Inside Day 1 Of Recruiting For Top Wrestling Prospects: Bo Bassett & Jax Forrest

[@Wrestleknowitall197]

F the haters, flo is growing and advancing the sport with content and their platform!

[@kalebstuckey570]

I think the DT approach is spot on. Wait until the dust settles, let some tension build and make them anticipate your call, then call and get in a quality conversation when the recruit isn’t just waiting for the next phone call.

[@brendan638]

Good point, I agree! If I were good enough of a high school recruit, I would want to wrestle for DT at OK state.

[@xzjayz7925]

These young men worked super hard and should be proud of themselves for their accomplishments!! What a special feeling it must be to be sought out by all the top universities in the country

[@MeetMe-at-TheCreek]

It's important to keep families together and help your children go for their dream . Great documentary.

[@lucasevans8118]

YOOOO THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FORR!!

[@WilliamGreig-j8b]

So much attention is given to these amazing athletes and so deserved. They are all such good kids!! It’s hard not to notice how humble they are and even though highly competitive they are and truly believe in themselves and their skills, they all still wish the best for the other to be “second best” LOL!! The one thing that is overlooked so often is that they all have such a phenomenal support group of parents, friends and quite frankly, each other! They are true role models for the new generation of youth of this country and the world. Congratulations to all of them. You make us all proud. Best of luck no matter what schools you decide to honor with your presence.

[@steinervision7643]

I hope they enjoy the ride! This is a special time for these guys.

[@aarongilling9903]

This is EXACTLY what the sport needs! We need to develop excitement, new traditions, and fun things for young wrestlers to look forward to. Congratulations to these amazing wrestlers, I’m sure there were many other talented young wrestlers who had some wonderful phone calls as well

Jax to Kent State, Bo revives Eastern Michigan’s program single handedly

[@gobonk3424]

No

[@Btc_2012]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jorgecardenas2286]

Jax prob going to Iowa and Bo to penn state

[@xzjayz7925]

@@jorgecardenas2286ummm if anything it’s the opposite. Nothing in Jax Forrest screams Iowa…. Not even close to his style, most random pick. I look at Jax and think Okie St. Then I look at Bo and I think Iowa or Penn St.

[@dramaking9377]

😂lolll

[@timichals]

Shout out to Tyler and the @FloWrestling crew for doing a great job on these videos. The gap between parts 1 & 2 felt a bit long, but it was worth the wait. I'm torn on where they end up going. I think it could be both PSU or Bo to Iowa and Jax to OK State, but my wild card is they decide to go somewhere else together that has been close to the top frequently, but that they could help get over the hump and win an NCAA Team Title. Wild Cards: Michigan, Ohio State or they stay home and go to Lehigh. Not sure what the Lehigh RTC situation is and what that would look like post college training for the Olympics, but throwing it out there anyway.

[@giacalonebuilding4443]

21:00 Jax says “David Taylor , that was THE school I was hoping to reach out”

[@dpc0809]

If Bo wants to be like Spencer and revive a past dominant program then I could see him going to Oklahoma State over Penn State and Iowa. Would love to see him at Cornell too and that’s so much closer to home.

[@billybud9557]

As a coach, how i'd love to get both of these young men into the same program. Where ever they go, they will be stars.....

[@aswordinthestonetv]

that dropped call with taylor hurt me lol love the video

[@revealingmedia-h5g]

JAX is just so damn likeable.

[@superman198224]

Jax to Okie State at 141 and Bo to Pen State at 149 or 157 would be my guess.

[@jacob45415]

Jax to Penn state and bo to Michigan

[@kalebstuckey570]

Oklahoma State

[@michaellazor2659]

hoping either Penn State lands both of them, or Iowa gets neither🤣

[@xzjayz7925]

157!? WHAT!? Bo is way too vertically tiny to be a 157 pounder. I think 141-149 would be his optimal weight. He has a Yianni build. Jax is a 133-141 pounder, he has the frame to stay at 133 and the frame to fill out 141.

[@matthoffman2411]

Good for these kids, they definitely deserve it.

[@AllenCarterNews]

Well done Tyler! Appreciate the inside look

[@nathanarellano4375]

been waiting for this one 🔥

[@ChampMannyRey]

I can’t wait for this !!!! When I’m a Junior!!

[@JonSmith-oy4bi]

I hope Oregon State reached out to Jax as well. They are a team that I have been a fan of for a long time and is a solid program being the best one on the West Coast over the past 15 or so years. I would love to see either one of them go there and develop under a multi-national champion Chris Pendleton

[@1515cando]

Bo wants to be a program, not a part of a program. That says he's not going to be a Nittany Lion. Or really any of the top tier teams. Great kid, but perhaps some humility and the perspective that sometimes being part of something greater than yourself will be more life fulfilling.

[@stetsonstarkey]

To be fair, if he went to either Iowa or Oklahoma State, he would probably almost immediately become the face of that program. It's really only Penn State where he would just be another cog in the machine.

[@aantoine5819]

He’ll probably still end up at psu lol, 90% of the schools have no chance anyway

[@stetsonstarkey]

@@aantoine5819 I agree that they would be the betting favorites, but the things that he's saying makes me think it's a little bit less likely than we would assume for a guy of his caliber who's from Pennsylvania. Penn State is the safest bet, but I think it would be more exciting if he goes somewhere like Oklahoma State where he can really help to define a new program instead of just continuing on in the Penn State machine. Feels like it might be the least interesting storyline from a fan perspective at least

[@jacob45415]

@@stetsonstarkeyu think it’s more likely jax Forrest goes to Penn state than bo Bassett

[@stetsonstarkey]

@@jacob45415 I honestly have no clue. I personally hope Jax comes back home to North Carolina! But I doubt that outcome....

Halfway through and no mention of Minnesota. Sad

[@williamoleary9330]

So based on what Bassett said in the beginning it sounds like he’s not going to Penn State

I actually asked a follow up question to that but it didn’t make the edit. He clarified that he wants to change any program, even it’s already successful. -Tyler

MICHIGAN IS YOUNG WITH SOME OF THE BEST RECRUTIS. Both of these fine men would bring home a National title for Michigan. Some of the best education you could ask for and they love Jesus and like to have fun too. Ok State is my second choice. But I pray they go to the same team and dominate and change the program for the better.
