Just goes to show the immediate impact that an RTC can have on recruitment.
Kid can wrestle no doubt but theres a reason Michigan brought in the bigger guy. Its rare that you see smaller heavies at the top. If we see another few years with really big heavies like when we had Gable, Parris, Big Cass, Kerk, Schultz, Wood, the smaller guys will struggle. There will be some exceptions but the bigger/taller guys winning is the rule.
It’s the new technical training. if you can take someone down, while they are swinging a 9 iron at you, you can take anyone down.
I get it, "If you can dodge a 9-iron you can dodge a single leg". That is a brilliant training technique and those words should be immortalize on the wall of the practice facility.
Big weekend coming up for Oklahoma State. Bo and Jax are confirmed in addition to a huge clinic. Football Game and Wrestling dual together.
You better hope Jax and Bo don't get shin splints from the cowboy boots you will give them. We safely give them ice cream cones. 🤣
Great opportunity for DT and the Cowboys. Who is the football opponent?
Maybe I'm being pessimistic but I expect maybe a slightly bigger crowd than what we would typically see on a Friday night in Nov. against Wyoming.
If that’s all that shows up then it’ll be a colossal failure by our fanbase. 1st dual or the DT era with a loaded team of AA’s and the biggest recruiting weekend of the year. We’ll deserve whatever the fallout is.
Just because you're getting Nachos doesn't make you an insider . You gotta earn those Nachos
ahh .. the first dual of the DT era was Utah Valley, there was crowd up to the rafters, course it was also the first dual of the Hall era.
The more important question is how much did he have to pay these five people to show up with him. 🤣
Lol you know what I meant... first home dualahh .. the first dual of the DT era was Utah Valley, there was crowd up to the rafters, course it was also the first dual of the Hall era.
I hope I’m wrong. I’m just guessing. Our crowds tend to be good so I don’t think it is a disaster.
When one ticket gets you into both duals it doesn’t sound like they are expecting a sell out or anything.
... but is it true they ordered 5x the normal truck loads of nachos? 🤔
I would think there is going to be a lot of people there with all of the hype of the new coaching staff. Think about it, this will be the first home dual in 30 plus years where John Smith is not the coach.
....I was around when JS wrestled and began coaching. When DT and team starts tomorrow, I intend to catch the first match about 30 years from now..........and also for the second match Sunday..........best to all.......rs
Bo Bassett today:
This weekend we are heading out to Oklahoma State. I am really excited to see Stillwater and see the new vision for their program. OK State has some serious wrestling tradition over the years and I am pumped to see their wrestling atmosphere. I hope I get a chance to scrap with Daton Fix and RBY when we are out there. I also plan to catch up with Ladarion Lockett as well. Friday we attend their first home match vs Wyoming, then Saturday a football game vs Texas Tech and Sunday another match vs Arizona State. This will be the last visit until late January. Then anymore I want to check out will have to be in the spring after states.

Jax is coming with Bo this weekend, correct? Is there anyone else coming?
