Both them will likely be immediate starters wherever they end up. Have a couple years to see where rosters unfold to make a decision.

Not gonna get my hopes up but if we got Jax and Bo that would be an incredible team. We’d still have Hughes, Carroll, Merrill plus Lockett and Sakamoto.
Likely? LOL they are both generational talents, I'm talking Cael/Dake type of college wrestlers. There is nothing likely about them starting, they are program changing talents and if we can get even one of them it is absolutely massive
Only the Sith deal in absolutes
I was looking at Ohio State's lineup for next year on Wrestlestat. I noticed that Sammy Sasso is not on there. Did he not get a medical redshirt for being shot last year and missing the entire season? Is he not able to wrestle anymore due to the injury? Was just curious.
I don’t know what his current status is but I know a few months ago he already wasn’t planning on returning. Just with everything he and his body went through I think.
That is awful. This guy is a great wrestler and for some idiots to take that away from him is just awful.
They are a really young team who is only scratching the surface. I expect them to be fighting PSU in 2 years.
Tom Ryan was on FRL the other day, he mentioned that with Sammy’s predicted points they probably finish 2nd. He also said that they expect him to enroll 2nd semester next year, but cautioned that Sammy himself said he wouldn’t come back if he wasn’t at a competitive level.
I do not blame him. He was runner up two of three years, fifth the other year. Its a damn shame those pieces of shhhhhh............... took his senior year from him. An amazing wrestler that worked so hard for so many years to get it stolen from a piece of ****, its not right. The judge should allow him a round or two with them, so he can punish them.
He got shot by two teens trying to steal his car or break into his car or something similar.
Ya it was pretty bad. I don’t remember all the specifics but it included rods/screws in his back. Pretty incredible he got back in the room at all to be honest. But I’m guess it was a get back to be able to get back and then probably done after accomplishing that.
Ehh give me Williams for 3 more years instead of Parco for 1. Now if he wants to go 157 then I’m down haha
They have a superstar at 149 that redshirted last season and they don't want to make the same mistake that they made with Figueroa.
Kaleb Larkin for those who wanted a name. Was at the trials yesterday. Beat Kolodzik then took Yianni the distance.
Not sure how they made a mistake with Figueroa? Brandon Courtney was a three time AA, 2nd, 6th, and 3rd. And Larkin is a monster in freestyle. Don't know much on him when it comes to folkstyle. Is he better than Parco at folkstyle? I would think they would try to move one of them up to 157 where they have a big hole to fill with Teemer most likely moving to 165.
It’s Larkins 3rd year in the room with two redshirts (Olympic) so maybe they’re worried he leaves if he doesn’t start. Would have a lot of interest for sure. I know Figs flirted with transferring after he sat for a year.
Let's hope we get him and not Mizzou. Would be huge to get him in the room
EDIT: Looks like Pat deleted his tweet. But it said that someone in Oklahoma made a call to get his potential transfer approved. He speculated that may play a role in where he ultimately landed. As always with Pat take it with a grain of salt but man if OSU landed Wyatt that would be huge.

Would love to see Hendrickson in orange. Dude is a class act and a monster on the mat. Can only imagine how much Carroll, Merrill, and Hendrickson would push each other. Dang.
If we would have had him last year his points probably would have bumped us from tenth all the way to second.
Mineo's response to his own post.....
Hendrickson for a year while letting Merrill RS, hell to the f'n yeah!!!
