That's the reason that everyone should be a fan of Bo Bassett. This match is taking place a week after Bo won a world title on the other side of the planet. I would assume Bo has been spending 99% of this offseason focusing on freestyle. Between the travel and lack of folkstyle reps, I don't think anyone would really blame Bassett if he said he wanted a couple of weeks to gear of for folk and that he'd see Stanich at the All-Star. But Bo just doesn't give a rip. He'll genuinely wrestle anyone, anytime. He isn't afraid to lose. He isn't concerned about the circumstances I just mentioned above. He's taking on Stanich for his first official match and could start his collegiate career 0-1. Hats off to both Stanich and Bo though. They knew this dual was happening and they agreed to wrestle again in two weeks at the all Star to make this year a likely trilogy between them. These guys are dawgs. How great would it be if we had more guys willing to put it on the line like them.

I wouldn't repeat a rumor normally, but i have it on good authority that Flo's servers crashed when pyles plugged his vibrator into the austin electrical grid.

With every pejorative at your disposal, you go with this?

The hype is the best wrestler on the planet (for a time) is transitioning to a new style. That is exciting. He torched two world gold medalists in one tournament and now he wants to win an NCAA title and he's in the best wrestling room on planet earth. If you cannot get hyped up for that idk what to tell you

They never seem to have technical difficulties with their billing

I hope 49- Williams 57- Block

How folks who, "love" college wrestling but won't get FLO is strange...

I have a feeling it will be Stanich that guts it out

Looking forward to this if it goes down. Both are exceptional, but Bo seems to be on another level; I may be wrong, and Stanich looks to be in full beast mode. Get the popcorn.

Everyone upset at Flo... does that count?

Carl had to pull that one from deep in the playbook.

Texas School Named After Beloved Janitor. A community in Texas honored a longtime school janitor known affectionately as "Miss Marilyn" by naming a brand-new school building after her, recognizing decades of hard work and kindness toward students

Jesus Christ will you all shut up? Snyder: full of crap, amazing wrestler. That's it. That's the tweet. Shut up.

If he isn't eligible he can't be practicing folkstyle with the Penn St team correct?

How is that possible? NCAA offers pending lawsuit redshirts now?

Not sure if it's been mentioned or not, but @MatSavant rolled out a super sweet dual/tournament timeline in the style of a TV guide at https://www.matsavant.com/events/tv

I don’t do my own rankings, I just show the Flo and Intermat rankings. What you saw was the old preseason Flo rankings, but it’s updated with the latest 11/2 releases now.

Getting money out of politics is a damn good idea. Maybe people will start running for office to actually help the people they represent instead of to enrich themselves. I think that's something all parties can get behind. Maybe some of the lifelong politicians will get out once they can't make gobs of money anymore. That would fix the term limits issue too.

I wouldn't say he, "missed" it...

Dave Schultz came to a camp I attended when I was younger and shared his experience with the Russians and explained how they got a long so well...said they'd bring suitcases full of just brand new jeans as gifts and the Russians loved blue jeans. Lol RIP Dave

Yes, Coach Robie does not talk about it too much. He will talk a little if you ask him directly, which is an incredible story of generosity. I know many factors go into recruiting, team fit, staff, your path to starting, can you improve here, school and degree options, etc. I have said on other message boards after this occurred, if VT is a fit for you and you are down to just a few schools, this can factor in as far as what kind of people are there. Frayer is also incredibly generous with his time to fans, alum, and the athletes. I know many programs have great people, just noting what Robie did is beyond normal commitment. VT is fortunate to have what they have and the new brick by brick along with the momentum of Bo and Melvin should set them up to be solid for years.

Pretty understated announcement for someone with such an incredible long-term impact

I've learned so much about Iranian wrestling just from tracking the comments here. Appreciate you guys!

Would love to see an evolution of the mainstream Republican identity away from MAGA, immigration and Israel, and at least in the direction of the fiscal conservatism of William F. Buckley Jr. et al. Still wouldn't vote that way, but there'd be much less rancor. Thrilled to see Abdul El-Sayed win in Michigan. Captain of his wrestling, football and lacrosse teams in HS, an MD/PHd Rhodes scholar, who accepted no corporate money and went on to defeat a corporate funded centrist in the primaries and a MAGA Republican yesterday, I hope his win shows Democratic leadership that corporate money isn't the only path to victory.

We should stay a republic and maintain the electoral college. Get lobbying and money out of politics. Ban individual investing by politicians and enforce punishment for insider trading. Ranked choice voting still has problems that can eliminate the moderate choice.

They can take advantage of loopholes, but we don't have to act stupid. Everybody knows what this is.

And also lost to #17 on Friday…

I don't believe it will look like an upset later in the season.

He was very hyped up as the greatest wrestler on the planet- a few months after getting teched in Japanese trials. He was never the best wrestler on Earth, but he did have an amazing week. He is certainly great. I do not deny that. If he won nationals this year, I wouldn't be super surprised. I still wouldn't bet on it. He has great coaches but he also has a ton to learn. That will not happen overnight. Mat wrestling will never be a strength. He will struggle in scrambles, and he will never match the folkstyle conditioning of a Bassett or Stanich. He was exhausted against Davino in a freestyle match in which he didn't attack. He could win nationals 1-3x depending on the Penn State lawyers; but he isn't going to make it look as easy as winning non-Olympic 61 in 2024.

The commentary though... "Antrell used that backbreaker again."

He wrestled 150 at the beginning of his senior season. He wrestled 65kg in 2024. Maybe he walked around at 143 back then. He seemed small at 65kg in those days. But now? That's ridiculous. He's a senior world champ at 65kg. And then here is the weight cert screenshot

that is a rough 20

Catrabone afraid to commit his offense on Lockett's Defense and Lockett unwilling to actually try to score points. Rock meets hard place.

you just made his point.

Weird ass scoreboard. Team score big. Have to squint to see the actual match score. Rozynski beating Gai 5-2

149 VTech starts with a tech. Gorman 17-2 early in the second. Henson must make for a good workout partner.

Did for a little while. An example: my Rouvy cycling app asks for user input all the time, they are making updates & improvements based on such. Just got new update and user experience last week. This is how UX is supposed to work - listen to the paying customers/users.

what if williams doesn't have the drive, but he is in the drivers seat napping? To me williams seems like a bad person and I can't believe he's gonna get a shot at block, Williams has tremendous discipline issues and looks tired three seconds into the match at 157, I don't think 149 even gets talked about....lets not forget block is one of the more exciting and likable guys in that lineup, and he's got better credentials than williams.

My sentiments as well. Stilly boys does a very good job at making you feel connected to the athletes while also giving a behind the curtain look at what is going on in Stillwater. This did not do much for me.

Bader and Flo are going to have their work cutout for them. I was excited when I heard about this, and I turned off the first episode 2/3 of the way through. It was pretty boring from the start, and after a 10 minute segment showing them at their Bible Study BBQ, I was nearly out, and then when the next segment showed Bo beginning a tour the freshmen dorms, I shut it off.

It feels like a Statler and Waldorf type of love lol

Michigan Entries. No Zepeda.

Very excited to see the match. People just thinking this is a good test for Bo have it completely wrong. Stanich and Blaze just have styles that combat Bo's very well. Let him keep pushing and wait for the mistake. If they can take advantage, they can win. He won't stop going forward, so there will be opportunities. I'm really excited to see it go down. Given how he bounced back from the U23 loss, I won't take too much stock from Bo losing round 1 Friday but still expect he'll pull it off.
