Alex Facundo at OK State

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

Any word on how Facundo is looking?  We know he is an elite freestyler but interested to see how he fares in his first year as a full time folkstyle starter.  Have to think he AA's under the tutelage of the the Magic Man.

He was a ncaa qualifier in '23 Jimmy

[Truzzcat]

He had a bad NCAA's but he beat 4 all americans his Redshirt freshman year.

In other words, he wasn't in the same class as Levi Haines or MItchell Messenbrink but he's way better than Ok State back up Ben Mower.

No one is in Messenbrink's class.

No, but he has a new wardrobe

I think Hendrickson and Zaid are proof something positive is happening. Let's hope same for facundo. Good for sport

[Mr. PeanutButter]

He's not going to beat the eye poking headbutter but I think he could provide a very intriguing and irritating match up for Caliendo
