Lol that was obviously a joke post by the coach. When Bassett first made the list was before he could be contacted. I’m sure there wasn’t any communication from either side with many of the smaller schools.

Ok this was good (Gardner Webb coach)

What about the crowd that’s upset by it?

Fans of smaller schools that are still on the list seem to be enjoying it

IIRC, didn’t Ryan acknowledge this in a Flo interview?

Doesn’t the Northern Colorado comment kinda contradict your first sentence? I agree it makes him less valuable, but imo it kinda just pushes the tier of teams potentially looking at him down. It’s likely teams that would not normally have a shot at the podium or top 10, and if they have 1 other stud then that person + Ferrari alone could get them in or near the top 10. Although perusing wrestlestat there really aren’t many guys from mid to lower-tier schools ranked in the top 3-5. Here are a few possibilities imo (and I have no idea if any of these teams are interested): Lock Haven (Noto) Ohio (Kellar) SDSU (Devos/Berge + some other likely point scorers)

Guess I was wrong here. Willie said on the show with Basch that Perry is getting paid by OSU for a year (so he doesn’t think Perry to ISU will be official this season). Assume that applies to Coleman too?

Wait a second…he’s the President??? And they just cut a lot of programs apparently

Is Ukraine invited?

And many people say elite athletes aren’t motivated by “bulletin board material”…

There have been accusations relating to female wrestlers about an RTC coach there. If there’s any truth to those, I’d be surprised they’d consider AJ given the past accusations against him.

Seems like more than insinuating to me. Just not sure if it means NCAA or not

Because she said she loves America (paraphrasing). It was a great interview, but most of the “influencers” that talked about were contrasting it against some track athlete that apparently said some negative things about the country.

Everyone at least since his Rogan interview if not earlier

I honestly don’t really remember. I think so but if so that wasn’t why it went viral.

Well TMS went pretty viral after her interview last Olympics, unfortunately most of the people sharing it didn’t actually care about her athletic feat.

I think it is very common to try to flip HS kids. But yeah, kinda weird that apparently the ISU staff told the moderator that they didn’t want them to talk about him. Which to me suggests there’s a decent chance he might flip. Could be not so much they think they’re doing anything wrong though and rather that they don’t want more teams knowing for sure that he is considering other options.

I can’t believe he’s still saying “bag secured” So how much do we think the slumlord paid him to never actually represent the University of Iowa and flip off their fans?

He specifically said in the beginning he was keeping his options wide open and I believe that to be true. Now I’m sure he’s not actually considering some of these schools, but I think there are more than 10 with a shot. In no particular order, IMO: PSU OSU tOSU Iowa Rutgers Pitt Cornell NC State Nebraska Lehigh Arizona State Michigan Missouri Virginia Tech Iowa State UNC

Do you think St Cloud State contacted him?

Did he apply for Princeton? Depending on where he lives that and Rider are probably the only others within reasonable commuting distance

Uh, don’t many OSU wrestlers do this?

Bassett’s original list: Bassett’s updated list: Presbyterian, VMI, LIU, F&M and whoever the logos next to Sacred Heart and above VMI were appear to be off the list, not sure if I missed any. He’s tricky by moving them around though, almost thought tOSU was off the list at first.

what would Smith say?

That seems better than pretending you’re shooting someone
