What are the odds he picks a school other than PSU, tOSU, Iowa, or OSU?

It's hard to imagine him committing outside of the six schools he's taking official visits to, so 1 in 3 chances, all things being equal?

• Iowa 
• PSU
• tOSU
• VT
• Okie State
• Rutgers

Different sports but with all the Rutgers chatter I think it is worth noting that they were able to sign the 2nd and 4th rated kids for the 2024 high school class in basketball. It would appear that they have some serious NIL money floating around somewhere. I'm not sure if that necessarily means it's there for wrestling but worth noting none the less. His cousin Mason is also a freshman there this year.

After already being at Cornell and PSU...

I don’t see any chance he picks VT.  Rutgers may have a miniscule chance due to Mason Gibson and geography.

Yeah, what's his connection to Va Tech?

Not sure, only chance would maybe be based on his comment of “wanting to change a program”

I am sort of looking forward to him flaming out.  He will have a decent career, but I predict no senior world team or olympic teams.

Have you heard of "age cheating?"

Always amazed how Cornell is always overlooked.  For God's sake, they finished top 3 in two of the last 3 years!

He goes to Rutgers to impact the program, and it's close to home.

Yes, but: tougher entrance requirements (I realize there are workarounds), tougher academic schedule, beautiful area... but not for everyone. 

Then you have the fact that his two cousins both committed to Cornell and flipped.  One was even up there for a greyshirt experience and left.  I would take that into account.

Not sure where to put this but former podcaster and current teammate of Forrest/Bassett Sam Herring committed to PSU.
