Or having to go through that silly concussion protocol only to be found to be healthy!

You forgot Messenbrick.  I saw a new one today: Helen Margolis won no-gi BJJ worlds.

He is joining Mccorts 157lbr who placed at ironman, who also happens to be former teammates with the two guys that were once committed to Cornell and then psu and then Rutgers. His name escapes me though.

What happens if Basett and Messenbrick end up on the same team?

TBH, I didn't go back and read all four pages of comments as most of them are well outdated by now. However, with Bo's comments in the past about wanted to be a trendsetter and "the guy" at a program, it seems only fitting that he is to David Taylor what DT was to Cael when building their respective programs. Bassett has the chance to be the face of the program during the revival of Ok St to a perennial title contender. It has to be tempting, especially having the chance to push for their first title in 20+ years during his career.

He can do that at OSU as well as OKST...

ftfy ... and if Bassett has actually been watching college wrestling, say the last couple weeks or so, which program might he want to join?

You should know that when you throw it slow and straight it gets hit out of the ballpark!

I'd argue it's not the same at tOSU as OKST. The Tom Ryan regime has had several "faces" of the program during his tenure, and none more notable than Logan Stieber. Logan went to tOSU and with that came his brother Hunter, and high school teammate Tessari, and then you had the Jordans, Snyder, MyMar, NaTo, etc. etc. OSU is a great program, and I would still love to see Bo go there, but OKST has been (relatively) down for a number of years at this point, and with a new coach and hopeful resurgence to becoming a title contender, Bo has the chance to be part of the revitalization of the program. I love Tom Ryan and tOSU, but given the comments he's made, it seems like Bo is either going to go to the proven PSU or become a face of a new look OKST team. I'll eat my words when the decision comes out, but if I were putting money on it today, I actually think OKST is where he ends up. I'm sure you'll have a quippy one liner for this take as well.

For someone who wrote ONLY to correct another poster that didn't need correcting,

"They got rid of the lowest weight and slightly adjusted the other weights to compensate. Saying they moved all of the weights up 7 pounds makes no sense." 

you sure are an expert.

How was that? Did I fulfill your notion of who I am...

[Mr. PeanutButter]

If he truly strives to be a "trendsetter" then he should aim at being the first 4x national champ at 4 different schools. Finishing at Iowa for major Nichols' nickels, of course.

become a face of a new look UPJ team.

Is he a junior still?  Also, I saw a facebook post that he is 19. Having 19 year old seniors is not unusual at all, but 19 as a junior?

[1032004]

Did he remove any teams this week?
