    Bo Bassett De-Committed from Iowa

    The Brands were in my same graduating class., but they were held back a year. They are 57.

    Tailgate Tour

    I just spoke with him in Dubuque. I was with my kid, and he wanted to jump in line to talk to Campbell, so didn't have much time to talk to Dresser. We just talked about last year's injuries and training. I asked about further additions, and he said we always have another late addition or two...

    If Carter gets matches in duals, I would be extremely disappointed

    Sorry, just don't think he's shown to be the caliber wrestler we'd be interested in bringing in. I don't see any good wins and he lost to Dylan Whitt

    He also beat Composto who placed 4th this year. He is certainly a good get for UV!

    Hodge Watch

    To be fair, you did say that he had more bonus victories than the hodge winner. I just wanted to put it into context. I agree that Star was one of the best.

    Many of Star's bonus victories were by 8 or 9 points. Prior to the three-point TD those would have been regular decisions. Not the case for Wyatt. The majority of his bonus victories were dominant.

    2025 "National Duals"

    I have no idea, but bet it is more often than one thinks!

    2025 "National Duals"

    We were also 5-1 against the teams that placed 13th-24th. I would bet we would have beat most of the others as well. I just think they should wait for the beginning of next season and incorporate the dual rankings into the selection process. Using tourney results is bad enough. Using previous...

    2025 "National Duals"

    Agree. This is a flawed qualifying system. To not take into account dual rankings is a poor decision! So many of those 13th-24th placing teams only had a decent wrestler or two that did well in the tourney.

    I think the right man won. Hendrickson was simply more dominant!

    Soldano has some upside. His body of work is probably the best amongst the other three listed. Is Dean a one-year wonder or did he improve that much? Results before this year were pretty bad. Stewart had a decent year when he placed 7th but really didn't have many great wins. Cotton is simply...

    AJ Ferrari: Yes or No?

    I'm okay giving second chances, but he's had more than that! For me, it takes more than a season at CSUB to prove he's not going to be trouble. I wouldn't take the chance on him or his idiotic family. He can certainly act like he's a changed man and found God, but I'm not buying it. If he comes...
