FWIW, I put in a right to know request to Oklahoma for any contracts, documents, or communications regarding a visit from Penn State this year to complete a possible home and home, which many assumed would be the case, after the Sooners came to the BJC last year. They had nothing to pass along. Doesn't mean it won't happen. It could be possible that nothing is on record yet, or that my request wasn't specific enough, or that there is just no return trip for the Lions. Anyway, just wanted to pass that along.

Did you make a request to see if Bucknell gets a return trip as well? ;)

Ha, the reason I went outside of PA for this particular endeavor was because Oklahoma is a public university and this subject to these types of request which PSU, Bucknell, etc are not.

Sorry for my ambiguous snark, but I was wondering if Bucknell was going to make a return trip to Oklahoma. The Sooners wrestled them in Lewisburg the day after they wrestled us. Perhaps we could get Ira to pony up for a larger charter and share with the Bison.

Aw,man, I'm sorry! That flew right over my head, clearly. In hindsight, definitely should have checked on that, as well.

I think the Black Knight Invitational is about as certain as the Lehigh match.

I attended the Black Knight last year since it is only a 3 hour drive from my house (SC is 6+). Really good tourney to attend - except they ran out of food before the semis. Great to see some of our non-starters get their chance to show what they can do. Also got the see Levi ‘forget’ he was wrestling folkstyle and not freestyle and leg-lace an opponent for what would have been 2 exposures.

Glad you had a good time. I've heard nothing but good things from others who have attended in the past.

Hmm. Someone has incorrect info. So far, we have Minnesota, Ohio State, Michigan State, and Rutgers all claiming to be hosting Penn State. Now Wisconsin is as well:

Update: Wisconsin has since deleted its tweet. I assume the Badgers are coming to State College. But, will update once confirmed.

Michigan at Penn State




Away -- Rutgers, Minnesota, Ohio State and Michigan State
Home -- Iowa, Michigan

No Nebraska or Indiana

The shame of wrestling a limited Big10 schedule is there is a nice rivalry building between Nebraska and Penn State and not wrestling dulls the intensity of the rivalry.
The last few seasons Nebraska has wrestled PSU harder than the Hawks.
The other downside is we rarely wrestle Minnesota. Granted these Gophers aren't JR'S Gophers, and Eggum doesn't stir the pot in a manner similar to JR but I wish we wrestled Minnesota more frequently.

Second this. I really enjoyed covering that match last year. I get it all runs on a rotation but, still is a bummer.
