Almost but not quite. What he said was, "Come be a part of the future in Stillwater… We’re going to light the wrestling world up like a Blazing Forrest fire while you lounge in a Bassinet".To be fair what he actually said was… Come be a part of the future in Stillwater… We’re going to light the wrestling world up like a Blazing Forrest fire.

Close… he actually said with you boys on the mat DT and I will be able to lounge back in the corner and turn you boys loose like a Basset on a bone.
He also dropped this little nugget.. “With a Blazeing group of Young Guns like yourselves on the mat… we should be able to Lockett it up in no time.”
The encounter ended poorly when Blaze asked for a race car. DT broke out in a cold sweat and needed some refreshment from his juice bar to recover.
He never really had a chance to make an 53-man roster this year, let alone one as good as the Bills. It is really about if he is showing enough in practice that they want to keep him on the practice squad and let him develop.
I could be wrong but it is like $12K a week if you are on the practice squad.
That’s right, but it’s only for the season (18 weeks). Still a heckuva good deal for someone but just clarifying it’s not 600k a year. 216k for roughly 4 months. Now someone like gable is gonna probably lose 70k of that to taxes. So 150k take home for half a year of his time. Again, good deal for a guy who is jumping around lol.
Thanks for entering my brain for a minute. The rabbit hole is real.
Just before I read this I was thinking that I have never seen DT or Gilman in orange. It seems like their always in gray, however I was able to find some pics of them in orange.
Sorry to burst your bubble but, Blaze is a lock to Osu, his dad Cory was an All American at Osu in 1988.
It’s a gradual ascent into heaven out of the shadow of Happy Valley. (JJ to all my PSU friends, 😉)
It’s always a good day when I can stumble upon a Foghorn Leghorn meme.

The NCAA has its role and fulfills it extremely well.
Providing obscene amounts of money to a group of adults who in turn pretend to give a shit about the well being and opportunities provided student-athletes.
Other than the Bo Bassett weekly news, does anyone have any news on recruiting? Blaze? Burton? Jude?
God's country is literally 60 miles from Happy Valley, so it stands to figure that heaven is 60 miles from God. Just a two hour drive on the back roads.
220lber in HS. Trained at M2. Not sure if he’s a collegiate 197 or HWT?
He is an M2 guy that trained with DT throughout HS
He was a Pennsylvania state champ as a Sophomore and runner up at 215 in 2024. Just looking at footage I would say he is going to be a heavyweight not a 197#. There are 2 other Pennsylvania 215 pounders ranked ahead of him by Flo.
Really good get for the Pokes, tremendous athlete and clearly one of DT's favorites. That being said, I imagine Michael Mocco is who DT has his eyes on for his future 285.
But as I’ve said many times… you need a HWT in the ‘25 class. You don’t want be relying on a true fr in ‘26. If he is being brought in as a HWT hopefully this guy can RS this year and be (at the least) a one year stop gap in ‘26. If Mocco is ready and can beat him in ‘27 then so be it imo.
Portal Heavy. Orrrrr Hendrickson 😉
That makes sense, he was definitely was closer to 215 .... Cody Merrill is clearly the man there but like I said, Johnson is a great get for the room, as a practice partner, depth or ... who knows, someone who exceeds his ranking and a star.
As far as I know, Blaze hasn’t said anything in a very long time. Im not saying we get him but any list put out pre DT isn’t dependable imo.
He seems to keep his cards close.
Really looking forward to seeing if he surprises everyone and commits to OK State. Would be a huge pick up for DT and the team.
