The VA TECH vs Oklahoma State dual will be entertaining if it happens.
at minimum it would mean OKST probably 2nd
VTech 3rd
Neb, Ohio State, and Iowa - one of them landing outside of the top 5

Minnesota and Iowa State should easily be in that mix....
NCST - and Mich can also make things interesting....

If PSU has # 1 Locked up again next season (and I believe they do)
OKST 2
VTech 3
Im gonna call Ohio St 4

Neby, Iowa State, Minnesota could all push the Hawkeyes a little further down that list!

He (Bo) doesn’t beat him (Jax) currently when they go at it. At least not typically…

this is one where I do have a direct contact who knows.
Well then it's settled. No need to wrestle for the next three years. Crown him now.

I hope you're joking. Right? Bassett did beat Vega in the past. Don't discount Bassett; he's good. Of course certain spoiled Penn State fans don't want him.
If he transferred after his freshman year, the entire Penn State team would welcome him home and he would fit right in perfectly.

That's a major point...Bassett has been 2 or more years older than his class contemporaries. A 20 year old SR in high school is actually the age of a lot of COLLEGE SOPHS or JUNIORS
You know that PIAA rules do not allow 20-yo athletes, right?

Bassett will turn 20 this August. He's 19 -- which is not that uncommon, for example Josh Barr is 22 in his 3rd year of college.

And Henckel was 20 before the season started.

BB will be an absolute beast right off the bat. He wrestles how we wish everyone would wrestle. I think he will lose matches, and maybe lose several in his career, but he is going to score a ton of team points and represent VT (or any school her transfers too later) very well. Some of the dislike is sour grapes pertaining to social media or his dad, but the kid can flat out wrestle. I'm choosing to enjoy watching him compete just like I do Jax,Davino,Sinclair, and a host of other guys who happen to not wrestle for one of my favorite teams.

Tasmanian Devil…
😂 I call him "the little rascal" because he reminds me of the old fight scenes with Spanky and Alfalfa, or Tubby vs Joe, on the old Little Rascals movies from the 1920s and 30s, because the film was always sped up so much because of the age of the stock footage 😂
