Bill started calling coaches last week and asking for $ . He called a few programs. Some laughed and some made offers
Yes. Of course, there was a reason he started making those calls.Bill started calling coaches last week and asking for $ . He called a few programs. Some laughed and some made offers
Too bad Googles isn't over here yet to give you a like.I feel like this may be more exciting for Ok St than it is for PSU. Convince me otherwise.
Why?Yes. Of course, there was a reason he started making those calls.
If Jax, Bo, Ross, and Miller all end up at OSU, the team race the next few years should be entertainingToo bad Googles isn't over here yet to give you a like.
Some here - Corby is likely in that group - may be able to convince you otherwise, but it is unlikely that they will try to.
Imagine you've heard where he's going by now . I think some will be shockedToo bad Googles isn't over here yet to give you a like.

Still hate the his dad and uncle so I am still out.All you Penn St fans who turned on Bo what are you all saying now. Imagine he's a great kid who you guys would love to have
Must be UPJ.Imagine you've heard where he's going by now . I think some will be shocked
um no let him go elsewhere...if kid wants to get paid without earning it... this isnt the place for him we have standards. Either you are on board with those standards or you are notAll you Penn St fans who turned on Bo what are you all saying now. Imagine he's a great kid who you guys would love to have

^^ Has no idea how NIL works, or athletic scholarships that have been offered to recruits for decades.um no let him go elsewhere...if kid wants to get paid without earning it... this isnt the place for him we have standards. Either you are on board with those standards or you are not
I haven't heard that it's finalized yet, just the couple of offers, PSU being one, and 2 orhers. Yes, one would be shocking. I'll believe that when I see it though. I could see one "journalist" being very happy about it. The other is not so shocking to me, although it may be to some - there wasn't much talk about them in this, but they are always a top program and they have money.Imagine you've heard where he's going by now .

Pitt would be very interesting. How humiliating would it be for Iowa to finish the team race behind Pitt in a few years.A connection I have said Nebraska and Pitt were making big play for him. For whatever that's worth.![]()
As a true fan and furthest thing from an insider : Color me surprised. It did appear like a kid who grew up idolizing Lee and being a huge Iowa fan. No clue where he goes but I am hopeful he makes the decision based on what's best for his career aspirations on the mat. I want to see all of these young studs develop and represent the U.S at the highest level possible. Even if he's not all that young.Pitt would be very interesting.

I have zero intel but Pitt would be my dark horse pick. To me it seemed their prior AD was trying to build Pitt athletics using Penn State as the model. She thought, "What would it take to build athletics success at a large university in the northeast?? And what sports could we have success in??" They built (or are building) a new Olympic sports complex which seems to be a version of the role Rec Hall plays at Penn State. I doubt they want to spend that money and not have results to show for it.An connection I have said Nebraska and Pitt were making big play for him. For whatever that's worth.![]()

All is quiet from my PSU guy, but I would expect that.
I guess we'll see. Probably won't take that long.
Heather Lyke was previously an Assistant AD at Ohio State. That was her model.I have zero intel but Pitt would be my dark horse pick.

So they've developed a strong WVB program to fit the model. I wouldn't be surprised if they've also decided to open the wallet in an attempt to elevate the wrestling program as well. Or maybe I'm just full of baloney.
The clearinghouse will be gone as soon as they deny one NIL agreement, so the money will still be there for Bo.Basch and Willie talked about it this morning and the one thing they said that is likely true is that it really is not about the money because by decommitting he likely left money on the table as any deals now are limited to what the schools can offer through the settlement and any NIL deals have to be approved through a Clearinghouse. Recruits had to have deals in place prior to June 6th in order for them to be grandfathered in and not go through the Clearinghouse.
Not what I was hearingI think it's Nebraska.
Total guess on my part. I just think it won't be OSU or PSU.Not what I was hearing
