweets are only doing exactly what he wants, which is to get attention. So you posting that it would be best for people to not say anything if they don't like it is doing exactly the opposite of the purpose of his post, because unfortunately, today's society values attention more than anything else.

I think we need to stop focusing on a high schooler's physical appearance and prospects of getting laid in college in this wrestling forum.

It's not the forum's fault he was held back two years.
